Your choice obviously being to do nothing.
False assumption on your part. I do everything I can to be a responsible citizen who has the best interest of the planet in mind. I don't need to be lectured by hypocrites pretending to be the greenest animal on the planet. You are making ASSumptions that do your arguments no good there Sonart.

Suggesting that anyone who supports global warming should back up that belief by immediately moving into a cave and staying there misses the entire point that it's not necessary
I never suggested anything of the sort. You are introducing more extreme false arguments in a failed attempt to make your case again Sonart. I merely showcase the hypocrisy of the elites who try and tell me how to live when they are living lifestyle far in excess than I ever will. They probably create more damage to planet in one day's jet ride than I do in 10 years Their actions speak far louder than your suck up justifications for them.

Quote:
Number three, other "millionaires" are spending a great deal of money to reduce their home energy footprint
Al Bore's and John Edwards excuses for their excessive lifestyles that do more to harm the enviornment than I ever will in 100 years, are simply cop outs that have you, and other gullible greens, hypnotized into thinking they are the answer to the planet's problems. They are bigger contributors to global warming than I will ever be, so anything you accuse me of applies to them tenfold, no wait, one hundredfold..

You can spill all of the nonsense about carbon credits you want, but it doesn't make up for the damage they do to the enviornment in their excessive lifestyles. You fall for their "carbon credit" bullshit which is like saying one can gobble up all of the electricity they want so long as they support green production somewhere else. This is like saying you can eat all the food you want, become an obese slob, and justify it by contributing to UNICEF. This is feel good bullshit and I don't fall for it one bit.. You do, I don't, so be it.

The answer is to NOT live in 28 room mansions like Gore and Edwards do. And if they do, they should generate their own clean and renewable energy, but they don't do this. Whoever said that living in a cave is what is expected of them. Only people who take extreme defensive positions like you, when people like me, who have legitimate criticisms against your high priest of the enviornment, continues to harm the enviornment 100 times more than I do. You can't logically defend or justify the excessive energy appetite that Gore, Edwards,and Kennedy have, so you must try and redefine the argument by saying I expect them to live in a cave. That is a load of crap and you know it. I have a legitimate criticism, and you use extreme straw dogs in a failed attempt to refute it, and it simply doesn't apply. Nice try though.

One answer is to build wind generating farms in Nantucket Sound over and above Ted Kennedy's objections that it will spoil his view from the Kennedy Hyannis compound on Cape Cod. One answer for John Edwards is to live a less excessive lifetstyle by selling that mansion in NC and moving to a more reasonable home that fits a more green lifestyle for his small family. The answer for AL Bore is to practice what he preaches by using clean and renewable energy to power his lifestyle I don't see any clotheslines at his mansion. These people are hypocrites and when you support them, you become one also. Try thinking for yourself rather than being a parrot for the elites, you may find it is refreshing for a change, Sonart.
