the real inconvenient truth is the automakers are slowly but surely coming up with flex fuel and higher mpg cars and trucks by the dozens. and h2s, escalades and other ultra large suvs can't be given away at the dealers.
how about we as consumers buy less plastics, recycle more, spend less. i like how in pittsburgh and even east st. louis you can hardly count the number of smoke stacks from big business. are those regulated?
and isn't there a 24 hour smog in china cause it's so polluted and overpopulated?
yes. america is to blame. for everything.

this is a very importend movie, I hope it make even the dumdest to understand that we have to change our pattern. the thing is also, if everyone would do something, it would have a major effect.

get back to work Kona or you're fired!
Haven't seen the film yet but I do plan on it very soon. The past two days in TO are all the proof you need for global warming.

hhaha...this movie is good to raise big questions, however why are we surprised, we all know that we are going to shit. It's just a matter of time. World has been going to shit for the last 100 years at least and now we are surprised. As for nature, we already know who to blame right. MONEY and corporations.
I personally think we'll get hit by some space shit sooner then we'll get sinked. We are overdue for Judgment day.
I freakin' can't wait for it to happen and put us our of our misery. At least I'll be driving a V8 and paying my gas guzzler tax :)
Yoohoooo!

haha kona.
no doubt visia, it hit 92 here over the weekend, in may.
this all could be cyclic, but everybody knows that pollution is fucking bad.

but no praise to the pos effects, like your job, your social life, the ability to get away or go on a date
these things all help define who you think you are as a person

there's about a 10 -1 split between those who consume and those who simply don't have anything to consume

at any given time there are hundreds of millions of cars running somewhere in the world, can we really think that this wont have some kind of negative effect on our environment?
not to mention all the commercial polution.
WE need to realize that we are poisining ourselves and this earth.

godammit your "blaming america" defense runs deep.
How about the strongest nation on earth does something about it instead of screaming "well mexico has shit storms" or some other finger pointing to justify it?
start with higher emissions standards instead of propping up corporate friendly ex ceo's in agencies like the EPA.
Do you think this administration is more friendly to the environment or more friendly to corporations?
How much money do you make by energy companies having higher profits at the expense of the environment?
I'm no tree hugger, but this country needs someone to take the fucking leadership role instead of toeing the line.

so those smog clouds that hang over every major city on the globe are good for the people then?
kids born with autism rates are up
kids born with asthma rates are up
mercury in the water is up
up and above the whole global warming argument, pollution needs to be put in check.
Makes me think of the smoking bans in bars and restaurants. If pollutants made your clothes smell bad, people would be changing laws in every city in america.

garrett, any idea who consumes the products produced in china/india. How about globalization? Those factory jobs in china/india used to be here, in your beloved america. americans producing goods for americans. The reason why many companies have been investing in foreign factories is to get around US emmision standards and pay a lower wage. Thats a double whammy, American corporate interests -2.
So yes it is our fault
