Plants Cause Global Warming — Salad Eaters to Be Imprisioned for Life!

Well — it could happen. Check out this AM’s story from Rueters.

German scientists have discovered a new source of methane, a greenhouse gas that is second only to carbon dioxide in its impact on climate change.

The culprits are plants.

They produce about 10 to 30 percent of the annual methane found in the atmosphere, according to researchers at the Max-Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany.

“10 to 30 percent” of one of the two greenhouse gases that the nutters want us all to pay through the nose to reduce could be eliminated simply by killing all the plants. Hey, gimme that 55 gallon drum of RoundupĀ® and I’ll get started on it! (db)

  1. The environmental whackos flatter mankind with their dubious postulations that our manufacturing and other industrial processes have led to global warming. The Earth and it’s ecosystem is much more durable and orders of magnitude more powerful than anything we puny humans have ever managed to even dream of. The planet is self-healing, can and does adjust whatever stresses are placed upon it’s systems. For example, volcanic activity releases large amounts of carbon dioxide along with massive quantities of some really nasty chemicals, including CFCs and sulfurous compounds. It is my opinion that volcanic and other natural processes release far more of the so-called greenhouse gases than does humankind. As you pointed out, carbon dioxide is a necessary part of the sybiotic relationship between plants and animals, this oxygen releasing process being essential to the survival of our and many other species. Methane is merely NATURAL gas, prized, and found in abundant quantities here in Oklahoma and elsewhere. Methane frequently…and naturally… finds it’s way into the atmosphere.

    He who designed the planet, indeed, the universe, designed it well. It is an awesome wonder of beauty, order and balance. Earth maintains this balance in spite of our best efforts to damage it. Compare our most powerful nuclear blast to the power of the sun, or even a hurricane or tsunami. We are not in charge here.

    I have to laugh at other scientists and their B.S. (Bad Science) who think they know more than the creator of the Earth. They embarrass me though. I may have to return my chemistry degree.
