An Inconvenient truth, or a great way to be bitter??

I believe that this film, having seen it fully before, can only be fully appreciated if it is seen through to the end, to be able to truly understand the extent/messages that Al Gore is purveying to you as the audience, and quintessentially to the predecessors of the world who are going to have to live with the ever rising levels of global warming, and the effects it is having on the earth around us/them.

I believe that although the film was primarily to educated fellow viewers to understand the effects of global warming and how to possibly halt/adapt the way the people of the world are living as a whole, the fact of Al Gore not receiving the 'title' of American president was portrayed far too much for a film which was based on changing the way people live there day to day lives...

I do believe the film is a very successful way to inform and educate the world as a whole through a successful form of medium, but when the main topics of carbon emissions and melting polar ice caps, suddenly transform into a 'sob story' of what 'should have' happened, shows that Al Gore is more than likely riding a media fuelled band wagon, by getting his own bitterness across, as well as what he believes would not have happened to the world if he was in presidential control of America, but the fact is, he did not make the presidential role, whether it was fixed or not. So the viewers along with the rest of the world will never know whether the promises and theories Al Gore is protesting about would have actually materialised...

In conclusion I believe that the film as a whole is a great way to educate and inform all ages of what is happening/going on in the physical world around them, but the continual bitterness also displayed throughout the film to continually remind the viewer Al Gore did not receive the governing role he strived for, results in a very lacklustre message as a whole.

Making my life more sustainable

There are several things I could come up with, which would aid the sustainability of my life. Such as reducing the amount of time I watch the TV or the time I am on the computer or in the shower in the mornings (electricity usage).
I could also reduce the amount of fuel consumption, and amounts of pollution I create from using my car, by using it less frequently.

But I would personally already find these tasks very hard to achieve, as although in a perfect world I would love to make myself and others live in a more 'eco friendly' environment to aid the world as a whole, but when it comes down to making these wishes into a reality, they are not as easy as you think...
As I would not be able to get to university for a start, without the use of my car, along with the world we now live in, creating the need for high levels of electrical and media usage, such as the computer to socialise/work, and watching the TV to unwind...

Ultimately, I would love to make myself more sustainable, by reducing the amounts of electricity and pollution I create, but practically at this moment in time this is not as possible for me to achieve as I would like.
