Global warming?

I think not! Anybody got something that pollutes even worse then my ranchero that I can go wander around in for a while? It's too freaking cold and I have way to much to get done for this weather... :flame:

I can fire up the BBQ grill and both my lawn mowers for a while. Those things will contribute to global warming more than all 3 of my vehicles combined.

Maybe we should begin a campaign to get ranchers to start feeding thier cattle baked beans... that should help warm things up a bit:eek:

Speaking of BBQing, I had to bring my propane tank into the shop to heat it up, before the BBQ would even light last night.

Ironically, its so cold that I have to leave my car running, thus contributing to pollution and global warming.  So if it heats up, I will actually cut down on greenhouse gas emissions.

Good point... actually though, I don't believe in global warming as it's presented, just felt like being a wise ass today since it's so freaking cold and we're all gonna die thanks to global warming :flip:

I also do not believe in global warming, mainly because there is no
legitimate science to back it up.
The world may be warming but it ain't because of emissions from us.

emissions is #9 out of 10.

Sun is #1 and water is number2 on the list of reasons why.

The sun isn't the cause of global warming.  It's how much sun is getting through the ozone layer that is.  Duh.

im tired of hearing about global warming... melting the ice caps and such.  you know what was caused by the last time the earth went through global warming?  ICE AGE.

btw, global warming isnt how much the sun is getting THROUGH, its how much the atmosphere isnt letting the reflected heat from the sun BACK OUT.

Yep, it's the Greenhouse Effect.

And global warming is a reality. But it's the emissions from things like coal power plants, ocean liners, and Airplanes that have the biggest effect, in my opinion. Smog, you can blame that on your car.

Anyway, yes, Global warming triggered an Ice Age (or two). Let's all jump on that. :rolleyes: I need an Ice Age like a hole in the head (or ozone layer). I know people are tired of hearing about it, but you're going to keep hearing more and more, so long as we keep on being as irresponsible as we are (myself included). We're kicking our planet in the nads. It's only a matter of time before we get bitch slapped back.

Sure, it's cold this January, as January's are (I know it's the fifth, ;) just bear with me), but this has to be one of the warmest winters I've ever witnessed.
