Why are we even here? Personally, I mull over this late at night, staring at my ceiling, contemplating the appealing permanence of death's cold embrace. But here I am, writing yet another article because apparently, people find profound life affirming messages in the strangest of places – like a man flying around the world in a sun-hugger. Yes, that’s Bertrand Whatchamacallit in his solar-powered tech marvel, pie in the sky literally!
After buzz-killing around the globe, he's now on a self-imposed quest – finding 1,650 ways money and Mother Earth can hug it out, proving that cash and conservation can indeed coexist. Initially aiming for a mere 1,000, he’s clearly an overachiever. The foundation he whipped up is now a bizarre bazaar of profitable planet-saving gizmos.
From concrete that’s meaner and leaner (thanks to steel salad – yeah, it’s a thing) to LED streetlights auditioning for a role in an off-grid Broadway show, Bertrand's ventures are eclectic. Is it just me, or does pitching eco-friendly disco lights seem a tad optimistic for a planet that could use a nice-sized icepack right about now?
You have chimneys blowing recovered kisses back to factories, and cities getting steamy with geothermal love – my kind of heating. And it’s all tagged 'efficient' by the Solar Impulse Efficient Solution label – a sticker really, but makes investors swoon.
Yet, amid this eco-profit parade, I'm here pondering if my next article could be on ways to efficiently exit this cosmic gag. But I digress. Life, or something like it, goes on – filled with articles about people too busy saving the world to contemplate the sweet oblivion that awaits us all.
So, as I wrap up, here’s a thought: if we’re all going to die alone, might as well do it saving a buck or two, right? Or maybe just dying alone. Ha!
