Anonymous8While this topic is somewhat political it has nothing to do with Men Going Their Own Way so I’ve put it in the Litter Box.

America’s beloved dogs and cats play a significant role in causing global warming, according to a new study by UCLA.
Pet ownership in the United States creates about 64 million tons of carbon dioxide a year, UCLA researchers found. That’s the equivalent of driving 13.6 million cars for a year. The problem lies with the meat-filled diets of kitties and pooches, according to the study by UCLA geography professor Gregory Okin.
Dogs and cats are responsible for 25 to 30 percent of the impacts of meat production in the United States, said Orkin.
And what goes in, must come out. In terms of waste, Okin noted, feeding pets also leads to about 5.1 million tons of feces every year, roughly equivalent to the total trash production of Massachusetts.
The U.S. has the largest population of pet dogs and cats globally, with an estimated 77.8 million dogs and 85.6 million cats in 2015.
Simple measures like feeding domestic dogs and cats nutritionally appropriate amounts will certainly reduce their environmental and energetic impact, Okin wrote.In the left corner we have the Treehuggers and Greenpeace.
In the right corner we have the Cat ladies and PETA.
With any luck they’ll bring out the CATapults and TREEbuchets and we’ll get a real show.
I have long maintained that the left’s bullying tactics would drive their opponents underground and they would proceed to turn on eachother, due to a lack of available targets. This is an example of that beginning to happen, environmentalists will clash with animal rights activists and undermine one another’s attempts to accomplish their goals.
The hubris of the environmentalists is staggering, it’s one thing to think that humans are responsible for global warming/climate change or whatever they’re calling it lately, but the sheer hubris to think that we can also be the solution is laughable.
An environmentalist once told me that human’s would ruin the planet, I corrected them by pointing out that we would, at worst, render it uninhabitable for humans. The Earth is incredibly resilient and will likely survive longer than humanity. I told that tree hugging coward that his geocidal fantasies were hopeless and he would have to buckle down and work way harder if he really wanted to destroy the Earth. When I presented him with the following text, he was triggered, deep down he knew he didn’t have the b~~~~ to stare into the abyss.
How to destroy the Earth
https://qntm.org/destroyMethod 10: Hurled into the Sun
You will need: Earthmoving equipment.
Method: Hurl the Earth into the Sun, where it will be rapidly melted and then vaporized by the Sun’s heat.
Sending Earth on a collision course with the Sun is not as easy as one might think. Contrary to popular opinion, Earth’s orbit is not “unstable” and Earth will not begin to spiral into the Sun if we give it the slightest of nudges (otherwise, you can bet it would have happened already). It’s surprisingly easy to end up with Earth in a loopy elliptical orbit which merely roasts it for four months in every eight. Careful planning will be needed to avoid this.
There is at least one way of moving the Sun itself. Although the Sun is much bigger, and the Earth would be carried along by its gravity, it might be possible accelerate the Sun hard enough that it eventually catches the orbiting Earth, with the same net result.
Earth’s final resting place: a small globule of vaporized iron sinking slowly into the heart of the Sun.
Comments: As far as energy changes are concerned, this method is inferior to the next one.
This method is essentially a variation on the Solar Oven method listed above, wherein you bring the Sun to the Earth (in a manner of speaking).Feasibility rating: 9/10. Impossible at our current technological level, but will be possible one day, I’m certain. In the meantime, may happen by freak accident if something comes out of nowhere and randomly knocks Earth in precisely the right direction.

Now I’m not condoning destroying the Earth, I’m just pointing out that it’s not work for amateurs, it takes professionals.
Ohhh delicious murder.
By the way, I’m thinking about encouraging people to have more kids, and spend more, and eat more s~~~ty good, I have to contribute.
Since ww3 is not coming I have to do what possible so this planet die a slow death.
Hope i can see SHTF before I die.
To those following me, be careful, I just farted. Men those beans are killers.
Anonymous42This makes me want to take a s~~~ in the brook, squatting on a fresh fallen tree! A rare and endangered species of tree no less, then pour a quart of motoroil over the turd to concatenate the whole thing in all my manly glory!
Tree huggers are the ones endangered here! If a treehugger wants to fall off his stumps at the knees, I’m more than willing to do two for a nickle! I like the ones that climb the trees in protest, way less messy and they don’t come out alive!
Those fern fondlers also create global warming, so what is their f~~~ing point? Oh, they create less global warming which gives them their moral superiority. However, they would be the first to bitch when the coal-powered electricity fails and they could no longer charge their plastic and heavy metal smartphones.
F~~~ ’em. If they really wanted to commune with nature they would go compost themselves.

Anonymous12Notice how it’s almost always White women protesting for these causes? Distract them enough so they don’t realize they are soon to be harem girls.
Anonymous8The Treehuggers are so ineffectual that the images I picked out for them wouldn’t even load properly, what a bunch of good for nothings.
Makes me want a steak, for some reason. I’ll be sure give my animals a little extra food at suppertime, too.
