The Guy That Invented the Internet assures us that we need to walk and bike more and now this "expert" is telling us Uncle Al and his band of carbon emitting superstars have got it wrong.<BR/><BR/>adrian, are you a vegetarian? An interesting aside, the Mongol diet consisted of nearly only meat and milk.<BR/><BR/>peter, I agree. It's pure nonsense.<BR/><BR/>ny, Lol!

If you can't walk, you can't get to places (including your car), eventually you will need something, but since you can't walk anywhere to get it (like food), you die. Hence, your carbon footprint goes down to zero, and once you're fertilizer, it increases thereafter. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919292080793445660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37179942.post-20627002994911539212007-08-27T14:49:00.000-04:002007-08-27T14:49:00.000-04:00Given that the driver is also likely to eat a high...Given that the driver is also likely to eat a high protein diet, probably more so, this idea doesn't really work.
