In observance of Earth Day I shall replace my divots.

The Obama girls are going to celebrate Earth Day by attending a bash in Hollywood where several uber liberals are coming together to give speeches encouraging the little people to stop destroying our planet.

I wonder how many tens of thousands of pounds of carbon will be dispensed in our atmosphere to make this Earth Day celebration happen? Oh and it won't be the little people polluting our planet on this very special day.

How much energy, and taxpayer money, will Obama's kids burn up getting to Hollywood?

Why am I not surprised that Justme turned this OP into an Obama bash. Sick, Sick, Sick!

Less than 1% of Sweden's trash ends up in a land fill. Great job Sweden!

Congress just passed an energy bill (albeit a very weak one.)

With the droughts in California and Texas, I hope everyone is growing at least some of their own food. I expect a huge price spike in food this year.

California is going to turn into our Greece as their water runs out and everything grinds to a stop. Yes food prices have already spiked, expect more spikes as this summer proves how bad the situation is. Some California farmers aren't even planting this year, they're selling their subsidized water instead to others.

I thought this thread was about Earth Day and stopping our wasteful ways to save the planet? So the biggest wasteful family on the planet is off limits?

Yep, the Obama girls jet off to California for Earth Day celebrations on a military jet while their Daddy jets off to Florida to play golf, oh and talk about saving the planet, the White House won't say where Mrs. Obama is jetting off to on Earth Day.

More Than 9,000 Gallons Of Fuel To Be Used On Air Force One For Obama’s Trip To Everglades On Earth Day

WASHINGTON (CBSDC/AP) — With swampy wetlands and alligators as his backdrop, President Barack Obama will use a visit to Florida’s Everglades to warn of the damage that climate change is already inflicting on the nation’s environmental treasures — and to hammer political opponents he says are doing far too little about it. He plans on getting in a few rounds of golf while in Florida making his trip multipurpose.

The White House explained Obama’s trip to the Everglades on Wednesday, timed to coincide with Earth Day, marks an attempt to connect the dots between theoretical arguments about carbon emissions and real-life implications. With his climate change agenda under attack in Washington and courthouses across the U.S., Obama has sought this week to force Americans to envision a world in which cherished natural wonders fall victim to pollution.

According to CBS News White House Correspondent Mark Knoller, Obama’s Earth Day trip to the Everglades will cover 1,836 miles roundtrip and consume 9,180 gallons of fuel on Air Force One.

Now lets get back to listening to the liberals tell us how important it is for us little people to sacrifice on this very special day and to leave the liberal elites destruction of our planet out of the discussion.

It would take me over 8 years to use up 9000 gallons of gasoline.

It would take me over 8 years to use up 9000 gallons of gasoline.

And according to Obama you would be the problem for being so wasteful, who the hell do you think you are to use up fuel at that rate, that 9000 gallon could get him to a location for a round of golf. Trust me, he does not have a problem demanding you to go without for 8 years so he can that round of golf in and feel good about himself because he got you to cut back.
