[QUOTE="curlietailz, post: 6510732, member: 11831"] Found this interesting article..... "Back in December 1991, Newsweek writer Jerry Adler stated: "It's a morbid observation, but [B]if everyone on earth just stopped breathing for an hour, the greenhouse effect would no longer be a problem.[/B]" Last year, after the U.S. proposed that a nation's use of so-called "carbon sinks" -- carbon dioxide-absorbing forests and grassland -- would be counted toward emission-reduction targets set by the UN, the eco-radical Climate Action Network sarcastically suggested that this should include "people who stop breathing" -- that is, the dead. So if we're serious about beating back the supposed scourge of [CO.sub.2] "emissions," [B]our options must include either population reduction[/B] or respiration taxes.." [B]Citation[/B] (MLA 8th Edition) "Coming Soon: A Respiration Tax!?" [I]The New American[/I], 10 Sept. 2001, p. 10. [I]Gale Academic Onefile[/I], [URL]https://link.gale.com/apps/doc/A78738304/AONE?u=tou&sid=AONE&xid=294ad3b5[/URL]. Accessed 14 Aug. 2019. [/QUOTE]
