Bow out, Dogs; You're Burning Up the Earth
Man’s best friends had better watch their back sides because the climate freaks are out to get you. It isn’t good news for dog owners across the country because their beloved pets, according to leftist lunatics, are part of the problem and not the solution.
The attack is directed at our furry friends and, by extension, at all who own and love them—that’s a lot of dogs and owners. According to recent statistics, Americans are increasingly adding dogs to their families. The American Pet Product Association, which keeps track of these things, has seen an increase in dog ownership since 2000. The most recent data indicate over 90 million dogs in the U.S.; a staggering $152 billion is spent annually. That may all change if an alleged scholars have their way.
Madalina Vlasceanu, a Stanford University professor and climate freak, commented to AP that most people are oblivious to how personal decisions affect greenhouse gas levels. She noted, “People over-assign impact to actually pretty low-impact actions such as recycling, and underestimate the actual carbon impact of behaviors much more carbon intensive, like flying or eating meat.
Another pseudo-intellectual, Jiaying Zhao, teaches psychology and sustainability at the University of British Columbia. Following the nonsensical thread of Vlasceanu and her kind, Zhao aims at those things we do that supposedly harm the environment without our knowledge. One of the enormous sins we commit is flying on commercial flights and eating meat. Forget now about how China belches pollution from its coal mines into the atmosphere daily with the world’s elitists’ blessing, but flying to see a loved one in another city or eating is verboten.
Of course, eating meat means we are willing to cause climate destruction because cows produce methane through normal digestion, and those farts emitted are this generation’s existential crisis. How can we allow the world to come to its end if we do not curb the noxious gas from bovines’ butts?
But Zhao claims our ignorance doesn’t end there. “People just don’t associate pets with carbon emissions. That link is not clear in people’s minds.” If only dog owners knew how devastating it is to own a dog, in Zhao’s dim mind, they could be part of the solution instead of the problem.
The reasoning is simple: dogs are carnivores and, by definition, eat meat. You can’t help but wonder if the following study will calculate dogs’ silent gaseous bowel emissions, too? What a whammy that would prove, not just one source of climate annihilation from cows, but dogs too? Unthinkable.
These climate fanatics are stupid people because they are so engulfed in their climate religion that they do not even know some basic facts. First, most dogs do not eat their dinner gnawing on a cow’s leg. Most eat dry food, some made from beef, but others containing lamb, chicken, salmon, and grains.
These researchers have no idea how dogs bring joy to people’s lives. They unconditionally love their owners and add companionship to young and old alike. Owning a dog adds a beneficial dimension to life. That is why they are called man’s best friends. Some dogs are bred to be support dogs, helping those who are mentally or physically infirmed. Some are specifically bred to help us in other ways, such as seeing-eye dogs, law enforcement, and military service.
These zealots, who hold good-paying positions in colleges and universities, left their intelligence at the door when they picked up the climate change membership card. They think they can say anything, and people are to believe them. It is frightening that academia has taken them seriously and keeps employing them to find another phony claim to support climate change. We all know it has nothing to do with the climate; the change they want to enforce is to have unfettered control over you and me.
Good work if you can find it.
