SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) – A group of Bay Area environmentalists has proposed labels that will warn drivers of their contribution to global warming every time they pull up to the pump.
Similar to the Surgeon General’s warning on a pack of cigarettes, the proposed stickers would remind motorists of the State of California’s position that fossil fuels are leading to potentially hazardous climate change.
The labels are needed because, “There’s no immediate signal to a consumer of gasoline to show their effects on climate,” Jamie Brooks told the San Francisco Chronicle. Brooks represents 350BayArea.org, the group behind the proposal
And who's gonna pay for your stupid stickers Jamie??? Moron.May the FORCE be with you!

Those stickers have to be designed (on computer most likely) and printed by machine (electric). They have to be transported by trucks throughout a large state comprising over half the west coast. Not to mention the trees that will have to die to make the paper to make the stickers.
From where I sit, that's some carbon footprint for something so useless.

I suppose that it's an improvement over when activists used to put stickers on other people's SUVs as a protest.

Before you can do things for people, you must be the kind of man who can get things done. But to get things done, you must love the doing, not the people!
