    Help stop DHMO use!

    Due in part to its widespread use in industry, Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is involved in many environmental incidents each year. While most are unavoidable given current technology, there can be little doubt that the presence of DHMO in each significantly increases the negative impact to the environment.

    Among the many commonly-sited DHMO-related environmental impacts are:
    • DHMO contributes to global warming and the "Greenhouse Effect", and is one of the so-called "greenhouse gasses."
    • DHMO is an "enabling component" of acid rain -- in the absence of sufficient quantities of DHMO, acid rain is not a problem.
    • DHMO is a causative agent in most instances of soil erosion -- sufficiently high levels of DHMO exacerbate the negative effects of soil erosion.
    • DHMO is present in nearly every creek, stream, pond, river, lake and reservoir in the U.S. and around the world.
    • Measurable levels of DHMO have been verified in ice samples taken from both the Arctic and Antarctic ice caps.
    • Recent massive DHMO exposures have lead to the loss of life and destruction of property in California, the Mid-West, the Philippines, and a number of islands in the Caribbean, to name just a few.

    global warming was a misscalculation on our scientists parts and not to mention when a volcanoe explodes it spues out 100x what we can do in one year. its a natural effect and even if we werent here it would still be happening

              Well, if it's true, everyone should be dead then...most of our body is DHMO.

              Apparently, it's a joke...

                  Yes this is a joke although several people have already fallen for it but I guess they still fail to read the last part of my post

                    So many have fallen for this. A whole town almost voted to ban it because of a hoax website. Penn & Teller did a great segment when they went to a protest and had people sign a patition against it. It was just to prove some people barely recognize or research a cause, etc.
