Americans dramatically reduce gasoline consumption.

CNN) -- At a time when gas prices are at an all-time high, Americans have
curtailed their driving at a historic rate.
Americans are not driving as much as they did a year ago as gas prices
skyrocket.

The Department of Transportation said figures from March show the steepest
decrease in driving ever recorded.
Compared with March a year earlier, Americans drove an estimated 4.3 percent
less -- that's 11 billion fewer miles, the DOT's Federal Highway
Administration said Monday, calling it "the sharpest yearly drop for any
month in FHWA history." Records have been kept since 1942.

According to AAA, for the first time since 2002, Americans said they were
planning to drive less over the Memorial Day weekend than they did the year
before.

Tracy and Adam Crews posted on iReport that their annual Memorial Day
weekend has traditionally involved camping and fishing.

"Well, due to the continual rise in gas, we felt our only recourse was to
nix the idea this year and stay home" in Jacksonville, Florida, they wrote.

US Remains Environmentally Number One
Alan Caruba

April 10, 2008

http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/2602

As we approach the birthday of Vladimir Lenin, founder of the Soviet
Union.oops, I meant Earth Day.it's so easy to confuse the two because
they occur, quite by coincidence I'm sure, on the same day.

Anyway April 22 will bring forth an avalanche of the usual accusations
that America is a sinkhole of pollution, et cetera.

We are all supposed to feel guilty or angry or both for living in a
nation that we are told is the largest "consumer" of, well, everything
and, at the same time, a terrible steward of the land and such.

There are two things that environmentalists hate, one is consumption and
the other is the human beings doing it.

The only problem with these accusations is that they are, like virtually
everything environmentalists tell us, wrong.

The Pacific Research Institute (PRI) and the American Enterprise
Institute (AEI) just released the "2008 Index of Leading Environmental
Indicators", an annual report highlighting the significant environmental
developments and milestones in the United States and worldwide.

As Steven F. Howard, a co-author of the Index and a PRI senior fellow,
is pleased to note, "The U.S. remains the world's environmental leader
and will likely be so in the future."

For example, between 1997 and 2004, the last year in which comparative
data are available, emissions from Kyoto Protocol participants increased
21.1 percent.

The U.S. refused to sign this United Nations inspired idiocy, but its
emissions increased only 6.6 percent during the same time period,
considerably less than the participants.

The Protocol is based on the lie that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are
causing the Earth to warm, but the Earth is actually beginning to cool
and CO2 constitutes a minuscule 0.038 percent of the Earth's atmosphere.

The odds are that the United States is the only industrialized nation in
which a decrease occurred in 2006. Europe, which is always wailing away
about greenhouse gases (GHG) and is making progress toward eliminating
anything that generates electricity other than the occasional lightning
strike, has never been able to meet the Protocol's limits.

As the Index points out, the United States last emitted CO2 at this
level in 1910 when the population was only 92 million. All of which
suggests that we are doing one hell of a better job at limiting GHG
emissions than say, China or India. Oh, wait! They aren't even Kyoto
Protocol signatories. In fact, the Protocol exempts them. Which raises
the question, if two of the world's largest and fastest growing
industrializing nations don't have to limit GHG emissions, what's the
point of having a Protocol in the first place?

These days, crazed environmentals are calling for an 80 percent
reduction of GHG by 2050. What they don't tell you is that the only
nations with emissions levels that low are appallingly poor. Don't like
GHG emissions? Move to Haiti or Somalia.

So, come Earth Day, if you are a dedicated environmentalist, don't
forget to get out there and wave your red flag with the Hammer and
Sickle on it. I keep forgetting. I mean the green flag. Tell people that
you are trying to save the Earth from horrible consumers of stuff like,
ah, food.

Warmest Regards

the last 100 years."

Wow- a 'mind' concept.

Apparently, Steve can't grasp that he may have a different concept of
"practically infinite" than others.

The misinformation on the size of the earth tells much.
A 100 mile trek on a planet just under 25,000 miles around is miniscule.
In a straight line, you might be able to locate it on a large globe of the
earth.
My cycling days are probably over, but I made many such trips. They do
nothing to give an impression of the size of the earth.

I'd venture that bicycle trip wobbled some, and continues to do so.

On a further trip, the earth disappears in size when viewed from a vantage
needed to see the solar system.
That view vanishes already, viewed from the nearest star.
Galaxies and galaxy clusters also take us into realms of distance and
numbers that are tough to comprehend.
Astronomical is a term much-used, but little understood. A 'google' is a
good start, but it doesn't approach 'infinite'.
