Pappy's Balderdash: America Outraged
As if the battle for good and evil isn't enough, now come the Environmentalists who are so afraid of global warming that they want to put a Bag tax on grocery bags in California; to eliminate Mylar balloons; to establish something as insidious as the recycle police in San Francisco. I do my share for the environment: I recycle, I use water wisely, I installed an energy efficient air conditioning unit. But when and where does the lunacy stop?Ahmadinejad wants to wipe Israel off the map, the California economy is being overrun by illegal immigrants, and the United States of America no longer knows right from wrong, good from evil.. So what does California do? Tax grocery bags.
Will Global Warming Make Future Generations Worse Off? (No, according to realistic analysis) — MasterResource
In fact, the above raises the question whether it is moral to require today’s poorer generations to spend their scarce resource on anthropogenic GHG-induced global warming — a problem that may or may not be faced by future, far wealthier, and technologically better endowed generations — instead of the more urgent, real problems that plague current generations and will continue to plague future generations as well.

Can A Nation Really Go Carbon Neutral? - Green Invests Here * News * Special Report - CNBC.com
“When the idea of carbon neutral involves offsetting it can be very negative,” Larry Lohmann, co-director of Corner House, a UK-based environmental think tank, told CNBC.com.

Many so-called carbon offset projects were either already planned or being built, meaning the benefits would have happened anyway, according to Lohmann.

Other projects, such as ethanol production, have led to the destruction of forests and vegetation, which is not good for the climate, he added.

There is one clever scam after another to produce carbon credits, but so far we haven’t seen much ingenuity going into projects that are actually helpful in getting us off fossil fuels,” he said.
