She said that livestock created far more carbon emissions than transport, so we should go vegan, which is true I guess. Well you don’t necessarily have to go vegan, just go for local produce. Mills appeared at Speakers Corner in Hyde Park, London.

Biofuels have been hailed as the greatest solution to our carbon problem since London burned to the ground. However, this source of energy comes at a great cost and, quite frankly, it's just not worth it.

Earthlings, Meera and I have always had an answer for any question our son Zorkey asked us. We are embarrassed to admit, that despite having super intelligence which few species in the billions of galaxies can match, we were befuddled, stumped and silenced. Our son Zorkey was shocked when he heard us say, "We do not know, it i
