This enthralling movie/ documentary show was commented when I was watching Prime-time morning this morning. It stars Leonardo Dicaprio, the infamous actor from the Titanic, showing the effects of our dying earth. Indeed it’s going to warp your heart cause it shows the most detrimental sights of the planet that no one has ever seen before. In fact those that would watch it would be guilt stricken cause it’s going to make you feel like a heavy offender. Of course we are, yet we are unwilling to accept the fact. All of us contribute to the damaging of the eco system big or small. Hence I find it very appropriate to screen it at this time which is the climax of the problem. Whether we are going to solve this disastrous issue depends to our preventive steps now.
What a great time we are born in right now, such a great moment where we can change the way we live, the way we control the future.

Many have commented that just like Al Gore’s ‘Inconvenient Truth’, the show is pretty one-sided in its depiction of environmental issues. What do you think?
Yes I would say that his movie are little too extreme and extravagant
However I do think they are necessary to bring an impact to change people’s mindset. I think that if they would be contented by just watching his movie and do nothing to change their ways then the whole aim of the movie is wasted. By making it sound more disastrous, the message would be easily sent across to us. After all the scenes in the movie would soon become reality and even faster than we thought it would be if we do not control and contain the situation, isn’t it?
