Here’s an environmental impact story you’re not likely to see in the mainstream media. Neither NBC’s chief environmental affair correspondent Anne Thompson, nor ABC correspondent Bill Blakemore nor CBS “60 Minutes” correspondent Scott Pelley – all of whom have been eager over the years to expose so-called crimes against the environment – have rushed to report on the massive carbon footprint of the Obama inauguration.
But a comprehensive new study by The Institute for Liberty (IFL) took an in-depth look at each component of the Jan. 20 inauguration in Washington, D.C., and estimated that 575 million pounds of carbon dioxide will be emitted in the atmosphere for the inauguration – which is roughly equal to what the average American household would produce in 57,598 years.

and most of the stuff that comes out of Hussein’s mouth will be half a billion pounds of BS..
I think all the flatulance will do the most damage to the environment. There is going to be a green fog over D.C. for at least four years.
It’s not the CO2 we need to be worried about. We should be more concerned about all the Obama BS that will follow the inauguration. IMHO ;-)
I’d bet that doesn’t include the thousands of pounds of CH4 they’ll produce.
Then they’ll just have to call it off.....or Dear Leader could wave his magic hand and make the carbon go away.
Al Gore is no where to be seen when the weather gets cold like this. (-40 North Dakota). He waits ‘til it warms up again before he comes out of his energy sucking mansion.

We're going to need serious de-programming for this brain-frozen society. Perhaps we can start with the fact that CO2 is not a pollutant.
half a billion pounds of what? S**T!
Al told Zero “It’s OK” just tell all the people in the Northern Midwest that they need to give back to teh country by turning their furnaces off for the day.
good one!

Liberals don’t care when they are the culprits. It’s only important when someone else is violating their beliefs.
In the case of human waste it is likely a zero-sum game. If they weren’t doing it in DC they would be doing it somewhere else.
That much CO2 from Obama’s speech?
