Ok, not actually good, but mating with short people is better for the planet than having tall kids.
However, I try to maximize my carbon footprint as I am much more concerned about a future ice age impacting my progeny down the road than any fictional warming threat. But I don't have enough arrogance to think I make an iota of difference.
As someone who is a bit 'vertically challenged' I guess I should let the leftists who read this forum know 'you're welcome.'Quote:
Altman's solution?Yep, there's another box to check off in your search for that perfect partner: the shorter, the better. According to Altman:Quote:
When you mate with shorter people, you're potentially saving the planet by shrinking the needs of subsequent generations. Lowering the height minimum for prospective partners on your dating profile is a step toward a greener planet.Uh-huh, not insane in the least.Quote:
Short people don't just save resources, but as resources become scarcer because of the earth's growing population and global warming, they may also be best suited for long-term survival (and not just because more of us will be able to jam into spaceships when we are forced off this planet we wrecked).
Finally, Altman's vision of the perfect future is almost as nutty as her view of the present:We're obviously going to need to redesign grocery stores in the future, gang. We're either going to need shorter shelves or perhaps…Quote:
The future I envision is different: I want my children's children to know the value of short. I want them to call themselves "short drinks of water" with "legs for minutes." While one yells, "I'm the shortest," I hope the other will bend his knees to gain an advantage, shouting, "No, I'm the shortest!"
