This stuff with wind power, solar power, battery cars, bicycles, aromatic candles (whoops carbon emissions), yadda yadda,....it's all around the edges.
We need another real war.
The invention of nuclear weapons has halted all cataclysmic wars because we don't want to see our children living in a radioactive wasteland. Obama is right. We should do away with all nukes, and then the deterrence from this scenario will be gone and we can have a god old fashioned world wide donnybrook probably over oil resources, and kill close to a billion people this time around. Then we should allow the casualties to die, and eliminate all foreign aid to the losers.
After we reduce the population by 20+% or so we'll have another30 years before we have to do it again.
And we can all wait it out at Ruth's Chris, the Old Homestead (NYC), Peter Luger's (NYC), Moishe's (Montreal), Le Severo (Paris), Jess and Jim's (KC), and the world shocking Doe's Eat Place (Greenville, Mississippi)
Or maybe a small to medium size nuclear war will do a good enough job that we can all get back to hunter-gatherer tribes and the calories expended in staying alive by the few people left will make it ok to eat as much meat as we can get.
I am still waiting for the brave gaian to come forward and say what we all really know these people who are certain humans are killing gaia think.People will need to consider turning vegetarian if the world is to conquer climate change, according to a leading authority on global warming.
In an interview with The Times, Lord Stern of Brentford said: "Meat is a wasteful use of water and creates a lot of greenhouse gases. It puts enormous pressure on the world's resources. A vegetarian diet is better."
Direct emissions of methane from cows and pigs is a significant source of greenhouse gases. Methane is 23 times more powerful than carbon dioxide as a global warming gas.
Lord Stern, the author of the influential 2006 Stern Review on the cost of tackling global warming, said that a successful deal at the Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December would lead to soaring costs for meat and other foods that generate large quantities of greenhouse gases.
There are too many people.

It sounds to me like Lord Stern of Donnybrook releases an awful lot of methane gas himself. Someone had better check his carbon footprint.
By the way, is it true what they say about men with large carbon footprints?
Damn...Doe's Eat Place. So fine!
I don't know. If swine and bovine flatulence is such a source of greenhouse gasses as they say, seems to me we should all be eating much more pork and beef to help reduce the number of cows and pigs running around belching and farting.
Followed, of course, by copiuos amounts of Guinness.
@Eproc...it's not the idea of being a vegetarian , I cook with TVP very frequently ..it's the ridiculous idea that this will MAKE THE DIFFERENCE, and every one should be COMPELLED to adhere to this ABSURDITY.
These people all recognize the real problem .. which to them is that we are killing the earth because WE EXIST AND REPRODUCE (to them, irresponsibly)
@MR .. indeed, the former is much better with the latter.
Finished with a nice creme brulee and Hennessy
paul mccartney was interviewed on tv standing for an alimentation project: every child from every school should not eat meat at least on mondays! i don´t know how far it went. anybody knows anything about it?!
he should eat shit too! lol :D
EPA - tell us what you really think :-)

see where he sucks money from.

climate change is bs!
Good links for the last 2 anon altho prison planet gives me that Larouchian nervous tick.
People who think we will end carbon emissions and save the planet by riding our bikes to work in Feb and freezing in the dark, while taking birth control and sterilizing each other are DERANGED and DELUSIONAL and should all be beat senseless with nerf bats by kindergartners.
It's ABSURD.
Let's just HAVE THE WAR.
We can wipe out the third world. Russia will help and China will stand aside. Then WE REALLY CAN plunder the resources of a depopulated geography and all go to the beach.
And OUR CHILDREN will have better lives.
I'd hate to think we can solve all this by science, incentive ingenuity, ambition self interest, and reward. That defeats the idea of GUILT. That cannot be allowed to occur.
UGH !!!
Anybody who thinks that they can "save the planet" is a concieted ignoramus. Humans have to save themselves from the planet, not the other way around. The Earth's temperatures have fluctuated constantly over its 4 billion year existence, with or without humans. If you want to effectively eliminate your carbon footprint to the highest extent, die and don't reproduce.
Humans have to save themselves from the planet, not the other way around.
Great point, Total.
In 1988, ... Dr. Koop announced that the American diet was a problem of “comparable” magnitude, chiefly because of the high-fat foods that were causing coronary heart disease and other deadly ailments.
...
Dr. Koop was expressing the consensus. He, like the architects of the federal “food pyramid” telling Americans what to eat, went wrong by listening to everyone else. He was caught in what social scientists call a cascade.
The recent history of consensuses is pretty bad .. global cooling in 1975, high-fat foods will kill you in 1988, WMD in Iraq in 2003, and today, AGW (Anthropogenic Global Warming). Everyone knew they were true, but no one could actually prove it conclusively. There was, and still is, little or no hard science to back up these claims, but everyone knows, or at least knew, them to be true.
Someone might want to remind them of the huge buffalo herds roaming the plains prior to European settlement of North America. I don't think they were taking "Beano" prior to eating the prarie grass.
These people might as well just tell everyone to off themselves. That's what they want. Regulate carbon. May as well regulate oxygen.
Anonymous,
LOL
That's the comment of the week.
