I rush out Al Gore's movie with a sudden urge to do something. There is no queue for the bathroom so thankfully I can do what I need to do. I wash my hands making sure to use the minimum amount of water from the tap making sure that everyone in Bangladesh now has enough drinking water for the next few years.

I go to dry my hands and there is only a paper towel dispenser and paper is bad because it comes from trees. We need trees because they are like Canadian Girlfriends. They look pretty and do useful things for us which often go unnoticed and without them we'd die. Trees also provide good homes for Beavers.

I do feel motivated to do something though, which is a strange feeling. The last film I saw about Global Warming was Waterworld and the only thing I wanted to do after that was to search out Kevin Costner and make him pay for stealing a portion of my life I'll never get back. But my Private Life is already pretty green so I'm not sure what more I can do. I take public transport and only drive about 5,000 miles a year in a Yaris which does an amazing 40+ MPG. I recycle although I have a nasty feeling that most of the stuff I recycle probably ends up in a landfill.

And we must do something quick. The most harrowing graphic in the entire film was one he showed of Florida disappearing under the rising sea levels. It was traumatic and disturbing. My Canadian Girlfriend's Parent's Condo was submerged. We need to do everything in our power to try and find a quick fix. We are not planning on going there until the new year and I cannot swim. We cannot let the ice caps melt.

So maybe I can make some changes at work. Rather than printing out Agendas for loads of people coming to all my pointless meetings, I will take a projector and laptop and thus cut down the paper I produce. Hmmm, but having a projector and laptop sitting on the desk all through the meeting eating up electricity is not good either. The electricity will come from burning Coal or Oil and that is nearly as bad as generating electricity from a kitten incinerator.

So paper's bad and electricity's bad.

I'm probably going to feel guilty whatever I do.

This must be what it feels like to be Catholic.
