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?
