OH NO! What's a liberal to do? Provide nice parkland for families and spew out many more tons of evil CO₂ hauling compost waste? Or deny families that wonderful parkland and, at the same time, avoid all those unnecessary trips in those earth-destroying, emissions belching trucks?

It's no wonder liberals need EcoTherapy help to get through the day.

They can do both. Just turn it into a composting park and then they can have picnics among the composting piles. When they are finished they don’t have far to walk to throw away some of their garbage.

You haven’t been gone a week and PA has a major crisis of epic proportions! Something doesn’t smell right about this story..

The trucks would add 1,100 metric tons of carbon dioxide a year,

It would take 126,343 gallons of Diesel to create 1100 metric tons of CO2.

Even if you assume they get only 6 miles to the gallon that would be over three quarters of a million truck/miles a year to shift the compost.

The distance between the two sites is 9.7 miles so that means each truck round trip is 19.4 miles.

Assuming a 5 day work week, that would require 150 round trips per day, every weekday of the year to create that much CO2.

Assuming an 8 hour work day, that would be a truck every three minutes.

That's a LOT of Compost.
