Please take the pledge that you will see the movie on opening w/e and bring a bunch of friends. We need to save this planet and make Al Gore's efforts historic.

3. No, but I took his carbon footprint test, and I'm terrible.
I did both BP's and the one created for the film's website, which is FAR more detailed than BPs.

According to BP, my footprint is way below average, but the one on the film's website had me way above average. Based on the questions, I got the impression that BPs is configured to give you a "better" answer. That figures.

The one on the film's website seemed a lot more realistic in terms of what it asked for consumption purposes.

I will definitely see the film. The stories about the drowning polar bears and melting ice caps makes me ill. Heck, I learned about permafrost and the importance of the refreeze YEARS ago in school, and now we have Inuit and Eskimo villages sinking. I didn't vote for this crap, why do I have to pay for the mindlessness and "live for today" attitude of others?

I'm bitter, I admit.

5. I'm living at 1/3 the footprint of most
I don't have car & live in 550sq feet. It has to be REALLY cold in Denver for me to use the heat but I am guilty of loving air conditioning. I get physically ill from hot weather.

4. Watch It!
This is a nicely cleaned up version of his Global Warming Presentation. Very nice. I can not wait for the movie. I will take at least a half a dozen people to it as soon as it is in the area.
