Assume for the moment that I, the great inventor that I am, found a way to suck carbon dioxide out the air and store it in shoe boxes in my refrigerator. And furthermore, I discovered that I could store all of the a years worth of human generated SeeOhTwo in a single shoe box.

Question: Would the left support my plan?

I’ll answer that for you: Of course they wouldn’t. They have no interest whatsoever in CO2, the environment or the survival of the species with minor exceptions that happen to include themselves. It is all about POWER. That’s it. That’s all there is to the whole Global Warming/Climate Change/ Killer Tornado/ You name it Hoax.

Capitalist left to their own devices eventually will produce the most product while producing less waste, because it is in their own interest.

Today, the "Capitalists" don't even know what companies they have a stake in with the stock market....They dump stocks at the drop of a hat if the next quarters' earnings look bad. Nobody can afford to think long-term anymore, it's get what you can now, and dump the problems on some other sucker's lap.

These enviro groups look at themselves and say, “look how enlightened and caring I am.” I hear, and see what they say, and do and say, “look what the ignorant and maxist are doing to the poor.”

Did you get your information from the Internet?

It doesn’t sound plausible. ..

It looks like you're have to let it idle until you burn 285,383,500 gallons of gasoline if you want us to pass China.

China is ahead by 2,853,835 tons of CO2. One gallon of gasoline produces about 20 lbs of CO2.

It seems impossible that a gallon of gasoline, which weighs about 6.3 pounds, could produce 20 pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) when burned.

You may need to change the plugs a "few" times, as well as the air filter.

:-)

(on the good side, at least you'll have a good excuse to "blow the carbon out of the plugs" every once in a while!)
