AL Gore, I’m your biggest fan. I want to thank you sincerely for your efforts in saving Gaia from global warming.

Ever since you released your film about global warming, flew a few thousand kilometres in your private jet to attend Live Earth concerts and gave a speech at the Bali talks, global warming has been completely stopped.

But you must be a greatly generous prophet, because you are now using your powers to reverse global warming into global cooling.

Your miracles have caused record cold temperatures and snowfall in America, China, Brazil, South Africa, Iran, Iraq and even the desert lands of Saudi Arabia.

Antarctic ice levels are at their highest in over 30 years.

And now, the levels of Arctic ice that you were so deeply concerned about are back to February 2007 levels.

It is a testament to the effectiveness of good intentions and wishful thinking.

All those global warming rallies must have really appeased the great weather spirits. But we have to be careful that our enthusiastic sitting in armchairs at home doesn’t go too far, and result in a new Ice Age.

Some people laugh at me. They say that global warming was never a real threat in the first place. They claim that climate change is caused by natural processes.

But I know who is right: my hero and saviour of Earth, Al Gore.
