Home heating oil between 3.50 and 4.50 a gallon in the winter already.

They can take their carbon tax and stick it where the sun don’t shine.

It always amazes me how these idiots FIND one another.

Birds of a feather....!

I guess if your own understanding of how the world works is ‘See Spot Run’ then THAT’S the mentality you gravitate toward!! :)

Must be DeCrapio hasn’t had any good script offers lately.

It’s what idle actors do to get the attention of their socialist owners.

Emissions from passenger aircraft measured as per passenger mile vary a lot with occupancy.

But the main culprit is short flights or short hops. Most of the fuel/energy used and emissions are from taking off and getting up to altitude.

First you have to break it out as stationary sources and mobile sources

Then break out the mobile sources as trucks, cars, busses, trains, aircraft, boats etc. But among these you have differentiate between freight and passenger.

In the overall scheme of things passenger aircraft is lower percent, but thru the years they have made more efficient engines, lighter aircraft, and higher occupancy rates.

When Liberals say they want a conversation, what they really mean is THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL DO, BECAUSE ITS WHAT WE WANT YOU TO DO.

I’ve come to wince internally whenever I hear a liberal use a word like ‘discussion’ or ‘conversation’ in matters like this. What they usually mean is,”I am going to continue to harangue you until you surrender.”

A carbon tax? Not even carbon dioxide, but carbon? I had to stop reading the article, I could just feel my IQ plummeting. No blood for pencils!
