I know it goes for both parties, nothing new there. But it's always interesting when someone tells you how to live your life, but doesn't live theirs that way. This includes everyone from democrats to even some priests and pastors. The ones currently spouting off the most crap about saving our planet from certain doom right now are mostly democrats, the media and hollywood. Show me anyone in those three groups who are actually doing something about it in their personal lives, besides driving a Prius when the cameras are rolling. Flying around in private jets to attend parties all over the world isn't exactly decreasing their "carbon footprint".



Sure, it's called the evening news.

I cant/wont disagree with anything you have written. Sounds like you and I are on the same page, just starting from opposite ends. I was under the impression you were discluding other parties from your perspective - which you arent.

I think its a serious issue we need to try and head-up while we can. I work for GE and we are always striving to make things more eco-friendly, so it rubs off in personal life. I have been trying to be more self-aware of things I can change. Nothing crazy, just small items. I dont doubt Mr Gore may be swelling the issue for press, but I definitely think we are/will be facing a major issue if changes are not made.
