An Inconvenient Truth

My wife and I just saw An Inconvenient Truth at the cinema.

If you have any questions about global warming, and want to actually get some facts on the issue rather than dumbed down “opinion”, go see “An Inconvenient Truth”.

The most shocking item for me: Out of hundreds of peer-reviewed scientific articles, zero question the science. Out of the popular press, 53% of the articles question the science. Why do people deny global warming? Because if they admit the truth of it, they would have to do something about it. Now.

For me, it seems that most people are so far from reality that it will take the Greenland ice sheet melting, or one of the Antarctic ice sheets melting, raising sea levels and displacing hundreds of millions of people before the majority start to do something about it. Sigh.

Myself, I’d rather we took action before London and the South-East of England is flooded.
