This is the U.S.A. not Europe. The US takes the rear seat to no one. This man made climate warming is nothing but BS if you ask me. The US business man/woman will not slow down when he/she has competition. And that is the American way.

Perhaps the Greeks, Italians and South Americans have the correct perspective on work and life with a place and time for everything. Life is too short to constantly rant and whine on GB Comments too.

This is funny....but interesting to note that our major economic slowdown has reduced out usage of oil and oil products for transportation quite a bit since 2008.
Of course I have not had a paid vacation week since 2009 after my previous employer cut ALL employee benefits to ZERO. I have left that job and will get 1 week available in June from my new employer.....who sells gasoline and diesel.
Also have not flown since 2005.....so I'm wondering who I can trade my personal carbon credits to? What only companies can do that?
...............done rambling.

I am waiting for the Day that the OBIMINATION Administration comes clean and tells the truth, that what they want the Center for Economic Policy to tell the American People is that if they will just stop living, that will reduce Global Warming. The Global Warming these Lyres are telling the People is just a Load of Hog Wash, and has no bearing in Reality or Truthfulness.

Global Warming... What a bunch of Baloney!!! First off, Global Warming - Doesn't EXIST! What we are going through is a cycle. Second, the earth is "cooling" overall, not "warming". The polar regions are the "only" regions where some "increase" is seen, because on the "bell" curve, the coldest regions are BELOW... the mid point of the temperature change.
Gee, get smart people! Quit drinking this poisonous kool-aid!

Thank you FloridaKeys. Well said. The "global warming" that some imagine is highly manipulative by human behavior is nothing more than severely ignorant propagandization. We have admitted hoax emails from Al Gore and associated followers where we learn the lies they spread so they can capitalize from it. Global warming caused by man: Sort of like how hitting a moth while cruising along at 60 will cause your car to go slower.

Their is no such thing as Global Warming. This is just another thing that our government can say they need more money to fix it. Global Warming can be fixed only by God not man.

I believe it. But whether Americans will adapt to it (or our bosses will consider it, other than "work 100 hours a week or be unemployable forever") is another question.

Four 10-hour work days versus five 8-hour days, and telecommutting are the two largest "fuel saving" means of reducing fuel consumption - which in turn is one of the largest contributors to green house gas emissions, and is the largest contributor to local vehicle-generated ozone emissions that drive summer gasoline blends.
Think about it - the largest weekly allocation for fuel use, is driving to/from work...
