Conclusion - fitness fanatics are human hummers.

Where can I get a human hummer?

[Lurker]

Oh for crying out loud.

Now we're all supposed to just sit around and starve to death.

I swear to Heaven above one of these days I'm going to run into one of these meatheads who is spouting off this crap in public. Then I'm going to pummel him or her unconscious with something totally organic. My fists come to mind.

I’m getting a migraine.

And thus, justification for the elite to reduce the population of the crud...us.

[RepublitarianRoger]

I’m so worried about global warming, I need to go take a walk to calm down.

A wooden baseball bat is “organic”...........

[Abathar]

Next time my wife bugs me to loose some weight I will point this out to her, if I exercise it off then I am hurting the environment. I'm going to do it tonight just to hear her response...

[Kimmers]

Please refrain from eating when you return from your walk........

“Conclusion - fitness fanatics are human hummers.”

LMAO - good one, Maynerd.

I’m off to the gym in a few minutes; however, I’ll make sure that I buy a few carbon credits before I leave.

“Then I’m going to pummel him or her unconscious with something totally organic. My fists come to mind.”

That would require to much carbon.
You would need a more carbon neutral way to pummel someone.

Sometimes the best argument against absolute BS is more absolute BS.

They're just absurd. They're right; we're all better off dead.

Lease or own, either way its going to cost you big time......

[rhetorica]

Food production is now so energy-intensive that more carbon is emitted providing a person with enough calories to walk to the shops than a car would emit over the same distance. The climate could benefit if people avoided exercise, ate less and became couch potatoes. Provided, of course, they remembered to switch off the TV rather than leaving it on standby.

Now, this is an environmental movement I can support!

[indcons]

"Where can I get a human hummer?"

Here, here, and other places.

[Spktyr]

Environmentalists will not be happy until we’re all huddled together for warmth, slowly freezing to death in the dark.

[NewHampshireDuo]

Goes to show - when you believe in and promote something as illogical as AGW, then more illogic and stupidity is spawned.

[RightWhale]

Cars are cheaper than bicycles.
