Well that sad part is

Well the sad part is that the IPCC gave a lowball estimate for the 2 feet of sea level rise.

The Borg collective is riding high

on its celebrity status. Celebrity status is a poor substitute for scientific peer acceptance. What he has to say is pretty mind numbing. Spend money on research for carbon neutral technology, aids, and malaria but don't actually attempt to do anything...until, until?

Find a way to put a price on the head of malaria or aids and the free market would attack them as it will carbon emissions. Maybe he should dedicate a little thought as to how to do that instead of parleying his contrarian views on global warming into a ride on the celebrity pony and personal wealth.

In the end, it all comes down to biodiversity. Poison Darts--Protecting the biodiversity of our world

The shirt is back!

Either he
(1) really thinks he looks great in a black polo shirt
or
(2) doesn't own anything else

Either way his wardrobe choices are bizarre.
