See this movie. An Inconvenient Truth
Very important topic.
Al Gore does a remarkable job of explaining this crisis in terms that are easy to understand and indisputable. He manages to contextualize the problem of global warming in a way that makes it evient how it affets you.
In truth it didn't tell me any new information - but that's because I've been studying this topic as best I could since the fourth grade. Most everyone else needs to know the consequences that will face us if we don't change the way we are living right now.
I know I might get accused of exaggerating this problem - just watch the movie. Global Warming is very real and vey much going to affect us all in our lifetimes - it already is.
Right now, it is indisputable that that the ice caps are melting more than they have in the past 650,000 years. Not a single expert disagrees on this point. This dispels the myths that global warming is cyclical, can't affect the world drastically, or not a direct consequence of our own human impact.
