Climate Day - Wednesday March 24, 2010

On Wednesday, March 24th, 2010 we supported Climate Day at the Katie Wheeler Library.
We wanted to represent all sides of the global warming debate. Therefore, we had a couple of different things going on.

1. A showing of the Inconvenient Truth
2. Articles showing the Anti-Global Warming Point of View**
3. Discussion

** we wanted to show the Great Global Warming Swindle, but we were unable to stream that into the library, so we had to do with just articles.

Despite some of our difficulties, the discussion really pulled through. People were engaging in what was going on in the world. Many people had conflicting view points, but we were able to represent the full spectrum in a sophisticated and dignified way :)

But something that did appall me a little was way people simply accepted Al Gore's message. But that delves a little into my own personal belief, so I will not go there for now.

Overall, the event was a success and there is definitely more to come :)
