With “new” information about global warming being a big news topic lately, I wonder how badly humans (especially industrialized humans) want there to be someone else to blame. How many future wars are going to be fought over who polluted the most? That is if the “war on terrorism” ever stops, I think it’s more likely to morph into whatever is popular at the time (the war on mullets). I wish a highly intelligent alien species would drop down to earth and say “you humans did this to yourself!” and point whichever alien digits they might have at us. It would force us to see ourselves as a planet and not as separate countries. I’d also like the aliens to look like giant guinea pigs, but that’s beside the point (I have alfalfa, please don’t enslave me). In reality I think it’s more likely that a highly intelligent species is watching us from a very safe distance and recording data for the intergalactic Darwin awards.

One thing I do like about the “new” global warming information is that there is no backing out. Apparently we’re going to go through a huge climate change whether we keep polluting or not. I’m not saying this is a good thing because we can all keep polluting and wasting everything we were given. I’m saying it’s a good thing because survival of the fittest is going to meet us on the front lawn, and the ones that do survive will be stronger… Also, can we please have a woman president. This whole boy’s club is so 1950.
