Carbon Footprint Pledge

Posted on 06/02/2007 3:17:47 PM PDT by FractalMan

Today I thought of the following pledge as my commitment to helping the environment:

"I pledge to have a smaller actual carbon footprint than Al Gore."

Maybe it is too subtle for the global warming alarmists to understand though.

I promise to do what I can to increase my carbon footprint and offset the carbon credit fraud.

Make sure you put the keys away in a safe place, you never know when your SUV will escape and go on a rampage

I'm sure you never want to read the headlines in your local paper "SUV kills local man"

Al Gore’s mansion uses more than twice the electricity in one month than the average household does in an entire year..

I’m still waiting for Algore to send me $25,000 to refrain from air conditioning my house.

Waiting, waiting.....

I pledge to stop drinking milk at night after chugging a few beers, thus greatly reducing my carbon "emmisions."

Well, uhhh, I will cut back.

Being personally (and proudly) responsible for 67.2MW of new wind energy under construction in SW Pennsylvania, my C-footprint is smaller than all of Hollywood and Algore combined!

I pledge to burn precious, irreplaceable fossil fuels every day of the year in my oil burning 4 wheel drive truck. In addition, to celebrate the warm days of summer and to facilitate the trend toward global warming and more temperate winters, I pledge to burn charcoal in my grill and barbeque red meat with a high frequency. Further, I pledge to shoot holes in old refrigerators and rats at the county dump to release freon into the atomosphere and to kill off species I consider pests.
