Whaling Worsens Carbon Release

The BBC has an interesting article today about whaling and carbon release--one more reason to "Save the Whales."

Kevin's Gravatar I am all for saving the whales, but this seems like a giant stretch. In the last iteration of climate bill they weren't even counting agriculture into to the carbon trade - there is no way they would also include whales.

Brad's Gravatar I think banning whaling in the cap-n-trade bill would hurt the overall bill.

Kevin's Gravatar I was just giving you a hard time. I think whaling is pretty bad (check out whale wars) and feel that extending the badness to climate change dilutes the message. Still, the science is very cool and have never really thought about how much carbon goes into a whale. It turns out it is a lot.
