Today is the day he gave birth to a daughter.
I suddenly thought of an article I wrote before, which was also given to a friend of the map people http://bbs.green-web.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6580 )
I watched this movie today and heard a new life The birth news, while feeling happy for the couple, I suddenly thought, what kind of world will we leave to our descendants?
I think the friends of the map people, like me, both love travel and love nature , not only attracted by the beautiful scenery, but also intoxicated by the architecture, culture, characters and customs of various places.
But how long can this continue? We, or can these beauties survive forever?
When our descendants grow up, can they still enjoy such beautiful nature and beautiful world as we do?
If one day, grasslands will become deserts, snow-capped mountains will become barren mountains, and forests will become chimneys;
if one day, the scenery and characters in the photos will become ruins and refugees;
if one day, the prediction of "The Inconvenient Truth" will change. It became a fact, especially the prophecy about the Shanghai we live in. . . . . . .

I know it's a disappointment to say this, but it's a fact.
I think the most important thing in the movie is the analysis of the fact of global warming: not only through the comparison of pictures, but also by citing a large number of scientific data tables and analysis to refute some scientists who say that this is a normal phenomenon in the entire human climate change, we No worries statement. Gore used various data to show that these abnormal changes in atmosphere, moisture and temperature are closely related to human activities, rather than simple natural phenomena. Man-made disasters and their consequences. Gore pointed out that many government reports were fabricated to confuse the public and fool the public. And the government does this, of course, for commercial purposes, to take care of the interests of certain interests. (This is unavoidable in money politics.)
I don't think we should really bury our heads in the sand and pretend to be blind to the things that are related to us, and more importantly, our next generation, or have nothing to do with me. Continue to sit back and relax.
We go all the way, not only for ourselves, but for our descendants, but I don't know how we would feel if we found out that what we did end up shooting ourselves in the foot.
An example is given in the movie to illustrate a phenomenon:
put a frog in boiling water, it will jump out immediately, but put it in cold water, and then slowly boil the cold water, the frog will detect it late, and If I don’t have time to react, I will be burned to death.
This story reminds me of SARS and SARS. In a short period of time, the old habits of Chinese people that have been difficult to change for many years have been changed, and positive actions have been taken. Like a frog in boiling water, in the face of disaster, we act quickly when our lives are threatened; and I think the environmental problems we are facing now are a bit like the frog that was tested. Is it really going to be a disaster before we act? ? I'm afraid that at that time, we will be like frogs slowly boiling water. We will wake up when we are slowly steamed and about to be destroyed. At that time, we will find that there is no way out.
Without further ado, let's sit down, take a good look at this movie, and take action.
For example, when you go out, reduce travel by air. (Because aircraft fly at high altitude, the pollutants it emits have a greater impact on the atmosphere than those emitted on the ground, and are more likely to cause the greenhouse effect and global climate change. According to the report, aircraft emit about 3 100 million tons of greenhouse gases, the greenhouse effect is about 3 times that of the same amount of exhaust gas on the ground. Statistics from the British "Friends of the Earth" organization also show that a large jet airliner travels between Europe and the United States. Carbon dioxide is equivalent to the annual exhaust emissions of a car.)
For example, pay attention to and understand environmental protection information, and make environmental protection more extensive and thorough.
For example, join an environmental protection organization (I joined this: www.green-web.org )
For example, let us engage in environmental protection activities, let us change from map people to earth people, and take on the role of citizens of the world, not just China duty of citizens.
For example, recommending others to watch this movie and this post. . . . . . .
May you and me, you and my children and this earth have a bright future.
It's all in our hands.
When our descendants ask us how we did it at the time, I wish we could smile and say to them, yes, I did my best, I did this, I did that, instead of sitting idly by.
Thanks for reading and spreading.
