What is the "carbon footprint" of...?

more than I produce in 40 years.

The issues of global warming and fossil fuel usage are certainly closely connected. The use of oil and natural resources will decline in a decade. But this would not reduce the carbon dioxide emissions automatically; the replacements with coal, heavy oil and tar sand contain even more carbon, if to make them produce the same amount of energy they will produce twice more carbon. But the fact is that all transport, roads and airports for this transport are useless without oil. To create a new transport system is a task for the whole society, not for an individual, besides it would need money, time, natural resources and a lot of brain power. So the previous arguments concerning a lot of money spent on the stopping or at least slowing the global warming can be put aside against these ones. The projections made for the future state that Earth will be an ice planet without greenhouse effect, the Earth will get warmer, by the 2100 the temperature will be 1.5 C - 4.5 C warmer, the increase will be less in the southern hemisphere and greater in the northern hemisphere. The global temperature is connected with carbon dioxide level and methane level, which at the moment exceed greatly the past levels.

Machines don't have eco-footprints....people do. World leaders have big eco-footprints because of all the travel they do, but you really should research whether or not Obama is "offsetting" the carbon output in other ways, before you jump to conclusions.

For Climate-Change a teleconference would not build the same trust relationships that meeting people face to face does. It will be for the greater good.

A little less than one three hour military fighter and associated support flight.

How many flights have there been in the last ten years?

You know there isn't just one plane that goes on a U.S. presidential trip, right? Reagan used to have his bed ferried around with him on another plane.

I'm sure the official answer is "zero" as long as 0bama "creates awareness" of Global Warming/Cooling/Temperature Consistency..

I'm not sure but I know it is'nt as big of a "carbon footprint"George Bush and DICK cheney caused spewing their Republican Propaganda stating their is no global warming and we don't need to regulate pollutants being dumped in our water supply and our atmoshere.

About as large as Shaquille O'Neal's.

Bigger than you and I together could do in ten years!

big enough to destroy us all, one would think

unless, of course, agw is a hoax
