The World's Address

V.C. Rogers, 7/27/11:
Oh, no! Mr. Earth will have to go to the cosmic 7-11, which is all the way out in orbit around Neptune, to get more sunblock! And that will mean that he'll have to spend too many galactic dollars for the space gas to fill up his solar scooter!

Is this supposed to be a commentary on global warming? (And, if so, does Rogers know that climate change is not due to any increase in solar radiation?) Or is this just another "Gosh, it gets hot in the summertime" cartoon?
