I have no problem with people doing that. That's your choice. That's why a free market is great. I myself only do a few things, not because I believe in the cause, but because it saves money. But do most "green" people preach that it's what we should do to save the planet only do it to a point? If they were truly believers, wouldn't they hold off on that new 52" plasma tv as it uses more energy than a standard projection or lcd tv? Shouldn't they get rid of that electric can opener or battery-operated toothbrush? Shouldn't they install energy efficient windows and doors? And when they do, how do they dispose of the old one's without polluting the environment more? And shouldn't they not drive a car at all since even a hybrid still pollutes? Why not hold off buying that Prius and invest in a car with solar panels? If they are so concerned, why not lead by example instead of telling me what I need to do while they do the bare minimum and parade around as if they're so noble?
