Re: I wonder of Al is still eating his tenderloin
you should test my "emissions". i bet they're worse than cows. especially with what my body has decided to do with milk this year. (and only just this year, btw.) i know of plenty of people who've lived a hundred years eating LOADS of meat. every time i've gotten sick off food, it was from a plant.
why don't you do a little research on the subject in, i dunno, scientific journals instead of the peta website.

Re: I wonder of Al is still eating his tenderloin
how exactly am i hypocritial for eating meat? hypocritical does not mean "bad," it means "contradictory n practice from speech." if i said "meat is bad" but ate it anyways, then i would be a hypocrite. what about me eating meat does this?

Re: I wonder of Al is still eating his tenderloin
Methane is a good green issue, however; we should be capturing it to generate energy.
that's a good point, i entirely forgot. rural china has some of the worst air pollution problems in the world. they also have very little in the way of modern conveniences. now, rural china is a HUGE area, so i'm sure there are several little towns with t4 wifi just to prove me wrong. whatever. in a few areas, there have been programs to reduce both of these problems by building special pig farms. the pigs live on top of a grate and the gunk drops down and the methan is collected and is processed and utilized to power the farm and more. i'm sure there are still some nasty leftovers, but it's a decent process. actually, environmental concerns are a huge way the chinese are getting involved in their government and starting to build up a more "democratised" feeling of individual influence on the government.

i like the morningstar "chicken" nuggets. i'm sure they're worse than regular stuff, but i only use them as an excuse to eat ketchup anyways.

wind energy costs?
he's referring to the fact that someone has to make the thing that captures the wind. it's probably made of metal or plastic. if it's made out of plastic, it's nonrenewable. if it's made out of metal, you had to burn something to heat it up.
i guess the hope is that the mills will last long enough to replace their own costs a few times. but in any case, i think the biggest solution is to run the infrastructure on alternative fuel, the factories, the shipping. consumer products themselves are really a very small impact. but their manufacture... that's big.

Re: Hillary Clinton
Arnold is in politics, but he's no politician.
If Arnold's well meaning, isn't enough to make him president, then what is? A good liar?
i guess being a pervert doesn't matter as long as he supports the right people.

Re: Hillary Clinton
the main reason i don't like her is because she was behind a huge censorship movement. the "parental guidelines" she promoted have resulted in limited availability of speech outlets.
if parents aren't smart enough to know that sitting on your ass in front of the television isn't exercise, then there's nothing her research can do to help. further, if people don't know that flashing lights and amplified baby talk aren't good for infants, then they just have no common sense.
i'm concerned about her history and i'm concerned about a future with her.
