White Paint Saves The World

Prize-winning simpleton Steven Chu, US Energy Secretary (snicker), has had a wonderful, nay, revolutionary idea about how to save energy.
He wants to paint roofs white.
Seriously.
If that were the best policy I could come up with, then I would get someone else to make the announcement. If I absolutely had to do it myself, then I’d deliver the words via videolink from a pitch black room using a voice-scrambler.
Yet more proof that if we lowly human beings were responsible for all of the evil carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere – which we’re not, just to be clear -, then we wouldn’t be able to do anything significant about it anyway, because we have to rely on the brainfarts of people like Chu.
Let us not forget, as well, that a staggering 0.038% of Earth’s atmosphere is CO2. Wow, that is a dangerously high proportion.
So it sure does need a solution, one that will coincidentally raise taxes, curtail people’s freedoms, increase state control and make Al Gore fabulously wealthy.
After his election defeat way back when, Al Gore got fatter, grew a beard, became reclusive and came up with his crazy environmental rantings. The exact same things that people in mental institutions do all the time.
But we don’t listen to them.
