Negative Environmental Impact of Pets

LOL! So we're full of ourselves if we try to reduce our impact on the planet. I guess using that logic, polluting is a selfless, humble act then.:D

Nothing wrong with trying to "minimize your impact", just don't be be so full of yourself to believe that if you choose plastic over paper or drive a Priuss the ocean levels are going to fall and it's going to be cool in Vegas in August.. Perhaps if you use the "right" light bulbs you'll be able to walk on water too?:D

Right. It's much more humble to force everybody else to do those things. :D

Just classic, I loled, cried and then loled again.:D:bawl::D

It's a shame that the real concern people feel for our species breeding and consuming (and in effect polluting, pillaging and world altering) it self to death is being turned into such a profitable market by slapping the word "green" on things at random and charging more them.

I think you already know where I stand on that subject.:hiding:

Look if you want to do stuff to mimize your impact cool, but the fact of matter is even if every one who reads talk bass did it too, it wouldn't change the Climate. It might be the moral thing for you to do, you might live a more satisfied life if you do, but your not saving the planet. And the problem with this stuff is the self assured smug elitism it fosters. If you want to drive a Prius fine, just don't look at someone in an SUV with the attitude that they're immoral and you are special because you "care".
