Commissioner Sheldon admires Carbon-Neutrality by Adage & Simpson
Like many of you, I grew up perplexed by the tale of The Emperor’s New Clothes. For those not familiar with the story, let me bring you up to speed: An emperor who cares more about clothes than his kingdom commissions two tailors who promise him the finest suit of clothes from the most beautiful cloth.

The emperor is gulled by his own arrogance and greed; the con-artist tailors go on a spending spree.
