This is laughable. Three environmental groups are targeting plants in the Maryland region because of mercury contamination. Paper mills and energy companies are in the crosshairs as this article reports only 1/70th of a teaspoon of mercury is needed to contaminate a 25-acre lake. Now for the laughable part: what happens to all of these CFL bulbs that are due to replace incandescent bulbs in 2012? They do contain mercury and, even with the most stringent recycling programs, many Americans are going to put them …

CNN has really outdone themselves this time. Remember hearing about how global warming was causing polar bear cannibalism recently in the news? Turns out, thanks to an article here by Anthony Watts, that the one documented occurrence happened in northern Alaska in 2004. Talk about recycling old news to push an agenda!

1.  Pollution is still bad.  Yes, pollution …

Gina Cobb makes some very valid points here. It’s a free country; if people are supposedly wanting to live a green lifestyle to save the planet, let them. Just as recycling isn’t mandatory where I live, why should the so-called solutions to global warming be mandatory?

PheistyBlog provides some insight into how she’s accosted by green images throughout her day and provides a list of global warming sins dictated by the Church of Climate Change.  Top of the list?  Driving an SUV, not recycling and using incandescent bulbs.

The global warming myth is nothing but a coalition of left-leaning environmentalists in this country and around the world continuing their desperate push to enact lifestyle-changing legislation and it’s become very apparent that your money and your lifestyle are the two targets of the climate change campaign.
