Hey Al Gore… Where is your God now?

Colorado manager Jim Tracy suspected this might not be a night for baseball when even his dogs wanted to skip the morning walk.

Major League Baseball agreed with Tracy’s beagles.

Game 3 of the Phillies-Rockies playoff on Saturday night has been postponed because of cold, snowy weather.

Major League Baseball rescheduled the game for Sunday night at 10:07 p.m. ET, and Game 4 was pushed back to Monday, at a time to be determined. Game 5, if necessary, will be played as scheduled on Tuesday in Philadelphia, without a day off for travel.

“I think it’s a very wise decision,” Tracy told The Associated Press by phone. “You could have something happen in weather like this where you could lose a player for half a year in 2010. I don’t think that would be good for anybody.”

No offense to the overweight, but they die quicker so it all balances out, right? Also let’s not forget fat people do provide a good deal of shade which helps cool the earth.

THE rising number of fat people was yesterday blamed for global warming.

Scientists warned that the increase in big-eaters means more food production — a major cause of CO2 gas emissions warming the planet.

Overweight people are also more likely to drive, adding to environmental damage.

Dr Phil Edwards, of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said: “Moving about in a heavy body is like driving in a gas guzzler.”

Each fat person is said to be responsible for emitting a tonne more of climate-warming carbon dioxide per year than a thin one.

It means an extra BILLION TONNES of CO2 a year is created, according to World Health Organisation estimates of overweight people.

The scientists say providing extra grub for them to guzzle adds to carbon emissions that heat up the world, melting polar ice caps, raising sea levels and killing rain forests.

The environmental impact of fat humans is made even worse because they are more likely to travel by car — another major cause of carbon emissions.

Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth has met its match: this devastating documentary recently shown on British television. Despite its flamboyant title, The Great Global Warming Swindle is based on sound science and interviews with real climate scientists. An Inconvenient Truth, on the other hand, is mostly an emotional presentation from a single corrupt politician.
