Kid Explains How To Combat Global Warming

The title says it all. I have no idea where this came from. Some reader just emailed it to me and I think it's brilliant. If you know where it's from, please let me know so I can give due credit.

Cool indeed, excellent summary... though obviously not drawn by kids (unless their teachers did most of it).

Btw, nice website!

WTF? Eat less meat?!?

In answer to "eat less meat? wtf?" The farming of animals for meat (cattle particularly) is both resourcse intensive (i.e. lower yeild from the land per metre squared than alternative protein crops eg. soy, oats etc) and that the animals themselves are a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions in terms of how they themselves metabolise their food, grass, into meat and methane.

@doug-
Dont we eat animals to get rid of their emissions?
i mean.
anybody can be a kid, but was it a child or an adult that drew this?

This is definitely not done by a kid. But it would make sense to kids.

I know that they are pre-installing all of this information into all current children in certain states.

My nephew came home crying the other day because he was so stressed out about global warming and what his teachers were telling him. I guess the world being destroyed was upsetting to him. It's hard being 8 years old sometimes.

They were playing the "Inconvenient Truth" in some elementary schools for a while. However since some of the information in the film is invalid, they determined that playing the video for schoolchildren was equivalent to brainwashing.
