AAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!

The EU plot to label diesels as "clean" is coming to the U.S.....I go crazy every time that damned VW ad on TV claims their disel soot burner is clean. All it means is that The EU and China and their coal-burning and diesel-burning societies want to sell you their diesel cars.......

AAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!


GO ahead...buy a diesel....but remember.... somewhere far far away on an ice cap covering the Arctic Ocean, little tiny particles of carbon created in your smelly stinky diesel cars are settling out and killing cute and cuddly polar bears.

Carbon aerosol particles are composed of light-scattering organic carbon, OC, and light-absorbing black carbon, BC. They are important to the atmosphere because they can block solar radiation and scatter visible light, and because they are as common as sulfates, which are a well-known particle component of the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels.

Carbon and sulfate aerosols, or particles, can affect the climate in two ways. The "direct effect" is the scattering and absorption of solar radiation by aerosols. Both sulfate and carbon (particularly OC) aerosols scatter light back to space thus acting to reduce the warming caused by "greenhouse" gases. BC heats the atmosphere by absorbing the sunlight. However, BC also results in surface cooling because it blocks the light from reaching the surface. There is also an "indirect effect," in which aerosols affect the reflectivity of clouds, making them "shinier." This also has the opposite effect of reducing global warming by reflecting the sun's heat back into space. Climatologists are now trying to understand the sum of these effects on global climate change.

In a recent paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, eminent climate researcher James Hansen of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Sciences argues that black carbon on the surface of Earth's ice caps absorbs heat from the sun, accelerates the melting of the ice caps, and increases global warming.

The right wing party name needs to be changed to the diesel party. I can not put my finger on it but there is something that irks me with these people driving around in these diesel vehicles. They are not just huge, They are obnoxiously loud and stink as well. I wonder if these "dudes" that drive these monster trucks(besides the ones that actually need them for work) really have small units. Judging by most that i see behind the wheel of these stinking hulks that might be true. I see hanging paunches and weak limbs and probably very litle stamina and strength in their bodies and legs. they do seem to have to have machinations carting their bloated bodies around no matter where they go. Whether an atv, suv, motorbike, truck, golf cart, etc.... Walking and biking to many are weird and socialist or something like that..Who knows what is going on in their nascar, convenience oriented brains.

Is the clean diesel made by the same folks who brought us clean coal?
