Subject: Iceland Volcano Information

This has been going on 4 Billion years.
Long, long, long, before mankind, combustion engines, or cattle herds
were around to expel carbon dioxide. Nothing really new
about climate change on Earth. It's been going
on for Billions of years and it will be going on for billions of years
after something has replaced species homo sapiens. All of you out there in America and across the
globe who have fought so hard to tackle the hideous enemy of our planet,
namely carbon emissions, you know ....that bogus god you worship of
"Climate Change" or "global warming" ....well, I feel it is necessary to
inform you of some bad news. It really does pain me to have to bring you
this disappointing information.
Are you sitting
down?

Okay,
here's the bombshell. The current volcanic eruption going on in
Iceland, since its first spewing of volcanic ash this past week, has, to
this point, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five
years to control CO2 emissions on our
planet.



I know, I know.... (group hug)...it's very
disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you
have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of:
driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up til
midnight to finish your kid's "The Green Revolution" science project,
throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two
squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir,
selling your SUV and speedboat, going on vacation to a city park instead
of Yosemite, nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all
of your $1 light bulbs with $10 light bulbs ...well, all of those things
you have done have all gone down the tubes in just the past four
days.

The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's
atmosphere in the past four days has totally erased every single effort
you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And, those
hundreds of thousands of American jobs you helped move
to Asia with expensive emissions demands on
businesses... you know, the ones that are creating even more emissions
than when they were creating American jobs, well I just know that seems
worthwhile now.

I'm so sorry. And I do wish I had a silver
lining to this volanic ash cloud but the fact of the matter is that the
brush fire season across the western U.S.A. will start in about two
months and those fires will negate your efforts to reduce carbon in our
world for the next two years.

But hey, grab a Coke, give the world a hug and
have a nice day!

Whoa, wait, my homo sapiens species is being replaced? Damn, I need to spend more time in the hobby. Thanks for the heads up!

does that make it any less imperative, it murder rate spikes because of influx of visitors from a town east of us, should I just give up and not do anything.

Although I am not an expert, the idea was they we have affected climate change... not global warming. IE, upset a balance that has spikes here and there, but not a sustain change in the process.

but then again I am not an expert.....

In 5 billion years or so the earth will no longer support life. So, what happens during the next year, 1000 years, or million years, doesn't really matter that much.

Those crazy monkeys will have certainly scorched the earth a few times over by then.

Hope that cheered everyone up a little.

What's really gonna fuck everybody up is when the temps in the northern hemisphere drop dramatically and the ice cap starts growing due to the crap in the atmosphere blocking the sun's rays.
To think we could actually affect the balance of nature.....................

We have no control over "natural disasters.". We can control our own output.

At the end of the day, it's about how you live your life: wasteful or mindful.

My carbon footprint is bigger than yours
