We should outlaw travelling by car (or truck). The exhaust is polluting. Therefore people who drive must be "ignorant".

Like maybe move into a neighborhood where everybody has propane tanks for heat and fireplaces?

Wait.. We can't do that!?! If one of my neighbors tanks blew up (which does happen) it would definately impact my way of life and my family.. I'd hate to be blown to smithereens..

So what the hell- let's ban those too! Besides, people with those propane tanks are just ignorant and don't understand..

She could always move to NY city. Very few people use wood burners there. It's pollution free!

And because of it your here to tell about it. Great thinking!
I'm surprised your still alive. All that cooking using WOOD (the great toxic infiltrator). proof of that is all our great great ancestors who cooked and heated with wood are deceased.

I note you had a propane fired Coleman on the picnic table. Isn't that a little dangerous? - LOL

Call me a daredevil

Hey- I gotta make the coffee first thing.. (Oh snap- is caffeine bad for us too? Oh well- might as well ban that stuff too. Sorry about your luck, Starbucks)

Edit- and we took our bluetick hound with us on that trip and I failed to wash the toxic particulate matter off her coat.. Somebody call the SPCA on me!!!

I have a sure fire solution for kibblesandbits. She could move to one of two places: The western most point in Hawaii or the eastern most point of the Sahara Desert.No smoke polution in either place.

Well theres the 'vog' issue in Hawaii- the atmospheric condition when volcanic eruptions spew sulpher and all kinds of really nasty toxins in the air and drifts over Hawaii, and of course in the Sahara there are relentless dust storms that could choke all living life not aclimated to those extreme conditions..

I'm thinking a plastic bubble, frankly.

LOL - I was thinking the same! - The bubble that is.
In a way I kinda feel sorry for her. With the sensitivities she, here husband and kids have it will be very difficult for her to find a comfortable place to live and her hypochodria (if that's a proper term) enforces those sensitivities.

Is the moon polution free?
