"The Inconvenient Truth"

Watched "The Inconvenient Truth" last night. What a powerful film. Brings home the urgency of the problem very loud and clear. Getting inspired by the film, I will take public transport wherever and whenever feasible. I wish, they had shown Al Gore riding a bus or the metro instead of driving his car or being driven in a taxi. Private transport is probably a big contributor to global warming. Although everyone complains of traffic snarls and pollution and the other related stuff, the very next day they travel solo in their cars. Unless one sacrifices one's conveniences, the inconvenient truth will loom large.

    Hi Torojee,

    Nice to see you maintaining a blog! I have watched this movie too. I think that if Al Gore just manages to stay away from eating meat, he will do a lot towards going green!

    BTW I recommend reading Friedman's "Hot, Flat and Crowded" on the topic of global warming. It had way more ideas than TWIF, but went unnoticed...

    Ciao,
    Amit
