11th Hour

Last June 20, 2013 my professor show us a documentary clip. The documentary is entitled "The 11th Hour" and it's plot is all about environment, global warming and what we do on nature. The main character of the documentary is the actor Leonardo Dicaprio and 50 other environmental activist. After watching the documentary film my professor tell us to cite two character in the documentary and make a reflection about what the characters said in the film. At first it is hard to decide who will I pick because all of the scientist are correct. But after watching it again I realize that the documentary was made by groups of environmental activist, politician, businessman and scientist so I focus my attention on the group of businessman because of all the people in the world. Businessman are one of the top contributors why there is global warming and destruction of environment. One of them is Ray Anderson, he is the founder of one of the world's largest manufacturers of modular carpet for commercial applications. He quoted that "Global Warming is real and it's destructive and it's impact are beyond our imagination." the quotation is true because base on my experience I once feel the wrath of mother nature and it is very unpleasant what our doings have lead to. The other person is Matthew Simmons, he is the founder and chairman of Simmons & Company International. He quoted that "We will only stop this if we solve our energy problems." for me he made a huge impact because what he quote is very true. people tend to explore what nature gives us thus giving us the knowledge of energy and for me energy is very essential nowadays for industrializing and modernization but we tend to forget that energy comes to nature and the only way to get it is by destroying nature.

After seeing and hearing all of the comments of environmental activist in the documentary. I made a conclusion that we cannot stop global warming but we can slow it by doing little things. Little things that can contribute big in our dying environment.
