Can't wait for the new agency that determines how much carbon is in each pair of Old Navy socks, etc.

The Climate is never going to stop "changing" - one way or the other - no matter what people do on earth.

What a waste this all is.

Give this "movement" enough time, and we'll be a (legitimate) cause of some ecological disaster in the attempt to fight "climate change".
