In an effort to focus the world’s attention (all 2.4 seconds of it) on the evils of global warming, hopefully averting a crisis of Follywood proportions, what more down-to-earth shtick could you come up with than a remake of a pop song? Doesn’t that trick always work? Remember Band-Aid? Or was it Farm Aid? We R the World…..
But this time it’s going to be different. Major different. No lame Spinal Tap jive here. The new project will feature those icons of environmental defense – Duran Duran! I kid you not.
According to AFP News (whatever that is), “The media campaign featuring the song is aimed at putting pressure on world leaders to reach an agreement on tackling climate change at a UN-sponsored conference in Copenhagen in December.”
I’m getting my thermal undies out now – the world is saved!
