the environment is suffering.........could everyone please do your part to save it....without the earth....even your greatest achievement will not matter...do something...its your part!!!
You look at that river gently flowing by. You notice the leaves rustling with the wind. You hear the birds; you hear the tree frogs. In the distance you hear a cow. You feel the grass. The mud gives a little bit on the river bank. It’s quiet; it’s peaceful. And all of a sudden, it’s a gear shift inside you. And it’s like taking a deep breath and going, 'Oh yeah, I forgot about this'.

— Al Gore in the opening monologue of An Inconvenient Truth....

there has been critics on the over estimation of the damage global warming has done...over estimation of the future effects.....BUT lets not deny..this is an impt issue....procrastination and not taking it seriously has a more detrimental result then exaggerating it...... like what was mentioned by Gore in "An Inconvenient Truth", this is no longer just a environmenta or politicall issue, its a moral issue......
