I'd bet money you said, "Screw the environment, I'm not sharing a computer at the library, I'm having my own produced regardless of the environmental toll."
How much CO2 do you think my computer contributes?....Bear in mind that my power source is over 90% green.

Thank you for the illustration as to how you can't comprehend that one family using over eight jets and all sorts of othe transports to get to Hawaii would be an issue. What do you believe causes climate change, a lack of taxation?

How much CO2 do you think it would take to produce and then power 7 billion computers? Or maybe you think only westerners should have them.

Once again, your climate science has you believing taxation causes the climate problems.

Vice Presidents are pretty harmless for the most part.
He's entitled to those beliefs then he's entitled to your ridicule. And he's not going to be your typical hands-off VP, look who's gonna be President.

Your apparent belief of climate change, emissions and the mass production of consumer goods have nothing to do with climate change.

No, I know your history on this issue.

Obama could keep 50 jets running their engines 24/7 and you wouldn't say it's a problem.

You won't consider making any sacrifices yourself by forgoing your conveniences. We have gone through this many times. It's always, "That's too insignificant to matter." Its like you can't seem to grasp that when millions and millions of people are doing the same, it adds up. I guess denial allows you to overlook what you and your idols do.

Oh liberals believe in evolutions huh? No biological differences between races and the sexes, just magically as if environmental pressures only apply to every other life form on earth, but not humans.

Believe it or not, in the dozens upon dozens of climate change threads, you are the very first person to ever answer that way.

Next question, do you support reducing immigration to help reduce pollution and climate change?
