Global Warming - I'm melting

[HoWheels]

Just think. If 3 billion people stopped farting or exhaling we could save the planet. And then we could stop the livestock from farting. We could stop using coal. We could spend the next 30 years making Nuke plants. But, damn it all to hell, I'm going to drive my car and fly wherever I want.

This pretty much confirms it!

Fett = Al Gore

6000 posts for me.:ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF: And about 4,500 farts. give or take. But, this is serious shit. What if he's right? Go "SHORT" the world.

Hmm... "Fett" actually means fat in Norwegian... Careful what you eat Sir! You're causing major eco-problems!
Congrats on reaching the big 6 btw

Damn, furinners.:ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF: In Gemany, I'm cool. In Norway, I'm fat. This international stuff has me perplexed.:ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF: :ROTF:

The crazy thing is people around here are starting to use the same word for cool too.. Must be the Germans who smuggled it across the border.. They occupied us back in the 40's you know! Trondheim was actually supposed to be the Gestapo headquarters.. No lies!
My great grandfather got sent to a concentration camp. He wasn't jewish but he was an officer and fought for his country. When he got home again (he was lucky he made it alive) he never let a single crumb be left on the table. Food got extra precious to him. I don't wanna know what he experienced over there man..

Now, don't get too serious about this. I said this before. "fett" was what my kid had as a sign-on. He gave it to me. So I took it. There is no "DPM" (Deep Psychological Meaning).

if anyone cares

I actually work for a company that deals with the weather and studies how much we are fucking up the planet. We actually travel around the world doing experiments and wasting money. If anyone cares:

What's ironic is that we may have to suffer to prove they are right. I'm all for all the hellraising.

The one "positive" about global warming is that hundreds of thousands of jobs could be created in new industries that reduce the output of greenhouse gas. If we were to start developing small wind technology, solar, and other enviro-friendly household energy sources, the economy would BOOM. Of course, the corporations who profit off the current system immediately curtail any plans for such development.

It's amazing how much you can cut your consumption (and your monthly bills) by incorporating "green" designs into new or pre-existing home development.

Good movie on the subject--Kilowatt Ours.

Some of that is scare tactics. The thing about having more carbondioxide in the air is that plantlife flourishes on it and will create more oxygen. It's a give and take system for the most part and the world will adjust.

[Guitardude86]

What about the Greenhouse Effect? Should we dismiss that as BS too? If that's the case I'll have to have a chat with the teachers at some of the schools I've went to, because they made a big deal of hammering that into our brains!

Am I missing something? The word Fett in the german language means fat. It´s not cool. Having written this I am sure now that I missed the joke in another thread ... lol

[Guitardude86]

5074, it's the same thing in Norwegian, but for some bizarre reason people have started to use the word to describe things that are cool, or awesome etc. I'm pretty sure they do the same thing in some parts of Germany too, but I don't know that for sure of course.

[Guitardude86]

Imagine if you were talking to someone and the guy would say: "Dude, you're so fat!" Just doesn't make sense to me, I don't even use the word "fett" in norwegian!
