I think Global Warming is a HUGE deal throughout the world and people need to stop passing it off as some stupid weather thing. Something needs to be done and we can't solve anything by sitting down at a long table and throwing data around. Other countries have accepted Global Warming and started to do things to change it. Australia has been in a 7 YEAR drought and now they are starting to hire scientists and other people to do something about it. Why can't we? This is supposed to be the most developed nation in the world and all we can do it produce a couple of movies about it and protest? The effects of global warming may or may not affect us but our great-great-great-great grandchildren will have to pay the price for our ignorance.
