Is there a Gangnam Style for the Environment?

No comments
I think most of us, if not all, know what Gangnam Style is.  For those who have not been affected by the craze (you'll probably be glad), it's a Korean teen-bopping song sung by a not so teen-looking Korean man called Psy.  And, while he's rapping, he's dancing as though he's on a horse - craziness, right?  If you want to see him in action, just google Gangnam Style by Psy.

But why am I talking about Gangnam Style?  Well, I was really amazed how a really cheesy, if not ridiculous-looking dance move, can become extremely popular in under 6 months - he's hit 473,505,570 views as of today (that's too big a number to translate into words!!).  Not to mention that the majority of us do not have any idea what Psy is rapping about unless someone translates it for us.  Suddenly, people across the globe are making Gangnam Style parodies, the famous (e.g. Britney Spears, Ellen) want to learn the new moves, and even the schools are teaching the kids how to dance it (well, at least in my son's school!).  Someone press the STOP button, please!  Why can't we get the same kind of response when it's about environmental issues that need to be tackled immediately?  Are we saying that we'd rather be associated with a horsey move (no offence to Psy) than a green movement?  We need a gangnam style response for the environment!!
