The terrorists would be out of luck. Maybe they could use hot air balloons?
We really should make them shut down the airlines if they are serious about cutting CO2 output. It would bring about an egalitarian utopia by eliminating "fly over country" and the fruit loops can drive back and forth from coast to coast.
(/sarcasm off)

I wish someone would ask Mr. Branson how much polution his business pumps into the upper atmosphere? How many Jets? How much Jet exhaust?
Soon he'd be burning rubber at the very top of the atmoshere with SpaceShip II. That's not being an environmentalist... Is it?
Branson is a Hypocrit of the highest order.

I, too, am on a hilltop in WV that hasn't seen a temp above freezing in weeks. Then the damn wind keeps blowing and it is a never ending task to plow the long driveway (paying the price for December's mild weather convincing me of no need to put up the snow fence this year.)
I'm almost ready for one of these V8 Snowblowers

Branson is doing something most libs don't do. Using his own money. No, he's offering his own money. However, he knows damn well that the task is impossible. Therefore, he'll never actually have to hand over "his own money."

"Unless we can devise a way of removing CO2 (carbon dioxide) from the earth's atmosphere we will lose half of all species on earth, all the coral reefs, 100 million people will be displaced, farmlands will become deserts and rain forests wastelands."
Well, we had better figure out a way to keep volcanos from happening and the sun from having activity, then.
Utter BS, just like the the secondhand smoke hysteria coming from the same people.

come up with a way of scrubbing greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere Why bother with co2.
If you're going to attempt this, deal with the most common greenhouse gas.
Fortunately, the machine already exists....
The dehumidifier.

That's what I need alright!
This morning it has "warmed up" to 10 degrees F, but there's still a foot of snow on the ground.
We're up over 3000 ft, and as you know it's a different world up in the hills.
This "global warming" BS has one goal in mind:
To get a global hand into America's pocket.
If When the ready, willing, and able globalists in our own government
(who hate our sovereignty) get the chance, they will get US on the global bandwagon.
They have already done a good job of brainwashing every generation past the boomers.
Don't believe it? Just talk to them.

Sir Dickie, do your part. Shut down your pollution-spewing Virgin airlines!

I'm about to be buried by up to 2.5 FEET of Global Warming in the next 24 hours...
If I pray to St. Gore (Algore Akhbar! May Endangered bird poo be upon him!) will he save me???

"If I pray to St. Gore (Algore Akhbar! May Endangered bird poo be upon him!) will he save me???" Only if you say "3 Hail Alberts" and "1 Big Brother".
I did and after only 24 hours stuck in the ice on I-78 in PA, a salt shaker miraculously appeared and I was rescued!
