Gore To Save New Planet

According to the AP:

For the first time astronomers have discovered a planet outside our solar system that is potentially habitable, with Earth-like temperatures, a find researchers described Tuesday as a big step in the search for "life in the universe."

The planet is just the right size, might have water in liquid form, and in galactic terms is relatively nearby at 120 trillion miles away.

Scientists, while excited about the discovery, are concerned that those inhabiting the planet may not know the dangers of global warming.

Former Vice President Al Gore believes that it's not too late to warn the possible population of the planet about the floods, droughts, famine, and wars they will certainly face due to inhabitant-created climate change.

"My God, we have to find a way to get out there," said Gore. "We have to warn them about global warming and tell them how to live to avoid such a catastrophe."

Skeptics were quick to inform the former vice president that life on the newly-discovered planet is only a theory and it is possible we may never know if the planet is inhabited by life, let alone intelligent life.

"Theory, huh?" said Gore. "Then it must be true."

Gore then promised to produce and star in a documentary based on the so-called "theory" that there is intelligent life on the Earth-like planet and that the inhabitants are the main cause of global warming on their fragile planet.

Sheryl Crow plans a world tour on the planet following the release of the film.
