[...] Just as the rush to produce biofuels is eradicating orangutans (and people) and causing skyrocketing food prices, the "green" solution of red worm composting turns out to be not at all beneficial overall. The unintended consequences of this rush to "do something" is in fact, causing more harm than good. Bjorn Lomborg – who does believe that global warming is happening – also believes most of the quick-fix solutions touted by the likes of Al "Gorezilla" Gore and his sycophants are bogus. This little item tends to prove that point rather well. Then again, Gore is probably figuring out how to sell more carbon offsets to people using red worms at this very moment. [...]

In case you haven’t seen it, you will likely get a kick out of this. I know I did.

If the effort to “fix global warming” wasn’t so totalitarian and just plain obnoxious, I could conceiveably get on board with it.

I like “Gorezilla”. He has a strange affinity for power lines. After all, he uses 20 times the national average of electricity.
