No one cares if you burn wood, or breath out. As long as plants grow, the carbon produced by dying plants and animals is simply circulated between the two. Carbon taxes on fossil fuels make sense because they aren't balanced by anything, having been stored in the Earth's crust from millions of years ago, they are being added into our atmosphere and not taken out.

Well maybe in not the breathing part, but there is talk of taxing those of us that have fireplaces. I disagree on your take of Carbon produced from fossil fuels. An additional 250ppm in our atmosphere will spark additional plant life to grow to bring homeostasis to bare the brunt of this.

Where will that additional plant life "spark" into existance?
How fast will it "spark" into it?

We don't seem to manage existing forests and their habitats... expecting our *sses to be saved by forests "to be" well ...

Other suggestions?

It would not surprize me a bit. Now they are after those of us who enjoy fireplaces....

Oh and BBQ grills too

I guess our friends down under better get munchin! I don't think I could ever eat a kangaroo or camel.

A Very Super Market · 01-04-09, 09:49 PM

I've eaten camel before, doesn't taste much different than other meat, if a a bit stringy. And its true that Sheep, Cows, and pigs are grossly inefficient foods to produce.

we post up every now and again, roo meat is one of the leanest, tastiest meats going around.

delicious.

And we simply have so many roos its silly not to make use of them!

A Very Super Market · 01-04-09, 09:53 PM

You guys should start eating those rabbits too. Heard they're quite a nuisance down under

TarJak · 01-05-09, 12:11 AM

Roo steaks! Yum goes great with a big bold Shiraz.

Got some for dinner tonight so I'm doing my bit.

Camel I've never tried but heard it is pretty good tucker as well. Rabbits are good eating too as long as it is a meaty one.

I'd like to try a Kangaroo steak, but I'm not all that familiar with Australian wine. Do you know a good Australian Shiraz that's relatively affordable?

Rockstar · 01-05-09, 07:40 AM

Anyone try camel toe?

I couldn't find "Wyndham Estates", but I did find some "Yellow Tail". Is that any good, and would it be inappropriate if I obtained it from an Asian female at the liquor store?

Roo burgers are great.....taste really nice.
