I read an article today stating that only 45% of our carbon emissions remain in the atmosphere… the rest are absorbed by the oceans and other natural balances for the carbon cycle. Since I already knew the amount of greenhouse effect our total CO2 emissions would make, it seemed natural to figure that in as well. Here it is: Our CO2 emissions account for .011% of greenhouse effect. This is the portion our government has decided to try taxing out of existence.

I have a better idea.

Let me begin by saying that I went to school for Physical Geography, specialized in Fluvial Geomorphology. That's the study of water's effect on the land... be it rivers, runoff, groundwater or glaciers. I wouldn't say I'm an expert by any means, but I know a thing or two about climate change.

In light of the continued push for socialized medicine and the penalties for non-participation in the program, I felt it may be appropriate to give the Governor a little push towards asserting KY's sovereignty. Here is the letter I am sending. Feel free to copy and use it, pass it on to others to send... Let's get a letter campaign going and let Beshear know how we feel on this issue.

Here's a link to Beshear's contact page: http://governor.ky.gov/contact/contact.htm
