MrLabGuy,
I'm far from being what people consider Green. I drive a V8, a Harley and have two high performance cars in the garage. I don't believe in recycling (please see Penn and Teller's show BULLSHIT to understand why..)
And regardless if the "Green" paranoia is accurate or not, doesn't it just make common sense to take precautionary measures? Wouldn't you rather live in a world that is powered by wind mills and solar energy and by the currents of the sea, rather than with coal and oil?
Now I'm not suggesting you run out and by a Prius. But in my opinion, why not at least accept the fact, that if we continue to pollute at the rate we do, EVENTUALLY, things will get worse. And, if there is somthing we can do now to slow it down, then why not..
Even if we say to big industry, you must CAP the pollution you make at the levels we have now, isn't that better than letting them pollute more. There are alternatives and big business needs to find a way to make it more common/cost effective.
What if all taxi's, police vehicles, gov't vehicles, etc were hybrids or alternative energy by 2015. Would that be so bad?
My point is, there is no need for hysteria imho. But there is also no need, not to work towards a cleaner place to live.
