Oh. My. GOD. Not CARBON!!! Not CARBON - the fundamental building block of all life on Earth!!! Not CARBON, which, when mixed with oxygen in just the right proprotions, forms a perfect PLANT FOOD! Not CARBON, which can be morphed into such insidious products as Diamonds, Coal and Graphite!!! Please god no! Say it isn't CARBON!!!!
Skeeters.
The greenies are simply terrified at the prospect of vast areas of permafrost region warming enough to permit the cultivation of winter wheat, thereby making it possible to feed more people.
Besides all that, no one is even close to understanding the global carbon cycle.
I wish I could remember which FReeper posted this first, but...

Today we use it's various toxic byproducts for botox, bioweapons, and everything in the tween.
'twas I!
Toe fungus.
"Did I forget anything?"
At least one other that I recall: Cyclemates(sp?) An artificial sweetner used in diet soda in the late 60's early 70's.
PCB's, cyclimates, asbestos, the sun, love canal, acid rain, florida alligators, bermuda triangle, we don't stand a chance, we'll all going to die!
No need for a frown! It was cast into the freeper domain for use to high-light all the absurd everything is a crisis reporting from the MSM--Heck, I even left off the latest KFC cooking oil lawsuit. Just too many things to worry about if you take the MSM seriously.
I can believe it. I live in the desert, and there's either too much rain, which creates fuel for summer fires, or not enough, which dries out the fuel for summer fires, which means there's always a "high fire danger" in summer. What it really boils down to, though, is that the government(s) don't want you going out into the wilderness and possibly starting a fire that they have to spend money putting out, money they've already spent on something else (like "education").
;O)
This is a win win for Russia and Canada. If Global Warming REALLY kicks off, they beomce the new breadbaskets of the world.
The tundra is actually carbonated water that was stored there by space aliens who used it for soft drinks.
They're gonna be mad if we drink it all. /sarcasm
(We're all gonna DIE!!!) >>
