I saw An Inconvenient Truth tonight as part of the Sydney Film Festival. Al Gore provides some hard facts on global warming and the effect OUR activities have had on the planet over the past few decades.

This is one of those films that ALL people should see, no matter which country they're from.

There aren't any more SFF sessions, and it's apparently not coming to Australia until September… which means you might need to obtain it from more dubious source. Although I doubt the movie distributors are listening, BitTorrent would be the perfect medium to get the "message" out there.

(As a side note, I've moved across to one of EnergyAustralia's renewable energy plans, to contribute some small part to this. It's as easy as filling out an online form.)

I finally watched The Corporation last night. It's a documentary on the basis of corporations and their "behaviour" in the world today.

I simply LOVE the "symptoms of a psychopath" checklist – it's a pretty frightening look at what these businesses get away with.
