it did .) But I don’t think I need to care too much about such details, because all scientific issues will involve a large debate, and it is impossible to fully discuss this in the process of popular science.
So after reading it, I wrote a short article that followed Gore's meaning, as follows.
An inconvenient
truth-"An Inconvenient Truth" Afterwards
By Ent,
there are countless truths that have been and are being discovered. There are plain truths, deafening truths, shocking truths, and rebellious truths.
However, few people have discovered the "inconvenient" truth.
Behind countless truths, there are sections of epic stories, telling how it has gone through thousands of hardships and untold hardships, and finally has its own place in the palace, replacing its fallacy predecessor.
However, there are few stories that happen among us.
There are two kinds of truth. One type of truth (usually great truths) says that everything is attracted to the earth, the earth revolves around the sun, the sun is a big fireball that is constantly fusing, and so on.
However, as Holmes said (and was ridiculed by Watson, a standard intellectual): "The earth revolves around the sun, or the sun revolves around the earth, what is the difference to me?"
And another kind of truth It is said that people are transformed from something similar to monkeys. Spraying DDT not only kills the bugs but kills the birds. Of course, the emission of greenhouse gases is making the world significantly warmer.
These are inconvenient truths.
These are the truths that happened around you and me.
As intellectuals, we often have the belief that the truth is everything, and whoever masters the truth will master the future.
However, in reality, the future is determined by history, and even if we know the truth, we may not be able to grasp the true history based on this.
"Truth" is a "phase", an instantaneous cross-section of the appearance of the present world; "history", what is truly experienced in the passage of time, is what writes our future. It doesn't care how much truth is in our minds.
So, this is an inconvenient truth. If you do so, you will have all the inconveniences—the inconveniences of changing your existing lifestyle—needless to say; if you don’t do it, the truth will always be like a handful of dark clouds in the sky, gazing maliciously, Grinning grinningly, lying in ambush, maybe one day they will pour the downpour of history on our heads when we are unprepared, soaking wet.
Prophets are not welcome, not just because they foretell disasters. After all, besides bringing disasters, they usually bring solutions to disasters. The point is, whether we sit back and watch the disaster come or try to stop it, our lifestyle will inevitably change-become more "inconvenient". And people are lazy.
This is what we often overlook when doing research: "Correct" is not always the only standard of action as in the laboratory. In daily life, the principle of "convenience" often occupies a more important position. Why would we rather take the risk of obesity, high blood pressure and liver cirrhosis than get up early to exercise every day? Because struggling to get up early is far less convenient than swallowing a blood pressure medicine every day-although we all know that the two are not the same thing.
In addition, people are always short-sighted and lucky. If it weren't for a disaster and nowhere to go, we wouldn't be so easy to make changes.
Recalling the year of the "millennium bug" at that time, the whole society was in a state of imminent disaster. In fact, many experts later based on the situation in some countries that did not take large-scale preventive measures, even if people did not take any measures, the damage would not be much. After all, the entire human society (at least at the time) was not built on a computer system.
However, the millennium bug is selfless and does not give grace time. It is destined to arrive on time at 0: 0: 0 in 2000. (Even so, no one raised this issue in the public media until 1985. When it attracted the attention of the whole society, it was already a few years away.) A certain threat, even if it is not big, is always better than an unknown threat. The threat of when or if it will come is far more - groundless stories are the lesson.
But, now, looking up at the sky, is it really not worth worrying about?
Therefore, the real way out is not that a certain scientist has found a definitive evidence, that a certain engineer has designed ingenious equipment, or certain countries have enacted all-in-one laws, but whether we—every citizen—can know this The truth, follow the truth. In fact, this is not even a question of "can", but a question of "must", because although it is inconvenient, it is after all the truth around you and me. It is up to you and me to decide whether the truth can be written into history and you and me. The truth about whether it can survive in this world.
