In recent years, there have been a lot of major changes in the world. One of the most important changes that happened is the global warming which has rapidly increased. Global Warming is a term used to describe the changing in the weather in the last few years. In this semester I carried out 6 tasks about the global warming and this is task 7 which is the last task. In this task I will present the arguments about the global warming.
We watched a movie called “An Inconvenient Truth”. The film was presented by former United States Vice President Al Gore and directed by Davis Guggenheim. It was talking about the main reasons of Global Warming and how in time the ice will melt and the quantity of the water will increase the sea level by 25 meters which will cause floods. Hurricane Katrina happened due to the global warming. Mr. Al Gore has presented the presentation at least 1000 times in many different countries to make people aware about the causes of the global warming in our life and how the Arctic life will be affected and suffer. Inconvenient Truth. Dir. Davis Guggenheim.
The Diva has written a positive review for the movie. He is saying that the global warming is a passion for Al Gore, because he was thinking about it when he was in college about 30 years ago, and he said that what Al Gore shows us could happen with the warming trend; it’s enough to make you want to go and throw your car away.

In addition, I measured my carbon footprint which was 2.69 and the average of the carbon footprint in my class is 3.86 which is a very high level.
To reduce my carbon footprint there are many ways. The first way is to reduce my yearly traveling because I’m traveling many times yearly. Another way is to reduce my use of the electricity because I’m using the electricity a lot every day while I’m using my computer surfing the internet. Yet another way to reduce my carbon footprint is to change my car but I really can’t do this. One of the most important ways is to use the public transportation because buses can take more people with one consumption for the energy. http://footprint.wwf.org.uk/.
