Thanks to the still-damaged facilities in and around campus, the lack of power in some parts of the tri-state area and the utter decimation of the Jersey Shore, the whole of the undergraduate body has been reminded that global warming is still a thing, apparently.

Citing the fact that historically rare storms are now occurring with surprising regularity, the planet’s oceans are the warmest they’ve ever been and arctic ice coverage reached its all-time low this past summer, most Georgetown students have realized that this climate change thing is still going on.

Whereas most students had previously been in a state of total apathy in regards to the issue that many students thought Al Gore fixed, the forced hibernation caused by the out-of-season Hurricane Sandy has caused many people to change their view to ‘passively opposed.’

Stating that they will favor green initiatives on campus “as long as they aren’t too much of a hassle,” the change in opinion has been heralded as a step forward by many who passionately acknowledge the existence of man-made climate change, most of whom will continue protesting regardless of whether the issue is dealt with.
