    the global warming is a global phenomenon that affect us all.
    over the last few years we have noticed the difference and alteration of climates around the globe and it is something really disturbing… the human beings are the main cause of this catastrophe, but we can also do something to stop all this is a matter of conscience. We can cooperate in preventing, for example not using spray, save energy, not to buy packaged products, avoid using hot water, using the cars less, objects harmful to the atmosphere.

    However, people do not reconsider and continue contaminating and in the near future our children can not breathe in peace ....

    What worries me most of all this, is that we ourselves we are destroying our own planet , without realizing the consequences that can cause pollution to the ozone layer. I think if we go well, we will finish destroying our own planet, and would grow sea level, where some countries disappear; would increase respiratory illnesses, there would be no food (shortage); would increase the intensity and frequency of rainfall, hurricanes and tornadoes; and I think one of the solutions is to use cars less, recycle paper and glass; and more caring environment, without throwing garbage everywhere.

    I think anybody would like to go through all these misfortunes, so we have to take care of our planet... do not you think?

    The global warming like all we know it is an increase of the temperature drastically
    - what mas I cannot stand of us, the cúal we can change to be able to correct this problem it is first that nothing be aware especially what spending passing this one, and to solve this we have to begin for help to the environment with things very easy peroo that help too like to save light, not to consume energy in things inecesarias, or maybe to spend less, in addition we can use the things that mas consume energy to use them in tomorrow since the consumption of the energy is minor in tomorrow that in the evening this when to the collapse

    - One of the images that mas impressed me was in that they show us a desert landscape, without life, dead man, and then they show us like it was former a beautiful landscape full of life, with water, pasture, flores.y all that happens for THE GLOBAL WARMING which we have a great responsibility. Between other images that impressed me very much as that of the chunk of ice when it falls down for the fierce warming that exists in these moments

    The thing that worries me most is, we as human beings even knowing the damage we have done to our beloved earth not we become aware of our actions and we continue acting in the same way, hurting ourselves and even more so to our children, besides another thing that worries me is the fact that more innocent people “pay duck”; while the guilty don’t do something to change it.

    In what i fear most is the catastrophe that global warming causes as the melting of the poles, the greenhouse effect, the hole in the ozone layer, the disappearance of eternal ice (glacier), etc.. Making our world a world ugly and badly to live only because we don’t take conscience, besides, I afraid that “end of the world” become coming soon, like is it written in the Holy Bible I think this, because I’m a catholic

    THANKS to what I could watch in the movie i am surprised with the reality of the global warming and its dangerousness, I think we should take measures in this matter.because if we dont do something to avoid this phenomenon its going to be worse and the quality of life of the future generations problably wont be pleasant.

    this documentary really affected me becauseit show us that men is so dangerous for our planet, there are many changes affecting the world and this problem are extremely affecting the temperature, because of greenhouse effect there are many natural disaster which are affecting our world and our life too and are killing many people, finally this documentary show us that this changes will be present in the future and will be more natural disaster.

    Teacher, I saw a video in youtube that I believe that it is correctly, like that that here this my task...


    To my in personal the problem that more worries me is that the north pole is melted for two big reasons...

    The first is because many animals that there live not have through a home and disappear of the world, you prop as it is said, already polar bears have died and to don't like my that these animals go out...

    And the second, but not less importantly, is that to increase considerably the level of the sea, making the areas of countries flooded where the populations are high, what the to make emigrating and increase the population density, diminishing the quality of life

    It is necessary to create conscience on this topic, I like that the task is of this

    I believe that each person could contribute to improve the problem of global warming, there are very simple things we can do, such as not using aerosol products, walk instead of going by car, and in my opinion the most important thing is planting trees since the deforestation is a very big factor in global warming.
    I also think it's a little disappointing to think that although we do many things to prevent global warming, the damage is too big, but it can help to ensure that damage does not continue to grow.

    I believe that really I am scared by the global warming, because the problem is of each of the inhabitants of this planet, but we are so selfish, that we see as the living conditions are finished and we do not do anything. But the solution must begin with us, because with small actions probably this catastrophe will not bring worse problems.

    the global warming is a problem in which all people are precente the world, each part of the problem is that today affect us this much, and ourselves that we have in our hands the solution.
    One problem is more precente climate change drastically and that affects both animals and humans, forests, glaciers enter others.
    that is why we have the solution and each must be able to put something on their part so we can save our planetay live in a better world in peace and armony.

    In my opinion I believe that the global warming brings big consequences for the entire planet, and therefore must be aware and to put of our part to diminish all these problems and to live better.-

    On the other hand... what most called my attention of this documentary it was the destructions
    and consequences that the global warming brings to the earth, in different places, and how affects the nature, so much animals ass like persons. I believe that we are the major persons in charge of all that... I am agreed with what the master of the video says :) since it is necessary to do something against the global warming because undoubtedly it is something bad for all, and in a future it can bring consequences even worse.

    Undoubtedly It is necessary to create conscience on the global warming.

    I believe that the global warming is a very serious problem for all the persons around the world because the responsibility is shared.
    I believe that we must protect the planet for future generations

    the situation that more called atention is the demage due to toward the animals specially the case of the "polar bear" because suffer a lot for cause of a
    irresponsability our.

    is difficult to be able to do something but exist many habits with which we can help for example: to save energy and to take care of the environment, recycle paper among other acts.

    I believe that it was a very interesting movie, since it shows the reality that nowadays lives the planet. The most surprising thing is that who caused all this, is the human being. It is surprising as the figures of pollution they have been growing the latter years, since the levels of the sea have grown for the melting of the Antarctic ices, etc. Undoubtedly this reality is afraid.

    Well... everything on the documentary is to worry about, but some of the scenes that disturbed me the most were those of the ice melting in places as the Kilimanjaro(the fact of see how it was and how is nowadays), the animated demonstration of how the polar bears die because of the same ice melting, and the storms. Storms has always scared me and even if in a place like Chile we are safe of them you don't know what could happen with the Climatic change.

    Some commentaries I've read says that Al Gore made this film just to make a political propaganda, that some of the facts that he showed on it are not real... mmmm.. does it really, really care? I mean maybe it cares but... Is so difficult to take care of our planet? If we only remain the idea of that those facts are not real, when something really big happens it will be too late.

    Small changes on our habits can help our planet and ourselves.

    The globalization is a process which happens for many steps, in these there are some of them that are not beneficial they harm largely.
    The globalization tries to join the world or something similar, when this does wiil be a major disorder because not all the countries consist of the same cultures, ideologies etc.

    The global warming is a phenomenon that in the latter time giving this one much of which to speak, as the years went by it has transformed in a very important phenomenon for the whole world. The human beings we are the principal culprits of this catastrophe, and as well as we are capable of creating it, we themselves are those that we can avoid that this continues growing, for example we can avoid contaminate, already be with the cars, you make, cigars, aerosols, etc. This might prevent the solar beams from defrosting the icebergs and other catastrophes.
    Regardless what has happened lately the persons are not aware of the hurt that they do.

    I think that the global warming is really a worrying topic we know the changes that our planet has every day but we see them like so distant. The image that impressed me was when the change of the ices appeared from a yesterday to a today it is one of so many things that I am called myself the attention a thing takes other one. Is incredible that all that to been caused by we themselves. Today all of us are done called to improve and to take care of our planet.

    It is incredible that the persons are not aware of the changes that the land has through the fault of us.
    Changes that little by little estan destroying beautiful species
    Day after day they die animal for small conscience that the persons have and it is so easy to take care of the planet in order that this does not happen And this way to prevent these animals from paying for something that they did not do and to take care of the planet for the new generations.
    It is very important that we all know the important thing that is to take care of our home...

    I think that Cristian Romero has reason about that more innocent people "pay duck".
    The ambientals problems are a topic that it doesn't get considered too much.
    I think that Al Gore is a persons very brave, because it exists people that simply they are not interested the topic and this it harms it for you presidential candidacy.
    mmmmmmmmm... We have that look after the environment if not in a future not very distant our planet won't exist.
    One of the things that more I scare is that increases the level of the waters of the sea.
    It caught my attention is the iceberg tumble down.

    in what I most fear of global warming is melting of the polar ice and eternal ice, because it will end up with the few resources that we have water and also sea levels would go up and we can die because we can be under the water. What worries me is that we do nothing to prevent it, but humanity as we continue to pollute the planet and damaging the planet for future generations

That is to say, we destroy our own home.

    - The problem worries me most is the air pollution, because those most affected are children and the elderly. They do not deserve to be damaged in this way, as they have the right to live healthily.

    - I'm scared to air pollution, because something as basic as breathing is becoming a threat to health. I hope we take conscience of the item, in order to live in a better world.

    Despite not having seen the video of "An unconvenient truth". I can say that what worries me most is the influence of man in all these disasters and often unconsciously, the tremendous damage to the ozone layer and the global warming due to gas emissions generally of the big industries, and the consequences that are in sight, greats destructions by climate change, deaths and illnesses among others.

    And to what I fear most is to the previously I mentioned, the global warming, where we do not know what awaits us nor when will happen, and we realize when it is too late.
    That is why I join with the recommendations before given by my companions, to help in something and decrease the effects of global warming among others.

    We have conscience and cooperate to improve this world!

    I think that all that shows us this documentary serves to realize that really the man, ever time, destroys the planet much more, perhaps, without realizing or perhaps, does not want to realize. In the documentary, will see how glaciers are disappearing, and that's impressive, to each of us living on this planet must import this issue, and not let pass or believe that is an exaggeration, if each man puts his part to help, perhaps we can decrease slightly this big problem.

    The Earth is suffering our irresponsability, we are not taking care of our environment : we are causing the damage to our ocean, Earth, sky and our natural resources. Everytime we do not pay attention to the waste material we produce, we are unconciously contributing to the Earth disaster.
    Our oceans are becaming contaminated by the great amount of factory boats working on the seas; our natural resources are being extinguished by ourselves and our ambition.
    What I am afraid the most is the ozone layer which everyday is getting wider, causing to people get skin cancer or dramatical alterations on it.

    I think that the people not thinking in the real hurts that provocate the neglect of our earth.
    The people (including me)not do nothing to try of changes this problem,because thinking that will happen in more time.
    I think that this problem that won't have a soon solution because the people will not take and will follow happening more hurts fr our world.
    I think that we should do is start for be aware recycle trash and obviously save energy.
    The thing that worries me most was all the change that will happen in our worldwill be provocated for us.

    Undoubtedly the dread exists in the persons who indeed worry and want to his your planet and territory.
    The dread is given for that one realizes that the warming is like a disease that slowly destroys the land and that there worries it and one tries of doing acts that do not contaminate and help to the improvement of the planet.

    There was strong the movie for which I realized that accidentall.
    I am helping to that the global warming in order that it destroys the planet. I saw that the global warming produces several changes in our planet for example the desapariciones of glaciers, with this our planet is flooded day after day.

    As the years happened, to change is obvious of climated, though some of them think that it is a cyclical problem, that is to say that is something natural and with the time it’s was fixing up.
    Is a problem caused for the people, and newly this one being aware. However, people do not reconsider and continue contaminating and in the near future our children can not breathe in peace ....

    A way of to improve a bit the planet it’s no utilization of aerosols, since they contaminate too much. To star to using the bike or walking a foot, for no used the car and to protect the environment, since is a our house

What worries me most is that man is destroying the earth with their businesses and machines to make more houses and places to live, deforesting forests that are the lungs of the earth which helps reduce the greenhouse effect
