The Sad Reality About the Recent Environmental Disaster

The most recent environmental disaster has been devastating news for everyone at the forefront of the green movement. For all that have fought so hard to protect Mother Earth from its attacks by its enemy of man. To those that have worked tearlessly giving their lifestyles to reverse Global Warming and their hearts to this cause. Everyday you hear the news and see the pictures on TV and I understand the painful emotions that must come from such horrific images.

I know it was excruciating to watch but now the true story of this disaster is coming to light. Yes the current volcanic eruption going on in Iceland, since it first started spewing volcanic ash, has to this point, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet. Not only that, this single act of God has added emissions to the earth estimated to be 420 times more than can be corrected by any of the current proposed regulations.

This is hard on all of us to know and now realize but all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV, going on vacation to a city park instead of Yosemite, nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your $1 light bulbs with $10 light bulbs ...well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just the past few weeks.

I'm so sorry. And I do wish that there was some kind of a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud but the fact of the matter is that all the work you and others have done in the name of Global Warming has truly gone up in smoke.
