I don't hate Al Gore anymore!

Hey there!


I realized yesterday that I don't hate Al Gore anymore. I was reading an article about his new book and came to realize that I have a lot of the same ideas...well at least I am interested in implementing a lot of the same ideas that he has.

I don't necessarily believe that humans can change the climate of the earth which is his major concern, but I do believe that using renewable energy and each human working to waste less and make a cleaner natural environment will benefit everyone's immediate surroundings. This will make life better for everyone with cleaner air and more beauty in nature.

The earth is on a cycle in the universe which results in different patterns of temperature throughout time, which is why I believe that climate change may be currently happening. It is hard for me to believe that we can change the climate of the world, but I do believe that we can use energy in a more efficient way that makes life better for people and Mother Nature.

The biggest hurdle in this is getting people to shift their energy use and mindset about energy. With so much money invested by very rich people in the current energy sources it is hard for this to happen. We need end users and businesses to implement the changes NOW and not wait for governments to make regulations requiring this. If businesses start using this energy and making the infrastructure of our country using energy efficient buildings and transportation, the trend will set in for the long term.

Al Gore is ok, and it is up to us to make changes.
