When it comes
to the Earth's demise, writes David Harsanyi, no one is innocent.
You see, eating more means humans must produce more food—and more
carbon dioxide. It means we must raise more soon-to-be juicy steaks
that have a tendency to emit greenhouse gases that reek. You might
find the thought of regulating food intake and livestock flatulence
a bit bizarre, but hey, if it means saving the Earth, why not? In
other words, get ready for a dazzling display of environmental
alarmism this week as Washington takes up the evils of modern
living.
