Save the Planet — Eat Skippy!

Farting cows and sheep are bad for the environment, as I’m sure we all already know. They produce methane gas which is more damaging to the environment than carbon dioxide. An Australian scientist has a solution, however.

Switching from beef to kangaroo burgers could significantly help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, says an Australian scientist.

“Tut-tut, tut-tut,” says Skippy.

“What’s that, Skip?” I reply. “The mad* Australian scientist wants to eat you?”

Is there much money to be made from kangaroo farming in the north-east of England, do you think? Could be a win-win situation, methinks… unless you’re a kangaroo…

*Not that the scientist in question is really mad. If you’re his lawyer, that was just a joke. Honest.

Saving the Planet.

One more George video…

Once again he perfectly sums up my feelings on this subject. Wonderful, you old, dead motherfucker!

We’re All Going to Die!

This is something I joked about here a while back, but I never figured that some would take such a nonexistent threat seriously. (Okay, I did — but I never thought they’d take their unfounded fears to such ridiculous lengths.)

The builders of the world’s biggest particle collider are being sued in federal court over fears that the experiment might create globe-gobbling black holes or never-before-seen strains of matter that would destroy the planet. [more]

I’ll bet my entire life-savings that we’ll all still be here afer the LHC is switched on. Any takers?
