Apple CEO Tim Cook is joining the CEO Council for Sustainable Urbanization, a group formed by the Paulson Institute and the China Center for International Economic Exchanges in order to divert the environmental impact of China's urban growth.

"Apple is committed to running our global operations on 100 percent renewable energy and we're working hard to reduce emissions throughout our global supply chain," Cook said in prepared statement from the Paulson Institute. "We look forward to participating in the CEO Council's effort to advance China's green transformation and hope to do our part in helping China reach its climate goals."

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Some inhabitants are human, and humans are Children of God. If, by speck, you mean something the size of a mustard seed, then there is no limit to what they can do, and in comparison, the sun is a speck.

However, climate change is not caused by humans. Among other reasons, every planet in the solar system is currently undoing climate change.

I got an idea. He can start by getting the Chinese to stop killing reefs in the Spratly Islands with their “urban renewal” projects for starters. That should get him some street cred with the Green Mafia.

The Chinese will never go green because there is no profit in it and they have a surplus of slaves to work in the polluted factories and landscape and more than enough clients to buy the merchandise produced by the slaves.

Tim: Learn how to say “We can always fool the foreigner” in Mandarin. Because I guarantee you’re hearing them whisper it to each other when you meet them. It’s easy to spot; it’s what they say before they start laughing.

Perhaps we can convince iGore to move there permanently. . . he'd do a lot more good there than here. . . if cleaning up the environment were his real goal.
