Global Warming Week

after seeing Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" and "Ice Age 2: The Meltdown", I've been thinking about one worldwide manifestation, global warming. An issue that's pretty huge but usually goes untouched in the mainstream media. To learn the basics of it you should check out "An Inconvenient Truth" which not only discusses the fundamentals, but also goes really in depth. I enjoyed it even though it's basically a two hour flash point presentation that's also a campaign video. You follow Gore through airports and luxury cars as he travels the world discussing an issue that he really cares about. He seems to be pushing himself into contention for the democratic nominee in 2008, we'll see what happens, but until then, if you're ready to learn about something that's really import go see this movie. "Ice Age 2: The meltdown" is a movie that I didn't want to see, but sorta fell in love with. This is another movie that discusses global warming but sorta does it in a different way. we follow a herd of random prehistoric beasts, searching for a colder climate as their old habitat slowly melts away. The characters are adorable, and i'm pretty certain when i say that anyone who sees this will enjoy it. good luck.
