I can't believe that in this day in age that people still believe that there is no such thing as global warming. Find yourself a credible scientist, sit down and talk with them, and listen to what they have to say (not what you want to hear).
If you still believe global warming is not happening (and human activities are contributing to it), you are an idiot.
That is all.
Space pilot,
Please sign me up for the 35 % team.
Humans create waste and air pollution.
Bison cause waste and air pollution.
Trees, yes, trees cause waste and create air pollution (google "atlanta smog and trees").
Now, unlike the buffalo and elm tree, I can try to reduce my impact, my footprint somewhat:
I don't need to use electricity (goofing off on APC for instance) when I should be sleeping.
I don't need to bathe everyday, although many would say I should.
Anyway, I won't give up my livelyhood, my need for shelter and my need for nourishment.
Why doesn't the former VP chop a tree down or ask the bison to stop eating, shedding and crapping?
