In the wake of Earth Hour

Yes, I did my part for the recent Earth Hour thingy last Saturday but I feel I can do more. To show how much or little I care for this planet, I've decided to change the colour scheme of this blog to green for this week. Yes, I'm that damn committed. I wonder why green is the colour of choice though. Nice nature-themed colours.

Why green? I guess I was forced. I wanted to try a rainbow coloured scheme but I don't want to appear gay so green it is.

Global warming. You can't stop it really. Honestly. Scientists just don't want to tell you that. They want to cash in on this phenomenon. If we were to stop global warming, the world will have to come to a standstill. Yes.

To completely stop global warming, factories will have to be shut down, cars can't be on the road, I can't use hairspray and shit. We can't live like that can we? If factories are shut down, where will all those people work? Where will your underwear come from? The sky? (I will not like to have some piece of underwear drop out from the sky under any circumstances.)

Imagine this...

"Nice day out... Hmmm... I guess I'll jog."

(Happily jogging)

PLOP!
"Ouch! My head!"

"Here's next week's batch of underwear. Cheers! P.S: We are running out of Crocodile underwear. You mind using Renoma? e-mail me at: underwearforall@skymail.com"


So yeah, it's not really a nice experience.

We all don't like global warming but we need to bear with it as it's a side effect of the money making process. Big wigs don't want to stop it. The people in power don't want to stop it. We can't stop it.

Here's what happens in a boardroom.

The Environments Department guy(ED): Boss, we're emitting too much harmful gasses into the atmosphere. We have to cut down productivity.

Boss: That's bad...

ED: Yes, with all that gasses we emit, I think the world will end before 2012. The Mayans could've overlooked this while making their calendar.

Boss: I meant the productivity part. I'll lose money. I simply can't do that.

ED: Boss, it's for the good of the people! For the planet!

Boss: Tell you what, you take a pay cut, I'll do it. Deal?

ED: Ok, forget the crap I told you. Just don't cut my pay.

Boss: (:D)

See?

Bottomline is, global warming cannot be stopped.
