In an effort to convince the planet to spend more money on stocks Al Gore owns, a bunch of people got together in Denmark. They called themselves COP15. The problem is there aren’t fifteen of them. It should be called the COP18000 or so. The problem that creates is in an effort to convince everyone to ignore the bad science and just listen to them, they created 46,200 tons of carbon. That’s a lot. It would take 2,300 typical Americans one year to match that. Hell, it would take 660,000 Ethiopians to match that. They accomplished this by flying in private jets and renting over 200 limousines. Thoroughly convinced by the COP15 that what they went there to promote is truly what they want to promote, they’ll take limousines to the airport to fly their private jets home to tell us how to reduce our carbon footprint by taxing an imaginary concept that does nothing to reduce carbon. However, it did give Al Gore yet another reason to state facts completely wrong in such a profound way as to merit another Nobel.
Not to be outdone, mother nature came back with her own shot:
I can’t get an exact estimate, but the carbon footprint of Mayon is very big. Seeing a goldmine, Al Gore calculated the carbon footprint of Mayon with an abacus and pencil and paper and figured out how much more we need to pay in taxes to earn him his next $100,000,000. Obama plans to work with Nancy Pelosi to sponsor new legislation she will call “Cap and trade some more”. Obama is meeting with his insults czar preparing for any opposition to his new plan.
The only upside for Earth lately of course was Elin Nordegren eliminating one really big SUV with a golf club.
