I mean the words I never saw a discontented tree.

Muir

А то глядишь, опять какая-нибудь демократия к ним придёт и полный кирдык. Макдоналдс, безумные цены и демонстрации протеста.

При демократии люди живут лучше всего. Время уже доказало.

That's how they make 'em in Norwegia.

Way to be a tree-hugger, man.

"The Toyota Prius: an expensive, very complex, not terribly green, slow, cheaply made and pointless way of moving around."

I agree. Therefore, I drive the Honda Civic

Also a very complex, not terribly green, pointless way of moving around.

A single cow contributes more greenhouse gas annually than driving a Range Rover 10,000 miles.

Yeah Because methane and carbondioxide is like the same thing! Hey, are you trying to burst my bubble? I live in the Silicon Valley, I know all about bubbles, mister!

No, it's even worse.

"Methane is a greenhouse gas with a global warming potential over 100 years of 23 (IPCC Third Assesment Report) i.e. when averaged over 100 years each kg of CH4 warms the earth 23 times as much as the same mass of CO2." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methane

Ouch.

You know, if we invent some sort of mechanism to trap all that methane, we would have an excellent source of hydrogen! We could become rich!

I'm working on it... seriously...
It's probably already been done though. That's the problem with living in an advanced civlization.
