A man after my own heart!
Danish environmentalist Bjorn Lomborg has said:
"We have numerous problems, but limited human and financial resources.
We have to set priorities. Climate change can wait. Human health can't."

ROTFLMAO this would be hilarious were it not so serious!!!
May 20, 2008
According to this ABC carbon calculator, I should have died before my
second birthday.
After re-calculating - with answers pleasing to the ABC - this response
appeared:
You can live forever!
UPDATE. Skeptic Lawyer, who was told she should die at the age of 5.4:
What an evil, evil little application! Just imagine that some
impressionable child comes along to the website and finds out that his
family should have "died" at the age of 4.3. That is just despicable. It
actually reminds me of an incident which occurred when I was 6 years
old, involving a Religious Education teacher telling me that my parents
were going to hell because they were heathens. (Incidentally, being a
logical type, I worked out if she was right, I'd rather be in Hell with
Mum and Dad, but if she was wrong, who cares, so either way, I may as
well reject her religion with impunity).
These are the kinds of things which just should not be put to a kid. Or
to anyone really.

Believe it or not, Congress is still secretly attempting to pass some
form of amnesty for illegal aliens. Our elected officials still
haven't gotten the message that the American public DOES NOT want
amnesty in any way, shape or form.
House Democratic leaders are currently proposing a secret backroom
amnesty deal that would create a special type of Visa ONLY for illegal
aliens! And 14 members are Congress are currently even suing to stop
the building of a border fence, saying it would violate the Clean Air
Act!
Join the campaign to STOP AMNESTY by visiting the following www.stopamnesty.net

Over and over, the American people have risen up to pressure Congress
to oppose passage of amnesty legislation. Yet Congress continues to
come back, year after year, proposing amnesty and hoping...

February 13:
PRIME Minister Kevin Rudd has told parliament the former Coalition
government did nothing to relieve upward pressure on food and petrol
prices.
"In the period of the previous government, which had more than 11
years to act on both these matters, they did nothing and nothing,'' Mr
Rudd said.
May 22:
PETROL prices have been forecast to soon hit $1.70 a litre, putting
further pressure on the Federal Government to act.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said the Government had done "as much as we
physically can" to help.

High gas prices force cops to walk the beat more
May 22, 2:50 PM (ET)
By JEFFREY COLLINS
(AP) Newberry Police Sgt. Andy Rowe fills up his tank as the city is
finding ways to cut the use of gas...
Full Image
NEWBERRY, S.C. (AP) - With gasoline climbing toward $4 a gallon, police
officers around the country are losing the right to take their patrol
cars home and are being forced to double up in cruisers and walk the
beat more.
The gas crunch could also put an end to the time-honored way cops leave
their engines running when they get out to investigate something.
Some police chiefs think the moneysaving measures are not all bad, and
might actually help them do a better job. But they worry about the loss
of take-home cars, saying the sight of a cruiser parked in a driveway or
out in front of a home deters neighborhood crime.

The Earth's size makes some people think there's enough room
for a never-ending boom.
***********************************
Maybe not a "never-ending boom" but we're currently nowhere near the
limit of the earth's resources!
There's plenty enough room for the current boom!
