I've been saying that for decades. Decided not to have kids at 13. Still live very lightly on earth, for the benefit of others.

Solar panels have a small ROI, after all the tax gimmicks are taken into account, and the manufacturing is in China (of course), but I suppose the installers get paid for the work.Wind turbines are so profitable that Duke Energy could even outbid the oil industry for the votes souls of Texas and Oklahoma regulators. They have thousands of megawatts installed, and hundreds more coming on line every year. (Sen. Inhofe's doublethink brain circuits must be in overdrive.)

I'm part of the liberal scientist conspiracy. *glances sideways* Shhh...it's a sekrit. Anyhoo, what we're doing to ensure all that ice melts so our lie becomes FACT is to get all the other libruls who have despaired from the policies of the right and are full blown alcoholics. We're all going to summer down there and drink tons of alcoholic beverages which will be cooled with, you guessed it, glaciar ice. We're going to try a tie in and get the Himalayan salt hippies and the Ice straight from a glacier hipsters to help subsidize our efforts. Soros has already let us know he has to steal more conservative monies before he can help out, he wasted his stash paying everyone to buy Beyonce's music to help assault the police. I'll be posting my gofundme for this shortly ....
