Trees Migrating North Due to Warming

China just passed us as the world biggest polluter, last year. We are solid at #2. We use 25% of the world's energy.

Is Carbon Dioxide a polutant?

Yes. A naturally occuring pollutant, like dust etc.

Better stop breathing there Gil Dobie.

So is O2 a pollutant too then, and every naturally occuring compound?

You need to get an electric car, so we can build more coal power plants to produce the electricity for the cars.

Build more nuke plants. Problem solved

The liberals are in charge, so no nuke's

Obama is pro-nuclear.

He should be, he gets enough campaign contributions from Exelon.

Do you have a link to Obama being pro nuclear?

He may not have taken it off the table, but I haven't seen him do anything to keep it on the table, and the lobbyist will keep it from happening via the Democrat Congress.

I will look. I do know he was not pushing it as hard as McCain, but supported it.

Uhhh, Gil, he publicly supported it. And, uhh, he's got a few issues to tackle right now. Be patient.

You sure about this, now? Maybe in the future, but we are the worst.

No proof, but I would find it hard to believe, given the current environmental laws in place in this country, that our industry is destroying this earth at a rate comparable to China's currently......maybe so, but I'd like to see evidence....I'm open-minded.....

American fat fukc consumers are partially responsible for the pollution in China. We have to have our cheap fukcing Wal Mart crap.

Fok that......we have enough problems taking responsibility for our own problems, don't add theirs to ours.....nobody making them sell the cheap sh!t....all it takes is one whore company to compromise their values to satiate the beast of WalMart purchasing demands......

Our problem is cultural. We're fat and lazy and don't think. We've allowed corporate america and hollywood to suck out all the meaning out of all our lives. We fill the void with self deception, pre occupation with others, unhealthy fantasy, consumer goods, porn, drugs and alcohol. This fact alone, not our military, makes us the most dangerous country in the history of the world.

Americans are retarded.

You had this correct until the end. Americans are not retarded...they've allowed themselves to buy into the "consumer nation" subliminal message that comes at us from every direction, wherein the message of "self perception as consumer" (rather than producer) has not just become the norm, it's been adulated as an indicator of being successful.
I have little respect for the Tom Sawyers of our society who master of the craft of laziness and angling how to get out of doing any work (or worse, craft ways of getting others to do the work they have been charged with).

American's need to return to the time when productivity was not just preferable, but a moral responsibility of every person: A return to a time when folks who sat around bragging about their unproductive lifestyles, working only a few days each week OR MONTH whilst spending most of their time recreating and simply placing their consumption of goods and time without contributing back to society, are shunned and mocked rather than envied.

America needs to be either learning, teaching or producing (which is not exclusive to manufacturing/AG/construction types of jobs. Anything avocation that gives back more than it consumes is inclusive.).

One of the wisest things I've seen you write so far, J.

Not trying to be picky, since I asked the question incorrectly...please select

(1) It isn't true "Most of the time" that what I say is purely for effect

or

(2) Most of the time it is true that what I say is purely for effect...
