It's not a political issue, it's a moral issue

It's not a political issue, it

's a moral one Seemingly correct fallacy. -Mark Twain Some people say that "An Inconvenient Truth" is Gore's political propaganda film, I think these people are too dark. Gore didn't switch to the cause of environmental protection when he made this documentary. Gore has always been the most tireless advocate for promoting environmental protection policies in American politics, and in the 2000 election, environmental protection was one of his governing ideas. , but his environmental awareness was too advanced at the time, and even became a firepower for political enemies to attack and ridicule. If the American public's environmental awareness was as good as it is today, would Bush Jr. have a chance to enter the White House through a court decision? After the defeat in the 2000 election, Gore basically quit the political arena and engaged in environmental protection scientific investigations and environmental science popularization speeches. He inspected the North and South Pole, the Amazon rainforest, and gave more than 1,000 speeches in different countries around the world-theme It's environmental protection, do you think this will be a political show? I also believe that this is not a political issue but a moral one! Back to the movie itself. Gore is charismatic and radiant in his speech, with a strong and magnetic voice (not the type of Mr. Zhao Zhongxiang), passionate speech, just right humor, detailed and objective data and graphs, and beautifully done PPT, called People Hit Festival. The film is interspersed with Gore's personal journey of becoming an environmentalist, as well as the scene of him running around for environmental protection, which makes Gore's behavior more recognized and admired by the audience, and makes his image more plump and tall, perhaps That's why the Psycho-Shady figured out his self-promotion. But from the point of view of the film, interspersed with such a plot can increase the emotional appeal in addition to the boring and cold data stacking, and can more resonate with the audience.











Although there has been debate on the causes of global warming on the Internet, no consensus has been reached. But on February 2 this year, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released the outline of the Fourth Climate Assessment Report. The report, which combines thousands of research results, is the most authoritative scientific report on global warming to date, and provides the most serious warning to mankind about global warming: that this change is "probably" caused by human activities, and human 90% responsible. "This conclusion is supported by the observed widespread warming of the atmosphere and ocean, as well as massive ice melt," the report said.
Although it is somewhat biased in the film to attribute global climate change to the sharp increase in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere (of course, it is not unreasonable, but it is still controversial), but whether climate change is attributed to the sharp increase in carbon dioxide levels, as long as we Human activities must be primarily responsible for climate change, and we must now vigorously promote energy conservation and accelerate the development of sustainable energy.

Some people have a problem with Gore's domineering style of taking the United States as the master of the earth, as if Uncle Sam is the one who saves the earth. This makes it even more puzzling. Now it is taking responsibility, not rewarding merit. Isn't Gore (or the Americans) taking the responsibility for the upper body. Isn't it a responsible big country style? Is it as shameless as a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference of a rising so-called big country to say that "the global warming argument is an interest group hype"?
Member Huo Yuping, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that the global warming argument was hyped by interest groups, and he bluntly said that the government should not reduce energy consumption for this! ( http://it.sohu.com/20070305/n248514771.shtml ), does Gore want to learn from us scientists who have lost their scientific character and sense of social responsibility?

At the end of 2004, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Medium and Long-term Special Plan for Energy Conservation", which described the following paragraph: "Energy consumption per unit of output value. 1,274 tons of standard coal, 2.4 times higher than the world average, 2.5 times, 4.9 times, 8.7 times, and 0.43 times higher than the United States, the European Union, Japan, and India, respectively.”
With such energy efficiency, is there really no need to reduce energy consumption? ?
The words and deeds of these CPPCC members who are not represented by their watches are a loss of scientific character as a scientist, and a loss of social responsibility as a member of the CPPCC. This is not a political issue, but a moral issue!


"The Era of Procrastination , of Half-Measures , of Soothing and Baffling Expedients , of Delays , is Coming to its Close.
In its Place We are Entering a Period of Consequences."
-Sir Winston Churchill
continues procrastination, compromise, and self-comfort The era of expediency is drawing to a close.
Instead, we will start living with its consequences.

"Looking at our earth from 4 billion miles away, it's just a little blue blip. Everything in human history is in this little blip, all the successes, all the failures, all the wars, the famines, all the major developments, This is our only home."

Finally, I suggest friends who haven't seen the film to come and have a look!


The discussion on whether the cause of climate warming is influenced by human activities is attached to the debate on the election blog.

    Unit essay, source of inspiration. It is said that the second-rated documentary is second only to "Fahrenheit 9/11". I don't know what vocabulary is used to describe this documentary. Good-looking, good-looking, really good-looking. Documentary, brainwashing fetish. .

    Don’t mention the political implications, first look at the warnings

An Inconvenient Truth quotes

  • Al Gore: If we accept that this problem is real, maybe it's just too big to do anything about. And, you know, there are a lot of people who go straight from denial to despair without pausing on the intermediate step of actually doing something about the problem.

  • Al Gore: If we use more efficient electricity appliances, we can save this much off of the global warming pollution that would otherwise be put into the atmosphere. If we use other end-use efficiency, this much. If we have higher mileage for cars, this much. And all these begin to add up. Other transport efficiency, renewable technology, carbon capture and sequestration. A big solution that you're gonna be hearing a lot more about. They all add up, and pretty soon we are below our 1970 emissions.
