Hi there, fellow global warming activist! 
I keep telling myself "whatever it takes." 
I'll do whatever it takes to make Congress take action to  increase energy 
independence and stop global warming. But, man, it's a lot  harder than I 
thought. 
_Watch  episodes one, two, three and four of "Project Phin" to see for  
yourself._

First I thought I just had to talk to people. Tell them what was going  
wrong. But I guess passing out fliers in the shower at my gym wasn't such  a good 
idea. Hindsight is 20/20. 
So when I got a few famous people to help out, I thought all my  problems 
were solved. Honestly... like any other American, I was sure that  celebrity 
spokespeople would be my salvation. Wow, was I wrong. Again.  They each had their 
own "interesting" ideas for how to get the word  out... 
It started with Ben Affleck wearing a corn suit scaring the crap out of  me 
in episode one -- an interesting moment in energy advocacy itself. And  it kept 
getting worse in episodes two, three and four with Matt Damon,  Sarah 
Silverman (and her mom), Jennifer Garner, Tobin Bell and Joshua  Jackson. 
_Watch  episodes one, two, three and four -- you'll see what I mean._

My dreams are haunted by a corny Ben Affleck (perhaps he would not have  
scared me so much dressed as a battery). I don't know if I'll ever be able  to 
look at Sarah Silverman again -- not to mention her mother. And I would  call the 
cops on Joshua Jackson if the man didn't scare me to death. I've  gone 
through hell to make this video, all to drive home the point that we  need to 
increase fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. 
_So  please, please, please watch it, send a message to Congress, and tell 
your  friends._

I'm gonna do whatever it takes. What will you do?
