A suggestion for the EPA

Now that the Persons in Black have poured more carbon-cutting power into the laps of our good friends, the bureaucrats at the EPA, I have a friendly suggestion for the EPA, offered in a spirit of goodwill. In order to cut CO2 emissions in the U.S., there is no better strategy that I can think of than that laid out in Rachel Carson's CO2 reduction masterpiece, Silent Spring. If you can eliminate the smallest CO2-emitting creatures from the food chain, you can cause a dietary chain-reaction, exterminating dozens, hundreds, or perhaps even thousands of CO2-emitting species from the face of the beloved (but overheating) planet.

Let's all help the EPA fulfill its mandate by chipping in and shutting down the biggest carbon-polluter of them all: the animal kingdom. Kill a deer, save the world.
