Guess How Many Years We Have To Save The Planet

One thing about the left - you can always count on 'em. As I pointed out before, the never-changing mantra of the ecoloonies is that we have 10 years left. This was the mantra 30 years ago, it was Al Gore's mantra last year, and it is the mantra today.

The funny thing is, if you read the article it never says we have 10 years to save the planet, that's just what the headline leads you to believe. Instead the article goes on to explain that a bunch of celebrities are trying to get people to agree to a completely unmeasurable goal. I can refrain from doing some things (that I probably wasn't going to do anyway) and say that I just saved me some CO2.

If the lefties really want to reduce greenhouse gasses, maybe they should start by living in smaller homes and supporting nuclear energy.

    A great quote:

    There are ominous signs that the earth's weather patterns have begun to change dramatically and that these changes may portend a drastic decline in food production - with serious political implications for just about every nation on earth. The drop in food production could begin quite soon... The evidence in support of these predictions has now begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologist are hard-pressed to keep up with it.

    When was this said? Wait for it, wait for it....
