(Do click the links - there is much to be understood)
Since 1998 we have been in a cooling trend and the last 100 years have varied by .9' C ....hardly something to be concerned about. Our planet is sustainable and built to last to the end - nothing we do or don't do is going to effect it all that much.
Besides America is the most active about this ... yet we are seen is as the big ugly. Third worlds and even more modern countries, are the scourge that ought to be greened up a bit. That said...how about stewardship and correct usage of the resources we have. Not only that, but would all the enviro-wackos please quit shoving green down my throat? Even if there is a 'warming' of .9'C since 1880, is it worth the hype and losing your control on 'luxuries' you want? Did you know that those that suffer from asthma will have to settle for a lesser quality inhaler due to 'CFCs' and the 1987 treaty to protect the ozone. What about the Green Bible... Seriously, this is going too far!
...unfortunately, I feel that this will continue under King Hussein. Not only that, but the UN and China are pushing for industrialized countries to clean up the third world countries!
Really! I am ok with reusable bags....sort of, even, the Green Bible (ugh) ...I guess...if for nothing else than it proves capitalism is awesome. But forcing me to use light bulbs that are actually a mercury hazard if broken? Telling me what to drive or not (Toyota Prius is not all that - read the last paragraph especially, if nothing else)? That is not capitalism! Seriously, this is going too far. Further, where does it stop? Will I be told how many times to flush in a day?
Pass the trees around (cyberly speaking), plant a real tree, recycle a can, refill a water bottle, spend hard earned money on a green bag... whatever, but don't force the wacko stuff on everyone. And, don't reply with tons of BS - it's just more carbon (pun intended)....
I just want everyone to know that there is reality out there too. Now, I'm going to walk my dog...let her 'pee' on a tree. Oh, 'chill'- it's fertilizer....good grief...
And, to think green is my favorite color...hmmm....
UPDATE: We learned of a petetion against the new inhalers - please go and petition against them: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/saveCFCinhalers/ or petition against new inhalers.

Thousands of patients KNOW that HFA inhalers are not as safe and effective as CFC inhalers. While most patients may be able to handle HFA inhalers (or MDIs), many can’t tolerate them, and are finding them terribly ineffective. Even MDs, PhDs, RNs etc., are seeing the differences.
I cannot tolerate the HFA inhaler and it actually made my asthma worse. I fear that others who have been switched to HFA propelled inhalers are having increased asthma symptoms, and may not even realize that it may be because of the re-formulated inhaler.
I want to help spread the word that many people are finding these new inhalers seriously inferior. There is a petition that I’d like to make asthma patients and those who care about them, or care for them, aware of. If you could help by spreading the word in your asthma community, that would be wonderful.
To get the FACTS and help us FIGHT to save CFC MDIs:
Go here: www.savecfcinhalers.org
Or here: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/saveCFCinhalers/
Or just Google: ‘save cfc’

Thank you for taking the time to hunt us down and then post a very heart-felt and solid post. I have signed the petition and requested several friends/family to do the same. "Being green for green's sake is wrong - especially when it hinders human life or the quality thereof."
Thank you for leading our readers to the petition.
