It’s popular to complain about the potential effects of global warming, but that’s not very American at all. That’s for sissy Euros.
We’re optimists and go-getters, and we always make the best of things and see opportunties where others see only danger.
A band called Minnesotans for Global Warming amusingly reflects (and parodies) this American can-do spirit and sees the positive potential of global warming, in their song and video, "If We Had Some Global Warming." (Thanks to the Boston Globe for the reference.) Enjoy:
I do know what you mean, Joe, and you’re quite right!
S.T., I forgot to say that that globe gives out a Red Green vibe, if you know what I mean.
Joe–I too found the globe particularly amusing, especially given the nature of the apocalyptic hysteria the song ridicules.
Great video, S.T. This is a song that would be perfect for the Dr. Demento Show. My favorite image is the blow dryer & the duct taped globe.
