Whackiest Climate Solution…

Digging around in the blogosphere, I think I may just have found the solution we’ve all been looking for…

STOP THE USE OF LAWNMOWERS, WEEDWHACKERS, ETC AND DEMAND EVERYONE TO HAVE THE RIGHTS TO PLANT TREES AND BUSHES AND NOT HAVE TO HAVE LAWNS. FOR THOSE WHO DEMAND TO HAVE LAWNS THEY WILL USE A SHEEP OR GOAT RENTAL SERVICE TO KEEP THEIR PROPERTIES MAINTAINED.

This is an excerpt from a comment posted to a very cool video that poses a challenge to the Presidential Candidates to tackle global warming by re-engaging with the rest of the world.? I can’t decide whether to go with that or the goats.

But whichever one I decide to go with, I have to agree with my colleague Rich (sorry Howard — but when he’s right, he’s right!) that the LiveAid crew should put concrete solutions on the concert menu. We’re way past the “climate change? what climate change?” point in this conversation… Just do me a favor… don’t let Spinal Tap pick the solutions.

Now please excuse me, I have to go see a man about a goat…
