Global warming could do all those things......

But, alas, because HUMANS do not cause global warming, the sun does,
there's nothing you can do about it.

Your rant about the boats means nothing. If you think hydrocarbons cause
global warming, you have the wrong targets. Delta Airlines burned 9.6
BILLION gallons in 2005. Their head fuel purchasing agent revealed this
on Bloomberg TV while discussing ticket prices and the company's stock
price. This is ONE airline. Step one is to ground all wasteful jet
airplanes. Business can use teleconferencing instead of jets.

It won't help global warming, of course, but the air will be VASTLY
cleaner! Am I the only one who noticed how BLUE the sky was in the week
following 9/11/2001 when they were all grounded??

Yachts consume an infintesimal percentage of fossil fuel use because
there are so few of them....and the ones there are, only a tiny
percentage of those ever put to sea. We call them "dock condos". Dock
Condos produce less hydrocarbons than regular condos.
