An activist, I am. An extremist, I’m not.
There’s been much talk recently about the validity of global warming. You probably guessed already that I am on the side of believing in the idea. I’m not quite Al Gore, but I definitely am concerned. What I can’t understand is the people who are completely against the idea that we have any impact on our environment. Let’s assume, for a minute, that global warming is a complete farce, or at the very least something that is happening independently of any action humans are taking. Still, what proponents of global warming suggest we do is use less energy, create less pollution, recycle, and buy local. Do these practices really offend anyone?
If they do, you are a moron. Sorry.
What I’m saying is that if none of the policies or practices ever put a dent in the theory of global warming, that doesn’t make them bad ideas. For instance, I am not in favor of taxation without representation. So, I can understand that plight from the Tea Party protest groups. But I can’t understand the extreme bias and hatred for all liberal ideology or the absolute ignorance of preventative measures for the possibility of global warming. Nor can I condone all disdain for conservative philosophy, after all, couldn’t we all use a bit more fiscal responsibility?
Enough. We are here to talk about food. For food you need earth and for earth we need to take note of what we do to maintain this planet. If we can be good because Santa Claus is coming, we can certainly use a bit less energy because we may need it in the future.
Think about it.
With this in mind, think about observing Earth Hour this Saturday, March 27, 2010.
