Because nothing will bring back the ice caps (that actually haven’t gone anywhere) and save the polar bears (who seem to be doing just fine, thank you) like some guy who needs a haircut and a shower walking barefoot across America.
This guy is walking across America barefoot to protest climate change https://t.co/eXVuKBMtfy

According to Vice, that hippie in question is Mark Baumer who has walked across the country before, but last time he did it in his shoes. Apparently he can only save the earth though if he’s barefoot; he is also walking to raise money for an environmentalist group called FANG Collective which resists the natural gas industry, man.
At this time Baumer has raised a little more than $3000.
Psh, at that amount he should put his damn shoes on.
Has anyone told him it's not real???

Totally serious and pretty hilarious. Heh.
Weird, I touched a hot stove to protest the autumnal equinox.

Safe bet.
a real serious protestor and difference maker would do it in nothing but a g string baby.

Ummmm no. Yikes.
and just like that, @BarackObama awarded him a medal for the difference he made. #climatechange AKA #WEATHER

Don’t give Obama ANY ideas. We can hear him now, “This barefoot hippie is a hero … who desperately needs to take a shower.”
