An Inconvenient Truth

Just watched the film, "An Inconvenient Truth." Bravo! Very well presented. Perhaps now this long ignored issue will be given a higher priority.

I was intrigued by what he said about the need to change the habit when the technology changes, and cited the example of war. Could this inspire an end to the war mentality?

And I enjoyed the candor of the quote (of Aldous Huxley, I believe) that it's hard to make a man understand when his job depends on him not understanding.

Cheers to all the CEOs, entrepreneurs and others who do understand and are making it profitable to care about our environment!

If you haven't yet seen the film, pick up the DVD. And if you saw it in the theaters, get the DVD anyway, because there's a great interview with Al Gore - an update on the Crisis.

Let me know what kinds of things you are doing to positively affect the environment.

Today's wisdom: You're probably aware of how detrimental the greenhouse gases from cars are, but the cooking of food accounts for an even higher percent! Specifically, more pollution is created by cooking food than from driving to and from work. Eating more raw foods and not only helps save yourself - you also help save the planet! Awesome.
