Extreme Go Green

Sheryl · 11-25-2007, 11:03 PM

Toni Vernelli, 35, hopes her actions would ensure her carbon footprint would be kept to a minimum, the Mail reported. The environmental advocate also sees having children as an egotistical act.

"Having children is selfish. It's all about maintaining your genetic line at the expense of the planet," Vernelli told the Mail, adding she believes bringing new life into the world only adds to the problem.

I classify this under extreme extremists.

Wow...she sure is assuming a lot isnt she? Just because shes so bitter that she can't get a date...she doesn't have to call people selfish who want to have children....true I agree there's a lot of people who have way more children then what they can "afford"...I'm not going to think someone is selfish or egotistical who wants to have children...personally I can't wait for the day...I mean...I can....

but I can't!
Plus theres other things she should be worrying about......we're not yet to the "Soylent Green" stage!

OTOH, there's no sustainable way for the planet to support all these people.

So the most extreme green way would be to bump yourself off and leave the rest of us in peace to suffer our doom.........

Well, that's moderate.
Extreme would be to kill a few hundred thousand people first ... perhaps Iraqis.

Strange, what with being the only country holding out on Kyoto, I'd never thought of Bush as an environmentalist.

Why didnt she just cease from sex then, surely the operation she underwent left more of her footprint on the environment, what abotu all the plastic they used for the IV's and the emissions from the sterlization process for instruments...?

What a fun game this must be. Let's see how many different subjects we can use to bash bush.

I wonder if you guys do this away from the computer as well.
"More potatoes, dear?"
"I'll bet more Iraqis can have second helpings, thanks to Bush killing of half."

Oh let me play...

Lets see...

An Iraqi Mother:

(in Arabic) Son go down to the local cafe and get three pounds of black tea... get the good british stuff, here use this US dollar given to us by the US government...

Son on the way home:

(in english) Hi Sgt Ryder, Its me Abdul, remember me when you stopped those sunni's from raping my sister and tearing her in 1/4's? Well she and my mother send their love and they pray for you 5 times a day...

(Sgt Ryder just smiles)

Son on the way home runs into other arab kids:

(in arabic, for fear of the sunni spies) I hate the americans, (spits), dirty thieving bastards led by Bush, may thier hummers blow up on the road today (as he tucks the fine british tea under his arms and waves good bye.

Son to his mother:

(in arabic) Im home, mom, sgt ryder still has his men protecting the neighborhood, I'm sure glad they are here!

Sorry, I guess I'm not too good at this game...

I'm too busy to check, but a day or two I heard something interesting about Kyoto. Although we hadn't joined, we are the only industrial nation that has reduced our carbon footprint. Other industrialized nations are trading carbon credits to comply. They are not really decreasing their levels.

Anyone with good resources checking ability and time to verify this?
