thanks for noticing…I try to do my part!!
omg @deniro781 you are unbelievable arrogant….
my carbon footprint is embedded in the asses of all the factless brainwashed green movement zealot shitheads, who don’t understand their really working in favor of the enemy.
damn i love my carbon footprint. if you won’t leave one then i’ll just have to take another step or two!!!
higher co2 = better plant growth. Makes sense to me. maybe you global warming dipshits would rather starve countries than increase co2 emissions. Plants need co2. why did plants and trees grow so big during the time of the dinosaurs. it was because there was so much more co2 in the atosphere. you people will follow any snake oil sales man who knocks on your door. take a science or horticulture class and quit listening to your friends and fucking idiots like al gore.
I’m happy enough i dont have a Carbon Footprint as i drive everywhere!
Doing the right thing is reducing our Carbon Footprint
the minute I saw this ad on the discovery channel I wanted to see it again ! it’s brilliant !
C.A.R.B.O.N.
F.O.O.T.P.R.I.N.T.S. = “Could Atmosphere Really Be Overheated Now From Oregonians Own Truck Pollution Realized In Never-endingly Tracking Sasquatch?”
Proving Global warming is like trying to catch Bigfoot…. It doesn’t happen. Al Gore avoids debates for good reason: he can’t win!
One of the greatest commercials, I’ve ever seen:O!
funfsinn14, I can agree with your reply but, something needs to be done, and it CANNOT WAIT…I pray for my fellow-man.
MAKE NO MISTAKE, MY INDEPENDENT FRIEND, THE WORLD WILL SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, WITH, OR-WITHOUT US….PEOPLE ARE SIMPLY GOING TO HAVE TO SACRIFICE AND THAT IS IT.
thnnx for posting this it really made me think.
My mustang GT has a giant CFP. Especially without the emmision controll. I have so much power I can outrun the carbon foot print. ANd I do this all fucking day
of course i do, it really goes without saying. in general, though, the history of govt as a protector of the environment is very poor. it is fact that government, both federal and local, is the greatest single polluter in the US. environmental types raise all this money for lobbying in vain while that money could be used for truly beneficial envirn’t projects. why ppl think that giving govt more power to destroy the envrnmnt, while robbing productive citizens, is beyond me.
Do you even care about protecting the environment for the future of human sustainability at all?
wow how shortsighted (disclaimer: I am not a Republican and I am definitely not stuch in the left-right paradigm as you seem to be). Taxes hurt everybody except the special interests, even then in the long term they are hurt. i hope u realize that govt has a really poor record when it comes to taxes and their stated uses. the carbon tax is just another attempt to enslave us all.
All you people bitching about “carbon tax” SHOULD SHUT THE FUCK UP!!
MOST OF YOU THAT ARE BITCHING ARE ALREADY RICH REPUBLICANS ANYWAY SO, SAVE THE DRAMA FOR YOUR MAMA.
questions?
completely natural? all species? throughout history?
Taxes never accomplish any goal the carbon tax will be a means of control. We need to grow hemp to replace timber and plastics in products. Solar and Wind microgeneration since these types of power loose energy over long power lines. Home permaculture to reduce the need for large scale agriculture. Nuclear, geothermal, clean coal, and hydroelectric power until more advanced power sources comes online. Electric cars are no good due to batteries so bio diesel and hydrogen power for most autos.
People, don’t allow others to make you feel guilty about things such as this when corporations that made this commercial probably dumped tons of oil or pollutants into the environment last year. Take responsibility, but don’t let em’ tax you. Especially for the stuff trees breathe in and give back as oxygen! If we want real change, the whole system needs to be redone. Not more taxing, you can’t give money to the earth; so who gets the $…..?
Beware of more taxes due to your “carbon foot print”. Real solutions do not lie in further taxation they lie in innovation like hydrogen automobiles.
The money spent on making this commercial could have probably recycled a couple of tons of aluminum.
Grandpa can finally dies..
that argument might hold an ounce of credibility if species didn’t get extinct for completely natural reasons.
