Call for action! Helena Christensen says it’s time to tackle Global Warming!
“The supermodel, who is a global ambassador for Oxfam, visited villages in the foothills of the Himalayas to see first hand the effect of floods and droughts on rural communities.
The Terai region is the most productive in Nepal but in recent years the area has suffered erratic weather patterns with more intense cold waves in the winter, followed by heavy burst of rain and lengthy droughts.
Thousands of families have been forced to leave their homes and crops have failed, meaning children suffer from malnutrition.
Ms Christensen, who has also visited Peru with Oxfam to see the effects of extreme weather, blamed man made global warming.
She warned that the problem could get worse unless the world finds a way to reduce the greenhouse gases that many believe are causing global warming.
“It’s deeply frustrating that nothing has changed – it’s like we are watching another groundhog day but the frightening reality is that this is costing thousands of lives now,” she said.
Ms Christensen also attended United Nations talks in Copenhagen at the end of last year, which ended without a global deal.”
And the Moon has turned to blood and dragons came from the deep…
Of course Christensen is highly qualified to speak on such things…
“Christensen famously once said, when asked if normal girls would feel comfortable in her new clothing line, “I don’t care. I have no clue. I don’t think about anyone but me.”
Uh huh…
“Whenever my head is like a maze, I turn to the easy things in life, the things that mean the most to me: Sex and cheese. These things are connected. Truth be told, I love all cheese: French cheese, Italian cheese, even British cheese, but Danish cheese is the greatest. I get my best nightmares after I eat Danish cheese. Actually I’ve seriously thought about getting a cheese tattoo. A nice Edam on my shoulder, maybe.”
Well I guess that settles it! Cheese is the Answer to Global Warming!
