Proposal: We made smoking tobacco a socially awkward and disgusting habit and outlawed it to boot. In the name of health. That transition only took 20 years from a generally acceptable public habit of everybody to a crime. Now why the fuck cannot we do the same with climate ruining habits?

I watched 'About a Boy' last week. It's one of my favourite films and I haven't watched it for years. The most shocking thing about the whole thing? Hugh Grant takes out a cigarette and lights up. IN A RESTAURANT!

Who knows, maybe in a couple of decades we'll be watching a film and be flabbergasted at someone driving a car with a combustion engine.
