Do you feel a chill in the air? Well if you do it’s because there is no more global warming. Now you will probably ask, “What do you mean there is no more global warming?”. After all former VP and nobel prize winner Al Gore said in an interview to 60 minutes (excerpt):
Confronted by Stahl with the fact some prominent people, including the nation’s vice president, are not convinced that global warming is man-made, Gore responds: “You’re talking about Dick Cheney. I think that those people are in such a tiny, tiny minority now with their point of view, they’re almost like the ones who still believe that the moon landing was staged in a movie lot in Arizona and those who believe the world is flat,” says Gore. “That demeans them a little bit, but it’s not that far off,” he tells Stahl.
So if the smug and pompous one himself declares that there is global warming, how can I say there isn’t? Well aside from the scientific fact that there isn’t, the real reason is that the citizens of the Israeli city of Tel-Aviv put an end to it last night. From 8-9pm local time Tel-Aviv turned out the lights. For one hour citizens were urged to turn off their lights in an effort to save energy, and help limit damage to planet. There was even an “unplugged” concert attended by tens of thousands of people, and whatever power was needed was generated by bicyclysts peddling away and generating energy.
It was just beautiful, everyone sitting around in the dark, really making a difference. As an old fashioned male, I tend not to display my emotions in public. But after this event, I just couldn’t keep it in. I must admit it, I shed a tear.
The planet has been saved.
