Mr. Gore Goes (Back) to Washington

Al Gore with J&R CEO Rachelle Friedman & J&R Executive VP Jason Friedman

You wouldn’t know it based on the hailstorm we were hit with last Friday, but global warming is real, and it’s just getting worse. Just ask Al Gore. He went and harassed Congress this week, testifying before a couple of committees on how our government’s inaction on climate change is dooming our planet to many years of unseasonable warmth, the closure of many ski areas, and an increase in the sales of tank tops and short shorts. Clearly, this is an epidemic of epic proportion that needs addressing ASAP.

Of course, if you’ve seen An Inconvenient Truth you know that what’s at stake is a lot higher than just having to see sweaty guys in tiny shorts on the subway, although that’s mighty unpleasant. No, we’re talking stuff like rising sea levels, mass extinctions, dangerously low potable water levels, and nasty stuff like that. So we salute you, Mr. Gore, for taking the fight to Congress and making sure no one forgets about the importance of environmental responsibility. We’re with you.
