dear al gore:

sometimes i wish you were president of the united states of america.

sometimes there were points in the middle of your movie that almost made me become an ascetic. like, why am i wasting energy leading my frivolous life when antarctica is melting?

sometimes i worry i won't even have a future because the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere will Seriously. Fuck Up. the Earth.

sometimes i feel very bad for polar bears. especially when you show a clip of a CG polar bear trying to get onto an ice floe that just sinks into the water.

sometimes america makes me very sad. like our shitty emissions standards. our refusal to ratify the kyoto treaty. our general fat selfish greedy wastefulness.

but sometimes your movie ends on such a positive proactive note that i feel a little better about the future of the world.

thanks for rescuing the frog.

love,
kate

ps: your powerbook is sexy.
