Are cars the " Locusts with breastplates of iron?" Rev 9;9

Isn't the environmental damage that we are causing today mostly from cars? Rev.9;9 says they will have " breastplates of iron." Their sound will be like " chariots of many horses running to battle." Have you ever stood beside a freeway and listened?
Are the car's exhaust pipes the " stings in their tails? " Rev.9;10 Is it their king from the bottomless pit? Rev.9;11 Is this not the oil wells we dig for our cars? It says their king is the " angel from the bottomless pit." His name is " Abaddon." Isn't this the name of the first great Iranian oil refinery town in the Persian Gulf? I wonder if this how the " Sun and air are darkened? " Rev.9;2
So are we then the ones who " have not the seal of God in our foreheads? " Rev.9;4 Because we just keep on polluting. Was this brought up by Christians at the recent Copenhagen Conference?
Are the " teeth of Lions " indicating that the cars cause great consumption? Are the " faces of man " that John sees in this vision, are they not our own human heads that he sees in the windshields? Rev.9;7 I wonder?

Transportation is not the biggest contributor to global warming; eating meat is. Farming meat is the largest cause of environmental degredation today acording to the United Nations.

Back in November of 2006 the United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organization made public their findings that “the livestock sector generates more greenhouse gas emissions as measured in CO2 equivalent – 18 percent – than transport.” Henning Steinfeld, Chief of FAO’s Livestock Information and Policy Branch went on to say that ““Livestock are one of the most significant contributors to today’s most serious environmental problems. Urgent action is required to remedy the situation.” Before then the University of Chicago had already produced research showing how diet impacts the environment, and that a vegetarian or vegan diet can have more effect on your carbon footprint than switching from a gas-guzzler to a hybrid car.

We are being farted and belched into extinction!!!!

To think a frozen methane deposit being released could do the same thing!! Global warming and cooling are cycles:) This is just not as natural as most other times.
