The Beauty of Nature

The Beauty of Nature

I really enjoyed An Inconvenient Truth. After I watched the movie, I felt that I need to somehow do my part in stopping global warming or help in preserving the Earth. Of course, it is difficult to do any major change, but I thought I could at least do little things. I decided that I should be more cautious in turning off lights, turning off appliances, shorter showers and not leaving water on. Also after watching An Inconvenient Truth, I was more convinced that global warming is happening. It is hard not to believe the facts that Al Gore suggests; how could he possibly “make” up all of that information and show it to millions of people?
I have found four websites, two of which support An Inconvenient, and 2 that are against the arguments. The first website is: http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=YmFiZDAyMWFhMGIxNTgwNGIyMjVkZjQ4OGFiZjFlNjc which is titled “Gorey Truths”. This site has counterpoints for all of Al Gores main points. The second site that I found has various news paper and people that disagree with Al Gore’s statements. These people also say that Gore is exaggerating his arguments. The URL is http://newsbusters.org/node/11377 . The third website is http://tgws.org.uk/ which agrees with the documentary. The site is committed to convincing people to take global warming seriously. Their objective is stated as: “To move the crisis of Global Warming to the very top of everyone's personal and political agendas; above increasing prosperity, health, education and the "War on Terror"”. The final website that I found is also dedicated to stop global warming, with the trailer of An Inconvenient Truth accessible.
In conclusion, I think there are a lot of different ideas when it comes to global warming. Some people totally agree, while others despise the topic. It is difficult to know what is correct, but possibly with more data and scientific analyses, we will find an answer.
