Rainn Wilson changes his name to raise awareness for climate change

Rainn Wilson, who is best known for his role as Dwight Schrute in the U.S. version of The Office and was also recently seen in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, has changed his name to Rainnfall Heat Wave Extreme Winter Wilson to raise awareness about the environmental crisis and rapid warming of the Arctic region.
Wilson made the change to support a campaign being run by climate change awareness body Arctic Basecamp, of which he is a board member, to coincide with the United Nation’s COP 27 meeting which is currently taking place in Egypt.
“With the help of my scientist friends at Arctic Basecamp, I’ve changed my name to Rainnfall Heat Wave Extreme Winter Wilson. This is not a joke, I’m as serious as the melting Arctic, which amplifies global risks including extreme weather events around the globe,” said Wilson in a video address posted on the social networks by Arctic Basecamp.
“I’m hoping this name change brings attention to this growing… er, melting issue. We need world leaders at COP27 to take notice and take action. The Arctic is melting at millions of litres per second, yet this problem can’t seem to make a name for itself, so it’s up to us to make a name for it.”

Wilson encouraged people to also modify their name to bring attention to the issue, using the Arctic Basecamp “name-changer” on website ArcticRiskName.org, and then change their social media profile with the result.
Is the OT interested in modifying their names?

Did climate change kill his career?

Yeah, Dwight would lose his shite over something like this. I didn't realize the actor was some crazy goofy wokester, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Wilson should be changed next as they are a purveyor of leather goods.

Honestly, I'm not sure this is for attention. He's genuinely just a bit of a weird guy

This is one of those things that’s not gonna have the affect he is hoping for
Other than a glance at the article, most people are gonna not give a frick

I just want to know if lives his life as though it's that important. Ed Begley Jr is one I can at least respect because he practices what he preaches.

A guy named Rainn is a bit of an ecological hippie? Shocking
