Fat People Cause Global Warming http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2387203.ece Quote: Scientists warned that the increase in big-eaters means more food production — a major cause of CO2 gas emissions warming the planet. Overweight people are also more likely to drive, adding to environmental damage. Thank God for left leaning scientists, huh? Quote: Dr Phil Edwards, of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said: “Moving about in a heavy body is like driving in a gas guzzler.” Each fat person is said to be responsible for emitting a tonne more of climate-warming carbon dioxide per year than a thin one. It means an extra BILLION TONNES of CO2 a year is created, according to World Health Organisation estimates of overweight people. Well now I know I have to get in shape. Forget the health benefits. Forget living long and having fun. That's not what matters anymore. If we don't get in shape people the world is going to melt! __________________ Lucas McCain the Rifleman: A man doesn't run from a fight, Mark...but that doesn't mean you should go running to one, either.

You know what I think really. This just proves that things like global warming are just being used to try and manipulate people into doing whatever they think needs to be done. Now here's my thought. Just be honest. Tell people to lose weight because it's bad for your health to be overweight. __________________ Lucas McCain the Rifleman: A man doesn't run from a fight, Mark...but that doesn't mean you should go running to one, either.

Well, here's the thing. We know we have something on our hands with the climate change. We know it's being manipulated by different parties for different reasons. Many are unfortunately negative, whether political gain, to sell books & DVDs, create 'necessary' jobs & regulation, or create more fearmongering in the media. How bad is it really going to get? We might not find out until it happens. Priorities do need to change if we're ever to avert the worst case scenarios some of them like to scream about.

It's just not sensational or controversial enough to sell on air or get campaign contributions over. __________________ But the backdrops peel and the sets give way and the cast get eaten by the play, there's a murderer at the matinee, there are dead men in the aisles And the patrons and the actors too are uncertain if the show is through and with sidelong looks await their cue, but the frozen mask just smiles

If this is true, then Al Gore needs to lay off on all the donuts. He's part of the problem. __________________ "If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under." - Ronald Reagan
