Thinking Straight - Global Swarming

The EPA, under the adroit leadership of Saruman, has now declared CO2 to be a pollutant. As the Staples Singers taught us so many years ago -- "put your hand on your mouth when you cough, that'll help the solution." And after these Hilaritards have regulated all us CO2 emitters into the ground, they will then turn their attentive ministrations to the real environmental challenge of the century, which is that of battling the plague of salt water.

I just want everybody to stare straight at this for about 120 seconds without blinking. The Greens have successfully won their battle to categorize as a pollutant that element which makes plants grow lush and green. Heh. This would be really funny if it weren't so hilarious.

Once they take on the salt water, they will have to remove the sand along with it. Several years ago they declared quartz dust a Type 1 human carcinogen. That means every beach in the world is dangerous enough to cause cancer.

Talk about suppressing the truth! But in a world where homosexuality is normal, you've got to fight something, right? Personally, I think they should fight the changing of the seasons. Therein lies the real danger, anyways.

Nah, it's that d*mn

tide. Someone issue a

cease and desist order.

Next step for the green movement: they need to determine a way that we can all live exactly the same number of years so that our CO2 production from breathing is perfectly equal. The current system is unfair.

Then they need to progressively shorten that allowable length of life over time to reduce the greenhouse gases before it is too late. Liberals could fight over how much to cut the allowable lifetime and Republicans could fight for less significant reductions in allowable life.

Perhaps they could start with a cap and trade (one person can volunteer for early euthanization and give his extra years to someone else).

Lest anyone think that capping carbon emissions and controlling population levels are unrelated, check out this link in which China seeks praise for their population policy: http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2009-12/10/content_9151129.htm

Chilling to think that greens think getting rid of a large chunk of the world's population is a positive step in the direction of "protecting the planet." One way of viewing the green project is as rebellion--rejection of the God's Genesis 1:28 mandate.

Will -- think of the possibilities. Someone who dies before the allotted age could leave his extra years as an inheritance. Think what THAT would do to family relationships! You thought it was bad when people were just looking to inherit money!

Word on the street is that Denmark has run out of limos, and the main airport is out of room for private jets to land.

Water can be highly harmful. Drink too much of it, and you'll die.

Isn't that hilarious too, that these silly doctors could make such a claim? After all, water is necessary for life!

Pollution is all about the wrong amounts of something in the wrong place. Cadmium is great stuff for making laptop batteries, but you wouldn't want it in your drinking water.

As someone who is very keen that those who take different positions from him make sure they carefully understand what he is actually saying, the way in which you deal with climate science reminds me of the conversation between the pot and the kettle.

Hopefully one day, this blog will turn carriage returns into HTML linebreaks, like every other bit of blogging software out there.

Gerv, stop whining.

The New Socialism. Green on the outside, red on the inside. I don't think I'm allowed to say what that reminds me of.

Gerv, my position is not that CO2 couldn't get to destructive levels. Of course it could. So could water (as in, over my head). If the oxygen levels got too high in the atmosphere we would have to ban smoking for reasonable reasons.

My point is that CO2 hasn't gotten to those levels, and we now know that the scientific establishment was willing to cook the books to get the political results they wanted and needed.
Douglas Wilson  Friday, December 11, 2009 4:14 am
And, with regard to your other complaints, you are quite right. Lord willing, we are very close to a new platform for this blog (within mere days). Stay tuned.
Gerv  Friday, December 11, 2009 4:54 pm
Doug: thank you for graciousness in the face of unnecessary grumpiness. Looking forward to the improved blog platform :-)



I'm pleased that the Climategate affair will perhaps shake people's false faith in the unimpeachability of all scientific pronouncements. Scientists are human too. But the case for anthropogenic climate change is not based solely on data from one source or one institution. However, we should certainly demand raw data as well as analysis from the other ones.



CO2 hasn't yet got to destructive levels. But the guy driving at 60mph towards the edge of a cliff also hasn't yet come to any harm. It's still a good idea to apply the brakes.

The concept of salt water is quite interesting being that the oceans are driving cyclical climate processes including precipitation. Can you say El Nino / La Nina? And it is normally the lack of precipitation that causes glaciers to recede not increases temperature. This is like blaming the refrigerator compressor for not keeping a plentiful supply of ice cubes on hand when really you consumed them and didn't put more water in the ice trays.
