Do what your conscience and what your soul wishes.Even if it won't make any difference at all.

But that would work only if many people acted.But since they are too busy with individualism and materialism the very few ones that are willing to act can't make the difference unfortunatelly.U_U.

Don't go even to WC with your car, tell your parents you rather take the bus, small things make change. Also, buy a Hybrid Lexus if you have the money..

oookay I could go on all day


Man I'm busy as hell. Hit me up on MSN or pm me.

Darn, Thunda, you started out so good, then shot yourself in the foot.

Excuse me, but no one needs to buy a Lexus - hybrid or otherwise. Their hybrid may be conserving more gas than it used to, but think of what goes into the rest of the vehicle. A Lexus is not basic or necessary transportation, it ostentatious, materialism ..... comfortable I admit.

like i said earlier >.>'''
there are a LOT of things that we can do to contribute to the environment~
buuut x]
there are a few problems~
first off, most all eco friendly alternatives are bit more expensive (thus, unwilling buyers; w/ the willing and capable buyers a VERY VERY small minority)
second, most all eco friendly alternatives are scarcely practical (no one's going to go out of their way for anyone else, much less the environment. and again, environmentalist = very VERY small minority)
third, environmentalist, and even people in general that give even half a rats @$$ about the environment are a VERY small minority...not to mention how many hypocrites are included into that minority as well >.>'

if just one person in every hundred thousand were to do something right (environmentally)...
well...we wouldn't be making very much progress x]

maybe if the ratio were something of 1 in every 2-4
then, i can believe that that small number is making a diff~



andddd our environment iS changing =.=
whether it's a phase or not...
but some clams don't grow as big as they used too
due to the warmer weather ._.

which means =.='''
smaller sashimi portions ;_;

First of all... you sound like you've been reading into research carried out by Corporate sponsored thinktanks of which I know is out there. However I'm not going to debate the science behind it as I know very little about it.

All I'll say is that I'm going to trust research endorsed and carried out via the UN over any of these thinktanks.

Oh by the way... You contradict yourself. You say global warming isn't real and then in the next sentence claim that the climate is changing. Though I suspect you meant to argue that humans don't play a significant role in climate change. The degree to which humans play a part however is irrelevant to me. The more important challenge is how to adapt to face these problems. Because if you're right and the human impact is minimal then there is no way to avert them.
