My Anti-Drug

My anti-drug. Well, I actually have two anti-drugs. Playing video games, and running. Both of witch i take advantage of when i'm going through thought times. When ever i'm stressed out, if its either from school, or family problems. i take witch ever i feel like doing at the moment, and go into a zone where reality disappears. Nothing matters anymore when your doing the things you like.I love doing these activites because they make me forget about my worries. It's an escape form reality. You get to enjoy yourself, if it's either running on a cloudy day, running off you problems, or if it's releasing your stress on a game thats so fun you completely forget about the exam you have the next week. For me they're both a great way to forget about your problems in life. I use gaming to forget, while i run to see what i'm doing wrong, how can i resolve it, and

The Inconvenient Truth

The Inconvenient Truth directed by Davis Guggenheim in 2006 is by far one of the best documentarys out there. Guggenheim discusses the very real, and growing problem on  global warming. He has countless hard facts that this problem is not going away. Infact, it has gotten worse over the past years, at an alarming rate. The predicament, as he said, "is literaly, off the charts". The United States of America is the leading cause of global warming, causeing as high as 30% of the overall global problem.     The Inconvenient Truth touches the reality that we are causing this problem, we are building up Carbon Dioxide in our atmosphere. With the cluster of Carbon Dioxide, the light rays are not able to bounce of Earth and return to space. Instead, they get trapped inside Earth's atmosphere. Causing the world to warm up, global warming. Resulting in catastrophic Hurricanes, massive storms never before seen, record breaking heat, record breaking tornadoes, in one season. For example, Hurricane Katrina, was named, the mother of all hurricanes back in 2005 when it slamed into New Orleans. The Biggest Category 5 hurricane ever recorded, with substained winds of 160 mph, and gust up to 175 mph. And some may say, well it was bad luck, that global warming did not cause this monster storm. Well, just a couple of years later, in 2013, hurricane katrina was destroyed, when hurricane Haiyan slammed into the phillapines. This storm made Katrina look like a joke. Haiyan has substained winds of 175 mph, that as strong as Katrina's gust! Haiyan had wind gust of up to 225 mph! Yeah, global warming couldn't have caused that. Yeah right!
