    Actor Danny Glover believes that the Haitian earthquake was caused by climate change and global warming:

    Says Glover: “When we see what we did at the climate summit in Copenhagen, this is the response, this is what happens, you know what I’m sayin’?” His obscene opinion would be bigger news if Glover had – in the manner of others – idiotically blamed a less-fashionable deity.

    I haven't seen the movie yet. Without spoiling it, does something go terribly wrong at some point?

    Here's what I thought was a phenomenal column on 2012. It certainly sums up my feelings about these things.
