Description:

Stirring the pot a little here. I think some people are into the environmentalist game for the wrong reasons. Here's one of them.

It's the American way. The sayings "haste makes waste," and "waste not, want not" don't seem to matter to this country anymore.

I was reading an article in the LA Times this morning where and environmentalist was contemplating the paradox of getting rid of perfectly good appliances to trade up for green ones. "Save the Environment buy more stuff!"

Goddamn those green commercials were annoying. Talk about missing the point; I mean, telling people to turn lights off VIA television seems a little lopsided. The level of misinformation out there about environmental issues is so severe right now that it's hard to tell if awareness is a positive thing. There's a good Bullshit! episode about the whole mess.

Catholics are known for their guilt. But let me tell you us Evangelical Protestants internalize some solid guilt too. I'm just not comfortable guilting people into things. :) I LOVE the environment. I am a big out doors person. I want people to love it too and I think people resent it when you make them care about something by force.

But at the same time, I think if it's guilt that motivates people, more power to 'em. As a Catholic, I am comfortable with guilt being a motivator for all kinds of things! What people need to do is look at the source of the guilt and address it.

Your 4 incandescent bulbs are kind of like my SUV - 19 or 20mpg is not good for an environmental Democrat, but I ride my bike most of the time, so I figure, eh, I might waste gas on occasion, but not compared to a Honda Civic driving in and out from the 'burbs every day.
