An excellent question, that, and only I wish I had an exciting answer. Like maybe that Charlie Sheen movie The Arrival, where aliens invade earth and are secretly modifying our climate, was prescient. What better explanation for The Donald's haircut is there? Come to think of it, what better explanation for Charlie Sheen? But, no. The dull truth is that it's the same, tired, old story. Money. Moolah, the great spendoolicks, filthy lucre, the root of all evils, dinero. And lots and lots of it.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_money-euros.jpg
