Well finally… Global Warming alarmists are claiming that there are other causes not just limited to human activity but other life on this planet that is now contributing to the Global Warming crisis. It makes me sleep better at night knowing that us pesky humans are not the only guilty culprits on this earth.
I found this news piece in the Wall Street Journal:
http://www.opinionjournal.com/best/?id=110010506
"Norway is concerned that its national animal, the moose, is harming the climate by emitting an estimated 2,100 kilos [4,630 pounds] of carbon dioxide a year through its belching and farting," reports Der Spiegel:
Norwegian newspapers, citing research from Norway's technical university, said a motorist would have to drive 13,000 kilometers in a car to emit as much CO2 as a moose does in a year.
So not only man but animals cause global warming. Apparently the only way to preserve life on earth is to wipe out life on earth.
For the entire article view this link:

So what are the Global Warming alarmist’s going to do to remedy this situation? Do we genetically alter the plant life to make it less gassy? Do we force feed the moose Gas-X or Beano on a daily basis? Do we install catalytic converters on each moose’s tail end? Or just kill the entire moose herd?
I suspect that the Kyoto accord will now have to be re-written to include every country’s wildlife species and population sizes. It is kind of ironic on one hand Liberals will go to great lengths to preserve animal life at any cost and on the other hand the protected animal’s belching and farting are supposively killing us.
So does this clear the way for America in the name of Global Warming to kill all the caribou in Alaska near ANWR?
At least the Global Warming alarmist are moving away from purely human causes of Global Warming to maybe one day include other causes like natural disasters (for example volcanoes) and/or fluctuations in the sun's activity.
In a few more years, the Global Warming crisis will be extinct as the Dodo. The Liberals (Socialist) will have found another crisis to push their social engineering agenda. Socialist really do not like facts that dispute their crisis mode antics.
