From “Baby On Board” To “Baby On Board Who’s Quite Concerned About Melting Glaciers”

We learn this about New York:
Governor Eliot Spitzer Friday signed legislation requiring that automobile manufacturers affix “global warming index” stickers to new cars and passenger trucks beginning in the 2010 model year.
Fair enough. Then we see this:
The index will be based on emissions of carbon dioxide, a major contributor to warming temperatures worldwide, in addition to methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons and sulfur hexafluoride.
In other words, they’re basing the index on New Jersey.

This could backfire.
In the same way that some teenagers search for the parental advisory CDs, some people are going to search for the car that is GLOBALLY HOT.
