That's very wise. I didn't base my opinion on the movie either.
So, how are you going to form your opinion? Are you going to form an opinion at all, or treat this as a 'Someone Else's Problem'?
I've been reading about global warming since childhood, and for the last couple of years I've experienced it's effects first-hand when going outside.
Now, I'm currently reading the book 'The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People' by Stephen Covey (it's at the top of
Steve's list). The first habit is being pro-active, it goes about being part of the solution instead of the problem, and focussing your efforts on things within your circle of influence.
Seeing the movie made me realize that the problem of global warming is actually both within my circle of concern and within my circle of influence, so I'm trying to act pro-actively and to be part of the solution rather than the problem. Ignoring this problem won't make it go away.
