You've been surfing today and you should feel considerably warmer from the global climate impact of your profligate quest for information.

Now, when you've abandoned your mobility because you no longer use fossil fuels for an internal combustion engine and when you've stopped consuming protein and converted to an algae only subsistence diet, you can sit in the dark of your environmentally sustainable cave pondering questions such as "who starred in Citizen Kane?"

"We have to move from this fossil fuel fiesta to a smarter economy."

Gosh I sure hope government will save me from intellectual pursuit before I melt from global warming/climate change.
