Goldfish

[TheRewster1]

Cap and tax is being pushed by the same people who pushed Obamacare. Just like Obamacare, they lie. Call your rep and tell them to vote no on Cap and Tax. We need to let Republicans do this correctly. Let me ask you this. Do you trust Pelosi, Reid and the biggest fibber of them all Obummer? This is all BS to control you.

[40joel]

global warming is a fraud

[Goopydude]

No, but the stereotypical american WILL eat themselve to death.

[FishingKing754]

Interesting analogy.

[priscillaandpathos]

i really likes this video! I think it would be awesome if you remade it with live action shots of a live goldfish in a bowl. And maybe at the end, once the bowl is filled with oil, it bursts apart because its too full. That's what i imagined.

[alchemistofsins]

What alot of people who believe its too late, and no offence have a thick head dont get (really no offence theres no other way to describe) there can be something done this is humanity evolving, we needed to make mistakes to get better, and were getting better, and just by saying that its too late just goes to show that you really dont care about trying. That is what most people call..lazy, I was never green a few years back but I'm gonna try. And I know I'll be doing good on my part in helping

[ZOMGAPOTATO]

Is that true that a goldfish will eat itself to death? O_O

[centpushups]

sadly it is true.

[Biocube14]

What's wrong with using oil? Our F250 with a 29 gallon gas tank is great. We drive around for fun with a 84 foot trailer attached and have a blast.

[alchemistofsins]

Yes some oil can last a while and what not but did you know that 24 mill out of 29 mill of oil that go into the north american ocean is not from oil tankers, its from actual human activity. Its sad really, I mean we may not get rid of the use of oil but cutting down could help a bit. =/ just telling a fact so please dont yell at me.

[YUKIpandaa]

OMG LOL.

[ruseriousreally]

Bullshit. Complete Bullshit.

[mclight81]

a political agenda thinly veiled as an environmental agenda. Just come out and say it. You hate what America stands for. Why are you still here?

[NotSoUniversal]

you hate america most of all....terrorist

[FunJr]

Anthropogenic "Global Warming" is the new Spanish Inquisition of the 21st Century. Oppose it, and be branded for it.... It will be another century until it is proven wrong by revisionists.

[djchrisgeo]

Seriously! Something has to be done! It's ridiculous. Not only are the SUV's heating up the earth, but it's heating up ALL OF THE OTHER PLANETS IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM! This is a GALACTIC PROBLEM! And no, it's NOT caused by a higher activity of solar flares. It's the SUV's!

And these record cold temperatures we are seeing.. that's GLOBAL WARMING TOO!

QUICK! SAVE THE GALAXY!

DESTROY THE SUN! Errr, I mean

TAX THE POPULATION WITH A NEW CARBON TAX.. ERrR...

I mean END GLOBAL WARMING!

[BaneOfFreeSpeech]

i so cant wait for the air to turn brown and water black. that would be fucking awesome. think about all the land we could have if all the animals were dead and we didnt have to worry about reservations. fuck this im going to go turn my car on and burn all my gas. then buy some more. i totally hate the enviroment. stupid fish pooping in water and cows farting for a day and being more toxic then 14 cars turned on for an hour. fuck this stupid planet maybe it will make us want to goto mars soon

[chewytoys]

Of course humans have an affect on the Earth, as do moose, crows, fish et al... but we're not frigging aliens.

There's nothing wrong with tryng to live as pollution free life as possible but that's up to us to make those decisions. People need to take personal responsibility for their actions and stop wanting or waiting for governments and industry to change for you. If people were as concerned as they 'say' they are, the f-150 wouldn't be the top selling vehicle in NA.

[AndreYDanieL]

I agree.I`m now using a hybrid vehicle,alson stopped throwing the garbage on the streets.And I backstabbed those who were doing this,this is our world,love the world so the world would love u also. Hate the world ,so the world will kick your ass:)

[joekool4422]

You've obviously taken numerous philosophy/speech classes. Attacking the intelligence of your audience is certainly the most effective communication tool.

As for the cycling of the climate, another ice age is inevitable, but we have no idea what depleting the earths resources will mean for its future.

To assume that we have no impact is selfish - and as you so eloquently put it - foolish.

[CHENGANG1216]

地球将来会如何呢

[radon1234567]

so you want to reduce our dependence on oil do you? BUY LOCALLY MADE PRODUCTS! a HUGE percentage of the gasoline and diesel fuel burned is the result of cheap shit made by slave labor in foreign nations being trucked across our nation, not to mention the sweat shops in places like california. BUY LOCALLY MADE PRODUCTS. GO WITHOUT!. MAKE IT YOURSELF. FIX IT! for GODS SAKE DONT BUY ANYTHING from WALMART! cap and trade is a scam by people like al gore who make tons of money off of morons like you!

[StrwberryCoff]

I think China's sheer numbers will lead to them surpassing us in oil consumption, probably pretty soon. I can't stand it when environmentalist try to turn this into a moral subject. What is the solution? To subsidize corn ethanol? We found out hemp is the best source for ethanol, but it is a controlled plant. Maybe we should let ethanol decide its own future! If there's a market for ethanol, then that market will come about naturally.

[Brujah9]

meh pretty much, we produce a lot of our own oil too so alternative energy sources will hit our pocket books as well is kind of a catch 22.

[AsianCaptainObvious]

what the hell. This thing doesn't say anything about HOW cap and trade works. Pretty much useless.

[Brujah9]

yeah that was not terribly helpful.

[keveen5]

If you want to know why these fake carbon taxes are being pushed, i recomend watching ENDGAME: blueprint for global enslavement by alex jones. Rather than talk about real enviromental problems, the establishment would rather tax the carbon cycle, which is a natural part of our ecosystem. Furthermore, even if you beleive in global warming, these regulations will just force all industry away from America, and into places where there is NO regulation.

[Minuteman9112012]

Foolish B.S.

[williamfos]

The Martians better pay their fair share too!!! They are melting their ice caps with this Carbon you speak of.

[notscooter952]

Even with environmentalists, gotta have the fear mongering. Right on. 1*

[iamunconscious]

Why all this blame on the US? Even if every single person in the US went "green" (which is fuckin' expensive), China is still going to screw us over. They have NO regulation on pollution. I've been there for 2 months and only saw the sky twice. It's smoggy as hell.

[seabiscuitjunior]

was the place called chengdu?the weather condition there is horrible.

[iamunconscious]

Nope, I was in Shanghai. Chengdu is AWFUL too! I mean, even when you're in the airplane flying over China, it's smoggy. I think Chengdu is the worst city in China. D:

[slopmaster1]

What BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[Quionic7]

The oil will run out soon enough, maybe in the next 100 or so years. Besides its too late to stop anything. The Earth goes in cycles.

[Quionic7]

Especially since they drive, go on planes, etc. How hypocritical.

[kudos0000]

stupid liberals..

[lupofilms1]

my name is sal lupo.i'm a filmaker & drive a cab in nyc. Check out the trailer for the movie I'm making:

[pblennerhassett]

when fusion is perfected we wont need any oil ^.^, but if not ,we'll have hydrogen powered cars, wind, solar , wave, thermo and nuclear powerstation to back us up.though we better hurry up because saudi arabias oil runs out in 15 years '-', well atleast obama will help out the world

[xanafanadu]

obama wont do shit. he's not superman u asswhole

[Wodey25]

The inference I assume I'm supposed to make from this propaganda would appear to be at best a logical fallacy.

[SlomoUofR]

CO2 is not pollution. Plants breathe it.

[DarkGhost209]

Half right, there is an over abundance of it there for CO2 is a pollution. Its polluting our air.

[kelelala]

but co2 causes greenhouse effect

[jordythegreat]

global warming aint a big deal, and i wanna thank john stossel.

Hey give the environmental defense fund some credit, they managed to get money for a fake cause. If that means they have to make some bullshit commercials then w/e. I wouldn't mind having that job lol.

[thisguy86]

How many of u take the bus?

[GmanZombie]

Well I have to drive its not like you can take a bus from Orange County on the 405 to L.A at 5:AM in the morning everyday and still make it in time.

I hate when gov. uses metaphors. This is suggesting we're as stupid as goldfish...I bet they believe it to. We would be stupid as goldfish if we believed this propaganda.

[frankodelic]

not all of us are as stupid as goldfish... just you

[drogden]

I wasn't saying we are. The video is. You retard.

[MichaelHerr84]

And we wonder why people get confused:

Although burning oil does cause greenhouse gases. Addiction to foreign oil and greenhouse gasses are not one in the same.

What if we switched do domestic oil, coal burning, and tree burning.

That wouldn't do anything for greenhouse gases.

This is a great video, Great analogy, just fix the words. Forign oil, has nothing to do with what's in your video. Maybe make another video, instead of two seperate topics in one, looseley tied togehter.

[LOL9397]

lol. :)

but we all seriously have to start going green !!

[Sev660]

everytime i masterbate i kill kittens :)

[NORWEGlAN]

and because there's no heaven or hell, who gives a shit if we are "bad people" for it

[joekool4422]

You may want to care because it's quite possible that you will be reborn as the shit stains you currently offer the world.

[thekyu]

haha. With the rate of pollution right now all our grandkids will have to live in caves to avoid all the pollution. The time is near when Keanu Reeves is going to come to earth and wash away all mankind

[joekool4422]

Reading the previous posts makes me very sad.

I'm not sure where people gained this sense of entitlement from but the earth is not ours to use at our disposal. Humans and/or all the inhabitants of earth may pay if we continue on our current path - and it may very well be in our lifetime. Newton said the earth would not cease until at least 2040. So best scenario says we have 32 years.. regardless we are surrounded by LIVING THINGS that we are DESTROYING.

So sad after reading your posts...

[zzx2847]

Why is it that enviromaniacs only complain about the U.S. when it comes to pollution? Not one of the top 10 polluted cities in the world is located within the U.S.

Instead try looking at Russia and China for once, for crimes against the enviroment. Oh wait, they're socialist paradises... NM.

[joekool4422]

Perhaps because the US consumes 25% of the worlds oil. Far more than any other nation in the world.

Also environmaniacs can only do so much in other countries whereas America is a country where anyone can get a job done (and should start by reducing its impact) - which makes it so fucking wonderful.

[Hulgy]

im gonna be long gone by the time this shit starts to matter.

but i want my great-grandkids to breathe clean air.

[xXanimegurl25Xx]

oh..well ..

lots of people

used oil..

[jk4514]

yes, bodell18 is right on, OK check out the New Energy Revolution. the energy crisis and pollution problem can be fixed, this video is not offering any solution. We need clean energy, environmental stewardship, and a new humanity on earth. fight the new world order oppression and be the change you wish to see in the world

[pimpmytricycle]

i agree. Our problem is clearly the "old" humanity. Fucking old people. Go with God

[joekool4422]

True it offers no solution, yet it is a visually effective tool that can aid in opening the minds of those otherwise ignorant on the matter.

[4QBUD]

Rich people get bored so very easily. They think playing musical chairs with 4 children requires 4 chairs so no one loses and no one gets their feelings hurt, In their view anyway. No one learns anything except the teacher likes to march the kids in a circle and they get a break every once in a while to sit down.

Rich people start poor folk running in circles with their People Magazine and MTV and E TV. Get a life and a hobby of your own and let these Movie Actors build their own dreams.

[MrHairyNutz]

you see how pathetic this add is "End our addiction to oil" seriously 2000 miles of solar panels wont even feed nyc addiction to power for 1 day, so what is there awnser?......THEY DONT HAVE ONE!

Just another leftest ploy to bankrupt our nation cuz they dont want us to succeed they dont give a crap about us cus they live in mansions so what the fuck do they care

[joekool4422]

I know the pressure from your land may seem overwhelming, but it doesn't have to.  The people have the power. WE THE PEOPLE. WE THE PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER.

As for the video - it would be far more helpful (and far less stressful) to see the positive of the video. As I said in a previous response: the video is a visually effective tool that can aid in the opening of minds of those otherwise ignorant on the matter.

[samfad12]

it is already too late

[nhlluver19]

the fish metaphor really wasnt necessary

[myrdale]

Lame.

[spartanofrapture]

Environment*

[spartanofrapture]

Actually, bodell18 is right.

If any of you have actually studied the enviroment, or even biology you should know this.

[bodell18]

the earth goes through temperature fluxuations, every 100, 000 years there is a heat wave where everything is tropical, and the next 100, 000 years its an ice age, WHAT HAPPENED ABOUT that long ago? ice age 100,000 years later, its time for hot again, its just nature, sure pollution is bad, but we cant stop global warming

[Austinbit]

Thank god my family isn't the only one who understands 3rd grade science.

[MrHairyNutz]

I Agree with bodell18

[toshzpelta]

Please everyone 1 STAR this video!

What about the economy? Is taxing us when we're broke the right thing to do?

Is hitting someone while they're down the right thing to do?...

[elliott22x]

How about we worry about the economy.

all these scientists are heard saying were killing the planet. But no one ever hears about the scientists who say were not killing it that fast!

lets deal with the obvious problems! Health Care! Education! Jobs!!

then we'll worry about the environment.

But I would rather be in a world where future generations have to be starving and dying because our country has gone to shit and no one has jobs. But our planet will stay nice and green. =] (sarcastic)

[seriouslyWeird]

you're an idiot, wow

[suntzu1985]

this video appeals strictly to ones emotions and as such is extremely flawed. manmade global warming is a fraud because there is NOTHING that we can do on the Earth to assuage the problem because it is caused by the Sun. you know that bright nuclear fusion powered star that provides light during the day. this cap in trade and carbon credits business is a scam to extort money and destroy the American economy. the real question is do you want to live in a Third World country like somalia

[AceObrin]

Which would hurt us more: Carbon caps as a measure to make green, low-carbon energy sources more appealing, or foreign powers dictating our energy prices? Hmm... which is more likely to end up in economic enslavement (a la most Third World countries)?

[suntzu1985]

NONE OF THE ABOVE because the basic premise of your stupid environ weenie ideology is WRONG!!

the problem with global warming is that it assumes a hubristic view that MAN is the cause of the problem. the reality and the TRUTH is that it is the sun that dictates the earth's climate and weather and when the sun emits lower radiation levels there are lower temperatures on the earth which has been occurring for the past 11 years now. the earth is NOT warming it is cooling, look at the weather!

[GmanZombie]

Suntzu1985

People think Global Warming which is only happening In some parts of the world is due to Mankind

If mankind had never existed it would be exactly the same as it would be with us.

Just like how the Earth is eventually doomed to be destroyed with or without us.

[suntzu1985]

that me be how you see it, but how the leftists and socialists see it is completely different. in their mind it is America's fault thus the logic is to destroy America AND our economy and sadly there are many liberal intellectuals and demoncrats who want EXACTLY the same thing.

[zzx2847]

So the USA is a goldfish with too much food?

HOW DARE WE! I mean just look at all the pollution we cause from eating too much. You can barely walk outside without seeing trees covered in soot. Oil slicks in the street. Baby seals with beer cans stuck on their head. WHAT HAVE WE DONE??

[tattooedgeek79]

That was a very informative video on goldfish, with some bumper sticker slogan about oil addiction at the end. That is the best the envirodefensefund can come up with?

[you420tube]

This is wrong! yes we need to stop depending one so much fossil fuels. but this is bad for Americans soon there will be carbon taxes! Taxing Americans more and more even though the Auto makers have the technology to make emission free cars. Why don't they? Huh they are in bed with the oil company's and they want to keep selling you oil and cars. If we stop using so much then there will be less produced. caping emissions and taxing Americans is no way to go!

[ihavtugo]

the car company's can do shit because there close to going bankrupt to.

[stopglobalwarming08]

GREAT METAPHOR!

stupid OIL COMPANIES forcing OIL DOWN OUR THROATS!!

go green

[Gabriyela4u]

like the interpretation

[dlix]

oh noes, climate change! The climate can't possibly fluctuate!

I think it's interesting that the same alarmists who warned about an ice age in the 7s are now preaching global warming. You know what the solution back then was? Burn more fossil fuels!

[rochha]

I hope the world blows up, to kill all these idiots

[yedrellow]

This coming from the bastards which supressed nuclear progress during the seventies and eighties. To you I say, fuck off, you know nothing. It will simply get to the point where supply is insufficient (or too expensive for demand) on a global level. That is what will cause the change in energy. Placing caps like this merely ridistributes income to the few exploitive mother fuckers which look for things like this. (The money from these taxes goes somewhere ...)

[kkkmiloduke]

usa sucks!!!!!!!!!!

[opinion56]

more environmentalist propaganda to drop on the morons. Its ok I forgive you

[drogden]

I don't get it. Does this mean we have to invade iran?

[morcegotrop]

lool well said.

[Iggisan]

Wow, nice metaphor at the end. I'm gonna steal that.

[OmniSurveyor]

President Obama is being driven around in a monster gas guzzler refered to as "the Beast". He has the heat in the Oval Office cranked up so high. that David Axelrod joked that he could grow orchids in there. It's a shame he's not leading by example.

[mjdealr]

I dont get it..... does this mean fish have to fight in iraq if they want to eat?

[dangingold]

market based solutions to climate change are too little and too late. The system that caused the impending catastrophe cannot be trusted to rectify the situation, especially since the profit motive continues to reign supreme.

[Yggdrasill4]

Their isn't any reliable alternative energy, big oil will reign supreme until 2050.

[kmister234]

BS

2012 is going to make 1984 look like a good time.

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

Thanks to this kids are going to try and feed their goldfish to watch it explode and flood the tank with food and they're parents are going to have to buy more fish food. Thanks!

"The Amazing Story Behind Tho Global Warming Scam"

By John Coleman

January 28, 2009

From criminalizing efficient refrigerants (Freon), which results in dangerously high Ozone at ground levels, to criminalizing the removal of dead and dying vegetation, which results in hotter, longer burning forest fires, pretty much EVERYTHING the enviro-mystics do is maximally damaging to the environment.

Their latest gospel of thermal Armageddon (lest we shut down the engines of mankind) is no different.

[Truthiness231]

And before I'm jumped by a hippy: I care about the environment. WHO THE FUCK DOESN'T? BUT, most of you have been greatly misled. Please, I implore you, look into this further.

To illustrate how very very easy it is to mislead hippies first (short vid): watch?v=yi3erdgVVTw

The "full" story (in that there isn't a full story) about global warming (made by a popular (and openly biased) LIBERAL, m'kay): watch?v=JAu68OsFggw

[Truthiness231]

Inform yourselves: currently, our alternative fuel sources are inferior. To make a rapid switch to the more expensive fuels would kill MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, and it won't be Americans. These groups want RAPID change, which would force people to buy the more expensive power. The problem: those who can't afford it will be without power. Africa has already been devastated by rising power costs, and now you fuckers want to kill the rest of them off?

[Truthiness231]

Someone already bad-rated my comment, though the coward didn't have anything to say about it.

Rising power costs kill. Duh. If you don't know that, you don't watch the news in the winter when all the elderly people are dropping off. It's not some crazy scare tactic to get your money (the "not giving donations to the green fad" donation, right...), I'm trying to tell you all that most of this shit is hype. (like, well, most the media tells us)

[plasticfelinerodent]

Ok, what does the environment have to do with a fish. Yeah, I know the earth is suppose to take abuse continuous until it is completly destroyed, kind of like the fish, but it's completely unrelative.

[canoflaughs]

it's a metaphor, which arent supposed to be related.

[Truthiness231]

Read the description: apparently a gold fish is directly equatable to America, and oil to fish food. IOW, we will eventually consume so much oil that our stomachs will explode... I guess (however, every anaylist I've heard says that if we keep consuming oil, the oil would run out, and thus there would be no more oil and we'd starve. But it was a stupid analogy to begin with so what'cha'gonna'do? ^.^)

Does anyone honestly know what the EDD is supposedly doing to defend our environment?
