    How do you want me to address shit you're making up when there is no sources or studies. Not to mention that you avoided the question directly addressed to you.

    I'm perfectly conscious that fuel production/usage need to be reduced worldwide, but I'm not idealist to the point where I believe that throwing wrenches at our local economy would improves the situation, especially when the consumption isn't going to slow down. We are still far from a real penury where our decision will matter, so we might as well take our part of the cake and remain as competitive as we can.



    Your post insinuate that global CO2 emission would change by an amount that is more than trivial if we were cancelling the project. It's just wrong. We need to change the world on a different level if we want to help our case.

    See how the graphs aren't smooth? That's because deciduous plants exist. The little troughs are spring/summer when these plants put on leaves (and thus pull carbon out of the atmosphere) and grow a little bit.

    There are other carbon sinks that have stopped the atmospheric CO2 from matching what it should be given our output, but they aren't all (or likely even mostly) plants. For instance, the oceans will solvate some CO2 (as carbonic acid) proportional to the amount in the atmosphere. So we're making our oceans slightly more acidic, but our atmospheric CO2 is going up slower.
    Are you sure this is due to deciduous plants and not algae bloom cycles? I am not sure if they correlate directly but Algae accounts for 70-80% of the oxygen production on the planet.

    No my post didn't say shit about CO2 at all. Fuck more derailing though if it's not gonna go anywhere.

    You claimed that fuel cells can't work because your dad told you so. It was wrong.
    You claimed that project like the Keystone XL pipelines and supertankers off BC coast play significant roles in the destruction of our forest/ocean. It's a claim that is relatively baseless. I mentioned CO2 here because it's the reason why we need to maintain our forest and ocean, and if your goal is to stop global warming, you're picking the fight at the wrong level.


    But I agree with the last part. Fuck derailing this thread. I would rather do something more meaningful of my times than argue with an expert in conspiracy theories.

    The graphs are of annual CO2 levels, nothing to do with oxygen levels.

    And yes it's largely because of deciduous plant cycles, like I mentioned before the levels measured in the northern hemisphere where the vast, vast majority of landmass and deciduous vegetation are have a much larger range than levels measured closer to the equator and into the southern hemisphere.

    ~20 ppm fluctuation in Alaska at 71°N
    ~10 ppm in Hawaii at 19°N
    barely any fluctuation in NZ at 41°S

    Yes I know that the graphs are of annual CO2 levels. O2 production by plants is proportionate to the amount of CO2 removed.

    Want to lower our dependence on oil/gas and hence reduce pollution? Lower your dependence on the car while making more energy efficient buildings (buildings are one of the biggest energy drainers). You don't even need rocket scientists to aid you, and as a simple citizen you can help make both come to fruition!

    Investing in our infrastructure?

    Please, this is Amurrica, we built it once 60 years ago and did it so damn well we don't fix a damn thing.

    We live in dark times, my friends. The once Great Country of America has been corrupted. The White House has never been darker than it is right now. We have sluts and prostitutes clamoring for free abortions and birth control because they can’t afford all the sex they are having. Abortions are the #1 cause of infant deaths in America, yet Obama wants more abortions happening. He is trying to decrease our population so that his Muslim Socialist Atheist friends can come take over America and turn us into a Third World Country like Canada, England, and Pakistan. He plans to get more people choosing the homogay lifestyle to further decrease our population. It is a scientific fact that no man on man sin docking has ever created a baby. No female on female sin sallying, while being more pleasing to the eye, has ever created a baby either. These new gays will be running around fondling our Christian, White Children and attempting to convert them to the homosexualist lifestyle by giving them candy, Wii Box gaming machines and anal lube.

    http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...ooks-legit.jpg

    You are now asking yourself, “but what can we do to save our White Children from this dark threat?” Well, the answer is simple! In the upcoming elections, we must vote Obama out of The White House and replace him with human beings that are looking out for our Christian Morality! The time has come to places Morals above Political Correctness and Affirmative Action. We need men who will not take guff from womyn crying about not being able to afford enough abortions in a month. Men who will not look the other way when faced with man on man humping orgies happening in our streets and at pep rallies in our schools. We need Rush Limbaugh and Kirk Cameron for President and Vice President in 2012!

    http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...88972529_n.jpg

    Lately, Rush Limbaugh has been standing strong in his battle against immorality and Sluts like Sandra Fluke. He has lost most of his National sponsors, yet he is unwavering in his stand against these prostitutes who think they deserve to kill babies and have more sex than any human could possibly need in a day. It is this unfaltering spirit that our President needs to have against the Muslim Terrorist, Communist Japanese, Godless Canadians, Chalupa-eating Mexicans and Tribal Gang-Banging Hipped Hoppers who want nothing more than to destroy this Great Country and make it more like the Homelands that they illegally came here from. Rush Limbaugh will stand strong for America, even if it isn’t the most popular decision, it will be the right decision though and he won’t be apologizing to anyone!

    With a strong Vice President behind Rush Limbaugh, America finally will have hope of reclaiming our Christian Heritage. That Vice President can be none other than Kirk Cameron. He unwavering devotion to Jesus will guide us in to the future. His proof of Creationism has shut up Darwinist around the World. He has single-handedly helped out declining population by having six beautiful White children with his long-time Wife. His unabashed discussions of the homosexual disease has caused many gays to undo their choice of gayity. Traveling all over our Great Country and learning its history for the last year and a half, he has a deep knowledge of what made our Country great.

    As we move forward towards this Election, let us remember what made this Country into God’s Country. We are the Chosen People now, and as such, we must continue to smite what is not natural and trust in God to show us the right path.

    It always cracks me up when people say that this is a Christian nation, and that the founding fathers were Christian/religious/etc.

    Mostly because they founded this country so they could be rich white land owners, and not have to pay taxes on shit. At the time, that meant paying taxes to the church as well as the government. Hence a big reason for the separation of church and state.

    Great trolling. My favorite is "Muslim Socialist Atheist".

    My god, the comments on that article are hilarious. Especially when the author replies.

    Some:

    Where in my article did I use math? I think you can’t math. You blindly believe that 2+2=4, without researching into it at all. At least I don’t just believe everything a Liberal Grade School Teacher tells me to believe.

The fact you ARGUE that 2 + 2 = 5 is a testament to your stupidity.
    Quote Originally Posted by author

    Start with: -20 = -20
    Which is the same as: 16-36 = 25-45
    Which can also be expressed as: (2+2) 2 (9 X (2+2) = 52) 9 X 5
    Add 81/4 to both sides: (2+2) 2 (9 X (2+2) + 81/4 = 52) 9 X 5 + 81/4
    Rearrange the terms: ({2+2}) 9/2) 2 = (5-9/2) 2
    Ergo: 2+2 – 9/2 = 5
    Hence: 2 + 2 = 5

    See… simple, isn’t it?
    Quote Originally Posted by dude being trolled

    It goes on so much further, but I can't even take anymore.

    About The Author
    Years of Mental Gymnastics, and lots of love from Jesus has made this man realize he was not "Born this Way", but instead chose to be a Homogay until he met God and realized God doesn't make mistakes like a homogay.

    Amazing.
