X : Toms not Tons?
Me : Gosh, old presentation circa 2008. Basic premise was that a ton of CO2 was meaningless and so convert to a metric (in this case Tom Cruises) that meant something i.e. every 2.1 tons was one less Tom we can support hence save Toms not Tons.
... from this you can calculate more "meaningful" things e.g. Christmas in the UK costs us a Birmingham of Toms.
X : Are you doing anything in the environmental field?
Me : These days, no ... well, minimal. But I'm thinking of starting something but not on prevention.
X : What?
Me : Where I live ... Romney Marsh... could well be under water before 2050. We've also a history of piracy. So, I thought I'd start the Romney Marsh Viking Association. Get people training in shipbuilding, boarding and piracy. I suspect it'll be a growth opportunity.
X : Piracy?
Me : Yep ... raiding up and down the coast, possibly across the sea, useful skills for the future ... that sort of thing. Long distance raids on New Zealand billionaire bunkers would be a stretch target.
X : Are you serious?
Me : Well, that depends.
X : Upon what?
Me : How serious are we about climate change?
