New Global Warming Alarmism from LA Times: 'The World is Running Short on Air Pollution'

Not to worry. a volcano in Iceland is pumping out thousands of tons of pollutants.

But, they would say, that's natural and not pollution. It's only pollution if humans do something over and above whatever anything other than humans does.

I have coal capabile stack & stove; this summer I’m building a coal bin. At $120/ton and a BTU rating per ton => 2X a cord of low quality locally available fire wood, I’ll do my share as well.

As a bonus, it will be nice not to have to put wood in the stove every hour or two, since the coal has a much longer burn time.

Like a whore, NOBODY can buy a politician!

RENTING them now and then, as needed, OTOH....

I’m in a part of the country where a couple of communities have seriously considered banning the use of cigars and suchlike in outdoor public places, some have even ventured a ban in backyards.

I can’t even light a sparkler without breaking the law.

Coal, you’d get snitched on for that around here.

Ah, remember the good old days, when a politician was bought, he STAYED bought.

And it will run even shorter now:

I used to live in a place like that. Annual vehicle inspections; 'EPA certified' wood stoves only, and only on 'approved' days; (un)H---H--- raised about 'too much dust pollution' from logging trucks on forest roads, IF the envirowhacks didn't manage to appeal to death a lost case against a timber sale or even private land logging; one had top apply for permits to cut any DEAD trees on their own property; the state was making noise about putting water meters on private wells, and charging for the water; gun-unfriendly, etc.

Here, the local feed store sells bulk coal; I can cut & sell all the firewood I want, or cut & mill or sell my own timber; if it runs, I can drive it; if it doesn't burn the house down, I can fire it up...and I can even hunt (small game & vermin) legally without a license on my own land...even water fowl, if I have the Fed stamp.
