One square my ass…
There are legitimate ways to halt global warming, and despite the dismissal advocates for change typically receive, we could probably all do a little better to protect the planet we live on.
But on occasion, some things that come out of the jet-setting environmentalists really just blows my mind. In this case, I hope what I’m quoting was said tongue in cheek, but I just don’t know. Here’s a gem from Sheryl Crow.
Crow (4/19, Springfield, Tenn.): I have spent the better part of this tour trying to come up with easy ways for us all to become a part of the solution to global warming. Although my ideas are in the earliest stages of development, they are, in my mind, worth investigating. One of my favorites is in the area of forest conservation which we heavily rely on for oxygen. I propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting. Now, I don’t want to rob any law-abiding American of his or her God-given rights, but I think we are an industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where 2 to 3 could be required.
What the hell is she smoking? One square? Without getting too graphic, is there anyone in the reading public who uses one square or who thinks they can get by with it?
Honestly?
Now you may be wondering why I even believe that she said this. Well, it stems from the typical thought process present in most environmentalists that says that the flush toilet is the greatest bane to the environment in existence.
Whatever, guys. One thing’s for sure, you’re so full of it it would take a hell of a lot more than one square to brainwash you.
