    The war on terror brought in more terror, the war on drugs brought in more drugs. Maybe next we could have a war on Steve hughes so we can have more Steve hughes.

    Climate Experts: Syukuro Manabe, Phil Jones, James Hansen, etc. The experts and very smart people who are warning us about climate change. Funny comedian, but like almost every person who denies climate change, hasn't taken the time to research...which is ironic because his joke is about people who say stuff without knowing what they're talking about (i.e. him). Don't understand the motivation of deniers. I have no agenda or motive, I've just looked at the research and side with the logic.

    The climate change skepticism aged like shit. Hes Australian. Idk what world other commenters live in but clearly they haven't been reading about Australia for one thing....i enjoyed some other sets but this one just came off a little out of touch in the middle there in my opinion. Turned me away from the guy. The irony makes me laugh for all the wrong reasons. It's not like 8 years ago the climatologists didn't know the anthropogenic shitstorm brewing in the atmosphere and weren't already doing everything they could to inform less educated people in layman's terms. This guy mocks the light bulbs and bags because he's either as out of touch or, worse yet, as in denial on that subject as a lot of his audience is.

They are even family to some average joe who can tell them to use a reusable bag and plant the seed of a constructive attitude. Small actions can stimulate big change in the form of a domino effect. The social pressure we unknowingly exert on our neighbors by making the small changes could some day reach a corporate decision maker for all we know.
