Klaatu? Is that You? Where have you BEEN? I've been WAITING on this Morg-forsaken planet for 52 scaaaazing YEARS!!

You still remember the traditional Greek we spoke as etherlings, right?

. Συμφωνώ. Τους σκοτώστε όλοι. Πάρτε την απομίμηση. Είμαι έτοιμος. Ακόμη και το περιττωματικό θέμα μου βρωμαά. Είμαι ντροπιασμένος

I'm on board. I've had enough. Set loose the winds.

I can't remember where I read this, but it was said that sometime in the Middle ages people were cutting so many trees down for the purpose of making coffins, that they had to make laws against it. Found this in a wikipedia article:

Wikipedia: Europe

Probably eighty to ninety per cent of Europe was once covered by forest.[124] It stretched from the Mediterranean Sea to the Arctic Ocean. Though over half of Europe's original forests disappeared through the centuries of deforestation, Europe still has over one quarter of its land area as forest, such as the taiga of Scandinavia and Russia, mixed rainforests of the Caucasus and the Cork oak forests in the western Mediterranean. During recent times, deforestation has been slowed and many trees have been planted. However, in many cases monoculture plantations of conifers have replaced the original mixed natural forest, because these grow quicker.


I think we've pretty much behaved like locust at every point of our existence, it's just that now there are so many of us that the damage is hard to ignore.

About five years back I was watching the Discovery channel. The program showed scientists in Australia vaccinating or injecting sheep with some chemical that was supposed to make them stop passing gas. I couldn't believe my eyes and ears, the fact that this WASN'T a joke! Passing gas is natural, and if it wasn't necessary at some point why would the function still exist millions of years later? People's actions and ideas really fascinate me sometimes.

I would like to offer a more rational approach to take care of this evil gas. I will calculate how much co2 each of you will produce in a year given statistics like the automobile you drive, your appliances and what not. With this statistic I will be able to know how many trees I should plant for your carbon footprint each year. The trees will offset your carbon footprint thereby making the carbon you produce null and void. I will call this activity carbon credits. I will sell them cheap to first comers. Anyone care to buy carbon credits in lieu of killing yourselves?

sadly. what is funnier than your OP is the people who apparently have no sense of humor. These sad sad little people think everything is super serial. I will have some of your kool aid as long as I can put a bit of bourbon in it. I want to be happy when my black nikes turn toes up.

Volcanoes causing CO2, what a bunch of dorks.

CO2 nonsense? Are you crazy?

CO2 IS AN EVIL MAN MADE POISONOUS GAS!

WE MUST FIGHT CO2!


Don't feed the troll. Every post this guy is putting up is blatantly sarcastic and yet everyone who responds to him seems to somehow think he is being serious. He's taking on the role of what he has defined as an extremist environmentalist. However, no one in the world has ever claimed that CO2 is manmade and exists nowhere in the universe.

For the uneducated, it's known as setting up a strawman argument. He's painting himself as his stereotypical opponent and then making that opponent's argument so weak as to make it appear foolish.

Seriously, have you people ever participated in a conversation with another human being? I am not sure which is more pathetic - the OP who thinks he's clever or the neocons who feel heroic shouting down a nonexistent opponent. The poster above is too kind when he says the responders simply lack a sense of humor - the phrase he's looking for is common sense.

Things are funny when they are clever, ironic, or surprising. A neocon going on a false tirade is none of these things. Turn on Fox News at any given time and find the same.

I've been on board since the day I was born. Humans are out numbered by all the other animals put together. It's those animals that are polluting our atmosphere with CO2. My solution has been to eat those animals in order to reduce their total CO2 emissions to an acceptable level. It's a big job, but I'm sure everything will come out alright in the end.

Since we expel this evil gas each time we breathe, maybe everyone who supports reducing the amount of this awful gas in our atmosphere should participate in a "No Breathing Day", which could be an annual event in which CO2 bashers hold their breath for 24 hours as a huge first step in reducing CO2 emissions.

That would be a great start in support of their cause.

This whole Global Warming thing is such a scam. Now the CO2 thing.

Just wait until the government taxes sporting events and concerts for when thousands gather together and increase that bad bad bad Co2 output. And of course all ticket prices will raise too. You all know it's coming, too!

They won't stop there! Your household will be taxed on how many people live in the same residence. We will soon be taxed on that number along with how big, or small, your home is.

Oh, and once the Health Care is passed before this year is up, and you know it will --no if's and's or but's -once the bill is passed the amount you pay will be determined on MANY things, including how many people live with you. The more hot air, the higher lifestyle risk you are and therefore the more it will cost to give you "quality" care.

Nobody saw it coming, but when they outlawed smoking from businesses, I foresaw it coming.

Welcome to the 2 next wars my fellow ATS'ers --The War on Air and the War on Water.

And you ain't seen nothing yet! The noose around all of our necks is tightening at a frightening pace! Why go after freedoms when they can conjure up a make-believe global (global is the key word they have to sell to you!), event and they can now go after things that they HAVE NO RIGHT TAXING --our air! The right to do something doesn't mean that doing it is right!

Crooks! Whatever God you all believe in, really must be saddened by how far we have fallen from grace. The corruption is poisoning this air we breathe!

Please folks, start writing your Congressmen! Start writing the President! Write everyone!
