CO2 Emissions Down; Environmentalist Unemployment Up

(cross-posted from IMAO)

Sad news for the global warming crowd, as US emissions of CO2 have actually dropped 1.3% in 2006, despite having an economy that grew 3.3% during the same year.

Which, I guess, means that Bush has saved the planet.

But what other effects will this have? I predict thusly:

---

* President Bush scraps plans for emergency Presidential escape rocket to Mars

* Environmentalists stop talking about "climate change" and start talking about "fries with that".

* Dole company abandons Alaskan pineapple plantation complex.

* Al Gore wept.

* Skyrocketing sales of "I Told You So" T-shirts to climate change deniers.

* "Kyoto" once again only notable for being an anagram of "Tokyo".

* Powerful computers used to model world climate switched to BitTorrenting pirated MP3's.

* South American rainforest ecosystems collapse as trees succumb to oxygen poisoning.

* New York Times headline: "Bush Fails to Prevent Global Temperature Stagnation Crisis".

* Sheryl Crow back to twirling Charmin around her hand like spaghetti on a fork.

As for me, it's all about the running over hippies with my SUV.

Some things never change.
