Sunday - 6am - Yuppy Town
Watched Al Gores “An Inconvenient Truth” yesterday. According to his data and photographs, we are pretty much doomed as a planet. He kept calling Global Warming a moral issue. It’s not a moral issue as far as I can tell. It’s a survival issue like breathing. Is breathing moral or not? I suppose he’s trying to get the right wing Christians involved by calling it a moral issue. He’s trying to make the crisis more palatable to Middle America. I wonder if it is working. At an individual level, I am a terrible monster. I smoke, rarely recycle, own an SUV and an ATV. Though, I only drive about once a week and the ATV is used as much for work as play. At the moment it doesn’t run. We bought the SUV when we were fostering the 3M’s, so it was justified. We don’t need it anymore, but we’re locked into lease, so it’s not our fault. Isn’t that the cry of all criminals? Anyway, I suppose I should have Serr.biz make some sort of website calling for a electric cars and a policy change in America. Then, maybe, I can help assure my nephews and nieces have a planet to live on in ten years. They, for sure, are not to blame for the stupid environmental mess caused by our grand parents, parents and ourselves. Hmm.
