There's a certain kind of person who seems to revel in the amount of pollution they can personally emit. Jeremy Clarkson springs to mind immediately, but you know the type - they make a point of telling you that they don't recycle, that they drive across the road to the shop and that they always take as many plastic bags as they possibly can.
They think they're being big, clever and funny. Increasingly, people don't laugh.
Last night, I had the TV on in the background while I did other things. Tuned to ESPN, it was showing a programme called "Planet Speed". Not my normal fare, but like I said I was doing something else and wasn't paying much attention to the powerboat racing that they were showing.
Until I caught the name of one of the boats.
Owner and driver Dan Davies has called his 40 foot, 1050 horsepower speedboat "Global Warmer".
Jeremy Clarkson would be pissing himself laughing, no doubt.
