Vaping bad for the planet?

[diggyb]

So with so many new people vaping every day - have we really thought of the possible repercussions?

What if so many people are vaping that we change the weather? Huge clouds going up into the sky. What about meteorologists? Obviously they will have to adapt and go back to school to learn about this phenomenon.

I've seen movies and read books about changing the weather and it never turns out well.

The sky is falling!!! The sky is falling!!!

Worse case scenario, we create lots of water vapor filling the atmosphere causing world wide flooding. Typhoons, Cat 5+ hurricanes etc. other than that, I see no problem. I live in FL, below sea level and don't seem to worry about flooding all that much. My biggest fear is sinkholes...

If we all synchronise watches, and every vaper in the world blows a big cloud in the same direction, we can probably push our orbit slightly further out from the sun, counteracting global warming.

On 3! No, wait, my left or your left?

People who vape are generally ex smokers. Which do you think is better. The 3000 odd chemicals in a cigarette going into the atmosphere or the few chemicals from vaping ? Not to mention with every exhale we are technically damaging the planet. Every time we drive to work, turn on a light switch use aerosol deodorant etc etc we are harming the planet.

I see by your sig you have been vaping for just over a week. When you get more into it and research e-cigs a bit more you will see that the harm from vaping to the individual and to the enviorment are minimal. Good luck with your journey

Pssst... I think he was joking.

uhhhhhhhhh those sink holes are created by water getting into the earth and washing away the bedrock,,,,,,

the more clouds we make, the more rain we have, and the more sinkholes

Heck, I'm game

Stephen King's "The Mist" - pretty sure we're going to exhale an environment perfect for creatures from another dimension. That's why you don't blow clouds in a movie theater!

I read in "The Art of War" that synchronicity of movements is important. Does that help?

I could probably write a thesis with all the research I've done in the past week. It's my personality (the research and the thread )

Thanks for your well wishes.

Yeah.... thanks for the chuckle.

Is your homework done? Is your room cleaned up?

Haha. Not what I was expecting when I opened the thread. I was thinking about litter.

I think I read somewhere that cow poop was the worst for the atmosphere,,,,,,,



we should all become vegitarians

 

[CommaHolly]

maybe that was cow farts,,,,,,,,hmmmmmmmmm

 

[generic mutant]

Surely we should have one *epic* barbecue to end all barbecues, get rid of all the cows?

Humans can't effect the climate! It's all a conspiracy! Now, excuse me while I enjoy sun bathing in Missouri during mid-November.

Nah - but I finally hooked into a vendor's API with JSON. I was trying to convince them for weeks that there was a bug in the data they were returning that was causing my code to fall over - so frustrating - but finally after putting together a ppt showing exactly where the bug was, they believed me and fixed it.

Before that, made biscuits and gravy for my three kids. I have a favorite biscuit recipe - if you're interested in it, I love to share!

Then I took a tick off the dog

Before I finish with my day job and go home and cook dinner (I'm making pierogis with a smoked sausage and sauerkraut filling from scratch tonight), then retire to my home office to finish up a client I have for my own web design business, I thought I would take a few minutes to relax and be goofy. It keeps me fresh.

edit: oh crap - the Bs are playing tonight too. I have to squeeze that in after I clean my room!
