I am Dr. Ned who is totally not Dr. Zed in disguise.
It is quite frankly ludicrous to say that humanity has no effect on the climate.
Also when the media was using global warming as the moniker for climate change the people who went
"It snowed lots this winter, so there can't be global warming."
They are especially idiots.

Buh, buh, buh, climate change scientists have engaged in immoral behaviours!
On a more serious note, showing some of the copious evidence would help your case.
Not like I give a damn. I'm not cutting my usage of fossil fuels in the slightest. Why should I care about saving the enviroment? I'm only gonna live for ~90~ years anyway.
I don't know em so fuck em
And I'll be dead. And I'm one man. I cannot screw the world over that much, not to mention I'd have to give up my favorite would-be hobby (cars).
Charity? I don't know those poor suffering people. Screw 'em.
[semijoke]Not to mention that the idea of a broken down and used future is kinda cool[semijoke]
Not time trial while annoying stuck-up hippies yell at me.
I, for one, don't have long hair, marijuana, or tie-dye shirts. :P
That was uncalled for. Seriously.
"And I'll be dead. And I'm one man. I cannot screw the world over that much"
At the risk of it sounding like an "but if everyone does it" argument, a culture based around bad environmental habits does screw over the world that much. So as an individual, your impact may not seem that much, but your habits validate such a culture.
I'm not advocating that we burn fossil fuels at an increased rate.
I just want to time trial in peace. You do know that most major racing organizations are trying to reduce their enviromental impact, right?
I hate the anti-gearhead/anti-car bias all liberals seem to have.
"You do know that most major racing organizations are trying to reduce their enviromental impact, right?"
It's cute how naive you are. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. What are they trying to do to reduce their environmental impact?
Even though she does believe in global warming.
Is this one behaving as an example of everything that is wrong with humanity?
I hate the anti-gearhead/anti-car bias all liberals seem to have.
Umm, sorry?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KERS Here's one.
Oh and:
"The FIA is responsible for making rules to combat the spiralling costs of Formula One racing (which affects the smaller teams the most) and for ensuring the sport remains as safe as possible, especially in the wake of the deaths of Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna in 1994. To this end the FIA have instituted a number of rule changes, including new tyre restrictions, multi-race engines, and reductions on downforce. Safety and cost have traditionally been paramount in all rule-change discussions. More recently the FIA has added efficiency to its priorities. Currently the FIA and manufacturers are discussing adding bio-fuel engines and regenerative braking for the 2011 season or from the start of the 2013 season. Former FIA President Max Mosley believes F1 must focus on efficiency to stay technologically relevant in the automotive industry as well as keep the public excited about F1 technology."
Stop talking shit about things you know FUCKING NOTHING ABOUT.
Neither socialism nor social liberalism really has anything to do with environmentalism at all.
Which would be nice, but the current rate is already problematic.
It must be so tough for you.
Funny, I thought we were talking about you. That being said, a racing organization trying to reduce its environmental impact is like a tobacco company trying to reduce the amount of carcinogens in its products. It's better than nothing, but, well, that's about all that can be said about it.

Edit@Beholderess: Not particularly. I do far less than I could to help the environment. The part that disturbs me is the attitude, not the action. If he'd said something to the effect of, "Helping the environment is nice but largely incompatible with my car fetish" I might have made a slightly disapproving remark, but not more than that.
