Best Person in the World!

Sir Richard BransonI would like to nominate Sir Richard Branson as the “Best Person in the World.”  In case you didn’t know, Branson is the head of Virgin Group and one of the most sucessful and adventurous business men in the world.  He’s the guy that made the aquada car/boat and then set the record for crossing the English Channel in an amphibious vehicle, the guy that made the swiss cheese looking spaceship that makes it out of the earths atmosphere, and now he’s the guy that has pledged $3 BILLION(!!!!) dollars to the development of energy sources that do not cause global warming.  He is planning to give 100% of profits from his five airlines and his train line over the next 10 years.

He made the announcement at Bill Clinton’s Global Innitiative Meeting in New York on  the 21st.  Branson credits the idea to a meeting he had with Al Gore a few months ago.  Al Gore, it seems, really is bringing the sexy back!

“Our generation has inherited an incredibly beautiful world from our parents and they from their parents,” Mr. Branson said. “It is in our hands whether our children and their children inherit the same world. We must not be the generation responsible for irreversibly damaging the environment.”

Sir Richard Branson, Best Person in the World!!!
