Happy Earth Day!!

-The earth is approx. 4.8 Billion years old.
-We’re predicting global warming on 160 years of data.
-There is no planetary mother goddess anthropomorphic thing.
-There are more trees in America today than there were 100 years ago.
-If we all drove electric cars, the damage to the ecology caused by the tens of thousands of used batteries each year and the needs of the electrical generating plants used to charge those batteries would, arguably, be deadlier than what out fossil fuel cars are now doing.
-According to the UK Sunday Telegraph in 1998, the World Health Organization completed a multi-year medical study on the effects of passive smoking. It couldn’t find any, except that it was stinky and made stuff yellow. (Cigarette smoke is a gaseous solid. As such, it adheres to the first surface it contacts that has a lower temperature than it does itself.) We’re all still waiting for that study to be released. Fortunately, no one is holding their breaths.
-SUVs should be banned and so should bullet proof vests. We should encourage people to use softer, slower moving bullets instead.
