I'm retired, living off the dole. BTW, UPS is a leader in alternative energy sources in their industry. Thankfully the people who run the company are better informed than those who post here.

According to CDP.net UPS is the third largest contributor of CO2 emissions.

I know if I was so worried about climate change, I sure wouldn't work or take money from the third largest contributor of the problem.

From this chart, UPS is clearly REDUCING it emissions and contributions. This is something we can believe in.

Change.

Not ignorance to the climate.

Who's the first largest contributor ? Al Gore?

All transportation's are CO2 emitters. Note that UPS has a downward trend? UPS is also considered carbon neutral, and 1st in 'Green rankings' in the Transportation sector:

Don't know what you are trying to accomplish with false equivalencies, but knock yourself out.

Still the third highest emissions producer. So, global warming/climate change is not that big of a deal if you are making money off one of the biggest polluters in the world. That is some ethics, for sure. You can spin it anyway you want, but according to CDP.net, UPS is number 3.

No use arguing with an uniformed person using false premises.

If you can't break the facts down on your own, I'm sure whatever I say won't convince you.

UPS has done more than any transportation company to be a CO2 conscious partner in the global economy. They are one of the largest transportation's in the world, and one of the few that are reducing emissions. If you want to argue that they produce more CO2 than the NYC bike messenger service, go right ahead, but to argue that they are not a responsible partner in reducing CO2 is ridiculous.

"A new National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration study released Monday shows that the three-year California drought may have been caused by natural variability and not necessarily human-caused climate change."

Screw Global Warming .
The current real danger to the world is the amount of plastics found floating in the oceans .
The sea birds and turtles are eating this garbage and dying .
Some of these clusters of plastics are very huge , close to the size of Texas .

Benghazi!!, Benghazi!! Oh, you were wrong on that one too. The real danger to the world is the uninformed and the ignorant. Check your mirror.

Greenpeace has been forced to apologize for desecrating Peruvian sacred sites with politically motivated climate messages during the UN climate summit this week.

Obama wants to give $3 Billion to the U.N. for clean air, but China says NO, they are doing nothing. Save the $3 billion !!
He's going to get all kinds of opposition to that kind of $$$.

The CA drought has been for much longer than 3 years, so even if you can account for 3 years of natural variability, what about the rest of the time period?
