In his documentary of that name, the "former next president" of the United States stresses that scientists are actually in agreement that the climate is changing. And while it might be inconvenient for politicians and the general public to engage in steps to combat this change, the future of the world's environment--as we know it--looks grim if we don't, he insists. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/features/arts/20070630TDY15001.htm"><P>Gore's film, which is enjoying an extended run in Japan, has done much to raise awareness of environmental issues over the past year, but July 7 will mark a follow-up event: Live Earth. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/features/arts/20070630TDY15001.htm"><P>One hundred million people will attend nine concerts on seven continents across the globe (yes, that does include Antarctica). A combined TV audience of 2 billion people will watch. These are the targets of organizers, who hope most of those 2 billion will not only tune into the music, but into the issues, too. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/84CD2373-A56A-4E13-ACE7-57599D43E1EA/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
