One of the things that concerns me about most of our media and a lot of our movies, is that it paints a picture of ourselves, that makes us look like a pretty average race of beings. Rapists, Murderers, Thieves, Terrorists, etc. On face value it can be depressing, but I think it generates a deeper feeling that we may not even be aware of. When it comes to things like saving that planet, I think with all this negative media we are left with a feeling of why bother? ‘This lousy human race is hardly worth saving!’ Is it true? I don’t think so. I think you will find that we are just ill-informed.
I have seen Al Gore’s ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ 3 times now. Why? I understand the science. I feel the sense of urgency. I don’t feel I need to be reminded of the urgency. I have seen it 3 times because Al Gore makes me proud to be a human being. Through his example I see that we are more than our media will have us believe. He is truly one man that is changing the world. I was both bummed and excited to find that on our first attempt to get AIT out of the video shop, all their copies were out. Wicked! He gives me hope, he gives me faith and he gives us all an opportunity to step up to the challenges ahead. Get properly informed about humanity. See AIT and start reading worldchanging.com
