The Green Room: Daniel Craig's New Ride
Posted by Joshua W. Jackson on February 9, 2007 - 7:22am.

It was a topsy-turvy week for environmentalists who happen to be fans of James Bond. On the upside, Pierce Brosnan was awarded Germany's Golden Camera award for his environmental stewardship. However, newer Bond Daniel Craig has reportedly purchased a new SUV so ridiculously large he can't even figure out how to park it. Optimists say Craig is very aware of the threat of global warming, and is simply ignoring it until he wows us all with a startlingly clever last-minute escape when he's tied to a sinking ice cap.

Music star Sheryl Crow and producer/eco-hero Laurie David scheduled a two-week bus tour across Texas and the Southeast, in which David and Crow will spread the word about global warming and reach out to the middle of the country. Presumably, the vehicle will be a hybrid and the emissions of the trip offset. Nonetheless, hoity-toity New York and California -based organizers of the crusade have prepared speeches explaining the apparent hypocrisy in a language they assume even the commonfolk can understand.

Melissa Etheridge, who's nominated for an Oscars for her theme song to the smash hit global warming documentary An Inconvenient Truth, is reportedly more nervous about the upcoming ceremony than she has been about the Grammys, saying, "It's a hundred times more intense. ...They have rules, and they do things by the rules." Ms. Etheridge did not specify whether these "rules" were responsible for Sylvester Stallone owning more Academy Awards than Martin Scorsese.

Pop musician James Blunt has announced that he finds attention from gossip columnists to be "...unhealthy, especially when we have things like... global warming going on." Gossip columnists have responded by reporting that James Blunt has announced that he finds attention from gossip columnists to be "...unhealthy, especially when we have things like... global warming going on."

While John Travolta's reputation as a high-emissions polluter has been well-documented because of his private plane ownership, recently leaked photos suggest that Travolta also enjoys playing dress-up when indulging in his pilot fantasies. Rumors suggest that Travolta also occasionally dresses up as a doctor or a lawyer, but never a climatologist.

I am always saddened to hear that a celeb has purchased another SUV... But my guess is that Craig is trying to wash away the taste of being the first Bond to drive a very dinky looking economy size Ford rental car in a movie. Since the last Bond was so good, perhaps we give him a past if they promise to make the next Bond villian more "Cheney-esque"?
