The CO2 State
Texas produces more carbon emissions than most countries, but the state government and business community don't seem too concerned
If Texas were its own country, it would be the 48th most populous in the world, right between North Korea and Ghana. In terms of landmass, at 268,000 square miles it would be the 40th-biggest. But when it comes to environmental impact, Texas is on par with some of the largest, most industrialized nations on the planet.

I'd also like to dispute your other facts. If you counted the illegal aliens I think you would find that Texas is bigger than North Korea.
After that mad cow thing a few years back they seem to have a pretty good count on cows, so until we can figure out how to change their diet I guess we'll keep on polluting.

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 13,900,000 as of January 2004, according to the experts on how many cows in Texas, the <ACRONYM title="United States Department of Agriculture">USDA</ACRONYM> National Agricultural Statistics Service.

I can only eat so much. They seem to pop out calves quicker than I can eat. I hope this whole global warming thing isn't my fault.
