Global Warming Scam and Global Whining Axis of Idiots, Global Warming, Globull Worming, Liberalism is a mental disorder, Lies 16:31
On the global warming sham, we have these lovely articles for your perusal.
Earlier this week we were, ahem, relishing the story about how some Burger King restaurants in Tennessee had been displaying signs saying “global warming is baloney“.
A journalist working for the Memphis Flyer, a local news weekly, had photographed some of the signs and then approached Burger King’s press office for an explanation. It responded by saying the sign’s message didn’t match the corporation’s views on global warming and it said it had asked the franchise owner to take the signs down. End of story.
Think twice about ‘green’ transport, say scientists
You worry a lot about the environment and do everything you can to reduce your carbon footprint — the emissions of greenhouse gases that drive dangerous climate change.
So you always prefer to take the train or the bus rather than a plane, and avoid using a car whenever you can, faithful to the belief that this inflicts less harm to the planet.
Well, there could be a nasty surprise in store for you, for taking public transport may not be as green as you automatically think, says a new US study.
Its authors point out an array of factors that are often unknown to the public.
These are hidden or displaced emissions that ramp up the simple “tailpipe” tally, which is based on how much carbon is spewed out by the fossil fuels used to make a trip.
Environmental engineers Mikhail Chester and Arpad Horvath at the University of California at Davis say that when these costs are included, a more complex and challenging picture emerges.
