Don’t Luddite Get You Down

We’ll have our global warming,
it’s gonna be the rage.
The benefits are forming
to stall the next ice age.

But, hark, what muffled grousing
the transom overflows,
as climate change arouses
funky festooned foes.

It’s a cascade of excresence
to make mankind regress
to living like a peasant
while using less and less.

Crank up the moth-balled factories
and turn the A/C down.
Build nuclear reactors
to light your life and town.

Plus ALL animal life generates CO2 in the process of living. The biggest category by far is insect life and the second biggest is fish. Termite respiration alone generates 10 times more CO2 than all fossil fuel sources combined. CO2 is mostly a trace gas measure of the total number of living insects. Insects do better as Earth exits its last ice age.

“No matter how clean we make our country India, China and third world pollution will be unaffected.”

And that should be a prerequisite for fixing climate change. Until 75% of all pollution is cleaned up, there will be no monetary contributions to climate change. It’s easily measurable.

“Climate Change” has become the defacto religion of the left, and it will be forced upon all the infidels.

I did challenge one person, asking if the US is really serious about combating “climate change,” when should we begin bombing the coal fired power plants and coal mines for the worst “climate villains,” since both contribute far more to “climate change” than the USA.
