The global impact of burping lambs

posted by Susan Johnson | 10:32am Sunday May 24, 2009

OK, greenies. Here’s the situation, you have to switch from lambs to cows (or chicken and pork), Even though they are smaller, they generate more CO2 than cows. Also, you have to give up Hot House tomatoes because they generate way too much CO2 And you have to give up your beer for soda. But the best news of the day is that you have to switch from chicken to chocolate.
There is actually a governmental agency in England that calculates the carbon footprints of the food the British consume. Tax payer money well spent. Maybe there are people who will actually change their lifestyle because they believe their actions can impact the climate (those with narcissistic disorder perhaps?) but I doubt very many are going to switch foods just because they’re afraid of the sea levels raising an inch or two.
If people who said they cared about global warming actually cared, they would be pushing for nuclear energy and wouldn’t be flying private planes all over the world.
So, how about it, greenies? You ready to give up your beer for the planet?

One Final Word
My dear friend Michele slipped into eternity on Wednesday, February 1.   She was a remarkable woman who left a legacy of faith, determination, and love. For three years she courageously battled the ovarian cancer that eventually robbed her of her life.  A few days before she died, one of her docto

The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated
My husband told me that there are rumors that I've died. I'm happy to report that I'm still very much alive. My cancer has gone to stage four but we are controlling it with chemo, the cancer numbers are currently in the normal range. I've stopped blogging to concentrate on my daughters and writing a

An update and a prayer request
Several people have asked about Michele's condition, and have promised to pray for her. On her behalf, I thank you for that. I spoke with her a little while ago, and she asked that I come here and tell you what's going on, and to ask you to pray for her. She isn't able to post here herself right

The peace that passes all understanding, pt. 1
I'm coming out of my normal hiding place to make a few comments. The internet is a strange place. It is often a wonderful place, a helpful place, a unifying place. But it is also alienating, cold, and is the perfect medium in which to depersonalize others. Through it, I have seen people reach out

How many Reformed Christians are there on the planet? A hundred million?
God hath favored them with wealth, so they have a much higher carbon footprint than other humans. So perhaps rather than niggling the difference between beer and soda, we should invest in a crash program to travel to Mars, where we deposit all the Reformed Christians, let them have a world unto themselves and their low-gravity Jesus.

Oh, Michelle, you are such a fascist idiot (but I mean that in the nice way, like the way you use the terms Obamanite and Greenie).

I know…if we kill the little lambie pies soon enough they won’t be able to generate that much CO2.

All the hard core greens are localvore vegans who wouldn’t go near soda or alcohol anyway.

Artesian carbonated water and liqueurs distilled from dandelions from your yard are just fine with me, MH. I do not object to veal, however, for exactly the reason MzEllen lists for little lambies. Delicious!
