Obama will dump 375 Tons of CO2 into Atmosphere on Earth Day.
I need to really work on my carbon footprint...
LONDON DAILY MAIL:
Obama will burn more than 35,000 gallons of fuel on Earth Day, emitting 375 TONS of carbon dioxide.
President Barack Obama is marking the 44th Earth Day with a carbon-emitting extravaganza, spending more than 15 hours on Air Force One and 15 minutes aboard the Marine One helicopter. Not including his motorcades in Oso, Washington, the site of a recent devastating mudslide, his trip will consume an estimated 35,565 gallons of fuel.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the statistics arm of the Department of Energy, burning each gallon emits 21.1 pounds of carbon dioxide, bringing the president's Earth Day carbon footprint to more than 375.7 tons.
The White House did not respond to a question about any measures it might be taking – planting trees, for instance – to offset those emissions.
