Global Warming: Do As I Say Not As I Do
This small blurb says nothing we don't already know, but presents the facts as succinctly as any similar blurb. Here is my favorite excerpt:
"They [climate alarmists] were also less green in traveling to work than medics, and kept more dogs and cats. A recent study suggested pets are a hefty ecological burden. It takes more than two acres of grazing pasture to keep a medium-sized dog fed with meat, while the eco-footprint of a cat is similar to a Volkswagen Golf."
So next time someone criticizes your ride for having twice the fuel consumption of his sports wagon, just ask him how much warmer his apartment is with all the cat farts.

about yesterday I came across a quote which I did not take seriously enough.
It said the carbon footprint of a domestic cat is the same as that of a VW Golf.
Now I can bash that intruding ginger cat from next door with a clear conscience.
Moocher would not let me touch it for months. Now it wants me to pet it all the time. All the time ouside is where it can stay too.
Moocher rarely farts in my presence; but when he does--WHOA!
