Blog-al warming day

CNN is talking about something called 'Blog Action Day', which describes itself as follows:

Blog Action Day is an annual event held every October 15 that unites the world’s bloggers in posting about the same issue on the same day with the aim of sparking discussion around an issue of global importance. Blog Action Day 2009 will be one of the largest-ever social change events on the web.

Yet would anyone care to bet that when they say 'social' change (such as deciding to do something yourself, such as recycling your plastic bottles) a great many of the contributors are actually talking about 'political' change (using the collective means of coercion to force people under threat of violence to be more 'green').

La nota completa es apenas más larga, agregando un par de enlaces, pero lo curioso está en la parte de comentarios, con múltiples "aportes" de un sujeto apodado "Canada Guy" que, con sus argumentos refritos, recuerda a cierto visitante de la misma geografía que cada tanto tenemos por estos lares.
