Do you know why there are no changes to CAFE standards? It was blocked in Congress by the autoworker's union.  It had nothing to do with people's belief in manmade global warming. Everyone wants to spend less on gas. If individuals are not willing to change their demands when it comes to goods, then little change in emissions are going to take place. China is the world's biggest polluter, these days. Why? Because people want cheap shit. So, although the hemp story was nice, if the individual isn't willing to make sacrifices, why would we expect businesses to make them for us? I offer that a person who quietly cuts down on his own energy use is far more useful than one who joins the chorus of doomsdayists, and doesn't do squat. |
And I offer you the obvious better choice.....a person who quietly cuts down on his own energy use AND one who joins the chorus regarding doing something as a group that is effective for our society....go figure..yet another choice beyond the one that you propose.
