Long story short, I was talking to my friend about auto-racing and this girl in class butts in to give us her shtick about the "stupid waste of fuel", how it "contributes to global warming" and how by watching and supporting the sport we were affecting future generations and so on. After a few exchanges we were judged to be "immoral" as well as "retarded" for enjoying racing! Well, I just found a way to shut these people up, who also regularly harass SUV owners: http://www.sonomanews.com/articles/2005/04/08/news/police_-_sheriff_reports/records01.txt Point out to them what immense hypocrites they are by quoting some of the following: "...livestock are responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, a bigger share than that of transport." Livestock's Long Shadow The study Diet, Energy, and Global Warming also labels meat consumption as the single most destructive action one can do to the environment. "Livestock account for 15% to 20% of (overall) global methane emissions.î (Worldwatch Institute) (Durning, Alan, and Brough, Holly, "Taking Stock: animal Farming and the Environment," Worldwatch Paper 103, July 1991) "...a kilogram of grain-fed beef raised in Japan is responsible for more greenhouse gas emissions and other pollution than driving for 3 hours while leaving all the lights on back home." http://www.ehponline.org/docs/2008/11034/abstract.html It doesn't matter which way the environmentalist cuts it, they are still massive hypocrites. If they don't shut up do us all a favor and slap them across the face.

Although cows do emit a lot of gas lol Polluting with cars is not going to help.

Well, at least we actually try to reverse the damage that people have inflicted on the Earth. Sure, livestock may contribute gases into the atmosphere but it's not like we can just fix that problem easily....what would YOU want to do, kill all the livestock in the world? I bet your not a vegetarian. The amount of pollution that is given out by cars is something that we actually can REDUCE.

Come back in 50 years and tell me if you still think going "green" is unnecessary.
