Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore warned hundreds of U.N. diplomats and staff on Thursday evening about the perils of climate change, claiming: Cigarette smoking is a "significant contributor to global warming!"
The facts:
1) Every match used to light a smoke produces 785 BTUs of unnecessary heat to the environment ( butane lighters produce in excess of 1435 BTUs ) .
2) Smoldering butts not only add to the global warming, but also produce 0.0098 micrograms of carbon monoxide.
Other topics of great concern are:
a) Slaming doors really hard
b) Clapping too loudly at concerts
c) Concerts
d) Loud music
e) Cooking food over any source of heat
The implications as to the logical end to this data is clear..... We're all gonna' die !!!!
