Talk About Man-Made Global Warming

Some days I just get tired of being told that I'm responsible for polar bears dying and that everything that I do, touch, or support is helping to destroy the Earth. Blame this guy first!

There's this dude in Chile who just found himself in hot water. He was so inconsiderate to our Mother Earth's precarious predicament, that he just got busted for stealing five tons of ice from the Jorge Montt Glacier. That's in the Patagonia region of South America if you're planning to compete on Jeopardy.

Mr. Heartless was removing the ice from a glacier that experts say is dissolving at a rate of half a mile per year. It's unclear how much his activities might have contributed to this, or how long his operation was in business. I don't know about you, but I can't help but wonder.

In another blow to the planet, this ice was mined for the purpose of being sold as "designer ice cubes," intended for bars and restaurants. Over $5,000 worth of the cool commodity was recently confiscated from a refrigerated truck headed for Santiago.

Now the normal side of me wants to scream, "Who the heck cares! It's ice for crying out loud!" However, that's in direct conflict with the brainwashed part of me that says "Lock him up and throw away the key!" 

Whatever your opinion, it might get you to thinking.  You can read the actual story here.
