Quick, somebody call Al Gore (pictured) so he can have his Global Warming police bring down that web site before anyone else sees it!
The Al Gore … propaganda machine seeks to limit each person to 1 ton of carbon per year. The proposal is to create a system of carbon allowances that will be the rationing cards of the future.
The government would dole out what bureaucrats think we should have.
Kyoto targets, however, will not be met. Two facts about the futility of controlling emissions:
1) Uncontrolled fires in China's abandoned coal mines release as much carbon dioxide as the entire nation of Japan does from useful fuel consumption.
2) The oceans and land outgas 210 billion tons per year compared to 3 billion tons per year from human activity.
Ian Murray, a critic of Gore's "work," recently detailed 25 truths that Gore conveniently leaves out of the companion book to his video because they are inconvenient to his argument.
Gore says we only have 10 years to return to a medieval lifestyle.
If we all returned to a medieval lifestyle, we would all be burning wood for fuel and building our houses and oxcarts out of wood. How long would our forests last with the population of the earth today?
The following is a somewhat humorous posting on Lucianne:
1) Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May and still smelled pretty good by June.
4) The floor was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt, hence the saying "dirt poor."
8) Most people did not have pewter plates, but had trenchers, a piece of wood with the middle scooped out like a bowl. After eating off wormy moldy trenchers, one would get "trench mouth."
Oh, those "good old days"
On second thought, let’s not go back to a medieval lifestyle. If we did, one thing would be merciful - we would only live to an average age of 35 years.
