What did we just have before Christmas 2008, the famous words Credit crunch.
Here we go, maybe its not easy to sell a item in a supermarked.
If the facts are different from other items, here Im talking about items there can help reducing CO2 in the atmosphere. Before we have designed the earth to something like Mars.
There was a big fight about,getting the first human being to the moon.
But why not a race against save the planet. It is here we all live, we all have a responsibility for our actions. Get it!!!
Instead of just sitting there waiting for your take away pizza or burger you have just ordered.

Yes your right, Im not from United states, Im from Denmark, but have lived the last few years in London!!!!

Climate has changed all throughout history. Why the hell are we worrying about the so-called ‘global warming’ anyway? Shouldn’t we be putting our time and money into something that might be of use.

And Jim, you comment sounds more preachy than anything else on this post. Here’s Derek’s call to action, “In any event, check out the film if you found An Inconvenient truth interesting”(Which I would consider far from preaching, but but that’s just going off hearing what real preaching is like). I think it’s great that Derek brought up this topic on his site, it’s adds credibility to the issue in my mind.

As far as global warming I hear it’s all BS. Of course I haven’t done my homework and am only saying that from what I hear. Not only could I care less but I’m not trying to cash in on the idea.

WANTED: Creative looking for other creatives who reject the notion that being an artist means having to believe in trite, namby-pamby issues of global consciousness and preach sanctimonious sermons to the less enlightened.

Explain how this post could be considered preaching? I see two main points raised: 1) would a film produced and directed by DiCaprio reach younger viewers (as opposed to Gore’s film), and 2) if the film was created to convey a message to the widest audience, why isn’t it free?

* These two points came to mind after sitting through an open discussion after the film.

The global warming movement is as much about acquiring power as is working 30 years of your life preparing to run for President of the United States. Al Gore’s MO didn’t suddenly change when he lost the bid for the White House; he just found another route to influence, control and central planning. Those who don’t understand why environmental policy is a power grab need to do less preaching and more reading, thinking and learning.

Please excuse the harshness of my comment. I love reading creatives’ opinions about graphic and interactive design, but loathe their lame, naive, stereotypical worldviews.

what’s frustrating is how political and social issues have been co-opted by fashionable hollywood-types. no amount of movies or RED campaigns will substitute for the fact that people actually have to participate in order to change things.
