Apparently Global Warming Isn’t Man-Caused After All [McGehee]

Save the planet! Eat fart-free beef!

    How many years until we reach the cow-tipping point?

  2. Yeah, 20% of CO2 apparently comes from farm animals, if you believe a UN report.  Then again, these are the same guys that in the same report that said that while up to 50% of the CO2 in previous warming periods came from the ocean, the ocean somehow has little to do with today’s CO2 numbers.

  3. McGehee says:

    What they really want is for us to slaughter all these farting cattle and eat tofu instead.

    Of course, slaughtered cattle decompose, giving off … uh, what again?

    And since I have no personal experience with tofu (thank God) I’ll have to throw this one to the gallery: does soybean curd make you do what, say, baked beans make you do?

    Bunga Cowa.

    Damn, Kevin, I was hoping you meant beef that didn’t make you fart. That would rank (heh) right up there with the development of the fartless bean.

    Not for me. But I’ve always been considered special. Tofu tends to take on the flavor of what it’s cooked with/in. So if you want it to taste like steak, you need to cook it with…………………………..hey! Wait a minute!

  7. What they really want is for us to slaughter all these farting cattle and eat tofu instead.

    Indeed, Global Warming is the lever by which the radical PC twits want us to abandon all the things they hate (eating meat, driving cars, etc) and embrace greater government planning for life and control over our lives.  Greater socialism is their plan, since they are unable to convince people to accept it today and the really heavy socialist governments ended up miserable failures and tyrannies.  So this is the next step to get what they want.

    Of course, a more agrarian society would have more cows, which produce more CO2 (and methane)… but at least we wouldn’t have cars!

    We could eat liberals instead, thus reducing our dependence on Big Cow for our sustenance. They’ll be easy to hunt because they don’t have guns and their bicycles are slower than our SUVs. There’s tons of them in the cities too, so the bag limit would be very high.

  9. BJTexs says:

    What’s wrong with you people?

    Why aren’t we talking about Iraq?

    Somebody named emmadine seems to think that’s the only topic allowed us. Didn’t y’all get the memo?

    Anywho, I ate a big plate of steak fajitas and refried beans last evening and spent the entire night shortening the days until Florida vanishes FOREVER!

    EAT SALT WATER, RETIREES!!!!!

    Um … what were we talking about?

  10. McGehee says:

    And they’d be easy to ranch, seeing as how they already run in herds.

    But, on the other hand, imagine the effort involved in cleaning one.

    Christopher’s Taylor’s recent post on global warming is an impressive piece – after reading it yesterday, I found this

    The peak of the next sunspot cycle is expected in late 2011 or mid-2012 – potentially affecting airline flights, communications satellites and electrical transmissions. But forecasters can’t agree on how intense it will be.

    […]

    The forecasters said the current solar cycle will probably end next Mar, when Solar Cycle 24 will begin. That will mean Cycle 23 lasted 12 years, slightly longer than the usual 11-yr cycle.

    Notice the unusual layout of the AP reportage… it obscures the fact that in just a few short years we will have an opportunity to begin making first-hand empirical observations about the relationship of declining solar activity to planetary temperature.

    It’s also interesting that they failed to note when the *current* solar cycle peaked.

    1998, perhaps?  Hmmmm, could be!

  14. fool says:

    You people are pathetic. It’s all because of you that the earth is doomed to become uninhabitable in 1976 1978 1982 1984 1990 1992 1996 2001 2004 2006 2010!!!

    I hear they’re mostly mudvein ( or was that full of ……)

    TW soon42, it’s about a year behind.

    Fool,

    You forgot 1980 – wasn’t that Paul Erlich’s original guess, er…prediction?

  17. does soybean curd make you do what, say, baked beans make you do?

    oh, it’s much worse.

  18. jimf says:

    think of the money to be made by inventing a device which attaches to cows and reduces methane…

    btw…18% livestock, 14% transport of livestock… x% volcanoes and other natural causes…what % is mankind’s contribution…

    I want my liberal to have been free-roaming.  Less fat, you know.

  20. McGehee says:

    I want my liberal to have been free-roaming.

    Aw, sorry Geez—liberals just aren’t the free-roaming kind.

    And the only fat you’re liable to encounter in even a cage-fed liberal would be between the ears anyway. Stringy dang things.

  21. fool says:

    …the only fat you’re liable to encounter in even a cage-fed liberal would be between the ears anyway…

    Seen Michael Moore lately?

  22. TheGeezer says:

    think of the money to be made by inventing a device which attaches to cows and reduces methane…

    …or captures methane.  Liquified, it could be used to power vehicles, although I wonder what sort of chemistry will be needed to for burned flatus exhaust systems.

    I wonder if a flatus tanker exploding on an approach to a bridge could melt steel?

  23. McGehee says:

    Michael Moore isn’t a liberal. He’s a looney buffoon. The species is sometimes seen in the company of liberals, but only long enough to suck the brain out of one.

    Which, it doesn’t take long…
