I thought this was a set-up for a GGG ping abouut the origins of our sleep-cycle and naps...

[csvset]

Oh sure, blame it on the caveman! You'll be hearing from our lawyers!

All these idiots are going to have such egg on their faces, when it is clear that extra carbon dioxide is the result of the Sun warming the planet, and is not the cause of it. All of that wasted effort for naught.

Since the average human produces about two pounds of Carbon Dioxide per day by respiration, the best way to be carbon neutral is to stop breathing.

‘organic coffees and teas’? People who raise organically grown plants use manure instead of chemicals for fertilizer. Manure is the agent that gets E. coli into our food chain. Remember the bad spinach last year? It was organically grown.

When the environmentalists were successful in having the insecticide DDT taken off the market, malaria became rampant again Africa.

How much death and destruction are these environmental loonie dictators going to be allowed to cause?

By not flying my jet plane, which I don’t have, I have built up millions of units of carbon neutral credits. I plan to offer these credits for sale to people who fly a lot in jets.

Financing available. Send for Free Kit.

That IS ultimately what the Environmentalists want. Everyone should stop breathing, but them.

Hey, would anyone like to buy a carbon offset offset? Just send me some money and I will go out into the desert and burn an old tire to offset the offset of the ecofreak of your choice.

What brought on this global warming? It certainly wasn't an idling SUV or a lavish wedding. Maybe it was something our ancestors did.

Uh, no, it's a natural process the earth goes through every so often. The sun's output increases, more rays strike the planet, the global temperature rises. It's not rocket science.

the greenhouse gas emissions we create every time we drive our cars, take a plane, or turn on our computers."

Or breathe...

I promise not to drive my car on Sundays.

Send me $1,000,000.

Cash.

You could accomplish the same thing and have a lot more fun by driving a high-powered muscle car and popping the clutch on a revved-up engine.

Won't work. Corpses give off vast amounts of methane as they decompose. Embalming uses large amounts of formaldehydye, a carbon compound. If only you had had the forethought to have never been conceived, you would have a chance.

LOL!

“How do we do this, you may ask? We’re supposed to “offset your own emissions.” if you pardon the expression, by making an equal donation to “wind farms, solar installations, or energy efficiency projects.”

US taxpayers are already contributing our “nickel” through wind farms and other “clean” energy sources. For wind farms - there is a production tax credit (PTC) in which we all are taxed on a per kW hr basis.
