Arctic race - spoof video

Here's an entirely fictional little video about what's going on in the Arctic. Sign the petition to help out in real life...

We got the idea for this video after Russia planted a flag deep under the ocean ice as part of their bid to control vast areas of the Arctic. As if this wasn't silly enough, some news programmes mistakenly included footage from the movie Titanic in their reports! (The submarine used by Russia had also been in the movie.)

But the story behind the story is real. Global warming is melting the Arctic at an alarming rate. This summer the Arctic ice cover was the smallest ever recorded. As a result, there really is a race on to grab up the oil, gas and other resources once protected by ice.

But the more oil and gas we burn, the faster the Arctic melts and the closer our planet comes to catastrophic climate change. More here...

because they're a classic example of a good idea sucked down the tunnel

saving the environment was a worthwhile struggle until those assholes tainted it with ignorance and vested interest

global warming is real but neither side will ever have a good argument because they're too shallow to look above petty ideologies

[thunderflash82]

canada and denmark are gonna rule the world, all 35 millions of us...muhahaha

ucihapokujin- You sound like a fool.

You don't know me. You would not talk that way to my face. I guarantee it. Your profile says your 20, that makes sense. Just a kid, and your mouthpiece proves it.

So you've seen particle accelerators, wow, can somebody get this guy a cookie?

I said nothing about any radioactive water or it being evil. I said nothing of non-conformity either. These are assumptions. And, you have no clue how I eat, Jerky!

No positive suggestions yet? I'm not suprised ;-P
