Belgium to impose tax on barbequing to fight global warming
04.03.07 (3:13 pm)   [edit]

BRUSSELS, April 3 (RIA Novosti) - The government of Belgium's French-speaking region of Wallonia, which has a population of about 4 million, has approved a tax on barbequing, local media reported.

Experts said that between 50 and 100 grams of CO2, a so-called greenhouse gas, is emitted during barbequing. Beginning June 2007, residents of Wallonia will have to pay 20 euros for a grilling session.

The local authorities plan to monitor compliance with the new tax legislation from helicopters, whose thermal sensors will detect burning grills.

*Boggle*

How much CO2 is released by the damn HELICOPTERS?

You human-caused global warming fanatics have gone completely mental.

Heh!

I make it a policy to not antagonize anyone who lists "lightsabers" and "cannibalism" in their interests. ;)

We ought to have an Nth-Degree-of-Silliness Tax for .government officialdom in Belgium, don't you think? Ohhh, and a Monthly Silly-Sausage award for those who come up with stupid ideas like this one ;> You know, thoolou, I honestly laugh in the general direction of those who cling to the idea that everything to do with "global warming" is attributed to something we Hot-Air-Bags do on a daily basis . Forget the notion that our weather patterns are probably affected by the sun's CME's, solar flares, volcano eruptions, etc. But, regardless of what I think, the post affirms my belief that our world leaders and their sychophants are sniffing glue and they will start the world on fire with their blue-dart-special parties ;> Sorry, but I just can't help myself, excuse me for a second .
