I’ve been outta’ town all day.
Read that, and thought to myself…..hmm.
Ought to raise the Exclusive and only authorised distributer…….
Getcherz LLC Carbon Certificate $5/ton charge, & add a plus charge for shipping, insurance and a handling fee –in addition.
Could be a $1.99 shipping, $1.49 handling, and $2.99 Insurance.
Seems reasonable to me………
=======================
Would one thing AlGor’s Glo Bull WOrming is coming apart at it’s seams?
Only ones now trying at this time are the Europeans, to saddle all the ‘high energy users’ which would include steel, cement, refining, etc. So they are now complaining to high hell………who are you ‘the unelected’ saddling us with a ‘tax’ which has absolutely nothing to do with the cyclic nature of this Globe and the Sun?

Global warming, uh, cooling, uh warming, uh, cooling …

Well it looks like they’ve definitely cleared this up. Trees are warming the planet. Uh, make that trees are cooling the planet. Uh. Well, you can see for yourself:
“Scientists in the UK and Germany have discovered that trees release a chemical that thickens clouds above them, which reflects more sunlight and so cools the Earth,” according to the Institute for Climate and Atmospheric Science at Leeds University.
“Forests on certain parts of the planet may actually warm the Earth, according to researchers from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in a study released today.”
With anything as cut and dry as this, why would anyone hesitate to cripple the economy to save us from global warming?

The appearance of Ralph Nader and Toby Heaps’s op-ed “We Need a Global Carbon Tax” (op-ed, Dec. 3) pushing for a carbon tax to control the “dangerous global climate change” opposite the letter from Reuvain Borchardt proposing “an open and honest debate on climate change” is a marvelous example of how far apart the global warming alarmists are from the realities expressed so well by Mr. Borchardt.
Considering the enormous financial and strategic issues that are being affected by widespread misbeliefs such as Mr. Nader’s and much of the media of the alleged dangers of global warming (which are supported solely by complex, unverifiable, mathematical models of the atmosphere) vs. the realities of scientific evidence, largely unpublicized, that carbon dioxide cannot have any major effect on the atmosphere comparable to that created by variations in solar cycles, the nation needs full disclosure and due diligence of this issue before it gets further polarized.

I ask where is the evidence that says humans, who supposedly generate this extra, evil carbon dioxide, are solely responsible for the recent increase in CO2?
The global warming alarmists want to throw millions of dollars at a problem that has a good chance of just being the cyclical nature of our planet. Earth has survived millions of years, and I believe it will survive millions more without another wealth redistribution scheme camouflaged as a “save the planet or perish” scheme.

The common thinking until recently was that life could not have emerged on Earth prior to about 3.85 billion years ago. But wait. “We thought we knew something we didn’t,” said T. Mark Harrison, a professor of geochemistry at UCLA. In hindsight, the evidence was just not there.
I’d love to be around to see a similar hindsight piece when people realize the earth is cooling and that CO2 control has nothing to do with taming the climate.

LONDON — The European Union is facing mounting pressure from European-based steel companies to reshape the world’s largest carbon-trading system or face a massive loss of jobs.
The conflict pits the EU’s environmental goals against its desire to keep high-paying jobs on the Continent.
Europe’s steel industry generates €140 billion ($178 billion) in sales annually, employs about 370,000 people directly and about one million people indirectly, with suppliers and downstream industries — such as car manufacturers and other companies that use steel in a major fashion — accounting for a total of 22 million jobs, according to the European Confederation …
