Well reasoned and well said
I agree that many stand in the no smoking section, to
follow your example, and assume noone else is
bothered. There are some companies in the US that
moved to Mexico about 15 years ago and did just that
with harmful results. That was greed. Most people
aren't n
To get back to what I think was the original thought
on this subject;
Is it excessive greed that causes whole societies to
ignore that their pollution is causing problems
downstream or downwind, preferring to believe that if
they stay in the "smoking section" it does not affect
those in the non-s
I can't believe that you paint business men with such
a broad brush. You assume that becuase someone is

Profit is one of the greatest motivators there is.

I think there's an inherent problem with the whole idea of pollution
credits and the commodifcation of our entire environment. How have we
gotten to the point where we don't think it's absurd to charge rent for

the more afected by climate change are the citizens far awey the us, like
the ones afected by the mitch, or the starvation, on central america.
