MAKE COOL CHANGES...4 MA EARTH!

NEWS CORPORATION, the parent company of FOX 4, is taking a GREEN stand to combat GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE.

NEWS CORP Chairman, Rubert Murdoch, announced today that it's the company's goal to become CARBON NEUTRAL by the year 2010.

In other words...NEWS CORP is pledging--among other things--

*to invest in RENEWABLE ENERGY ...

*to replace company vehicles with HYBRIDS..

and to offer incentives to employees to buy or lease HYBRIDS.

And I'll bet that if you just take a moment to think about it, you'll take stock of things that you're already doing or could start doing to take care of mother earth.

For instance, instead of taking the elevator all the time, I take the stairs--good for energy conservation and a decent cardio blast for the old bod.

I'm also thinking that we could help out if the last person out of the restroom turned off the lights...

Hmmmm...what do you think? Any ideas/suggestions...maybe that you're practicing on your own or/and that your place of employment is spearheading?

With all due respect, Baron, if you would type in normal size, somebody might read your blog. It is so big that it hurts my eyes. And most people think when you type big you are screaming. It's rude.

I've stated previously that I am very skeptical about the alarmist claims of global warming. That said, conserving energy is always good for business. News Corp should have been trying to do this sort of thing right along. I'm glad they are changing the way they do things to save money and energy.

However, it seems to me that this new PR campaign is just a dog and pony show by News Corp to impress politicians and build goodwill with the public. The effect on the environment will be negligible.

The real good that comes out of all of these initiatives is not in trying to help the environment, it's in getting our country off of oil that comes from hostile nations in the middle east and south america.

Global warming is a fact but insignificant. The liberal alarmists are on this kick until something else comes down the pike they can politicize. Remember global cooling, acid rain and other "disasters?"

ya'll knock yourselves out.. leaves more for the rest of us. LOL
Sounds 'nice', but I'm not concerned about GW... way too many other things on the front burner, like a war with radical Islam. And, I don't buy into the al gore alarmist theory.

It is so exciting to share my thoughts with YOU through MYFOXDFW.COM and to read all about what YOU have to say about practically any and everything--from family, politics, and games to FOX4NEWS stories. Our blog on MYFOXDFW sets us so far apart from other tv news station blogs because MYFOXDFW is just that--it's personally YOURS & mine. It's another great way for us to communicate...for us to get to know one another. In fact you can think of me as your own personal FOX4NEWS/MYFOXDFW BLOG CORRESPONDENT. So feel free to leave me a comment(s) on my blog at "BARONVONBLOGLOG"...hmmm maybe that should be the name of the tv segment? At any rate there's so much more (ie. photos, my hobbies, etc) that I'll be sharing with you from Baron's world in the days and weeks and years to come. I look forward to hearing from you.
