Here's a piece of the satire. enjoy -- and go read the whole thing.
The global warming bill, up for debate in the Senate this week, includes a little-known provision to reduce the nation’s collective carbon footprint, and to make the U.S. energy-independent by replacing the burning of petroleum products with the burning of paper currency.Under the terms of the legislation, Congress would require that businesses and individuals burn money to run factories, heat homes and propel motor vehicles.
“Money is a relatively clean-burning, renewable resource,” said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-CA. “If we need more, we don’t have to go crawling to the Saudis, we simply mandate that our own people send it to us.

Wouldn't burning virgins work just as well? Except for the screaming and the shortages in some parts of the nation. Heretics, how about heretics?
Or perhaps we could burn all the heretics of the Gaia religion -- all the global warming agnostics and everyone not leaping willy-nilly on the green bandwagon...
Nah, any religion that has their principal god short of consonants and glottals is simply to smug and smarmy to burn except maybe as incense.
