JOSH HARTNETT IS GONNA GET RESULTS

A worldwide movement backed by big name celebrities like Leonardo Di Caprio, Orlando Bloom, Pink, The Killers and Josh Hartnett kicked off in London yesterday with the stated goal of beating global warming.  Global Cool launched in London and LA and is calling on one billion people to reduce their carbon emissions by one ton a year for the next 10 years.  Global Cool claims the climatic tipping point – when the climate becomes irreversibly damaged – can be turned back if global CO2 emissions are reduced by one billion tons a year.  Some tips to get started:

Don’t drive: “Walk, go by horse, run, rollerskate, take a coach, bus or train.”Don’t bathe:  they recommend showers, “If you really must take a bath, save energy and share it with a really dirty friend.”Don’t fly: “Hey hotshot, do you really need to fly to that meeting?”Oddly enough, Josh Hartnett was at the London press conference.  I can only assume he tunneled there.  Josh says:

“If water levels continue to rise at this rate, my house in New York will be underwater, and I’ll have to get a gondola to get around. It’s frightening … I grew up in Minnesota which is usually a cold place, but we’ve seen abnormally warm winters the last couple of years, which is unnerving.

And if the earth was 50 years old, that might mean something.  All it really does is demand this quote from Matt Stone: "Actors and actresses are the worst, because they're just fucking monkeys. Half the people in this country could do what they do but for some reason they think their opinion matters."  Granted, rolling around in the mud and living in some third world nightmare where alien like diseases are the number one export and "ham" on a menu is simply a space saving way to write "hamster" does sound pretty great, but I’m gonna have to think about it.  Do some reading.  And maybe Josh could do some reading as well.  Maybe on video conferencing, for example.
