The Paris Agreement

Signed in 2016, the Paris Agreement was an agreement within the United Nations to address climate change.  Its aim was to collectively control the increasing global temperature and overall create a strong and productive response to the threat of climate change.  In addition, the Paris Agreement claimed to provide protection to developing nations that could potentially suffer from the economic costs of lowering emissions. With the intention to meet every five years, it committed its signatories to remain reliable for the goals set.  The overall intention is to keep climate change below 2 degrees celsius but allow nations to individually decide what efforts were needed in their own country to achieve the international objective, which allowed flexibility. With ambitious plans on a treacherous battle against greenhouse gases, is it likely that the Paris Agreement will prove successful and achieve victory?

Despite the efforts to create a solution, on June 1st, 2017, President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of agreement. Yet it wasn’t a surprise, given he had mentions of his unapproval during his presidential campaign, it was still a disappointment to other nations.  Trump’s reasons for backing out of the agreement was in the interest of the American economy and the working American class, with claims that the terms are unfair “to the United States, its businesses, its workers, its people, its taxpayers” (Trump) and that it is an economic burden to the country. 

Trump’s claims were supported by many other Republicans and although many agree that there are many economic downfalls, these claims also went against previous ideologies from the United States under President Barack Obama’s term in office, as he was in office at the time of the signing of the Paris Agreement. 

With the United States dropping out of the agreement, it seems highly likely that other countries that think that they could potentially suffer from the agreement will drop out.  Again, the United States is one of the largest contributors to climate change and their involvement in this agreement was very important.  

One thing to consider though is how Trump’s time in office is only temporary and that the United States is not yet formally out of the Paris Agreement yet.  Despite Bernie Sanders’ ended campaign, both him and Vice President, Joe Biden, stated their intentions to rejoin the agreement if elected in office. It is unsure where the campaign is going and nothing is for sure but it is important to consider the environmental impact that this campaign could have worldwide when voting.  This is more than the United States that this is effecting. The American withdrawal can take away so many of the efforts made and makes the rest of the world have a more difficult time.

House of Cards (Seasons 1-3)

I started watching House of Cards at the end of January.  I usually, very easily watch shows very quickly and I put aside everything else to watch.  I’ve learned this was a really bad habit so this school year I have tried my best to avoid starting any new shows.  However, my boyfriend goes to school in California so we weren’t seeing each other and in an effort to still do things together we would call each other and decided on a show or movie to watch and then we would click play at the same time and text each other our thoughts during it and then call after to discuss.  We actually started about 18 months ago when we started watching a movie but I had to go home, so we called each other to finish it individually but together. The first show in college that we did this with was You (which I already made a blog post on) and then we started House of Cards. 

I was really excited to start because I had heard such good things but I also never heard anything about the plot. I had no idea what it was about. The first episode was fine, we were not convinced that it would be the next show that we would watch but we gave it another shot and the story started really coming together.  There is a lot of ground to cover without me spoiling anything which I realized is a little difficult now that I’m writing it. 

Basically the show is about congressman, Frank Underwood, and his wife, Claire Underwood, and their journey to gain more power through manipulation and betrayal.  The show is considered to be a political thriller. It was compared somewhat to You but on a bigger scale and more important stakes as characters are leaders of the United States. 

I would recommend watching, to not look it up at all online. The internet is dangerous for spoilers.  One spolier is inevitable to come across because of the sexual assault scandal. Netflix is trying their best to cover it up by promoting the latest season of the show when viewing what to watch. Even the summary is centered around the sixth season.  I have 2 seasons to get there but still know what happens. It is what it is.  

Overall, I definitely still recommend it! I know I gave little information on the show itself but I really don’t want to spoil it for anyone.  I would so far rate the show an 8/10.  If you have watched the show you should leave a comment.  My favorite characters are Claire Underwood, Jackie Sharp and Viktor Petrov. 

Is COVID-19 Making a Difference in the Environment?

In the last two weeks I noticed that a significant number of blog posts related to the virus and how that affects whatever civic issues topic or passion topic that fits that person and I didn’t think much of it because it just makes sense. Right now that is the most relevant news so why wouldn’t we be talking about it.  However, I didn’t really feel that my civic issues topic, which is discussing efforts to fix our environment, really fit into it until I saw a tweet reposted on Instagram. Below I will insert the photo but the pictures and caption show that despite the horrible thing that is happening to our population right now, some good is coming from it.  It shows clear water in Venice, Italy, which the post claims to not have happened in a very long time, and it shows photos of swans swimming in the water, even though it also claims that they had been kicked out previously by humans. My first reaction to seeing this was wow! This is incredible. Again, horrible circumstances, but I was thinking about how a relatively short period of time can bring back a damaged ecosystem.  After seeing this post, I saw it everywhere but mostly over Instagram and TikTok.  

( I’m sorry that image quality is low 🙁  )

So… My original idea for this blog post was to find more information on the water in Venice and how it’s improved but also to look into other environmental impacts of the Coronavirus… With very little digging, I found that this post was a lie.  Numerous articles were confirming that the area of Venice in which those photos were being taken, was an area that has a large population of swans and that they never left. I did originally find it suspicious that SO quickly, there were positive impacts on the water. It doesn’t take a long time to make a mess but it is to clean it up. It was too good to be true.  

The original post has since been deleted but there are so many screenshots and other posts and videos made using the original tweet as a source so the misinformation continues to go around.  While there is nothing really significant that I can do I was thinking about the ways I can prevent this. Really just not trusting information that seems fake because it might just be. I am not saying to reject it completely, just to trust your gut and to research before it tries to convince you of anything.  While as optimistic as we try to be, I think sometimes it can blind us from what’s really happening. In the past few years, climate change has been more of a discussion and many companies are listening to that and using that to promote products with labeling that seems natural and eco friendly when it is not. While this definitely isn’t the worst thing that is happening right now, it is sending out a false image of how we can fix this Earth.

Tallgirl (2019)

A few months ago when this movie came out I heard all about it and it seemed as though everyone on the internet was watching it.  I watched the trailer and I was not super impressed. While at home, I wanted something to do so I caved and decided to start watching and I can say that still, I was not super impressed.

My biggest complaint about the movie was how they tried as hard as they could to make Jodie seem like a giant and how her being tall is burdening her in every aspect of her life.  While 6’1 is fairly tall, the main point of the movie is how Jodie struggled to find a guy that was taller than her. I found this pretty interesting because I would say most of the guys that I know are around that height.  Even if they are a bit shorter, only by an inch or two. Every person in this movie must have been like 5’2 because every scene this girl seems to be towering over everyone but in reality, I know girls who are 6’0 and I never even noticed.  The movie really made an effort to hire short actors because Sabrina Carpenter, who plays her sister is 5’0. Angela Kinsey plays Jodie’s mother, and she is 5’1. One of the recurring jokes revolving around Angela’s character on The Office was that she was so tiny.  I just found it irritating how they were making her seem even more out of place than she actually is. While 6’1 is fairly tall for a girl, I also don’t think it’s unheard of and would contribute to that much of someone’s life as it did for Jodie. 

Overall I would rate a 4/10.  The movie was entertaining and I wasn’t ever bored but I also didn’t find it exciting or revolutionary.

 

Easy A (2010)

Image result for easy a

My third Emma Stone movie on this list that I have crossed off. I believe this is the final one. Cheesy high school movies are for sure my guilty pleasure. There is something so easy about watching a high school movie and nothing is hard to interpret, everything is pretty mindless. Easy A had been on my list for a while.  Clips from the movie always used to come up in my explore page on Instagram and since I have been intrigued.  

High school student Olive tells a lie to her best friend about sleeping with a college guy over the weekend.  Another student overheard and by the end of the week, the hallways were flying with rumors. Despite it being a lie, the students start to see Olive as a slut and the original rumor gets pulled apart and transformed.  Olive gets approached by a friend who is in the closet. In an attempt to not come out, he asks Olive if he can lie and say that they had sex together. Olive agrees and this trend only continues. Rumors get worse and worse and her reputation gets tarnished.  Conveniently, Olive’s English class is reading Shakesphere’s The Scarlet Letter. As a statement, Olive stitches the letter “A” to lingerie tops and wears them to school.

I thought this movie was cute.  I really don’t have many thoughts. I really did like the incorporation of A Scarlet Letter,  I thought that it was clever.  One thing I didn’t like is how nobody believes her the entire time.  I understand that kept the plot going but I became increasingly upset when she would talk to people and nobody would believe her or understand what was happening.  That is actually how the story started altogether when she told her best friend that nothing happened but her friend didn’t believe her. I grew upset when even the teachers that she talked to did not get what was happening.  They would send her off before anything was actually dealt with. Although I really enjoyed the incorporation of A Scarlet Letter, I didn’t feel satisfied with it because I felt like none of the other characters understood it except for Olive.  Again I feel like that is kind of the point but there was something not satisfying about it.

I would give Easy A a 5/10. I think the plot was cute but some parts felt forced and rushed.  I felt that anything with meaning to the story was kind of brushed to the side.  I think it was cute and in certain situations, I would recommend it. I think this would be a good movie to watch with friends but nothing super special.

Does Recycling really make a difference?

At home, we always had three piles for our waste.  There were the regular trash bins, a box for paper/cardboard and a bin of plastics.  I had always grown up separating my trash so it could be recycled. I would go about every week to drop off our recycling and help my mother throw our plastic into larger bins where others did the same.  In my household, my mother was very serious about recycling so I grew up with it being normal to separate my waste. Even if I was in public and I had a plastic bottle, I would often carry it back home to avoid throwing it into a generic waste bin.  

I’ve noticed in the past five years especially that recycling has become more and more common in public spaces.  When I’m in the city there are usually two bins, one for plastics and one for trash. Even here at Penn State, we have so many different bins for paper, plastic, trash and even compost.  I grew up thinking that recycling was what we should do. 

I didn’t realize it though until the end of middle school that everyone’s home was the same as mine.  I assumed that every family recycled. I remember going to people’s houses and them just throwing away their water bottles with the rest of their trash. Most people just honestly didn’t care enough to recycle but then I heard a different perspective.  

It had been revealed that maybe our recycling efforts had been made for nothing.  Many American municipalities ship their recyclables to China to process but recently it came out that as part of an anti-pollution campaign, that they are no longer accepting “foreign garbage”.  Now that China is out of the picture, many companies don’t know where to send their recycling and they are sending their recycling to landfills. About one-third of the recycling made by Americans is exported, with most of it being sent to China. 

Now, what does that mean for us? What do we do now? 

As of right now, it means that in order to recycle it may come with a price.  Unfortunately, this will probably lead to a decline in Americans recycling. While it is a price to pay it may be a small price to pay to keep our planet looking clean.  What if we want to avoid this price increase? Search for waste-free options. Small changes can be made in day to day life that decrease the amount of waste we produce. Avoid using one-use utensils and dishes.  Reusable Tupperware are great for carrying food on the go and many are dishwasher safe. Of course, a nice water bottle can stop your contribution to plastic water bottle waste. These are a few suggestions but overall being aware of how much waste is being produced is the first step.

You, Season 2 (2019)

Image result for you season 2

I know this blog is supposed to be centered around films but season 2 of the Netflix show, You, was released on the 26th of December and I have many thoughts on it. 

I watched season 1 back in March of this year and I really enjoyed it.  The first season follows the main character, Joe, who falls in love with a graduate student, Beck.  While in the first scene he seems to just be intrigued by her, he becomes obsessed with Beck and stalks her in order to plan interactions and get her to fall in love with him. He does whatever it takes to be with her, including killing various people who pose a threat to their relationship.

In season 2, Joe flees Manhattan to find refuge in Los Angeles. Running from his dark past, he decides to escape and create a new identity for himself. He finds a new victim to follow, Love, but decides that he wants to change and be better so that he can deserve her. Despite making an effort to disappear from his dark nature, he still becomes obsessive over Love, this time though, questioning his actions.  

Image result for you season 2

When the trailer first came out, I was a little disappointed that they changed locations.  Only living a few miles away from Manhattan, I was biased in that I liked the set to be in New York City.  However, I think the show did a great job of transitioning. We find Joe constantly critiquing the culture surrounding California. While the characters he meets first seem to fit this California stereotype and feel shallow, they are proven to have much more depth.  I would argue that the characters in season 2 are much more thought out than in season 1. They prove the be almost the opposite. The New York characters present themselves to be more interesting but as the show goes on, prove to be shallow and bland. Los Angeles characters come across as more oblivious but they later demonstrate signs that they are much more. Looking at the love interests friendships, for example, Beck’s friends pretend to treat her right but at the end of the day, offer little help when she needs it.  Love’s friends on the other hand at first come across as ditsy Californians who try to be fake woke but they actually make an effort to comfort Love and even Joe in times of need.

What’s Eating Gilbert Grape? (1993)

Image result for what's eating gilbert grape

My celebrity crush is Leonardo DiCaprio.  My first DiCaprio film was Titanic and mm.  This topic had come up with my mother and she told me that apparently he is SO cute in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape so I added it to my list.  Now it was definitely her maternal instincts that prompted her to think he was cute but that’s beside the point.  I still watched the movie and I did enjoy it.  

Homey family coming of age movies are not my favorite.  I think they are entertaining and enjoyable to watch but they tend to not leave an impression on me.  I don’t wanna say they are bland but sometimes the plot can be a bit boring to me like there isn’t always a specific problem, just kind of following the day to day adventures of the main character who lives a relatively average life. 

THIS movie revolves around the character, Gilbert Grape, played by Johnny Depp, who I did not know starred in this movie(literally the only information that I knew about this movie was that Leonardo DiCaprio was in it ). He lives in a small town in Iowa (?) I believe, with his little brother, two sisters and their mother.  Their mother, after the death of their father, gained a lot of weight, making her unable to leave the home or even where she sits. Because of this, the sisters and Gilbert act as parents to Arnie (DiCaprio) and take care of the household. While this is happening Gibert is having an affair with a married woman, Betty.  

Overall I don’t really have that many thoughts.  It was a very neutral movie to watch. I wasn’t bored but I also wasn’t super entertained.  It was enjoyable but I wasn’t super engaged. I feel bad for giving a low score, but I am going to rate this movie a 5/10.  I just feel that this was the epitome of neutral. I apologize for such a boring review but I didn’t feel that there as much to discuss.

Are electric cars as clean as we think they are?

Whenever we hear about pollution, part of what also comes up is car usage and the gas we use and how it harms our planet. 

In the late ’90s, the first hybrid car, the Toyota Prius, was put onto the market.  Following the next decade, other car manufacturers started following and the idea of an electric car was beginning to be popular.  

Somewhere in that time, it also gained the title of being a cleaner option than regular cars.  Without the use of gas, it was expected that poof! there would be no more negative effects on the environment due to transportation.  

How clean are these cars actually?

For one, probably the most used and popular argument against electric cars is the concerns running around the battery.  The batteries used for these cars are used from rare metals that are difficult to find and take lots of work to do. The process of extracting and manufacturing the batteries have been proven to worsen carbon emissions.  Despite this, not all countries create batteries equally and have more consequences than others. Batteries produced in China have significantly higher levels of CO2 emissions than the United States or European nations.

It is definitely arguable that the production of electric cars is damaging to the planet but it can also be argued that the overall emissions after a lifetime may be less than regular cars.  

However, with the amount of electricity needed to power electric cars, it also produces significant numbers of emissions, compared to cars run on gas.  It has been found that sometimes it is almost worse to be driving an electric car.

This post was not to slam electric cars, but instead to also point out other things that are wrong with them and also say that they may not be as clean as companies are putting out.  In conclusion, most sources of transportation have a negative impact on our planet, but we can do our best to reduce that by taking public transportation, carpooling, riding bikes and even just walking! 

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019)

Of course, what kind of list of movies would this be without including a Tarintino film?  Before making this list I had watched a grand total of zero Tarintino films which was always quite embarrassing.  There were always endless Pulp Fiction references that I would always smile and nod to but could never understand.  When I created my list back in April of last year, Pulp Fiction was probably the first one that I decided to watch and later that week I watched both volumes of Kill Bill and I will say that I definitely was not disappointed by Tarintino’s work.  All of the hype I thought was worth it. I was greatly entertained during the films but after I continued to think about the plots and characters for months after. Genuinely I thought they were brilliant. I was really excited to see this movie but I was also scared because I had no knowledge of Hollywood history but I do really like the setting being 1960’s Hollywood.  I was also excited because Leonardo DiCaprio is starring and I mean… 

I would like to also apologize in the beginning, I am not consistent in how I refer to characters.  Some I call by the actual character’s name, but for a lot, I refer to them as their actor’s name just because it comes to mind quickly for me. I also am very sorry, this review is INCREDIBLY longer than most of my other ones but I do have a lot of thoughts on this movie and granted it was also a very long movie so there is a lot to discuss.

When I first sat down to watch this I saw the time was TWO HOURS AND FORTY MINUTES.  All I could think was “wow how can something be interesting for one hundred and sixty-one minutes?”  Being a Tarintino film I told myself it will be okay and quite frankly, my original skepticism was not wrong.  I did find a lot of the film to be a little boring and I felt that a lot of scenes lacked meaning and did not contribute much to the overall direction of the plot.  I believe that this film could have easily cut out at least forty minutes and still come to the same conclusion safely. I understand this was a creative decision to emulate real-life but so much felt unnecessary and contributed little. 

It is fairly well known that Tarantino has a foot fetish and after watching this it was really obvious.  There were so many scenes that feet were included and they didn’t need to be. The scene of Margot Robbie in the movie theater wasn’t the worst but still, the feet were a little unnecessary and it was really obvious that it was trying to make a point and it didn’t come across as casual like how the character was supposed to come off (I think ????).  Her feet were also dirty, despite wearing boots all day which just further contributes to the foot fetish thing. The other seat with Pussycat and Brad Pitt’s character in the car and Pussycat rests her feet on the dashboard, rubbing against the window. Yea. This one was particularly uncomfortable and the energy was also uncomfortably sexual as well (the conversation also contributed to the sexual energy as well).  I didn’t really like those scenes for the reason that most female characters were objectified and/or sexualized. Arguably the two biggest roles for females in the movie, Sharon Tate and Pussycat, are incredibly sexualized throughout the film and their sexuality is almost purely what drives their characters throughout the story(Not just through feet). Much of Robbie’s role in this movie revolves around the fact that she is beautiful and there is little getting to know her character as an actual person.  The only character trait that I can think of is that she is giggly(?) which does not really show that much depth. I can’t speak for all Tarantino films, but in the two (three? I don’t know how to count Kill Bill) that I saw, the female characters, while being beautiful and sometimes sexualized, there is also more opportunity to get to know the characters as people and their beauty is another quality on top of the person that they are. After watching the movie, there is little I can say about Margot Robbie’s character other than that she was beautiful.  This movie definitely saw females from the male gaze.

Not only was the movie obviously seen from the perspective of a male, it was also a movie meant for Hollywood, a complaint that was also made for La La Land.  In my opinion, I did enjoy this movie better than La La Land. I think they both attempted for an old Hollywood feel but in different ways and if I am being honest, I think this one did a better job and felt more realistic to an extent, whereas La La Land kind of presented Hollywood to be this Disneyland movie fantasy.  

The ending of this movie was definitely the best.  I’m not gonna lie, I was pretty disappointed with the first two hours of the movie but it REALLY picks up.  Since the end was the best part, I would like to talk about why I liked it so this next paragraph does have ~spoilers~ just a warning.  So, I was aware of the murder of Sharon Tate by the Manson family, so that is what I expected to happen. I am aware that Tarantino is known for twisting historical events but I haven’t seen any of his movies where he does that, therefore I still didn’t really expect that.  I was really expecting Tex and his followers when they decided to kill everyone to murder Sharon Tate but instead, there was an awesome fight scene. I loved the little foreshadowing places earlier in the movie that predict how DiCaprio and Pitt fight off the Manson family, like the flamethrower and the dog.  Oh also! When the Manson family was in the house and DiCaprio was in the pool I really thought he was going to die in the water in proper DiCaprio fashion, but the flamethrower was much nicer. I also really like how this wraps up the title of the film. The murder of Sharon Tate was avoided, giving the story a fairytale ending. Going back to La La Land, while that gave a fantasy feel of Hollywood, this movie gave that fairytale ending.  Once Upon a Time in Hollywood>La La Land

I do appreciate how well made this movie was and the casting I thought was really good. I enjoyed the relationship between Pitt and DiCaprio.  I really liked the ending and how it pulls together everything. I think aesthetically, besides the feet, that it was very pleasing. In conclusion, I give a 7.5/10.  I think it was really good and interesting looking back at it, but a lot of scenes were fairly dull and drawn out. I found the sexualization of female characters to be uncomfortable which I think is an issue for a lot of movies but it made me feel awkward specifically with this movie.
