Re: The 7 Most Retarded Ways Celebrities Have Tried to Go Green

I agree, but that's the problem - you need more than a message, you need action. Organizing a huge event to raise awareness is great in theory, but when it completely goes against the message, you're basically saying "the ends justify the means".

Re: The 7 Most Retarded Ways Celebrities Have Tried to Go Green

Celebrities get on my nerves with this stuff because they assume that people view them as leaders.

In a King's Court, they would have been the court jester. The entertainers. Nobody looked towards the jester for leadership or guidance.

Fame does not equal a platform, at least not with me.

I'm a lot more apt to listen to Al Gore than these fart-sniffing Hollywood types.

buy al gore's carbon credits... he needs you're guilt money :/.
it's cool that he wastes so much energy, then makes up for it by paying himself with his own money. but he wants you to pay him with your money too...

capitalism at it's best!

Have you seen that Penn & Teller: BS episode about saving the Earth? That was golden, I loved the part about the woman who goes around preaching to save the Earth but she drives an SUV and she makes up for it by buying carbon credits from a company she owns.

@TMC: Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks!
