Scientists Contribute to Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Posted by michael on from the doh dept.

dus writes "Many of the 10,000 scientists attending this week's annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) study climate change. Collecting them all in San Francisco undoubtedly increases our understanding of global warming, but it releases more than 12,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, pointed out one of this year's delegates."

    One scientist flatly denied emitting greenhouse gasses, suggesting that maybe the dog did it.

    well hell, we should just kill all scientists. i mean, they all contribute to most environmental problems in one way or another. they put out waste, drive cars, live in buildings, use computer which were manufactured with very dangerous methods, etc etc.

    they must pay for their crimes!
