... seem to be at their lowest for 500 million years (that's 500,000,000 years).

Perhaps higher CO2 would be better ? Ward off the next ice age.

More power to heat and CO2 generating data centres, I say !

How many cheeseburgers it takes for them to fly a lobbyist to DC...

i'm gonna has cheezeburger ANYWAY.

i'm getting my coat and leaving immediately.

1 Google search = 850 newspapers

1 OJ = 1.235 newspapers

1 Cheeseburger = 17.647 newspapers.

His figures and logic may be entirely true and accurate, but they're not going to get a half page in the Daily Mail, are they. Or a carbon copy article in all other newspapers and the BBC.

can we have an addendum in el regs units table - cheeseburgers to mpg etc etc ...

I second the call to add this to the standard el Reg weights and measures system.

Carbon copy? I would have thought that was the last thing we needed these days...

CO2 at it's lowest????

Gimme a tug on that pipe, man...I wanna see the strange colours and alternative reality too...

for adopting the Cheeseburger as the Reg unit of carbon emissions.

Please can someone do the conversion of Google searches to those units slimmers get on the side of [fat|sugar] free things so I can see how much weight I'll put on when I do a Google search?

Remember , CO2 isn't the only greenhouse gas , and burgers don't come from a "Burger Factory"

Mine's a Deep fried Big Mac with chips.

I mean, we let OJ off the hook for murdering his wife, so now we have to blame him for global warming?

If only I could get these cheeseburgers to stop using google every time my back was turned they wouldn't be slowly cooking themselves via global warming.

Jeez, another exotic, obscure system of measurement.

How much CO2 would that come to in, say, Bulgarian Airbags?

>> CO2 emissions seem to be at their lowest for 500 million years (that's 500,000,000 years).

You forgot top say "into an atmosphere with free O2". Formerly, there used to be an atmosphere composed mainly of CO2, I would think

Please update the el Reg weights and measures conversion tool immediately.

Almost as many cheeseburgers as it takes to fly Algore or Nancy Pelosi around on their jets...

Flame, because my gas sipping, corolla isn't doing nearly enough to fend off the impending, sun-inactivity-caused ice age... it does save me a buck or two at the pump, though.

I blame the pope

Well-played on the 'carbon copy' bit, sir. I applaud you.

But didn't Harvard prof Alex Wissner-Gross take into account not only Godgles energy usage but also the energy for the PC of the searcher, and not only the time it took to perform the search but the time it took the human to read the displayed results and filter out the ads etc.. ie the energy used from the point you type/click google.com to the point you click on a result (the right result? did you try three others??) and didn't it also include an amount of energy used by the Telco & ISP & backbone routers during the search request (and delivery of the first few incorrect sites??)

it all adds up....

Who gives a shit? I mean really.

Who cares about the CO2 a google search emits.

A search on stuffonmycat or icanhascheezburger can we add those the units of measurement as well :).

Leave teh Kitties their cheezburgers.

This CO2 religion has as much credibility as Intelligent Design and for the same reasons.

Do you have to use "I'm feeling Lucky"? Or is it good for any Goooooooooogle search?
