Al Gore is very HYPOCRYTE. He himself has huge houses that consume lots of energy just to maintain them. Plus he flies on a private jet promoting the movie. Anyway, I'm not against the idea, I think it's really great if all of us are aware of the problems and really willing to do their parts. It bothers me that someone just keeps blaming the others while himself wasting lots of energy everyday. By the way, it's not even certain that "Global warming" exists, scientists can't agree on that either. It's really just a "Theory/Belief" so far. Some years ago people were crazy about "Ice age" too. So, to me it's kind of a trend or something for wealthy people who have lots of free time. Anyway,I agree that we should try to do whatever we can, just not worry too much. What will happen, happens. Everything keeps changing all the time and that's why the Buddha was tired of it and he finally found the greatest way to get out!
P'Tye, (^__^) More information on Kyoto treaty; Out of the whole world, only twenty something countries must reduce the CO2, the rest don't have to.(Like China and India produce tons of CO2 and other pollutions every single day. And China just admits they problably won't be able to meet air pollution standard by the Olympics in 2008-which's part of the agreement for Olympics hosting. Most days in Bejing has 10 times more pollution than western countries, and in bad days it even goes up to50 times!) Plus, some countries (like France and Germany)that signed the treaty just violated the rules.(What's good is that?) I respect the countries that is truthful and honest enough to admit\\t that it's not realistic for them. It might be true that the us produces the most amount of CO2 but it's very big country (9,631,420 SQ KM) with lots of people (298,444,215) Thailand is 514,000 SQ KM big and that takes about 187 countries the size of Thailand to have the same size of the us. I'm more than a million percent sure that if there were 187 countries like Thailand, they will produce A LOT more pollution than the us. I'm not protecting the us, I just can see that they're very efficient in using energy. And for sure far more than any other countries, especially Asian and Eastern Europian countries.(Well, also Africa countries I guess)
More information on Global Warming: When they consider global warming, they cut out "water vaporation" which is the big factor in trapping the heat. Actually they cut out many factors, why? It's just too difficult to consider every factor, better just pick whatever they want to believe, right?(For example; they don't consider carbonsulphide, the gas produced by cars that reflects the heat, so actually cooling the globe.And this exact gas caused people to believe "global cooling or ice age" before.) The real and true science: The earth is AN OPEN SYSTEM. Do you recall from highschool what that means?- It means you can never predict the result!!! I think global warming isn't scientific by whatever mean. In the movie, 5 big hurricanes hit the us (last year), global warming's believers were so excited they thought these surely caused by global warming. They assured it was going to get worse and worse, the end of the world is coming. THE FACT:This year, no hurricane at all, I think they're pretty disappointed about that. One more thing, I live in San Francisco, this year the water in the Bay area is few degrees cooler, the GW believers can't explain why. They just try to say "Maybe ice is melting so that makes the water cooler!!!" Oh, my gosh...I can't believe they even think that! GW is like a religion, it's what they want to believe. This year the snow in New York set a record, more than 1 meter in a week. The GW says" The heat actually caused the snow" Oh my Lord Buddha!!! Then Thailand and Africa would have had tons of snow all year long! I think Buddhism is much more scientific than GW.
Still I want to insist, I agree it would be great if we can reduce pollutions. I agree CO2 and other danger gas are bad (But I don't think it has anything to do with GW) I absolutely agree we should do whatever we can to make this world a better place. (^__^)
P'Tye, I guess I clicked submit twice, please delete one for me, thanks. Going to bed...Nighty night
อัล กอร์ ปรากฏตัวบนเวทีด้วยบุคคลิกที่เป็นกันเอง และพกพาอารมณ์ขันเรียกเสียงหัวเราะแก่ผู้ฟังโดยบอกว่า " I'm Al Gore. I used to be the next president of the United States" แต่สิ่งเขาตั้งคำถามต่อมา พร้อมกับนำเสนอข้อมูลและต้นเหตุของภัยพิบัติที่เกิดในรอบทศวรรษ พลันเสียงในห้องสัมมนาเงียบกริบ สลับกับเสียงถอนลมหายใจ
ถึงแม้จะมีภาพยนตร์จากฮอลลีวู้ดหลายเรื่องที่นำเสนอภัยพิบัติทางธรรมชาติ โดยเฉพาะเรื่อง The Day After Tomorrow และ The Core แต่ทั้งหมดนั้นยังอิงความเป็นดราม่ามากกว่า "ข้อเท็จจริง" แต่สำหรับ An Inconvenient Truth เป็นภาพยนตร์ที่นำเอารายงานข่าวหายนะภัยที่เกิดขึ้นทั่วโลกผสมกับข้อมูลจริงเชิงอุตุนิยมวิทยาที่ไม่อาจปฏิเสธได้
The "Great Man" theory of history is usually attributed to the Scottish philosopher Thomas Carlyle, who wrote that "the history of the world is but the biography of great men." He believed that it is the few, the powerful and the famous who shape our collective destiny as a species. That theory took a serious beating this year. To be sure, there are individuals we could blame for the many painful and disturbing things that happened in 2006. The conflict in Iraq only got bloodier and more entrenched. A vicious skirmish erupted between Israel and Lebanon. A war dragged on in Sudan. A tin-pot dictator in North Korea got the Bomb, and the President of Iran wants to go nuclear too. Meanwhile nobody fixed global warming, and Sony didn't make enough PlayStation3s.
But look at 2006 through a different lens and you'll see another story, one that isn't about conflict or great men. It's a story about community and collaboration on a scale never seen before. It's about the cosmic compendium of knowledge Wikipedia and the million-channel people's network YouTube and the online metropolis MySpace. It's about the many wresting power from the few and helping one another for nothing and how that will not only change the world, but also change the way the world changes.
The tool that makes this possible is the World Wide Web. Not the Web that Tim Berners-Lee hacked together (15 years ago, according to Wikipedia) as a way for scientists to share research. It's not even the overhyped dotcom Web of the late 1990s. The new Web is a very different thing. It's a tool for bringing together the small contributions of millions of people and making them matter. Silicon Valley consultants call it Web 2.0, as if it were a new version of some old software. But it's really a revolution.
And we are so ready for it. We're ready to balance our diet of predigested news with raw feeds from Baghdad and Boston and Beijing. You can learn more about how Americans live just by looking at the backgrounds of YouTube videosthose rumpled bedrooms and toy-strewn basement rec roomsthan you could from 1,000 hours of network television.
And we didn't just watch, we also worked. Like crazy. We made Facebook profiles and Second Life avatars and reviewed books at Amazon and recorded podcasts. We blogged about our candidates losing and wrote songs about getting dumped. We camcordered bombing runs and built open-source software.
America loves its solitary geniusesits Einsteins, its Edisons, its Jobsesbut those lonely dreamers may have to learn to play with others. Car companies are running open design contests. Reuters is carrying blog postings alongside its regular news feed. Microsoft is working overtime to fend off user-created Linux. We're looking at an explosion of productivity and innovation, and it's just getting started, as millions of minds that would otherwise have drowned in obscurity get backhauled into the global intellectual economy.
Who are these people? Seriously, who actually sits down after a long day at work and says, I'm not going to watch Lost tonight. I'm going to turn on my computer and make a movie starring my pet iguana? I'm going to mash up 50 Cent's vocals with Queen's instrumentals? I'm going to blog about my state of mind or the state of the nation or the steak-frites at the new bistro down the street? Who has that time and that energy and that passion?
The answer is, you do. And for seizing the reins of the global media, for founding and framing the new digital democracy, for working for nothing and beating the pros at their own game, TIME's Person of the Year for 2006 is you.
Sure, it's a mistake to romanticize all this any more than is strictly necessary. Web 2.0 harnesses the stupidity of crowds as well as its wisdom. Some of the comments on YouTube make you weep for the future of humanity just for the spelling alone, never mind the obscenity and the naked hatred.
But that's what makes all this interesting. Web 2.0 is a massive social experiment, and like any experiment worth trying, it could fail. There's no road map for how an organism that's not a bacterium lives and works together on this planet in numbers in excess of 6 billion. But 2006 gave us some ideas. This is an opportunity to build a new kind of international understanding, not politician to politician, great man to great man, but citizen to citizen, person to person. It's a chance for people to look at a computer screen and really, genuinely wonder who's out there looking back at them. Go on. Tell us you're not just a little bit curious.

I Need To Wake Up-Melissa Etheridge
Have I been sleeping?
Ive been so still
Afraid of crumbling
Have I been careless?
Dismissing all the distant rumblings
Take me where I am supposed to be
To comprehend the things that I cant see
Cause I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Somethings got to break up
Ive been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now
And as a child
I danced like it was 1999
My dreams were wild
The promise of this new world
Would be mine
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth
To listen to an inconvenient truth
That I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Somethings got to break up
Ive been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now
I am not an island
I am not alone
I am my intentions
Trapped here in this flesh and bone
And I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Somethings got to break up
Ive been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now
I want to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Oh, Somethings got to break up
Ive been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now
