Dr. Rodney McKay: If he's so worried about global warming, why did he fly us here on a private jet that spews out more CO2 than Sweden?
Trivia: The show's two hour premier broke the SCI-FI's ratings record by attracting over 4.2 million viewers. It was also the most watched cable program that day.
Question: Why can't they use every last iota of energy they've got and dial earth and ask them to send them any ZPM's that they could find?
Answer: Because even all 4 Naquadah generators (one was destroyed) together is only enough to dial Earth for approximately 1.2 seconds (As seen in the episode "Letter from Pegasus"). Further, if Earth had found a ZPM, they would dial Atlantis and let them know. After all, the SGC has no other use for a ZPM than to dial Atlantis.
