Idiots

Being succinct helps reduce global warming too! Maybe they can not eat, take off their clothes, hold their breath till they turn blue.(that's harder than fasting and I think would indicate real dedication) All these things go a long way towards positive climate change.

Ya gotta love liberals. When they're upset at something, they either stop eating or take their clothes off.

Two questions you can get these idiots on. 1) How much CO2 should be in the atmosphere? and 2) How much CO2 is there in the atmosphere now? If they are bright enough (doubtfully) to answer these questions. Then the follow up should be Well then why is atmospheric CO2 not increasing with anything resembling proportionality (or even significantly) with levels emitted from us evil humans. My guess is that they will immediately invoke something resembling the precautionary principle.

The Matlacks are veterans of social movements of the 1960s and 1970s. They've marched, signed petitions and even switched to a (almost, for Jim - gotta love Jim's commitment to the cause) vegan diet. But fasting is a unique experience, they said.

fasting is a unique experience for them ... that would put it right up there with thinking ...

becomes more real to them every day as pollution builds up in the atmosphere, trapping heat and slowly changing the planetary climate.

Silly people. Anthropogenic global warming is unproven.

It's hot as the hinges of hell in Arizona today. I'm going to eat a little extra in order to protest that. Fellow Freepers are welcome to join me.

Thank God they're just starving themselves. I could have been worse - they could've taken off their clothes and posed for a fund raiser calander for whatever moonbat organization has them all reved up.

Mainers doing quite enough to fight global warming by simply being non-productive.

Good of them all to co-locate.

I admire their commitment. It takes years of living stupid, practicing stupid and speaking stupid to be stupid 100% of the time.

Nationwide, about 125 people are "fasting to slow global warming" this week - avoiding meals during the Group of Eight summit in Scotland - in hopes of demonstrating their resolve

When they die from starvation, and their bodies grow cold
Global warming will be reduced

Keep up the good work.!
