An Inconveinnt Truth


Global warming is not new news. It started many years ago, as the earth emerged from the ice which covered it.

Al Gore who is a man cares about climate change and he has tried to show people how this problem is every dangerous to the environment also he wants to show how it is effecting on humans and animals. He talks about changes the climate north of the equator so we can see that change. The glaciers change to water so they will causes an increase the level of the sea this will cause flooding to towns which are near the beaches such as India, Pakistan and some cities in America. Also AL Gore said the temperatures will increase in the future so the ice will melt more and more and causing a mounts of water to raise this dangerously. He mentions there are many countries that care about global warming such as America which did great thing like the ozone layer issue.

In conclusion,the problem can see from what I have written above about AL Gore. This problem is serious problem because the world is in dangerous position so we need to put rules about this subject.

Opinion - An Inconvenient Truth


The film, an inconvenient truth was very interesting, because it showed us a lot of information about global warming. Also I liked the explanation of Mr. AL Gore, because he had a special way of making people interested in his presentation. Al Gore made the issue of the melting ice the most compelling viewing in this presentation this is because he gave us examples of the melting ice such as the how the temperature was increasing and showed us a video of how the ice was melting, This will cause problems such as it will increase the sea level this will cause floods in towns which are near the coast such as New York and London. Overall I agree with all the points that were mentioned. The music was very effective; also the images that included graphs were appropriate for all the facts. In my opinion, my evaluation of this movie is 9 out of 10.


Finally, the movie has more information about Global warming which we don’t know about it. Also it shows us what will happen in the future. I would like to advise people how like his live in save should care about Global warming.

Lebanon report

Lebanon is the one of fewer beautiful countries of the world

Lebanon was called the land of milk and honey in ancient times. In addition also the nicknam for Beirut was Paris of the East .Shakira is a famous singer who is half Lebanese. There are five counties that surround Lebanese which are Israel, Syria, Jordan, Turkey and Cyprus.


In 1943 there were increased tensions between Muslims and Christians, because after Lebanon gained independence, the Christians held the balance of power and Lebanese and the Muslims didn’t except that. In 1975 the tensions reach their peak, because the Christians killed a bus of full Palestinians in downtown Beirut. However the results of the tensions were revenge killings and violence that began to spiral out of control. In 1982 the Israeli army invaded the city with the aim of removing Palestinians from Beirut after that seven years latter a peace deal were signed. The resulting human and economic were costs, were between 150000-20000people were killed, a father 300000 were wounded and the economy was paralyzed.

Finally, since the war has ended there are signs of social and economic recovery in Beirut such as newly built highway to carry high-speed traffic, built US-style shopping malls and they were built new wonder corniche. There were some problems in the country such as 300000 young people have left, foreigners are taking over business and unemployment remain very high.

Cool City


Cool City
Since the star of the industrial revolution, there have been some of the problems associated with economic development such as increasing population this will increasing in energy consumption. We need another earth to solve this problem. We have to decrease half of the amount of carbon dioxide emitted in to the air to live within the capacity of a single earth. In Japan during the last 30 years GDP (Gross Domestic Product) has gone up 100 percent while energy efficiency has increased 37 percent and oil consumption has decreased 8 percent. 90 percent of carbon dioxide emitted into the air comes from building and transportation. Cool city, its model city. SDCJ which is building it, I from Japan. There are three types of transportations that will be used in Cool city which are hybrid, water taxi. Business, residential and culture is the various zone in the city. There are some techniques that will reduce heat such as water, trees and roof membrane. It is expected that resident building would reduce CO2 by 30 percent and the other buildings by 50 percent. The overall percentage of reduction of CO2 emissions claimed in the video was 60 percent.
