Whew! I'm safe! I've been a member of 10:10 since 2009.
I got rid of my car 3 years ago for public transportation. replaced the bulbs with CFLs 4 years ago, insulated the loft, and am trying to reduce my carbon footprint as much as possible.
I found a sale on incandescent bulbs at Lowe's last night and bought a case. They were even advertised on the package as "mercury free". Hah! Using green marketing to combat green hysteria.
Thank God for folks like Laci. Seriously, I mean that. Because he has gone to extraordinary effort to reduce his carbon footprint, I can safely increase mine.
Today I took a drive for no reason, ran the AC (in the car, and at the house) and switched out a few fluorescent bulbs for the traditional incandescents. I'm going to burn some leaves later this autumn, and just for the hell of it, I tore out two trees in my yard over the summer.
Wow, I really love all the eco-mentalists and their carbon guilt. It makes it so much easier for me to live without any guilt whatsoever when it comes to carbon dioxide.
I keep waiting for the anti-gun cud-munchers to start whining about the carbon released into the atmosphere by every shot fired, as the propellant powder burns.
That carbon emissions video was really silly, while, not to brag, the one I presented satirizing gun-owner fantasy was brilliant.
About the carbon footprint business, I'll say this. One of my first political bursts of cynicism came in the late 60s or early 70s. I was a teenager and all the rage was to stop using aerosol sprays because they hurt the ozone layer. I read somewhere, in some subversive newspaper no doubt, that each Cape Canaveral launch was the equivalent of millions of cans of deoderant.
And for balance, here's a government-funded statist fantasy.
ReplyDeleteVD has to worry about exploding.

ReplyDeleteI don't think anyone here would mind if you reduced it 100%.

ReplyDeleteYou know it will happen eventually.
Ssshhhhh Zorro! The ecoloons haven't thought of that yet.

The way I see it, the sooner, and the more vividly, they expose the utter nincompoopery of their statist "thought" process, the better.

I kept using Right Guard.

ReplyDeleteSeconded
Funny MikeB. My dad used to say "we didn't have any holes in the ozone until everyone started punching holes in it with rockets."
ReplyDelete" Great job Laci!
ReplyDeleteHowever, 10:10 is about 2010, hence the name. What measures have you done this year? No pressure, of course.
...
According to my calculations, approximately 24% of 2010 remains, so you still need to ... hmm...
Please follow me, there is a man named Vasli Blokhin you simply must meet. No weapons on you, right? "
Isn't it disturbing that the worst mass murderors are always government-funded?
You'll also note that Laci's insane owner is the one who called for the suicide of anybody who disagreed with him...so the suit fits.
