Pumps' Perplexities

Today is Al Gore's Live Earth Day......Concerts will be held on
all 7 continents but I doubt there will be much of a crowd in
Antarctica.......

All these concerts are to make the world aware of Global
Warming and what people of the world can do to "save the
planet"......(If you believe in GW in the first place.).....

Well the website carbonfootprint.com has come up with the
following figures regarding today's effort to save the world....
#1 The superstars will fly some 222,265 miles to do "their
thing"....(Burning a little bit of aviation fuel, I see).....
#2 The "carbon footprint" left behind by artists, spectators
and TV watchers will be some 74,500 tons of greenhouse gas......
#3 In England alone 65,000 spectators will produce some
59 tons of garbage, only a third of which will be able to be
recycled.....
#4 Any monies paid to the reduction of the "carbon footprint"
will be given to a company which will plant trees in
Mozambique........

Thus my conclusion is - that if you want to save the planet
then stay home.......When I find out how much money
Al Gore made, on the concerts today, I will post it on this
blog........Pumps
