So, are they doing this to stop "global warming" / "climate change" or to produce what they think will be a cheaper energy from a waste byproduct? Because neither one is a serious concept.
We really should start disparagingly refering to these pod people as “warmers”.
Like “truthers”.
Ridicule. Alinsky. And all...
Snow in Foxboro for Patriots game. Earliest ever.
Nice try globalwarmingists.
“convert some of the methane gas released from the manure piles into power for a cheese factory and other businesses.”
Limburger?
Thanks.
The pod people are “warmers”.
We’re cooler.
>> turn methane gas released from the manure piles into power for a cheese factory
Mmmmmm - manure cheese - my favorite flavor. (Skeptics see the Monty python cheese shop skit.)
Exactly. Jon Stewart, Bill Maher, Rush Limbaigh built their careers on fun and profit from ridiculing politicians. And it worked for GOP to (barely) keep Al Gore out of the White House. And keep ridiculing them and defeat them wherever possible in 2010 and beyond.
"Warmers" sounds like fun.
If it makes for good economics with out tax subsidies it is a good idea. Otherwise it is not a good idea.
“We really should start disparagingly refering to these pod people as “warmers”.
Good idea. Go here and submit it

Global warming believers are cultists. Algore is their false god.
It’s asking for a definition, and a working example...
Any input from the group please? :)
Greely, home of University of Northern Colorado, UNC. Often call University of No Credit locally.
“warmer” a person who spews excess carbon dioxide screaming about man made global warming.
“the projects also potentially could turn cow dung into dollars.”
Could you imagine what they could accomplish in DC?
“We call it Underworld. That’s where Bartertown gets its energy.”
“What, oil? Natural gas?”
“Pigs.”
“You mean pigs like those?”
“That’s right.”
“Bulls**t!”
“No. Pig s**t.”
“What?”
“Pig s**t. The lights, the motors, the vehicles, all run by a high-powered gas called methane. And methane cometh from pig s**t.”
It changes economics, beyond recognition, by decree. We know how ethanol legislations worked out to make gas "cheaper, greener and cleaner".
Should President Barack Obama sign the bill, it would put a price on each ton of carbon dioxide released. That would drive up the cost of polluting fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas and lead to investment in cleaner sources of energy. Getting into the game now—like JBS and the investors eyeing Greeley's energy park are doing — could potentially reap profits: selling credits generated by reducing greenhouse gases now into the emissions-trading market the bill would create. That market could prove lucrative for projects that reduce methane, which is 20 times more potent than carbon dioxide when it comes to trapping heat in the earth's atmosphere. The fear in Greeley, and elsewhere, is what else the legislation would change. In the city and surrounding Weld County, the worry is it would raise energy and fertilizer costs for farmers. They need to pump water to irrigate their crops and rely on cheap manure—the same manure that will be tapped for energy—when high natural gas prices drive up the cost of fertilizer. ..... "Why would we do anything to drive up their cost of doing business? It makes no sense," local radio host Amy Oliver Cooke told the crowd. Many wore shirts that said, "Congress, Don't Take Away my Job." "I can't afford the legislation and neither can you," she said. ..... David Eckhardt, a fourth-generation Weld County farmer, is struggling with the math. ..... "I know my fuel will go up, I know my chemicals will go up. And the question that was asked at the meeting we had with them was how much? And their answer was not as much as you think it will," said Eckhardt. "That's not an answer." For Eckhardt, a climate law could change what crops he plants.The legislation, experts acknowledge, would do little to stem the heating up of the planet if other countries don't take similar action.
Hmm. Thanks.
They’re insisting an a valid email address. Think I’ll just use the word instead. :)
Good job. I just bumped it up for you. 3 down though.
