It's "you're" :) Correcting that particular error is an obsessive
compulsive habit I have.

It's not so much the problem, as the attitude. I use computers and air
conditioning, but I don't take it for granted that it doesn't come with a
cost. If there was an environmentally friendly air-conditioner and a
normal one up for sale, I'd pick the enviro one every time. If petrol goes
up, I don't care, as I'm already opting for public transport or
car pooling.
I always hope that if a few more people think like that, then soon it will
be taken for granted that you must assess the environmental cost in
everything you do, and that will be something you *automatically* do. Not
something that is never even thought about ...
