The war on climate change is taking on a new direction and there are now calls to the government to monitor and limit the amount of meat we may consume. The study was done by some university students in the UK and wants to put a maximum amount of 1/4 pound of meat per week, per person. Other products are included as well such as booze, and sweets. The whole article can be seen here.

The UN has also put forth their conclusion that we should all just ban meat outright and become vegetarians, this to avoid a global catastrophe. That article can be seen here. 

Now, this writer does admit there are signs of climate change, just this morning I noticed that it was cooler than it was a month ago. But wait, haven’t they been warning us about global “warming”? According to statistics Canada the earth has warmed in the last 30 years, but as a result of last years winter (which saw record temps world wide), the Earth’s average temperature is at the same level as it was in the late 1940’s. So who to believe?

You may recall a certain beetle from British Columbia. This little critter was multiplying out of control and devastating large sections of the BC forests. What was mentioned briefly but then not again was that the CO2 these beetles were releasing was more than all the humans on the planet could manage in the next 10 years, just because of how many of them their were. If that is the case, what about all the other animals? Are we to slaughter thousands (or millions) of species to manage carbon emissions or CO2? Smiling to myself, I must be fair. Carbon emissions and CO2 is the SAME thing. When you breath out, that’s CO2. It is also what plants, and TREES need for FOOD. When you open a beer, or pop, CO2. When you eat too many beans and pass gas, CO2, in part.

But CO2 is odorless.It is also colorless, you cant see it, or smell it. But its there, and of that there is not doubt. Depending on who you listen to, what you believe, all the figures can be applied in some way to fit your desire, so we may never know the real truth. In fact, the next result may be a restriction on sex for us, as all that heavy panting may be releasing too much CO2 and destroying the planet.Speaking of sex, we may very well not care about CO2 and be doing what ever we can to keep warm.

After reading this next article, it makes you wonder what we should really be concerned about.

Sean McAllister lives near Ottawa, Canada, married and with 5 children just trying to find his way and discover the truth. As a parent has a very deep concern on what kind of planet our children will be inheriting. It’s up to us now, before it is too late.
