A dream came true this afternoon!

Back in 2003, Alice started seeding amongst us in the family, the realization that Planet Earth had been screaming out loud for help for quite sometime and that it was time we all started recycling, taking our own bags to supermarkets, walking when possible, change lamp bulbs for low energy ones etc etc. Thank you Darling!

I embarked heads down on it. A few months later, I saw the DVD on Al Gore's talk called "An Inconvenient Truth" a talk about global warming. It is very good and it REALLY gets you thinking and changing your habits.

As my passion for taking good care of the environment grew, the more I wanted to "meet" Al Gore and then ... voila... it happened today, here in Panama, Al Gore brought "An Inconvenient Truth" to 3 blocks away from our flat.

It was unbelievably fantastic! The man is
F R E A K I N G - G O O D
at what he does and was sure able to pick a very good team to work with. The talk is amazingly good and very well displayed (by the way, he does his presentation on an Apple - my new passion. It's full of great features). In his talk, he not only brings world facts, as he also inserts a great deal of data and facts about the country he is in - today, Panama. He brings up all the negative stuff that is happening leading to global warming, but he also brilliantly brings us hope by giving various examples of how major events in History took place, simply because people believed in the change. He is one of those people that points out problems and together with it, brings solutions to the problems. He shows how we can change!

... and of course, he left on a Toyota hybrid car!

Oh man... I loved it and please, if you're also passionate about an environmental improvement and ever have the chance to see him, do go! Trust me, you won't regret! The whole things is phenomenal!
