Save the world, pee in the sea

You can do your part to save the world and prevent the end of our polluted planet. Piss in the ocean.

Some climate researchers are investigating the idea of dumping huge quantities of urea into the oceans on the theory that this will cause these oceans to scrub, if you will, massive quantities of carbon dioxide from the air.

Urea is a substance that naturally occurs in urine. The idea is that the urea promotes the growth of plankton. Plankton will create an algae bloom. The algae bloom will absorb CO2 from the atmosphere. Fish will eat the plankton and die .. and then will sink to the bottom of the ocean taking all of that CO2 with them.

well thats a pretty f*ckin retarded idea, biology 101 = dead fish rot, so carbon dioxide will then be released back where it came from, and while i dont know exactly, im pretty sure fish dont take too long to rot. when will they learn there is no quick fix cept to stop pumping crap into the environment.

Labeling carbon a harmfull pollutant will go down in history as one of the biggest cons ever. Did it ever occur to anyone that they are distracting people away from the real environmental issues, you know like the thousands upon thousands of toxic pollutants that are released into the air and water every single day across the globe? People are so easily misled. It would be funny, if it wasn't so sad.

I live in Oklahoma, I'm not driving 800 miles to take a piss... How about we just stop burning fossil fuels?

Our urine contains loads of chemicals from the synthetic pharmaceuticals we consume. It'll cure headaches for dolphins and give them longer erections.

	For just an instant, have a glimpse, a vision, of life through my eyes. It is a staggeringly joyous perspective, a view of how each person's choices can make their own life better. It is a vision of the possible, of how things can and should be.
