while I mostly agree with you, blu...maybe I've seen too much george carlin.
We're saving the environment for us, not for the sake of the world.
"Pollution isn't just a matter of having clean air to breathe, it's a matter of ecological balance, of changing climate, and in turn, affecting crops, livelihoods, and animal life."
I don't understand why people remove us from the ecological balance...like we're somehow outside of it...like we're so damn impressive that we COULD gobble up the worlds resources. or throw it that much off balance. Aren't we part of the balance? our mistakes too?
no...I believe we are responsible for the environment, and for our actions...and we should damn well do better to take care of it...but I also believe we're going to suffer for our actions....the only thing we're going to destroy is ourselves.

yeah...I may as well start shit too.
