To those Kool-Aid drinkers who don't believe in global warming and how badly polluted this Earth is was this faked too is this a conspiracy William shatner the actor acted as though he just took this trip wake up people we're living on a very fragile planet we must do something now to save it think of your children and your grandchildren put your Kool-Aid down open your eyes our planet needs help or your grandchildren will not survive.
