Walking Causes Global Warming?
Rush talked about this on his show today (Tuesday) I thought it was a joke.

Well, you’d be very wrong. According to an environmentalist’s calculations, walking, or any exercise for that matter, is worse for the earth than driving:
Walking does more than driving to cause global warming, a leading environmentalist has calculated.Food production is now so energy-intensive that more carbon is emitted providing a person with enough calories to walk to the shops than a car would emit over the same distance. The climate could benefit if people avoided exercise, ate less and became couch potatoes. Provided, of course, they remembered to switch off the TV rather than leaving it on standby.

Wow. If I try to think about this logically, my head might explode. It’s probably a good thing I moved to the other side of the world, away from political talk radio.
