Problem solved, and would actually save the taxpayers money! “While four times more expensive than coal, natural gas produces about half as much carbon dioxide…”

How many solar panels does the White House and Congress have installed on the roof? Are all the light bulbs, windows, doors, refrigerators etc, energy compliant? Do they ALL need to be driving into work? Can't they carpool? Do they really need to fly back to their district every weekend? How is the government going paperless? Are they shutting off the computers and lights when not in use? Sit there and lecture the public, while they probably do nothing about it themselves.....nice power plant JERKS!

I remember when I used to think GW was a real threat. Then somewhere along the line someone said cow farts were causing damage to the ozone layer and it started to look like a bad South Park episode. Oh well. Maybe GW will get me a two-hour delay tomorrow. Haha. Ugh. I remember when I used to think GW was a real threat.

Here in Pennsylvania, the temperatures keep dropping below the twenties. "While four times more expensive than coal, natural gas produces about half as much carbon dioxide…" A more cost effective route: Tell these people to stop breathing and wasting O2 for their planet-destroying CO2. That would save us a lifetime's worth of carbon dioxide. So, any takers? Have to say, I could go for some of that global WARMING right now.
