Yesterday was Earth Day.

Have been wanting to watch "An Inconvenient Truth" since the start of the year, but never got around to doing so.....maybe coz I wanted to watch it when I really felt like being pummelled with all the facts of how our world is suffering.......
Didn't regret watching it last night on HBO....I think it's a very powerful movie...it may be short...but it sure packed some impact with it.... I think Al Gore is doing a wonderful job..... yet like he said....it's not that we don't possess the necessary skills, knowledge and technology to save this earth...it's whether we want to do so........a very truthful quote about why our politicians are not doing anything about it, "It's difficult to understand something, when your salary depends largely on not understanding it."
It's almost alarming when faced with all these facts.....at how we're killing ourselves, and every other species that God has created. I can't help but wonder if my future children will be able to live out their lifespan.....It's very scary, but also very real. The rate at which glaciers are melting is frightening....I don't think I'll even have the chance or opportunity to see one in my lifetime...not at its current melting rate......
Is this God's will? Is this part of His plan? To let us deteriorate the Earth He has created because it should come to an end? Or will He step in, and save it just in the nick of time?
I can't help but wonder.......
At the same time, I think it's up to each and every one of us to do what we can to save this planet...........It's all in our hands.......
