Former Vice President Al Gore said his conscience is regularly challenged
I was OK to this point in the story.

What's next? Voting for reduced flow toilets so that you can feel OK about having a dam release billions of gallons of water to keep your canoe afloat?

Excellent compilation of Gore's quotations. Where'd you get 'em? Any on Clinton and Carter?

That lard ass Gore should know that it takes 10 carbons to produce 1 calorie using farming methods (including organic). He should go on a diet and lose about 100 lbs. and quit jetting around the globe.

I wish one of these tree hugger types would pay me for my non-used CO2 credits. I think you can get a pack of 12 credits at the Piggly Wiggly pretty cheap.

The condescension and preaching that Gore and his fellow goofballs direct toward us peasants is amazing.
It doesn't matter to them that I live a frugal existence when it comes to electricity, fossil fuels and consumer products and the packaging they come in, and I reuse as many things as I can before disposing of them. I just got preached at a few months ago by some jerk who WASTES more energy than I USE and when I pointed that out to him he said HE was doing more for "the planet" because he voted for Gore and Kerry instead of Bush.
And these hypocritical fools are so abundant nowadays that you can't help but trip over them wherever you go.

An element is defined by the number of protons in a nucleus. The atomic weight of an element is the geometric average of the weights of all isotopes of the element (geometric because it is weighted by their relative abundance.) Deuterium is called deuterium because each atom has a neutron in addition to the proton. It is the same element with a different atomic weight (tritium is hydrogen with 2 neutrons). If you look at a periodic table of the elements, the atomic weight of hydrogen is 1.008, 1 for the proton and .008 for the extra neutrons in deuterium and tritium which are naturally occurring.

Reminder. Be very careful if the clerk asks, "Paper or plastic?" when you get to the cash register.The first time I heard that question, I thought the cashier was referring to cash versus credit card. Series. You can tell I seldom shop (other than car and boat stores).

Apparently, living a "carbon-neutral lifestyle" includes giving at least one of it's proponents $10 per ton of carbon dioxide saved. Can you say, scam? Behold:
YES! I Want to Join SELFS Carbon Neutral Club
Thats great! Its a quick, easy two-step:
Step One: Calculate your emissions by choosing a carbon calculator to work out what your personal emissions were for last year. For a choice of calculators, see www.earthfuture.com/climate/calculators.
Step Two: After using the calculator, click here to make your contribution to SELF, at $10 per ton. Welcome to SELFs Carbon Neutral Club!
You can also offset the emissions from a flights, or holiday. Go to www.chooseclimate.org/flying to calculate your emissions from flying, then return here to offset them, at $10 per ton.
Typical liberalism. I pledge $10 bucks! And get this: the organization that published this tripe is called SELF (Solar Electric Light Fund). You can donate money so they can use it to offset the emissions of the little people in "Bhutan, the Solomon Islands, Tanzania or one of the other countries where SELF works." Narcissus would be proud.

So how does all of his private jet setting and SUV transportation fit into this? people of "substance" get to do that

"Carbon neutral" is a scam. A liberal friend of mine said she thought it was a good idea. So I asked her what was going to happen to the money we sent to third world nations so that they wouldn't produce "green house" gasses. She said she didn't know. So then I pointed out that for money to be worth anything you have to buy something with it i.e. goods or services. So where are they going to get the goods from if they aren't producing things themselves? From the West. And what's that going to take to produce things? Energy! No savings in carbon whatsoever.
Another thing to ask Gore would be "Why just "carbon neutral"? Why not "carbon negative"? If you were at a concert where the concert goers left a bunch of trash and someone said it would destroy the earth don't you think they would pick up more than their own soda cup?

An excellent and spot on analysis of "global warming" at
http://www.americasfuture.net/1997/nov97/97-1123a.html
DeWeese calls global warming "the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the people of the world, bar none. Those who have been fighting against the green agenda have been warning that modern-day environmentalism has nothing whatsoever to do with protecting the environment," he observes. "Rather, it is a political movement led by those who seek to control the world economies, dictate development, and redistribute the world's wealth."

In high school, it was either biology or chemistry that we learned that life on Earth is carbon based. If Al is carbon neutral, no wonder he looks like a stone carving.

Actually diamonds are not rare at all - except in the retail market which is controled by a cartel.

With its 4 valance electrons, it's kinda hard not to be neutral toward carbon.
