How many equivalent cow farts does Sasquatch Gore’s GIII Gulfstream jet spew into the atmosphere on a monthly basis. Not to mention that stretch limo flatulence.

There are many ways to reduce global warming; that is, if you believe GW is caused by human. Some examples: stop any physical development of housing, impose one-child policy in every country, require people to ride a bike, put 200% tax on any kind of car, truck, etc. Hmmm... I just realized that some of them actually have been done...

And after that, it will ba another 10%. Elimination of overpopulation is a stated goal.

It must have been a furnace before the evil white man killed the carpet of bison that used to cover North America

If we eat less meat, where will all the livestock go? Wouldn’t less eating = more livestock = more methane emission = more climate change?

Oy! Death spiral!

Minkey, I don't see a minkey.

Chief Inspector, I assure you I didn't eat the minkey.

Let me eat more meat; God made it, it’s edible, it’s tasty, I’ll eat it!

What do I get out of it (even if ‘global warming’ were real)? This is a ‘distraction-indocrination’ issue: it’s manufactured just to give the ‘people’ something to worry about!

Will these idiots ever shut up. You would think the sight of Fat Al getting off of a jet to put his fat butt into an SUV would convince them it’s a scam.

Eating more plant life will cause you to die earlier. You are not getting the vitamin B’s you need.

I hear that closing abortion mills, allowing prayer in public schools, cutting taxes, repealing gun-control laws, going to church, and voting for Duncan Hunter will also reduce global warming. Go to it, libs.

PETA WHACKOS SEE AN OPENING TO ADVANCE THEIR AGENDA! Shocked. I'm shocked I tell you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I get your point, no sarcasm tag necesary. Anybody with a brain who can think or read and not regurgitate MSM talking points knows what this is about....

Nobody gave a shit about liberal causes like trees and cows. So invent something like Global Warming that makes things a little more personal. Give up your SUV and Veal Parm or YOU will burn in a great ball of fire!

Exactly! Wouldn't the solution therefore be to KILL more animals so they don't mess up the precious atmosphere?

That's the thing with left wing Socialists and some members of the extreme religious right. They are naturally miserable people who will never be happy until everyone conforms to their world view.

The idea that somebody, somewhere is enjoying a steak and cigarette haunts progressives. They must cringe when they pass a McDonalds or hear Sean Hannity advertising Ruths Chris steakhouse.

Eating less meat could help slow global warming by reducing the number of livestock

Eating more meat can also reduce the number of livestock. ;-)

Reducing their numbers? Planned cattlehood? Bovine contraception?
