1. Interesting factoid they gave, the Chinese

are putting one coal fired power plant on line each week. In this country the environmentalists want to shut ours down and drive the cost of electricity through the roof. Doesn't the CO2 all go in the same air?

2. Yes it does, and heaven forbid

we do the right thing when less than absolutely everyone else is on board. I would hate to see us leading by example, it would be so un-Bush-American. After all, like Michelle Bachman says, CO2 is natural, and we all want a little more nature....

3. How do you know science is right on the CO2?

They said don't eat eggs they will raise your cholesterol, now they are OK. Some say the hi protein diet is the way to go others say it will kill you. We had the Swine Flu scare back in the 70's nothing happened other than some people got very sick from the vaccine. They said we were all going to die from bird flu, I'm still here. They said back in the 70's we were going to have another ice age. Just saying does science have any clue about the global warming really, I understand there are some on both sides of that issue. Are they going to say, Whoops! we were wrong after they put another million people out of work to reduce CO2. Where I work we had to install flare stacks at a cost of about $1 mil because they said we were emitting CO. Well in that process the CO emissions are converted into CO2 from the flare stack, now CO2 causes global warming. :banghead:
