Carbon Footprint

Carbon Footprint is the house green gasses that we produce by our life. Humans produce thousands tons of carbon every year. This blog will show some way to correct the level of Carbon in the air.

We can measure our Carbon footprint from different web sites, one of them is HeroesoftheUAE.com. This web site asked us several questions about our live and it majored the percentages of the carbon footprint that we consume, also the footprint.wwf.org.uk web site, which collected the percent of food, items, transport, and home stuff that we use in our life.

I got 1.0 carbon footprint from HeroesoftheUAE.com although my classmates got a higher band from me which are 2.3 and 2.9 carbon footprint because there have a bigger family than my family. Also from footprint.wwf.org.uk I got 2.7 carbon footprints. This time I was in the middle. My classmates got 2.1 and 3.4. That because my family buys more stuff than we need.

Overall, the carbon footprint is affecting our life in big ways. So we have to save it and try to decrease the level of carbon footprint.

An Inconvenient Truth Argument

In An Inconvenient Truth, the movie talks about global warming which the earth faces. The movie talks about the problem of global warming and some possible solutions for it. Some people like Al Gore’s talk and the others do not. In this blogs, I will talk about some positive ideas and some negative ones.

First as a positives idea for An Inconvenient Truth, Al Gore hangs on with his idea. So he attracts people's attention. As Paul Arendt said in his Reviewed in BBC films website, Al Gore was not a movie star, but he does a lot to have a really great slide show.

Now let us look at why An Inconvenient Truth got negative views, the film is not accurate as Gregg Easterbrook said in the thinksmart.typepad.com website. The movie estimated the sea level, and some other things. So, Al Gore wants to make the things bigger to take care of it for all people.

As a conclusion, I agree with Al Gore, because he has a big view in global warming, so he wants people to take care of the planet. No matter what others say about him. We have to preserve the earth to live in it for a better life.
