Title: Stupid Environmental Laws Post by: Phoenix on 2004-08-10, 09:25 http://www.cnn.com/2004/TECH/science/08/09...reut/index.html (http://www.cnn.com/2004/TECH/science/08/09/autos.emissions.reut/index.html)
We're talking about CARBON DIOXIDE here. You and I exhale this EVERY DAY OF OUR LIVES. This is nothing but political BS, it will NOT help the environment one damned bit. For those who believe in global warming due to "greenhouse gasses", um, the sun heats the earth. The sun is more active now than it has been in the last 1,000 years. This has a hell of a lot more to do with the Earth's temperatures than car exhaust does. There's a real simple answer. If you want less CO2, PLANT MORE SPORKING TREES AND STOP BULLDOZING RAINFORESTS. Trees turn CO2 into oxygen. Less trees = more CO2 in the air!
