Because not everything that is grey can be undone and when it gets too dark it is too late. Just the nature of how most of humankind, governments, groups of people react. It is too hard.
An individual claims one's personal increment is important and must be allowed, as many others will do too, and that one's own part was not the cause of the total negative impact and is absolutely needed. Every year for more than a century there has been environmental pollution and resultant damage, but each increment was not the issue, but the sum of increments is a big disaster. We see so many examples that society/mankind is not able to "unroll" enough of the increments . I expect human nature to be the same on a small scale, here in Lincoln. Once the damage of an increment becomes "the new normal", memories fade of what was lost, and it's easier to forge ahead yet another increment, because " it too has so little impact". So I disagree wholeheartedly with allowing the proposed incremental changes. Because of many real aspects of Nature and human nature, I believe changes will become irreversible.
