    That's my point.
    My understanding and it may be wrong - but i believe the meat and diary industry to be responsible for the highest carbon dioxide output

    I've heard that, but have never seen anything to support it.

    Googling it seems to produce mixed results depending on the search parameters.

    But you have a pie chart. You win!

    Coal plants are the nation’s top source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, the primary cause of global warming. In 2011, utility coal plants in the United States emitted a total of 1.7 billion tons of CO21. A typical coal plant generates 3.5 million tons of CO2 per year2.

    Burning coal is also a leading cause of smog, acid rain, and toxic air pollution. Some emissions can be significantly reduced with readily available pollution controls, but most U.S. coal plants have not installed these technologies.

    That's my point.

    Not if your home is solar powered.

    Buy an electric car and solar power your home.

    I would have never thought that Denbronx was a energy-lefty.

    I've looked into it. It's handy for apocalyptic concerns as well. I just didn't have $35k, or I'd have one.

    Lol I live in Cali son and alot of my friends are in the Silicon valley. You can be a righty and still think objectively and about the future of our planet. Besides I think I'm more middle ground except marriage and abortion issues, I'm still traditional there. Eat the meat and spit out the fat..

    I'm in love with the Teslas but I don't have 160k to drop on a new one either. Remember when the 120hz TVs first came out and how expensive they were, now they are cheap as ****. Give it time and these car companies and gas companies will start competing. Tesla is already coming out with a 35k model next year.

    My train goes right by where they test them in San Jose. Pretty awesome to watch them race on the track and do burn outs. It's a very fast car for electric.

    Never let anyone tell you that it's not okay to make fun of Prius drivers, though. Just remember that.
