Maybe they outta ban older cars that can't pass the emissions test too then.
What we really need to do is ban politicians that buy into global warming conspiracy theories.
Okay, in all seriousness, and with the exception of Al Gore, how do politicians stand to benefit from such "conspiracy theories," particularly when these theories, if acted upon, mitigate production or profit for private businesses? I say this with an understanding that a large percentage of politicians' careers depend upon that person's wealthy acquaintances, executives of said businesses.
I'm pretty sure your main grievance is that the people who support these theories are "liberals." And any issue supported by a liberal, you condemn before thoroughly investigating. So beyond your severe disdain for all things liberal, how else do efforts to curb global warming, fact or fiction (it's a fact by the way, and you fall into the same category as those curmudgeons who never accepted the moon landing) inconvenience your daily life?
Yes, I have as much fun taking the piss out of you as you do provoking liberals, but for real: what's your main concern? That the fight against global warming will raise your taxes?
Addendum: banning beach bonfires is ridiculous.
There is no global warming. Last year global temps dropped enough to wipe out a century's worth of "warming".

Is there climate change? Maybe. What's causing it? Nobody knows.
