What's really scary isn't that they will do something about it, it's that they don't have a clue about what to do besides throw money at it, or raise consumer prices as the after-effects of regulation.

Every day I go to bed, I get up to a new and changed world.

OMG! Causality! I have to quit smoking because everytime I flick my bic I increase the surface temperature in Europe!
The real cause of GW is that I changed my diet to Brocolli only, and the resulting methane gas is being used to power my entire subdivision; which then puts out more CO2 than it should.

Indeed. I beleive we would petition to have the EPA add dihydrogen oxide to the list of pollutants next to carbon dioxide. Perhaps we could even tax emissions of such a deadly greenhouse gas. Heated swimming pools and hot tubs should be banned (sorry Al Gore), as should any process where the most powerful and evil solvent on earth is converted to a gaseous state. This should include the anthropogenic processes of making tea and coffee, of using heated water for showering, and any activity (exercise, sex) which leads it increased metabolic rates which correspond to alarmingly high emissions of dihydrogen oxide and its evil counterpart carbon dioxide. We have a serous problem here..

You had me until you banned coffee and sex...

Kinda like giving up the things you enjoy, so you can live longer ........ and be miserable.

I gave up sugar when diag'd with type 2 diabetes, that meant all the things that taste good. I was happy for the first 25 pounds off.
I'm not giving up sex and coffee so someone with oceanfront property can stay oceanfront.
My yard is 30 feet above water level, bring it on.

Chuckles...how about just giving up sex? I mean, c'mon...isn't two minutes once a year worth it to stop globalwarming??
