(CNSNews.com) -White House Science Advisor John Holdren says the global goal is to have world-wide carbon dioxide emissions “close to zero by 2100.”

As part of the White House “Open For Questions” video posted last week Holdren was asked: “Do you know the rate of reduction in carbon emissions the world would have to achieve in order to prevent an unstoppable process of methane release from the Arctic areas?”

“No one knows for sure how much warming would be enough to produce this result, but it's thought to be considerably less likely to happen if the ultimate warming is less than 2 degrees Celsius, that is 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit above the pre-industrial value, than

I'm no science brainiac, but wouldn't reducing CO2 to near zero mean the end of life on earth as we know it?

Hey, what about the sock-puppet’s extremely costly vacation (at taxpayers’ expense) . . . what about all that CO2? Huh? Hello?

Please, Procon, don’t bother Holdren the Insane with facts. He’s been low on oxygen for decades which was why Obama hired him in the first place.

Remember the White House’s hiring practices - “If they’re insane, they’re the right people for us”.

Any doubts? - William Ayers, Vann Jones, Anita Dunn, Susan “Miss Video Tape” Rice, Hillary The Cuckhole Clinton, and presidential advisor Al Sharpton.

Yes, only in America and North Korea can the insane rise to great heights in government.

So, what does this moron intend to do about Volcanos or rain forest natural decay, the largest sources of CO2, by exponential percentages....

Require that monkeys in the Amazon buy Carbon Credits?

Exactly!

And think of all the pot plants that would die; our politicians would have to start snorting bath salts.

Never mind the deep-sea hydrothermal vents (particulary “white smokers”) that emit liquid carbon dioxide.
