Today the cause in our spotlight is stopglobalwarming.org.

I can hear you asking: "So. What are they all about?"

Just kidding. I think you know. Stopglobalwarming.org is a "virtual march," bringing folks together to raise awareness about the urgency of the global warming problem and the need to solve it now.

How urgent? Let's see. A sampling of headlines from the last couple weeks goes like this:

"North Pole Could be Ice Free This Summer."

"Global warming could cause humanitarian crises, report shows."

"NASA Warming Scientist: 'This is the last chance."

"Extreme weather to increase with climate change."

Uh, yeah. That's pretty urgent.

There's more than 1.1 million marches on board. They need more. I hope you'll add your name.

And if you haven't already, join the i'm Initiative! You can make sure they get a donation every time you IM or send e-mail.

PS: Later today I'm posting a video interview I did with StopGlobalWarming.org's Director of Outreach, Lindsay Guetschow.  Check it out.

If you’re reading this, your BS detector is chirping like a smoke detector with a dicey 9-volt. As you’ve probably guessed, this blog is fictional, but the causes, and the i’m Initiative most certainly are not. The purpose of this blog is to raise awareness of the i’m Initiative and the worthy causes it helps. If we rubbed you the wrong way in the process that wasn’t our intention, so “sorry, our bad.” The alternate was something called an “e-mail blast.” But, believe us that’s not nearly as exciting as it sounds. A herd of well-compensated legal professionals in Redmond, Washington, says we also need to tell you something:
