Jet planes and global warming

You know how a lot of global warming "deniers" like to talk about how "chickengreens" such as Al Gore talk a good talk about being carbon-neutral, but they continue to fly around the globe?

At Science Daily is an article about how aviation may affect global climate. The best sentence:

Scientists estimate that the effect of aviation emissions on the climate is up to five times the impact of emissions occurring on the ground.

So allow me to toast the Lear jet liberals who scold me about driving a four-wheel-drive SUV on hilly, snowy roads while they in one airplane flight probably produced more carbon dioxide than my late, lamented Jeep did on one year.

Before they talk about buying carbon offsets, I have a lot of trees on my property. I hate to cut any of them. I like trees. We need more trees. They inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen.

If you're going to scold me for owning a Jeep, scold Brazil for allowing the destruction of the Amazon rain forest. And scold yourself if you don't have enough trees in your front yard.
