Lomborg: No, we don't need five planets | The Australian

When we really examine the ecological footprint calculations, we discover that the only thing the world is running out of is space to plant a colossal amount of imaginary forest that we wouldn't have planted anyway, to avoid CO2 emissions that we can prevent through much smarter and cheaper means.

That our profligate consumption requires five planets is a catchy story, but it is wrong. The planet we have is more than enough.

EPA Finds Global Warming Dangerous, Proposes to Micromanage the Economy » The Foundry

Bureaucratic micromanagement of the economy, all in the name of fighting global warming, would likely be the end result of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) endangerment finding on greenhouse gases.

Stupid sheep in a field of 'green' - Peterborough Examiner - Ontario, CA

This whole "green idea" has totally gone nuts and the people are just stupid little sheep for letting all these hair-brained schemes and policies take control of their lives.
...
Each of these "idiotic ideas" has one thing in common. It costs major dollars to implement and in the end you pay! We are being led down the garden path and nobody is speaking up. If we continue to spend our money on these increasing "taxes," what money will be left to drive and stimulate the economy?
