Watching the rest of Planet in Peril. One question is... "Is racism really dead in this country???" My response...no. And that question isn't just on a personal level.. it's going with the government. Not just a person's individual opinions... it's going with how the gov't treats people of different ethniticity. (Sp?)

 

The main topic/point of the movies are that Global issues doesn't just affect that area in which the thing happens. It's like a ripple effect. "You can see the scars left by man" - all over the world. The entire world is effected by the tremers pollution and environmental destruction. Polar bears are in danger... Small islands disappear. More people are born... economies boom. We consume and grow more each year. We each leave a mark on this planet... it's just a matter if it's a good mark... or a harmful mark. "What happens in one place, effects us all."

 

Talking about how Lake Chad is disappearing. :(

 

Senator James Inhoffe - Oklahoma : He refused to be interviewed. Pansy -- He think's it's a natural occurance. DERRAHAHAHA. =_= idiot. Global Warming is very real. It's caused (In my opinion) by people...well, not just people.. but people AND natural causes. Because the world may be trying to balance itself out BECAUSE of what we harmful creatures have done to it. Poor thing. >:(

 

 

 

 The Polar Bears- How they're affected.

 

Basically, polar bears can swim. But not forever, and since their icey homes are melting, they must swim further and further to reach the other banks of ice. Eventually, the polar bears run out of steam, and don't find the ice...and drown. They're getting smaller, as it's harder for them to find food - or to survive the hunt. So, Polar bears are in danger... if their homes continue to melt... they eventually will die out. :(
