Green, the new big lie.
carbon dioxide is NOT pollution.
global warming may or may not be happening, but it was warmer 800 years agao that it is now, the Earth is still recovering from "The Little Ice Age" and it may take another 100 years before temps are what they were when it started.
but the big lie is being shoved at us all from all diretions. wonder why? look at al-gore's bank accounts and you'll see the reason.
conserving energy and resources is not the issue, that has always been the best way to live, but using lies to convince people, when after the lies are discovered will simply put people off on the whole point of the excersice.
