    Greenhouse gases

    I've heard that Volcanoes are the number one producer of greenhouse gases.

    Mowing the lawn is worse then driving

    So take a ride and don't cut the grass.

    Hey can we get the cows to eat it?

    Yeah and guess which Country is gonna be "blamed" for having way too much reliance on meat?
    Remember, all that grain that feeds the cattle can feed more people! That is if they get it off the docks and out to the people who need it... like they are NOT doing now.
    Starvation is a weapon.

    So stop eating meat, y'all.


    Problem solved.



    I think comedian Ron White put it best. When his vegan friend told him that cattle produced all that methane and that it was bad for the environment, then asked Ron what he was doing to help out the environment, Ron replied,








    wait for it

    what about termites?...

    ...I think I read that termites produce more methane than cattle.

    Rest area, rest home -- what difference does it make? I'm sure Grandma enjoyed seeing all those big trucks pulling in and out.
