Baru2 nih, aku dapat tengok this one documentary film entitled "An Inconvenient Truth". It's not actually a movie, movie type thingy, more on a lecture type based on research findings that was presented by mr Al Gore (bekas VP US tuh). Anyway, the whole film was about global warming and it touches on the usage of carbon monoxide or CO2.
Okay, citer skrg ni yg aku amek from the movie is that penggunaan CO2 ni mmg dah di tahap yg melampaui batas... As a result, our climate dah jadik tunggang-langgang. This is simply because all the CO2 and other gases are trapped inside the earth's atmosphere which increases the temperature of the earth. When the earth's temperature rises, it also brings about other effects like the melting of the glaciers on the top of the snow capped mountains. Uih, ada dorang tunjuk gambar2 of a few mountains yg dulu ada byk glaciers but skrg nih tinggal ciput ajer.. Not only that, the ice on the Artic and Antartica are melting.. which also brings about the rising of the sea levels.. and in addition, when the sea level rises, all the areas around the coastal shores will be submerged in water.. aiyoo, very the scary.. mmg la depa dok tunjuk gambaran kat US tuh, but it could very well happen in Malaysia too.. mmm, skrg ni pun dah dok banjir kat Johor. Just imagine if that is going to happen for good.. nanti dah takde tempat dah nak tinggal.. or what if the whole country tenggelam?? isn't it scary?? wallahu'alam..
Apart from that, when the temperature increases, banyaklah jugak penyakit2 yg timbul i.e SARS, Malaria, Avian flu and memacam lagilah.. Sebabnya, musim panas akan lebey panjang daripada musim sejuk (nih utk negara 4 musim).. From the movie dia bagi example of this beetle bug yg suka makan pine trees.. Bila, suhu makin meningkat, musim sejuk akan jadik singkat and musim panas akan lebey panjang.. so, these insects akan ada jangka hayat yg lebey lama and akan attack all the pine trees yg ada.. jadiknyer makhluk perosak nih akan idup lebey lama.. contoh lagi, mosquitos yang dulunyer hanya dok melilau kat kawasan tanah rendah, skrg nih dah berani dah nak berterbangan kat kawasan tanah tinggi sebab suhu panas kat tanah tinggi yg membuatkan mereka boleh ke sana.. ouch, ouch.. kena gigit nyamuk lah pulak.. come on mr nyamuk, jangan gigit aku laa... ada byk lagi menda yg ko boley gigit.. nih idak gatai sangat nak cium2 orang.. huhuhu.. (ke laen lah pulak yer.. :P)
Ada lagi yg dorang story.. Ini pasal hurricane yg makin bermaharajalela kesan drpd global warming.. still remember hurricane katrina?? or yg baru2 nih.. taufan durian kan yg kena kat Filipina tuh.. Semuanya kesan dari kepanasan yg melampau.. Mmm, aku pun rasa cam percaya jugaklah menda2 nih berlaku sebab global warming.. (mmm, maybe lah kot) Dok tengok skrg nih pun cuaca mmg dah tak menentu.. Hari tu baca paper, ada few ski resorts kat overseas yg tutup because takde snow.. (ala, tak yah gi jejauh pun kan?? Kat mesia pun tak abis lagi pasal banjir kat Johor). Tp, tau dak pengguna CO2 yg paling byk sekali kat dunia nih - oghang2 amerika nih la.. ish, ish.. apalah dorg ni kan.. tau buat kerosakan aje kat dunia nih.. aiyoo, mr gore sendiri pun try to bawak issue nih masa dia nyer campaign tuk bertanding lawan bush.. tp, malangnya org dok kata it's a hoax.. they just want to ignore this issue and biarkan aje..
apa2 pun you have to see it for yourself utk percaya ke idak.. as for me, it really opened up my mind and made me think bout our environment.. about the future.. about people and how foolish, selfish and ignorant people can be.. ntah, after watching it rasa macam i really wanna do something to make this world a better place to live in.. mmm, maybe try not to exhale so much CO2 for a start... hehehe, just kidding.. :P
