Scientists Contribute to Greenhouse Gas Emissions

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."

  1. Michael is a horrible editor who should be fired: by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    Why? Why fire one of the most active editors on slashdot?

    Although they claim this is a news site, michael openly admits his extreme bias and his affinity towards slanting the facts to fit his predetermined notions.

    michael was hired in the middle of hijacking the www.censorware.org website in a very immature, unethical, and corrupt manner.

    michael will frequently censor entire threads down to -1, simply because he doesn't agree with it.

    Even worse, sometimes michael (or some other slashdot editors) will mod a thread down to -1, and revoke mod point priveledges if anything, *anything* in that thread is modded up.

    Of course, this is just a partial list. michael's unprofessionalism, hypocrisy, and immaturity are well known to most long term slashdotters. It's amazing that despite this, and despite everyone's complaints to him and CmdrTaco, he has yet to change. This should not continue. michael should be fired now.

    They should all gather by burro and colect the manure to use it to make natural gas.

    Yeah, it may teake three months from NY or Washington but hey, they should not be such hypocrates.
