Here’s the photo wire. Zeitgeist-changing planetary rescue efforts are already over or under way in Australia, Japan, Germany, and the UK. I don’t want to disappoint anyone but I hear Phil Collins’s set is already finished.
As is this guy’s. Reduce your carbon emizzles, my nizzles.
Exit question quotation:
A Daily Mail investigation has revealed that far from saving the planet, the extravaganza will generate a huge fuel bill, acres of garbage, thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions, and a mileage total equal to the movement of an army.
The most conservative assessment of the flights being taken by its superstars is that they are flying an extraordinary 222,623.63 miles between them to get to the various concerts - nearly nine times the circumference of the world. The true environmental cost, as they transport their technicians, dancers and support staff, is likely to be far higher…
She found that a Wembley-sized football match generated an ‘ecological footprint’ of 3,000 global hectares - an area the size of 4,166 football pitches. This is the amount of bioproductive land required to absorb the C02 emissions produced by such an event.
Update: More good news — John Dingell wants a federal carbon tax. But only to prove how unpopular it would be, you see.
Update: Six feet and one inch of pure coursing charisma, baby.
Update: Every story’s got a climate change angle today.
TERROR suspect Kafeel Ahmed asked his family to pray for him hours before he crashed a burning Jeep into Glasgow Airport…
Police in India were yesterday questioning his father Maqboo, mother Zakia, both doctors, and student sister Sadia about the phone calls. In the first message on May 5, according to the Times of India newspaper, Ahmed said: “I am involved in a large-scale confidential project. It is about global warming. I cannot reveal the details.
“The project has to be started in the United Kingdom. Various people from various countries are involved in this. There is an Indian with me and he is helping me out. He has given his car to me for travelling.”
Update: It’s a pro-life gathering!
Update: The fightin’ nutroots have fought, and triumphed, again!
“Some who don’t understand what is now at stake tried to stop this event on the Mall,” the former Democratic presidential candidate said in a thinly veiled hit on members of President George W. Bush’s Republican party.
“But here we are,” he said as an image of a bright Earth shined behind him. “And it wasn’t the cavalry who came to our rescue, it was the American Indian.”
A few hundred spectators turned out for the concert, which began at 10:30 am (1430 GMT).
Update: He’s bursting with love — and carbon credits! Your headline of the day:
Al Gore tried to rein in his adrenaline as the train churned between the two North American venues of his Live Earth concerts Saturday…
“I’m just so filled with enthusiasm and energy, I’m not letting you ask questions,” Gore said in an interview with The Associated Press.
Update: And so this day proves historic after all, my friends. Dork nirvana has been achieved.
Update: Never mind what I said. This is the headline of the day.
Update: The News Buckit has some fun video of Manbearpig sweating right through his shirt. Click the grungy photo to watch.

Hippie: We’re using the power of rock and roll to change the world! Woo!
Stan: Maybe instead of complaining about corporations being selfish, we should look at ourselves. I mean, is there anything more selfish than doing nothing but getting high and listening to music all day long?

In the same interview (paraphrased), he also said “Unless you’re stuck in the middle of a rain forrest, everyone knows about global warming.”
Tennessee Dave on July 7, 2007 at 11:53 AM
Figures…they didn’t include that little bit in the article I read. On the other hand, we all do know about global warming…we just don’t all accept it as proven scientific fact that it’s caused by humans.
flipflop on July 7, 2007 at 11:57 AM
So, what is the best way of leaving my own carbon footprint today in honor of all these turds doing the same? I’m thinking of a bbq. Any other suggestions?
Blake on July 7, 2007 at 11:57 AM
The only thing warming up to dangerous levels is those people’s massive egos.

And of course be sure and buy ALL your carbon credits from algored’s company.

I bought a new truck a year ago and just noticed that I’ve only got 6,500 miles on it. I need to go out and drive it some more and increase my carbon footprint.

PierreLegrand on July 7, 2007 at 12:05 PM
Manbearpig’s video HAS spurred me to action. I’m calling all my friends with V-8 engines and asking them to “go the extra mile” every time they leave home. Take the long way home. Don’t walk to your mailbox - drive there.
If we all would help out, we can help offset the drastic reduction in plant food (that would be CO2) that Mr. Excitement is advocating.
Let our carbon emissions this day join with the carbon emissions of all these stars and concert goers to create the biggest carbon footprint evah!

I’m with you kj, I just turned the AC down to 62, switched on all the lights, kicked on every stereo in the house ( but turned the volume down), goin to leave the car idling inthe driveway all day and rather than use the gas grill I think it’s time to get a charcoal burning one for backup.
bbz123 on July 7, 2007 at 12:11 PM
How about a little comparison of power usage?
Just got my electrical bill for June:
$200.
That’s for 8 people in one house, with central air. But thanks to the mild spring temperatures, we shut off the furnace early and didn’t have to use much central air. That covers also, refrig, stove, oven, dishwasher, lights. So, that’s $25 per person for an entire month.
Al Gore lives in three times the space we do, with fewer people. His electrical bill runs over $2,000. a month.
Seems old Al Gore should be buying carbon offsets from people like me instead of him demanding we all buy from him.
naliaka on July 7, 2007 at 12:11 PM
Hypocrisy, thy name is Liberal.
Hening on July 7, 2007 at 12:13 PM
I’d like to know if the organizers of this pollution-fest will issue a report on the money they made and its later distribution of ‘benefits’. You can bet the (organic) farm that if there were to be a Christian-run event of this size, the MSM would scrutinize the end-point of every single penny.
How much did the performers take in, including the value of free media exposure? What are the organizers getting, both in actual dollar figures and as a percentage of receipts? What loopholes will/did they use to avoid paying taxes on any of that income?
Will the MSM follow up on which green companies and/or organizations received funds from this event, and what did they do with those monies? Does Gore himself own any stock in any of those companies, or receive ‘consultation fees’?
Far as I’m concerned, this is just another money-making scheme perpetrated by rich leftists to increase their bank accounts, while trying to make the rest of us poorer on countless levels.
Liam on July 7, 2007 at 12:15 PM
Looks that way to me. The film has been stretched so much to make him look thinner that his lower lip looks like it’s hanging unnaturally.
Here’s what he is asking people to pledge:
Whew! That’s a lot of activism! Good luck, G’Orc, getting “millions of people from every part of the world to sign up” for all that work.

One of the Live Earth parties near me is actually having a barbecue… go figure.
GoodBoy on July 7, 2007 at 12:21 PM
More liberal hypocrisy: the leftist are supposed to be for the “little guy.” In their effort to combat global warming, they will end up costing jobs and economic benefits that will directly affect “the little guy.” Hey, but at least they will feel noble while doing it.
Mallard T. Drake on July 7, 2007 at 12:23 PM
Here’s another exit question: Will the events of today put him over the top in the voting and assure the Goracle that he can add another wing to his mansion to display his Nobel Peace Prize?
Mallard T. Drake on July 7, 2007 at 12:26 PM
Liam on July 7, 2007 at 12:15 PM
Take your frustration out by getting on the road - a good long drive will help clear your head and it will help generate CO2 to replace any that will be “trapped and store[d]” as part of pledge number 3.
While you’re out, why not swing by the store and buy a few bags of charcoal so you can come home and grill up a steak or two. Or just light it on fire for the fun of it!
kjspeedial on July 7, 2007 at 12:34 PM
Nothing against a good concert here…but this is just going to add fuel the fires of the teens I work with.

If these rock concerts don’t solve it nothing will.
A friend of mine cured his glaucoma at a Rolling Stone concert.
Rock concerts are an immensely powerful panacea.
Just in my lifetime, these concerts have cured all the aids in Africa, stopped all the hunger on earth. And they have made Bono spectacularly wealthy.

Yes, it is so great that all of these attendees are making such a sacrifice by attending a rock concert to fight in the great battle of our times. I mean really, this is our generation’s equivalent of storming the beaches at Normandy to save the world from Naziism.
Plus, you’ve got at least one guy there getting rich off of selling “capitalism sucks” T-shirts.

Hmm. Maybe, we can start the Stop The Live Concerts Concert and become spectacularly wealthy, too.

I’ll start taking Al Gore’s opinion seriously when he starts practicing what he preaches. Since he obviously doesn’t believe any of the crap he’s shoveling, why should I?
ReubenJCogburn on July 7, 2007 at 12:58 PM
Wanna really make us happy?
Yeah, that would do it.
thirteen28 on July 7, 2007 at 12:59 PM
The one sticking point in his concept is that he makes the case for treaties and laws which are not justified.
Sure if he wants to convince people to do things on their own hook fine if they want to buy into the doubtful science basis.
But to mandate legislation on such a doubtful issue is wrong.
If individuals or companies want to that is their free choice.
But trying to hogtie others who doubt the concept approaches the fantasy of trying to legislate morality.
CommentGuy on July 7, 2007 at 1:02 PM

Saw a news clip of one of these “concerts”. Beside all the lighting and sound equipment the stage back and side was covered in tires. I have to pay a disposal fee for old tires. What I wonder are they planning to do with them?
calgrammy on July 7, 2007 at 1:25 PM
In other news, I’m going to buy a washer/dryer for my apartment today. How many carbon offsets do I need to buy?
This concert thing is complete crap. Do celebs have to be such hypocrits?
mjk on July 7, 2007 at 1:26 PM
Gore Jr. needs to hook up with Snoops. The Dogg smokes weed like a chimney but due to his hemp offsets gets out of jail each time no problem.
I breath in and all I smell is the pure hypocrisy of these buffoons. I’m reminded of the last page of C.S. Lewis’s brilliant “The Screwtape Letters” where the demons drink vintage pharisee together.
I think even libs are getting wise to the unmitigated absurdity of this entire endeavour.

Anyone need to purchase beer offset’s…
doriangrey on July 7, 2007 at 1:29 PM
Well, hopefully it’s handled a bit better than Woodstock ‘99. That’s the biggest show I’ve been to and what a mess that was. Great music for the most part but everything else about was a mess. Overpriced food and water, no garbage pickup, port-a-potties overflowing, the heat, it was a mess in that regard.
Yakko77 on July 7, 2007 at 1:44 PM
I kept hoping to hear that Gore got the Candaian rock band Rush to agree to play and they got up and played Red Barchetta (a song about the future after motor cars had been outlawed and a man’s secret hobby of going to the farm and driving one of these outlawed vehicles) and The Trees (A song with a forest metaphor with equality of results [tree heights] being enforced by “hachet, axe and saw.”)
Oh well Gore probably would still not get that they are making fun of these types of activists…..
swampleg on July 7, 2007 at 1:44 PM
My my part Al this morning I have…
-run the weed wacker (a nice two-stroke noise maker)
-mowed
-BBQ’d some chicken
-Drove my pickup around just for the heck of it
-and presently burning a brush pile from the weed wacking.
Later I may fire up the generator just to make sure it still works. Just doing my part.
Oh, BTW, the check is in the mail.

2) “It is about global warming.” I wonder what the carbon footprint is of a self-immolating jihadi? And, is it sufficiently offset by the footprint of a nonplussed Glaswegian in said jihadi’s crotch?

I love concerts with a purpose! They always work so well. Remember Live Aid? Ethiopia is all better now! Thanks Geldof! How about Live 8, to wipe out poverty? Poverty is now a distant memory! After these Live Earth concerts, we can all rest easy, Global Warming will be stopped dead in it’s tracks! Thanks Al!

The leading geological theory is that we are living in an interstitial ice age period–i.e. a temporary warming period between ice ages. The long range future, no matter how many “green house gasses” are poured into the atmosphere is that it will get colder, MUCH COLDER.
Yet millions believe Al Gore, whose knowledge of geology is nearly as great as Cynthia McKinney’s acumen in quantum mechanics.

Since I have a good bit of sympathy for Al Gore’s environmental cause, I’m angered, angered over where his video is posted: avaaz.org.
For those who don’t know avaaz.org is a dhimmi group that takes ridiculous moral equivalences to new lows:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/stop_the_clash
There is absolutely no excuse for taking environmental politics down the path of surrender to the muslims. Does anyone really believe that the muslims who only capable of getting rich if they happen to live over something expensive are going to be good environmentalists? I’m sick of these “environmentalists” who use the environment as an excuse for socialism and dhimmitude.

The fact that it’s raining on the concert is a hoot. The President must be playing with his weather machine again.

“George W. Bush’s Republican party”? Yeah, because the party has really stuck by him… and because those elected members of the GOP have had the balls to blast this global warming hoax. Please! Bush has slowly gotten on the Warming wagon (though just enough that his base doesn’t burn him at the steak). Anyway, I don’t even want to get worked up about this… But I find that paragraph from the AFP annoying, though not at all surprising.

Okay then, KJ’s Karbon Kredits will offer a one year paid membership to Earth for every 10,000 Karbon Kredits purchased. Don’t just do it for yourself - do it for the children. Free the CO2!

I wonder how much fuel efficiency is lost on his vehicle when Snoop Dog “pimps it out” with those heavy, 27-inch gold rims.
Wasn’t he the same professional liberal “plantation” black who had a “vote or die” campaign?
Also, it continues to amaze and sadden me that all these celebrities castigate the rest of us as they fly around in jumbo jets and waste massive amount of fuel at concerts to tell we plebians how to live our lives.

After Live Aid, people forgot about Ethiopia. After Band Aid, people forgot about struggling small farmers. The same with all the other -Aids that have been put on (a key term here).
Maybe some good will come of today’s concerts after all, over and above the chance to make more fun of these people.
