Thought people would find this interesting. Its a film by Al Gore (once ran for president of the USA).

Very very good and i would highly recommend it. Its about climate change and how we are already in serious problems, I would hope that you take the time one day to rent it from your local video store. It is a documentary format, and is very powerful and informative.

Here is a link to the website: http://www.climatecrisis.net/

My favorite quote to:  "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it" - Upton Sinclair

Regards,

Your going to be hearing about things like this a lot from me - as i will be studying Environmental Sciencce and Climatology and university.

Spot on Sotiris!

On BBC News they said that down near dorset, it's now getting so hot, they can grow Kiwi fruits! There's this crab in florida, which has now come here, because it's the right temperature, and I think there's a bird from Turkey which has moved here, since it's too hot in Turkey.

I'll try to find that report on the BBC website

Well, right now New Zealand is directly underneath the hole in the ozone layer... (which has gotten much bigger) so the government and various cancer agencies have paid a lot of money in advertizing the use of sunscreen and staying in the shade. It's a lot hotter here!

Really? Here, it's hot! Not 30 degrees hot though, I mean hot for winter lol. Haven't had any snow whatsoever. It's still warm enough to wear a short sleeved shirt I'd say.
