People continue to deny global warming is a mankind influenced phenomena. They expend an amazingly large amount of energy passionately refuting any argument to the contrary. The thing they have going for them is time. It is impossible to prove that the current global warming crisis isn’t just part of a natural cycle. I guess if a person chooses, they can pretty much justify any choice no matter the consequence.Sometimes we are so tied up in our personal convictions that we lose sight as to what is logically the correct moral choice. Whether or not global warming is influenced by mankind’s decisions, the world we leave behind will be a reflection of our values and what is left will ultimately be our legacy.
We all should be consuming to live, not living to consume.
“I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet, raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak.” - Bill Watterson (b. 1958)
