UN Courts Hollywood on Global Warming

Very 1984ish. If you can't win them over in the political arena, brainwash them with subliminal storylines.

Ron Paul to the rescue. There ought to be a law requiring detailed, government approved, environmental impact statements for all Hollywood films shot anywhere other than a studio lot. Additionally reports should be required detailing the environmental efforts taken at the aforementioned studios to include the eco-friendly re-use disposition of all set materials.

I bet an on location movie is an eco-disaster with all the flying stars around, vehicles, gourmet bottled water, destroyed set material and such.

And I don't care what princess says, her make-up will look just fine under the new government mandated CFL set lights.

Pass a few laws like that and maybe they shut up some.

Oh I know, can't I have  little fun?
Actually in looking for a congressinoal kook to suggest such a law Kucinich is a more likely candidate.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Ban has made global warming a major priority of the international agency. “The science is clear,” he said in an interview.
No, the science is quite muddy and has been discredited with the whole Climategate affair.

Bring it, MF.  I'll show you "Drastic Measures" if you try to bring me down to Turd World living standards.
