An Inconvenient Truth

The man who was once our next president finally won a vote that counts--The vote for Best Documentary Oscar. Al Gore's " An Inconvenient Truth" chronicles Gore's career as he focuses on potentially one of the biggest issues facing future generations, global warming. The movie is a must see primarily because it's based on....The truth we were all in denial of, the world coming to an end.

However, Gore is not the only one schooling on global warming, Sheryl Crow has headed back to school to talk to colleges about the growing problem of global warming. Teaming up with environmentalist, Laurie David, Crow hopes to get the word out to students how they can participate in the environmental movement.

The issue which is a personal one for Crow, talks about how her family grew up owning a home on the Florida gulf coast ever since she can remember. Crow hopes to educate campuses along with entertain them with a few songs. She says her real objective is to motivate the students to participate in the movement and to get them talking with a question and answer discussion.

"We open up the floor to questions and answers, to have a dialog with students. We also want people to be part of a campaign toward leadership, and vote for people who are environmentally conscious."

Crow and company will be trailed while on the road by a documentary film crew. The Stop Global Warming College Tour wraps up on Earth Day (April 22nd) in Washington D.C.
