Obama Inauguration’s Mammoth Carbon Footprint
Outside the sun is shining and it’s 7(F) degree. Inside I’m less than warm and cozy: according to the “religion” of Global Warming, it’s a “sin” if I crank up my heater. Even so, a site called The Chilling Effect has put together some figures relating to the Obama Inauguration, figures which point out the massive hypocrisy of politicians and celebrities.
According to Chilling Effect, Obama’s “housewarming” will produce a staggering 575 million POUNDS of CO2. How long before an “average” household produces this big of a carbon footprint? An astounding 57,598 years.
So while I’m struggling with my conscience on whether or not to turn up the thermostat–throwing a log on the fire is out the question, too much pollution–celebrities and bigwigs will be flying into D.C. on their private jets, an estimated 25,320,000 POUNDS of CO2. The very same celebrities and bigwigs who preach that unless we cut back on our emissions our planet will die.
