The truth about Global warming from BBC!

[Valkyrie]

This takes about 1hr 13 min to play. To boil it down, the Gore group is correlating CO2 to global warming. The problem is that the CO2 increase occurs after the warming phenomenum by about 2-4 centuries. Obviously cause and effect cannot reconcile the Gore group's position that CO2 is the cause of warming.
This is a very interesting documentary that reveals why much money is to be made with this scam.

For a fun read that also discusses the psuedo science panic of global warming, pick up "State of Fear" by Michael Crichton.

Thank you I read it about a year ago .Also a thoughtful analysis in an very good story.

yea, totally... we can burn coal for centuries without any adverse side effects! In all seriousness why the fuck people settle for 10 mpg while the japanese auto makers own this country in auto sales with 30mpg now is hilarious.

Either way green = cash in your pocket. If you don't want better gas mileage, and lower electric bills you're a straight up idiot.

This is actually the epocal warming that will always happen before we start the next real ice age......It has been proven. I'll be dead so who da fuck cares anyhow. Like the world will be a better place to live in in 100yrs anyhow, c'mon. Worry more about the fucking ragheads than the weather chumps!!!

Unfortunately, that's not true yet. Going green, at least for cars, costs more money right now.

Taking an example of a Honda Civic, since it has both gasoline-only and hybrid versions, so we can do an apples to apples comparison. If you bought the hybrid, you'd have to drive more than 300,000 miles before the hybrid saved you money. That's a very long ROI if you ask me.... too long to justify paying the extra cost for the hybrid.

Going off published specs, the hybrid costs about $6,200 more than the regular, and gets 51 MPG instead of 40 MPG. If gas costs $3.50 a gallon, then per mile, you use about 2 cents less worth of gas per mile in the hybrid. Of course there are other factors involved, like tax incentives and maintenance costs, but I'm guessing the added maintenance costs of a hybrid would counter-act the tax incentives.... maybe I'm wrong though.

Also read an interesting article about how the Prius is a 100k miles car while a Hummer is a 300k miles vehicle. This article claims it's actually cheaper to own a Hummer. And, the nickle they smelt for the batteries in a Prius has destroyed the eco-system in a portion of Ontario, Canada.

lol do you know anyone who has a hummer? They're in the shop more than they're on the road. Land Rovers are nicknamed "hummer recovery vehicles". If you're taking a real hummer that might be a different story, but H2's are POS.
