This is diametrically opposed to what the Rolling Stones wanted to do.
Who's going to bury the last guy?
but but but.if CO2 becomes illegal, and we reduce CO2 from our climate what are the trees going to breathe??
If the trees run out of CO2, could the world run out of oxygen???
I never thought the world could be saved with a paint brush. Now thats scientific!!
But how much petroleum would have to be used to produce the millions of gallons of paint required?
Maybe better paint all dem Africans white too——snort! guffaw!
I say we paint the buildings chartreuse. Then no-one will be offended. /s
The answer to starvation is a subsidy for artichokes.
But Ayn Rand grasped the role of the mind in all aspect of business. Late in the novel, Dagny Taggart observes the reign of Cuffy Meigs—a kind of railroad czar empowered as chief regulator of the industry—and surveys the havoc that his arbitrary decrees wreak on the rational planning of private businesses.
That the central "planning" of government actually consists of the disruption of rational planning by millions of private individuals is a point that had already been made by pro-free-market economists like Ludwig von Mises. Ayn Rand grasped that these economic principle were not dry, academic abstractions, but dramas played out in the real world—that the laws of economics are a matter of life and death, of triumph or tragedy.She knew that no train schedules could be maintained any longer, no promises kept, no contracts observed, that regular trains were cancelled at a moment's notice and transformed into emergency specials sent by unexplained orders to unexpected destinations—and that the orders came from Cuffy Meigs, sole judge of emergencies and of the public welfare. She knew that factories were closing, some with their machinery stilled for lack of supplies that had not been received, others with their warehouses full of goods that could not be delivered. She knew that the old industries—the giants who had built their power by a purposeful course projected over a span of time—were left to exist at the whim of the moment, a moment they could not foresee or control. She knew that the best among them, those of the longest range and most complex function, had long since gone—and those still struggling to produce, struggling savagely to preserve the code of an age when production had been possible, were now inserting into their contracts a line shameful to a descendant of Nat Taggart: "Transportation permitting."
OK scientist, come out and paint my house!
I might even buy the paint.
Chuck Norris silly
Or to put it another way - “Greed is good”.
HA! And in 1975 when ‘science’ was telling us we were all going to freeze/starve to death, they recommended painting the arctic ice with soot!

I thought of this years ago (even though I thought AGW was a hoax)I suggested painting all roofs white.

Yep, stop plowing snow from roads and highways too, and alternative energy snowmobiles for those who need transportation during the winter months
