Currently we are giving a tax credit of $2,000 per child per year. That is a lot of money, also churches should have to pay income and property tax. We could solve all of our financial problems right there provided we also stop the wars. We would be rolling in money.
and these figures mean what? 12 tons sounds like a lot, but it's just a molecule in a raindrop in the ocean...YOU "create" that much CO2 personally. those things don't "create" CO2. CO2 in part of the cycle of life, and actually, CO2 levels are at the lowest point in the earth's history. CO2 is NOT the main component of "greenhouse gasses", it's about 3% and human "produced" CO2 is about .10% of that. the MAIN "greenhouse gas" is still WATER VAPOR at 95%. ban water!braincell wrote:The average home creates 12 tons of CO2 per year. A small car produces 3 tons of CO2 per year. To hide your head in the sand is just blatant ignorance.
Gary, you've mentioned this point quite a few times, but I've never heard you mention that the state of California (at least until VERY recently) has been using more OIL per year than the WHOLE of China. Is that not a problem given that as a result it's probably one of the most polluted places on the planet, yet not by far one of the most densely populated?garyb wrote:the FACT that the earth is bigger than you thought, and that all the people in it can fit in Texas with 1100 square feet to spare
You tell me. All I'm saying is that California has a record of using an obscene amount of oil given it's population density.garyb wrote:who says it's good to use lots of oil?
Who said there's a shortage of oil?garyb wrote:there's no oil shortage at all, not for ever, only a shortage of refining
