AIT summary

In this movie Al Gore talks about a truth that the whole world will suffer from if we didn’t change our life style. He spent his own time traveling around the world to make people aware of this truth and to help save the planet. Also he stressed that the climate is changing according to scientific opinions and charts as a result of the increasing CO2 emission. The film included many sections that disagree with people who say that Global Warming is not a problem like the collapsing ice in many countries like Antractica and the rising temperatures. Al Gore’s father used to grow tobacco and his sister used to smoke it until she died suffering from Cancer. After that his father stopped growing it because he didn’t want people die because of him and he told us this story because he wanted every one to stop doing wrong things.

Why it's called "An Inconvenient Truth" ?

“An Inconvenient Truth” is a movie that talks about Global Warming, the rising CO2 emission around the world and the use of energy. It’s called “An Inconvenient Truth” because the emission of CO2 causes many problems. Also it might force us to change our life style to reduce our carbon footprint which is uncomfortable for many because they are used to their routine and it’s hard to change it.

Introduction to Cool Cities

Global Warming is a worldwide case that may cause major issues in the next 50 years. What causes Global Warming is the rising temperature of the earth than the average because when the sunbeam is caught between the earth and the Ozone layer as a result of pollution like the increasing number of cars, factories and the use of the energy. Governments must get involved with this problem and think critically to help solve it. Many cities have signed to be cool-cities. Abu Dhabi is planning to create a city that is entirely powered by a renewable energy. It may help but there are many things that Abu Dhabi should do to be a cool-city such as recycling cans and papers and using renewable resources. In this project I’m going to research and use critical thinking to find smart solutions for this problem.

My reaction about the movie Blood Diamond

The movie blood diamond is a very interesting movie. It opened my eyes to new and different conflicts that happened in the world. I didn’t know that there is a kind of diamonds that called blood diamonds or conflict diamonds and this kind of diamonds were found by labour who were forced to mine for them. The film talks about a small family in a small village and one day the head of this family was separated from his family to work as a slave in the diamond fields. One day this guy found a large diamond. After that he tried to hide the diamond. Suddenly these fields were attacked by the government. But that guy survived and he was taken to the prison. After he got out from jail he went to look for his family. Later on he met a person called Archer he trades weapons with diamonds. Archer promised Solomon that he will help him to find his family if he told him where he hid the diamond. They started their journey and they met Bowen she was working as a reporter. Bowen wanted to help Solomon to find his family and she knew that Archer was using Solomon to get away from Africa. She refused to help Archer unless he can tell her about diamond market. Archer agreed to give Bowen the information then they flew to the place of the diamond. After they found the diamond, Archer was shot in his stomach and before he died and gave Solomon the diamond and told him to call Bowen as soon as he arrives. Then Solomon sold the diamond for a big amount of money and Bowen was taking pictures while Solomon was making the deal. Then the pictures were published in magazines under the title “Blood diamonds”.

Lebanon is in the center of the Middle East and its capital city called Beirut which has two nicknames “The land of milk and honey” in the bible and the other one is “Paris of the East”. There are many religions in Lebanon but what makes it unique in the Middle East is that Lebanon has almost an equal number of Muslims and Christians. Lebanon is considered a young nation because the majority of its population are less than 25 years old.


In the past there were many problems in Lebanon it went through a lot of problems. In 1943 tensions have increased between Muslims and Christians because Muslims had nothing to do with the balance of power. These tensions reached their peak in 1975 after a bus attack by a Christian group called the Phalange and the victims were Palestinians. After that a revenge killings have issued as a result of the tension. In 1982 Lebanon was invaded by the Israeli army to remove the Palestinian Liberation Organisation. Few years later a peace deal was reached between Lebanese leaders to offer an equal balance between Muslims and Christians. About a quarter of the population in Lebanon left the country because of these tensions.


Nowadays Lebanon is trying to recover its economy by turning Beirut into a global financial center like New York and inviting foreigners to invest in the re-building of Lebanon. Also there money is pouring in form businessmen in Gulf States like UAE. Lebanon is well-known for its nightlife because it has amazing bars and clubs where young people get crowded there.
