She is organizing a May Day protest where all her followers duct tape their mouth and nose for a full hour. That will save a lot of CO2. Even more than they realize. They should also protest disposable consumerism by putting plastic bags over their heads Is it wrong if I offer assistance?
Buffalo_Gal Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 There are some true believers out there! And, there is always a Buffalo connection. Will Buffalo Become a Climate Change Haven? The Western New York city possesses a distinct mix of weather, geography, and infrastructure that could make it a potential climate haven. But for whom? </snip> Rising temperatures have yet to produce more heat waves or extreme rainfall in Western New York. Experts say the region’s cool climate and ample fresh water could make it an attractive destination as the planet heats up. </snip>

Buffalo_Gal Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 I was not sure where to put this. It could have easily gone into the re-election thread because if he brings back full-flush toilets and regular flow shower heads, he could have a 48 state landslide. President Trump talks about bring back old bulbs (and keeping the new bulbs), looking at sinks and showers lack of pressure, the stupidity of low-flow toilets and opening up the standard (in non desert areas). He's talking about having both. Video here. President Trump holds a small business roundtable at the White House and speaks on regulations on small businesses, bringing back a cheaper light bulb and improving water pressure and conservation in the U.S. "New bulbs doesn't make you look as good, being a vain person, that is very important to me. Gives you an orange look. Has anyone noticed that?" ? 4

I'm just wondering if @Tiberius is part of the solution that he's says the Republicans are not.

HAHA Gator wantonly wastes electricity because he is too cheap to purchase a snow blower powerful enough to clear his Fischer-Price play driveway in one shot.

Pretty simple really. yep, i have a net zero system myself. on a yearly basis, it provides all of my household electrical needs. unlike you however, i am only 4 years into the system that is expected to last 25 years minimum. with all of the rebates and incentives i was able to garner for the system and install, in two more years i will have recouped my out of pocket expenses, 100%. after that is when the payoff really kicks in. especially when you consider that it is forecast that energy prices are expected to rise 50% by the end of the next decade.
