Apparently, the new Cap and Trade law is causing a stink at Santa Claus LLC Toy Factory at the North Pole. Why you ask? Well, it seems that methane is a green house gas and rain deer are big polluters, and the EPA wants to fine Santa Corp [NYSE symbol CHRS). The corporation has purchased the new approved EPA rain deer rear-end cover and recover devises, but they keep falling off of the rain deer in flight, and the FAA is very concerned about these incidents.

Once the covers come off the methane escapes into the atmosphere. Santa Corp claims that the "Methane emissions from rain deer are down by 50% and that's a green house gas savings of 112 flight miles per animal per square meter of methane produced." The company also complained that it cannot trade carbon credits because rain deer produce methane, not CO2, but Santa Claus LLC is still responsible for the green-house emissions.

Santa recently argued; "I am not sure why I didn't get a Nobel Peace Prize for keeping the peace in families around the world for nearly 9-decades. Al Gore promised us Global Warming, but the North Pole is colder than ever. Now I may have to close the company, and if so, I am going to have to move to Florida where it is warm, I am freezing my rear end off here, and I don't want to let anymore methane out!"
