If every American swapped one meat meal a week for an all-vegetarian meal, it would cut emissions.

Now that's funny.

This? From the San Francisco Chronicle?

Where’s “Allowing Human Feces to Remain on City Streets”?

I don’t know who that helps their foolish thinking, but they do love their crap.

1. Commute like a European - NOPE - I am driving my Corvette, last tank was 17.05 mpg and it was a lot of fun.

2. When you do drive, plug in - NOPE - I’m almost done restomoding my 1968 Ford XL Convertible, with a new Coyote engine, 475 hp

3. Follow the sun - NOPE - I only have one choice, electric CO-OP. NOPE on solar panels as they do not offer a positive return on investment

4. Caulk those cracks - DONE, good common sense to do this

5. Update your appliances. - NOPE - replace only when they wear out, otherwise it is a waste of money

6. Stay cool in the laundry room - NOPE - just follow the label on clothes

7. Eat like a horse, go veggie - NOPE - people need protein and we love cow and pig

8. Light the way to savings - DONE - good return on investement

9. Lawns are so 20th century - NOPE - have 27 acres of coastal Bermuda grass.

10. Take it on the road - NOPE - much more important things to require of government, like not falling for hoaxes, kicking out all illegals, following the Constitution, and leaving citizens alone to manage their own affairs without government interference

5. Update your appliances.

Wrong! Modern American appliances are crap.

Keep that old beater 25 year old washer and you will be happy. Plus, you will be filling the landfill with fewer crappy American appliances as they break down on you every couple of years — good for the environment and the purse.

If that meal were replaced with cabbage, it would increase emissions.

1. Let’s see you bike or walk when the windchill is -20 and there’s two feet of snow on the ground.

2. So, how much pollution do those batteries cause on manufacture, and disposal?

3. I live in Michigan; We spend most of the year in cloud cover, and wind is spotty at best.

4. Obviously. Also cuts the bill for heating

5. Read this as: Throw your old appliances into the landfill, and consume. Isn’t that supposed to be bad?

6. Tell me, does running the dryer twice as long actually save anything? Personally I use a clothesline when I can anyhow

7. If forced to eat vegetarian meals, my personal emissions would FAR exceed anything the animals are producing.

8. I do this anyhow. I like the LEDs a lot.

9. So....poison ivy? Ragweed? There’s your native plants...

10. Wait, we said farther up that going on the road is a no-no!

Frack like crazy to use natural gas instread of oil or coal - like the only country which is reducing its CO2 production.

I invented a car that only runs on hot air but the only market for it was in Washington DC.

If all these climate change people really believed what they are saying then they’d all be out there planting trees......it’s a globalist revenue scam and that’s all it is.
