Well, now I tell you that this man simply known as Al Gore is a former vice president of the United States and, after running against Bush Jr. for president, became the first candidate to be declared defeated by a judge.
After more than ten years, I guess even most of the Native Americans have almost forgotten about him. After all, little Bush has not worked for several years; not to mention that across the ocean, the dead house is like my fellow. Therefore, the documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" (Chinese translation of "Inconvenient Truth") shot in 2006 has really reduced the publicity of Gore to a minimum and can be ignored.
There is no way this man can give me any benefit, so if he says a few words in support of his environmental protection philosophy, there should be no partiality. So I want to ask those of you who think Gore has a plan behind it: Does he still want to run for president after making this film? Let's see if Obama can understand. Offending those oil companies that rely on old energy to survive and have deep pockets, can he gain any substantial benefits? Of course, I don't think he is really a wholehearted person. At least he should be the spokesperson for the interests of new energy, right? Or do you want to keep your name in the world of Qing history?
But I couldn’t help but doubt myself. After all, in the old days and the dynasty, I always doubted everything with conspiracy theories. I was no longer pure because I was not pure, so I didn’t believe that there really was such a pure kind in the world. People who contribute to the concepts of humanity and environmental protection.
A lot of the above, back to the documentary An Inconvenient Truth itself. It takes one of Gore's thousands of public environmental protection speeches as the main line and background, and through a large amount of data, pictures, news records, and personal experience, tells us what the earth on which we live is facing:
global warming, carbon emissions exceeding history The record has grown exponentially, resulting in an increasing number of catastrophes that endanger the world, such as tsunamis, tornadoes, droughts and floods, affecting the survival, reproduction, and distribution of species around the world (for example, our favorite polar bear, Knut, his relatives and friends living in the Arctic. Friends will not be able to go ashore due to melting glaciers, so they will be exhausted from swimming);
There are many people who don't care about the life and death of animals and plants; but for human beings, in a few years, you will no longer see the snow on Mount Kilimanjaro in the famous Hemingway (Hemingway) writings when you travel, and you are not interested in travel. People shrug their shoulders casually, what's the big deal; but this is not
the biggest threat. Next, they will face a sharp drop in the production of staple food and a shortage of water resources. Can the problem of eating and drinking, which are fundamental to human survival, also be shrugged?
What's even more terrifying is that the land will be covered by the sea water after the glaciers dissolve. In the future, Beijing and Hong Kong will be the beautiful underwater world under Hayao Miyazaki's "City in the Sky" Lapuda, dear!
Do you think the documentary is alarmist? Gore gave a very interesting + thought-provoking example. In the past, cigarette advertisements boasted that even doctors like to smoke this stuff, but now it has been proved that smoking causes cancer. Let's look further afield!
I've written so much as if I'm an environmentalist. I'm so sorry, I'm not even an environmentalist. To tell the truth, I don’t want humans to finish playing early, so as not to continue to waste, pollute the earth, and hurt other creatures~~~ I don’t know when it started, I think human beings are a bug created by the earth and nature unintentionally. When he had a higher level of wisdom and was able to make tools, he gradually lost control and became a wild ass. He changed the normal ecological laws of nature, acted recklessly for his own selfish desires, and recklessly persecuted other creatures, whether plants, animals, or even the environment. When human beings are too arrogant, they even think that they can "man will conquer the sky", which is a fart. Let's see how the dinosaurs that can step on you to ashes with one foot die collectively. It's overbearing to say these four words.
The only time I feel heartache for the demise of humanity is that there will be no one playing and listening to Bach music, and this wonderful music will disappear. No kidding, I was really worrying about it~~~
Of course, there has always been a debate in the scientific community that greenhouse gas emissions are causing global warming. On the contrary, Gore believes that the earth is too big, and the impact of human beings is negligible; or the earth is entering a warming period, and the current warming is normal; or the earth will enter an ice age, and the global temperature drop will offset those extra. heat and so on. Such a serious and tense scientific problem, leave it to the scientists, anyway, I can't understand it, and I can't follow it. But what I understand is that the earth's environment is really bad! Let’s ignore the issue of whether it is warm or not. At least China is facing heavy metal pollution of the land, which means that most of the rations are polluted; the ecosystem has been severely damaged, and the rivers are too poisonous to drink if they don’t dry up. Eat this kind of land The food people bred will not die well; the animals and plants are invaded by humans, their survival is facing a test, and several kinds of them will be extinct every day... Since it is impossible for a huge comet to hit the earth at present, people have to continue to live, so they have to act at this moment. Get up and cherish the only comrade on earth that can make you survive in the vast universe.
In fact, as long as each of us ordinary people contributes our own strength and gathers sand into a tower, billions of people around the world will always help the earth's environment, right? This is also what I support Gore the most, regardless of the political interests, economic interests, and scientific theories. What we need is to act, to do seemingly trivial things at our fingertips.
An Inconvenient Truth has a low attendance rate at the Beijing Film Archive, only half of the theater. However, in the final music stage of the film, only two or three people walked, and other audience members quietly watched the environmental protection tips at the end of the film. It can be seen that everyone has been touched, and they are seriously learning what they can do.
Like the subtitles at the end of the movie, I would recommend everyone to watch this movie, and I hope he can make you act.
Also:
01. In my opinion, the documentary tries to portray Gore as an environmental hero with a political tragedy. Many American presidents dislike him, oil companies oppose him, and the election also fails. He fights like a lone wolf. The last scene Too sensational, leaving his stalwart back alone in the black shadow~~~ It's good to just talk about environmental protection, and there are too many election issues, which is criticized by others.
02. At the beginning, it was said that he completely changed because of his son's car accident. This kind of American sensationalism reminds me of "House" Season 1. The new chairman of the hospital said at the shareholders' meeting that his father's Alzheimer's made him determined to change, haha, doesn't it look familiar?
03. This animation of melting ice cream is made by the American animation "Futurama" that I like very much. It is very kind to watch!
04. This film will never be shown in mainland China. It mentions that the former Soviet Union used political oppression and threatened scientists to modify data to meet political needs; the two parties in the United States cooperated to destroy communism, production, and ism. The audience's laughter is worth pondering, haha. There is a very subtle point. The producer at the end of the credits wrote that if you have any suggestions for environmental protection, you can write to the councillors. If there are no councillors who support you, you can run for election yourself! Immediately there was laughter.
In addition, in addition to those that everyone knows, write my environmental protection tips:
01. We face all kinds of receipts every day, supermarket shopping receipts, credit card bills, invoices, etc., do not throw them away easily. The backs and blanks of them can be used. I will assemble a stack of various receipts that have accumulated to a certain amount and use them as sticky notes. The original waste can be reused;
02. Cut the used large envelopes, The noodles can be used to wrap the book cover;
03. It is best to keep some plants at home, which can not only beautify the environment, purify the air, but also help the environment: first, the water for washing vegetables and rice will not be easily thrown away and can be used for watering flowers; second Come, the unused vegetable roots, leftover fruit cores, peeled peels, etc. in the kitchen waste can be used to cultivate the soil of the flowerpot, and they will become the source of humus when they are buried in the soil. This not only reduces garbage, but at the same time, organic fertilizer is better than chemical fertilizer in that it will not make the soil compact;
04. When washing your face and hands, put a basin to collect water, which can be used to flush toilets and mops;
05. Washing clothes by hand or washing machine, The water left over from rinsing can be directly used for brushing shoes and school bags; if there is nothing to wash, it is poured into a bucket and used to flush toilets and mops.
06. Don't buy unnecessary things. Don't chase fashion too much. For example, if the mobile phone is worn out and then replace it, it will save money, and it will help environmental protection and reduce unnecessary waste. Try to buy sturdy, good quality durable goods, it doesn't matter if you spend a little more money, it will last a long time.
I can only think of these for now ^^
