This post, written by Manila Ryce, originally appeared on The Largest Minority
In the latest episode of 30 Rock, NBC creates a new mascot named Greenzo (played by David Schwimmer), to cash in on the environmentalist movement. Greenzo’s slogan is: “Saving the Environment While Maintaining Profitability,†and the character successfully promotes energy efficient GE products (like Gore does in real life) for the network. Unfortunately, the actor who plays Greenzo develops a conscience and becomes a real environmentalist. The network realizes they’ve lost control of him when he blames the super-rich on live TV for not doing enough to combat global warming. Greenzo gets fired for suggesting the rich should pay higher taxes, Al Gore is summoned, and hilarity ensues.
