Planet Green

The Discovery Channel has made itself over into something called "Planet Green." It is nothing more than a continuous stream of self-congratulatory newly green getting all warm and tingly about being green and propaganda. I've watched a few minutes and found nothing but the continuous stream of propaganda.

Well, we have an actor who just wants to be as green as green can be. At least Begely's show is done with a bit of humor. Then we have Hollywood Green where rich actors seem to talk about just how wonderful and green they are. Why, I was just beside myself with pride, when they "greened" up their country club.

Ad after ad on being green. Break after break on being green. Comment after comment on just how wonderful it is to be green.

It's down right sickening drivel and propaganda. It's enough to make me to want to change my last name.
