A Fresh Look at Our Air
(How to Save the World and Become a Hero for the Non-Critical Thinker)

There's a lot of talk these days about global warming and all of the dreaded horrors and impending doom that will almost certainly be our fate, predicted to be thrust violently upon humanity like a heavy thunderstorm of raining balls of fire, if everyone doesn't hop on the shining Green bandwagon and stop utilizing half the technologies and processes that facilitate the comfortable, expedient, and otherwise convenient and/or economical style of living which is the modern way of life for most people in developed countries. I can't argue with this logic. It is my personal opinion that it simply doesn't matter that such a huge number of some of the most intelligent and reputable climatological scientists that our country has are either far from convinced of or even specifically, entirely disagree with the man-made climate change theory. I've heard enough warnings from news anchors, philosophers, politicians, and even the odd expert in one or another relevant field of study to be spurred into action and I'm ready to do whatever they tell me I need to in order to play my personal role in saving the environment.

I know there's no doubt among scholars that humans are responsible for the warming climate because Al Gore said so. I saw his movie and I believe it, word for word. How could I not? Al Gore wouldn't lie. After all, we know we can trust him because he's the only one with the intestinal fortitude to stand up and tell us all the Inconvenient Truth, so he simply must be on the level (and so brave, too!). To me, it really makes no difference at all that some of the things he states as incontrovertible fact in the movie are actually speculative, unproven, or even flat out wrong (according to a bunch of "scientists" with their snooty little "facts"). Nor do I care that he actually stands to profit ungodly amounts of money from a massive popular shift towards a "greener" way of life. No sir, not one iota does it matter to me that he is, and indeed has been, the chairman of an investment entity, one of whose primary functions is investment of huge sums of money in the development of various new, greener energy technologies. And it especially doesn't mean anything that he receives around $100,00-200,00 or more per speaking engagement (which would probably not happen nearly as often or for such a huge fee without the massive popular interest) to warn people of the need
