1. The Norwegians dont hold back on the fruit...
... did you see all of the oranges laid out at the CEREMONY.

That explains the overall lack of fat hanging off of them no doubt. ;)

9. I'm glad photos of the massive carbon footprint were included.
Missing are the 2 747s and motorcade.

On the eve of the climate talks, how much better a statement would it have been to appear via web cam rather than a huge entourage. Just sayin...

11. Probably not that much.
I mean, transportations a rather minor contributor the greenhouses gases in comparison to fossil-fuel power plants that run his computer and yours.

Also, I don't think most Swedes are a bunch of crazy ass whiners who are full of shit about that sort of thing. Or the Danes, for that matter.

14. American liberals aren't bitching about CO2 emissions at Copenhagen.
That's classic freeper nonsense, a rehashing of attacking Al Gore over the electricity he uses at his house.
