Anyone feel guilty about flying to Atlanta?

Be absolved of your carbon sins!

First, get your electric bills and flight information and click here: http://www.carbonfootprint.com/USA/calculator.html

The Church of Climate Change charges about 18 USD for every 1,000 kg of CO2 you contribute. For about 342 USD (average person contributes 19,000 kg), you can purchase an indulgence and be absolved of your carbon sins for the year.

You can buy your indulgence here: http://www.carbonfootprint.com/US_shop/shop3.html

Another way to reduce your CO2 emissions is to remove your car's catalytic converter (warning: illegal), which converts CO (a non-GHG) into CO2 (a GHG). Planting trees, unfortunately won't help, as they convert CO2 to O2 (a GHG absorbing the first chunk of UV bandwith, more than CO2).

Play nice everyone.

No guilt whatsoever. I don't even know what guilt is, you whorebot!

I feel like rubbing charcoal on the soles of my shoes.

OK, you've found out the reason I'm not making the trip this year...Al Gore shamed me into staying home so there wouldn't be 20 foot tidal waves resulting from my rather large carbon footprint.

Is that your carbon footprint or are you just happy to see me!

lol

I'd be more worried if mankind could account for more than 2% of all greenhouse gases, but we can't; the other 98% comes from natural causes, volcanic outgassing, etc. It's more of a carbon pinkie-print. But by golly, it plays in Peoria and makes some folks a lot of money, so guilt-trip away!

I'm proudly driving my gas guzzling SUV down to Hotlanta this year!

Al Gore could cut back in oil consumption by not putting so darned much in his hair!

I'm all for people doing their part to help the environment, but I don't need these hypocrites like Al Gore and his Hollywood yes men to inform me of my so called sins.

I don't see Al Gore cruising around in a Prius, so he can go fsck himself.

Pellaz · September 27th, 2007, 11:20 PM

My car gets 40mpg highway, and it's a 2002 Ford Escort, thankyouverymuch. Who needs a Prius?
