Happy Birthday, Alex Salmond! May your day be brighter than Scotland's renewable energy ambitions and warmer (but not too warm!) than global climate targets. Your tireless advocacy for sustainability has inspired many to embrace wind turbines over bagpipes—though both can certainly stir up quite a breeze!From leading the Scottish National Party into historic victories as First Minister in 2007, to passionately championing environmental awareness worldwide, you've shown us that politics can indeed have heart—and humor. Here's hoping this year brings you plenty of laughter and fewer carbon emissions; after all, you're proof we don't need fossil fuels to fuel great leadership!
