I have yet to hear a single point about what "global warming" initiatives adversely impact other "good" environmental causes or energy independence. I'll put one out there myself: carbon offsets. I think it's a bullshit idea that needs to die a swift death. "Sorry, you can't fire me. I purchased a 'good work offset' that allows me to slack off while someone in Uzbekistan does a good job today." Otherwise, the environmental keys are pretty much the same across the board: emit less, consume less, buy local (that includes energy). -- Michael --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "StrataList-OT" group.
