The pollution lobby always lies and blames environmentalists. It's a sick-sick deception campaign. The biggest lies the pollution lobby tells us are as follows:

- Cutting pollution costs jobs (just the opposite, clean fuels programs and industries create new cleaner, better jobs)
- Cutting pollution is too expensive (cheaper in the long run)
- Cutting pollution is not macho (like the Marlboro Man with lung cancer, sure)
- Global warming is goofy science (absolutely proven fact actually and accelerating dangerously now)
- Deadly polluting fuels are The American Way (and this from the supposely "Pro-Life" party)
- It's too difficult to kick our gasoline habit (the technology is there to replace it if we invest and try)
- Endangered species are going to die off anyway (if we let them)
- Tree-huggers are ridiculous hippies (in a world without trees, we all die, everything would be a barren wasteland)
- Gasoline is necessary and cannot be replaced (Brazil has replaced gasoline quite successfully)
- Don't mess with Texas (actually, Texas, quit messing with our environment)
