CNN Promulgates ‘Tax The Internet For CO2 Emissions’ Propaganda
CNN implies that using the Internet generates miniscule CO2 emissions and that businesses will need to buy “renewable energy certificates” to compensate for it. More suckling at the trough of the global warming scam by the con artists waiting to fleece you of whatever money you have left.
Greening the Internet: How much CO2 does this article produce?
Lara Farrar
CNN
Sunday, July 12, 2009
Twenty milligrams; that’s the average amount of carbon emissions generated from the time it took you to read the first two words of this article.
Now, depending on how quickly you read, around 80, perhaps even 100 milligrams of C02 have been released. And in the several minutes it will take you to get to the end of this story, the number of milligrams of greenhouse gas emitted could be several thousand, if not more.
This may not seem like a lot: “But in aggregate, if you consider all the people visiting a web site and then all the seconds that each of them spends on it, it turns out to be a large number,” says Dr. Alexander Wissner-Gross, an Environmental Fellow at Harvard University who studies the environmental impact of computing.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
Wissner-Gross estimates every second someone spends browsing a simple web site generates roughly 20 milligrams of C02. Whether downloading a song, sending an email or streaming a video, almost every single activity that takes place in the virtual environment has an impact on the real one.
As millions more go online each year some researchers say the need to create a green Internet ecosystem is not only imperative but also urgent.

A number of other companies are also working to take the various pieces that comprise the infrastructure of the internet in a more sustainable direction. Wissner-Gross of Harvard has a company called C02Stats that enables businesses to monitor and manage the environmental impact of their web sites and then purchase renewable energy certificates based on their sites’ monthly carbon footprint.

And we used to make jokes about how they would try to tax CO2 from our breathing.
Its almost just as ridiculous to tax internet traffic, isnt it?
BTW, I seriously doubt any of these numbers (on CO2 emited by sites) are even remotely true.

There will be a national protest March on DC! The event is FREE! If you live on the east coast, how simple it would be to attend this event! Show your Government how sick and tired we are of being DECEIVED! Show them we aren’t going to take it anymore!
Please pass this event on! It’s FREE and IMPORTANT! 9000 Americans have registered so far. We need human bodies to stand up and represent in mass numbers! Let DC and all the crooks in Washington see nothing but a sea of flesh and a sea of pissed off Americans!

Boycott CNN to save the earth! CNN should voluntarily close down all operations! Think of the savings in CO2 emmissions not to mention the fact that there would be immensely less methane! Outside of Faux News CNN is probably the greatest emmitter of methane.

I will be the first volunteer to make the sacrifice to lower planet population because I am domestic terrorist scum and the enemy of truth. It is lying faggots like me that destroy the nation through ignorance and deception. I am the enemy of freedom. I help the terrorists by speading lies and helping to tear down freedom. The troops are there for the money and don’t give a fart about freedom. All they do is help spread the tyranny by murdering innocent civilians and someday they will come for me because I am exceess baggage for the dictatorship. My big mouth will not save me. There is no place in the NWO for me. In fact, I am not a soldier at all, I’m just a big mouth spewing turds of deception and that is because I am so brainwashed and stupid, that is all I know how to do. I am a coward and the awful truth scares the hell out of me so I cover up my fear with lies. I am a bootlicker and I have no place in a land of freedom. I belong in North Korea. Maybe after I lost my freedom to tell lies I might realize that maybe freedom was worth fighting for after all.

The carbon tax is great because now EVERYTHING can be slapped with an arbitrary tax of ANY amount to fund the fascist government takeover and the unsueing repression.

How much CO2 is emitted when browsing the porn sites? Can I get a government grant to do the research? I thought of it FIRST! Too bad.

If they do not do this now it will not work. They know the peak of the sun cycle is over… and after a decade when we move back toward the cooling trend they can say : “see, cap’n trade worked!”

Always the same answer at the end isn’t it? Taxes and more taxes.

Get ready for the “Linux causes global warming because it recycles old, obsolete computers” propaganda. The ecozionazis are all for recycling…except when recycling doesn’t fit their agenda.

As soon as you undesirables are are tucked away in your boxes. We ultra rich gays will have peace around here and no more internet spreading lies about us ultra rich trying to kill you. Now you will pay taxes and fees for the use of the internet until you are gone.

hard to believe how pathetic and dumbed down Americans are becoming
my next door neighbor still worships G W Bush and simply loves Bill O’Reilly
they got me on 9-11 but never ever again…
America must must must shut off the TV
once you learn the truth the TV news and the accompanying commercials and programs and propaganda are impossible to watch anyway
the news is a 24-7 never ending cartoon..

The Rockerfeller/Rothchild globalists and their ilk are controlling the groups and media promoting this scam. They want their one world government and will stop at nothing to get it.
The oil and energy cartels under Rockerfeller/Rothchild control want to keep their hegemony over the people of the world. They hide and sequester technology that could create pollution-free energy (which is also “free” energy) and make each household energy independent.
I’m not talking about solar or wind energy here. What I’m talking about are devices no bigger than a small refrigerator that generate endless amounts of power from the zero-point energy field that permeates all of space and require no fuel. The people and groups trying to come out with this technology have either been bought off, harassed, jailed or even killed. Google “T. Henry Moray” for just one example:

wow. when the feds thought of this CO2 and green revolution stuff they really hit the jackpot. Instead of framing it as more people walking or biking to work and moving in together in poverty, it’s a green revolution, instead of depopulation and eugenics, it’s a green revolution, instead of insane taxation of everything , it’s a green revolution.

people masturbating while on the internet is the new leading cause of CO2 emissions. Your computer actually becomes aroused at the sight of you sexually assaulting yourself and the computers quadramatic hyperdrive gets agitated and releases massive C02 levels effectively sealing our fate?

great ideas. I always follow your ideas and apply them.
Just one question though. Have you made writing this blog as your profession or do you do this in your spare time?
Just curious..
