FREE! Carbon Offsets

READ THIS and get 27,000 Carbon Offset Credits FREE!

Good for 5 outdoor barbecues

''They do the Carbon Emissions Offset? What is that -- a '60s dance craze? No, it's way hotter. I mean, cooler. All the movie stars are doing it. In fact, this year's Oscar goodie-bag that all the nominees get included a year's worth of carbon offsets. Totally free. So even the stars' offsets are offset. No wonder that, when they're off the set, they all do the offset. Look at Leonardo DiCaprio: He's loaded with 'em, and the chicks think he's totally eco-cool. Tall and tan and young and lovely, the boy with carbon offsets goes walking and when he passes each one he passes goes aaaiiieeeeeeeee!

''How do "carbon offsets" work? Well, let's say you're a former vice president and you want to reduce your "carbon footprint," but the gorgeous go-go Gore gals are using the hair dryer every night. So you go to a carbon-credits firm and pay some money and they'll find a way of getting somebody on the other side of the planet to reduce his emissions and the net result will be "carbon neutral." It's like in Henry VIII's day. He'd be planning a big ox roast and piling on the calories but he'd give a groat to a starving peasant to carry on starving for another day and the result would be calorie-neutral.'' -  Mark Steyn

  2. Did you know that the USA is roughly carbon-neutral? All our forests, and fields of corn, wheat and pot, suck down about as much CO2 as our SUVs, factories and potheads spew out.

    Prevailing winds blow west-to-east. So you measure the CO2 in air blowing onto the West Coast, then when it blows off the East Coast. There's no significant difference.

    Therefore, Al Gore needs to GET OFF OUR BACKS!

  3. Forget it Bob. This, like most everything else coming out of leftist cells is about "winning." Winning what? Don't matter, as long as they win. They've got stars on thars

  4. ROFLOL! That's the only explanation of carbon credits that has made sense to me! And especially the calorie offset.
    Love it. Thanks for sharing.

  5. This sounds very much like indulgences that the Roman Catholic church used to sell.

    Yet more proof that Global Warming is simply a cult.
