Why Contrails Suck
December 19, 2009 131 CommentsOk watch the video for all the science about how crappy airplanes are for the environment with all their spewed jet fuel and all. That is the point of this little political video. But not of this rant. This rant is about how I’m kind of ok with airline prices skyrocketing, and having to pay for baggage, and no more free earphones, and having to buy food in-flight. I’m kind of ok with all the social, cultural, and economic changes we as a country are facing as we plummet into a bona fide recession/depression. People need to stop flying around so much. Isn’t that the whole point of the digital age, all you business-travelers? Why must you burn up so much fuel to meet face-to-face, when you can video conference? No need to fly so much, Mr. Suit-and-Tie, other than you just want to get away from the Missus for a night. Repeat: we need to stop flying so much. Traveling occasionally to explore different parts of the world is important and everyone should be so lucky to be able to do that a few times while they’re here, but people do NOT need to fly as much as we do. It’s a horrid waste of resources, and I’m kind of feeling like the high cost of tickets might not be such a bad side-effect to this lovely depression we’re heading into. I’m kind of feeling like this depression thing might not be such a bad thing in general for our culture. It might give rise to a better counterculture. Oddly, it seems like our economic crises might lead to some much-needed political reform. Difficult, yes. Needed? Maybe. May. Be.
[..YouTube..] The problem with having scientific discussions is that there is just way too much bad science out there. Years ago everyone thought the world was flat, because if you thought otherwise, you’re not a scientist and your science isn’t science. Show some real numbers. Plus… If and when the atmosphere gets warmer, it expands, therefore thins it out every so slightly. It’s a very common fact to everyone, but the so call “scientists” seems to ignore that.

[..YouTube..] Global warming is a natural process that goes up and down over millions of years. Earth has just emerged from an ice age, of course the Earth is going to warm up. In another hundred thousand years we will be in another one. Climate change is not CAUSED by human activity.

[..YouTube..] Fuck it. Global warming is a hoax. And if it isn’t, I don’t fucking care if my grandchildren never get to see polar bears. I never got to see a velociraptor and you don’t see me complaining.
