Global Warming: Judgement Day
Filed Under Global Warming
Parts of southern Spain are being reclassified as dessert. See this article in the New York times today. The picture says everything.
Images like this trigger in my mind a conversation between Ray and Winston. Ghost Busters fans will understand:
Ray: I remember Revelations 7:12…”And I looked, and he opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake. And the sun became as black as sack cloth, and the moon became as blood.”
Winston: “And the seas boiled and the skies fell.”
Ray: Judgement day.
Winston: Judgement day.
Ray: Every ancient religion has its own myth about the end of the world.
Winston: Myth? Ray, has it ever occurred to you that maybe the reason we’ve been so busy lately is ’cause the dead HAVE been rising from the grave?
Ray: [Pause ] How ’bout a little music?
Winston: Yeah.
Come to think of it, the world HAS been pretty busy in the last few months with disaster-relief efforts from hurricanes to earthquakes to floods…
