Is there any studies that shows what car(s) global warming scientist recommend?
As well as what car(s) they actually drive?
Likewise,do they all live in tiny homes..
Oh, right carbon credits...har har.

Here ya go...

“By volume, dry air contains 78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.04% carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases. Air also contains a variable amount of water vapor, on average around 1% at sea level, and 0.4% over the entire atmosphere.”

Can you be an environmentalist and still drive a car?

No. Absolutely not. And animals are a huge source of greenhouse gas emissions. You need to go totally pre-Neolithic.

Take one for the team and Mother Terra.

The 61 cylinders between my twelve cars/motorcycles would appreciate it.

How about we start by shackling the author to a bicycle driven generator and feeding him bean sprouts.

I commute 150 miles round trip every day and very much enjoy it in my FR-S on the twisties of KY. 155k miles and 8 sets of tires.

And I burned a lot of gas. I get around $500 back on my costco card every year as a kickback from all the gas I bought.

The automobile, after all, is a significant contributor to climate change.

"After all?"

Says who?

I want anyone who has received government money to study or promote this nonsense put under oath and forced to defend it.

The Tranna Grope and Flail...

While the Tranna (Red) Star is the unofficial propaganda arm of the Lieberals, the Tranna Grope and Flail tries to appear ‘conservative’. In reality, it is the paper of the banks, all headquartered in Tranna, the NWO, merely a crony capitalist paper.

Both are useful only to line the bottom of bird cages.

0.04% carbon dioxide,


So if my math is right, if there were about twice as much CO2 in the atmosphere, we’d be getting up to about the same level as Indian in Elizabeth Warren.

I didn’t read it. Is this a treatise on learning to drive on the ice? With the radical solar mimima of the present era that is the likely need.
