And if Global Warming Turns Out to be a Myth, So What?
Posted in Economy, Global Warming Hoax Lead Story on 26 August 2008

I recently read a comment on the Internet from a global warming activist that presented that exact same connotation.  If global warming turns out to be a myth, so what?  The narrow-mindedness and intense focus of climate change proponents on one issue, global warming, has the potential to cause massive economic failures globally.  The lack [...]

‘Green’ Mile High Music Fest Anything But
Posted in Lifestyle on 21 August 2008

A Mile HIgh Music Festival recently held in Colorado was billed as being green, but was anything but green.  Drinks were sold in recyclable plastic cups, but those who attended the event simply threw them to the ground without recycling them.  Those working the recycling centers at the event were reduced to just picking up [...]

PETA Requests Global Warming Footprint to be Included on Labels
Posted in Food on 18 August 2008

The environmentalist folks over at PETA are up to their regular shenanigans again.  Now they’re requesting Hormel, of which PETA owns 100 shares of stock, to place a label on their meat products to indicate the footprint being passed on to consumers through the purchase of the meat.  “If meat is on the menu, so [...]

How Much Does Gore Really Care About the Environment?
Posted in Al Gore on 8 August 2008

Since carbon dioxide is so [...]

Posted in Conspiracy on 4 August 2008

PM Harper: Dion’s Carbon Tax Just More Government Revenue
Posted in Carbon Tax on 1 August 2008

Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said earlier today that Stephane Dion’s carbon tax is not in place to lower Canada’s carbon footprint but, instead, is being used as an additional revenue stream for the Canadian government.  Harper continued to say that the tax will not be temporary and will not be revenue neutral if you [...]

Technology to Scrub CO2 from Atmosphere Opposed by Environmentalists
Posted in Conspiracy on 29 July 2008

(H/T:  Paul).  New technology to scrub carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, all in an effort to save the world, is being opposed by - surprise, surprise - environmentalists.  Although the technology to pull carbon from the air to reduce the overall carbon dioxide greenhouse gas footprint in the atmosphere - the primary gas that is [...]

Proud of My American Carbon Footprint
Posted in Commentary on 24 July 2008

I found this little carbon footprint calculator at some pro-global warming website and thought I’d plug in my numbers to see how I fare when compared to the rest of the world.  Even taking public transportation for the majority of the week and using substantially fewer miles on my vehicle than the national average, my [...]
