I never believed and still don't believe in all that Global warming nonsense.I also don't believe in this climate change BS.I don't think people on this earth could destroy this planet even if they really wanted to no matter what they burned.I figured they would have killed the earth during the World war two years when they had no less than 150,000 coal burning locomotives around the world burning unscrubbed coal.You throw in a few hundred thousand factories,electrical power plants,steel mills,and houses that get their heat from coal and you have more CO2 produced in one hour than all the pollution our current planet produces in one month.Lets not even mention all the trucks and cars burning gasoline and diesel with no emmisons equipment.

This is and always be about money.Al gore is just sitting on his dumb butt talking to scientist trying to scare the world into the next crisis which he will get billions in kickbacks from the green Nazis who will convince him to sell their products.


No matter what we do it's never enough!

Recycling everything-Nope never enough.Gotta kill yourself to produce less.

Ethanol in Gasoline-Didn't change a thing except tripling the price of corn and making cars less fuel efficent by 15%.

Hybrid and electric cars-Didn't make any differnce except getting a free ride in the HOV lane.

CFL light bulbs-Triple the price of a regular light bulb but of course the power company raised your rates by 25% anyways due to lack or revenue.


Taking the bus or train-Didn't lower the price of oil or did it reduce the fair.Only increases in fairs and price of oil keeps going up despite a surplus.

Thanks for not telling me I'm doing it wrong....

Even if you don't by into the stories, I don't think it would be difficult to destroy Mother Earth if we wanted to...if we all wanted to, yes we could certainly get a violent reaction from her.

These two are the ones that crack me up the most.

Hybrid cars??? Electric cars???

Does anyone know what happens to a battery in cold weather?? Take your home flashlight and throw it in the freezer for a few hours. Pull it back out and see if it will light. Guess what. It won't. The batteries will be dead.

What makes the Greenies think that people in Northern climates are going to be stupid enough to buy an electric car in an environment that is going to cut in half ( at LEAST ) the battery life and efficiency? Batteries are not efficient, nor do they last in cold weather climates.

CFL light bulbs??? Absolutely brilliant and not in the luminous way. The inner coating contains mercury. Which everyone knows is terrible for not only the environment, but for people as well.

We get all these knee jerk reactions without any real thought put into them and the people of this country are left to suffer the consequences.

OH!!! I totally forgot about Ethanol!!!

This is GREAT!!!

Not only does Ethanol triple the price of corn, but it is ALSO extremely corrosive...and it's ALSO a very inefficient fuel source. Had the " knee jerkers " paid attention, they would have seen that Butanol is a MUCH better fuel source that comes from the very same product. But guess what...Butanol can be gotten, in high quantities from weeds like Sawgrass. OH!!! And it burns cleaner, more efficiently, and is less corrosive ( engine damaging ) than Ethanol. It also requires one or two fewer steps in the process ( making it cheaper to produce ) than Ethanol.

But...as usual...the knee jerkers got fixated on one thing and stuck with it to the exclusion of any better ideas.

Its a false campaign to say we are destroying earth, it wont go anywhere,,,its humans that can become extinct. When we dont take care of the environment, it will be US who disappear.

there is no irrefutable proof from either side to back up the green.org/Sean Hannity hypothesis as to whether it is or is not man caused.

I took a trip to Oregon last week, and went to Mt St Helens. If you want to see what kind of changes the earth can experience through one volcanic eruption I suggest you take a look.

Gee...let's see here....a full century of hooey concerning the weather and Man's impact on it.

2020s?

RIA Novisty(Russian News & Information Agency), February 8, 2007
"Instead of professed global warming, the Earth will be facing a slow decrease in temperatures in 2012-2015. The gradually falling amounts of solar energy, expected to reach their bottom level by 2040, will inevitably lead to a deep freeze around 2055-2060," he said, adding that this period of global freeze will last some 50 years, after which the temperatures will go up again."
