Wheres the baselesslessness in THAT argument LOL.

Greedy.

So I take it that you are dumping every free dime of your money into "something renewable"?

If not, then you are greedy by your own standard.



I'm not perfect, but I do my part. What we do to our Earth is ridiculous. We wouldn't destroy our home but our planet is fair game. It's got to stop sometime before we get to a point that we can't get back from.

That's good. They need more.
Some people smart enough to know what is going on. It is those who care only about money who don't care how we give the world to our children that really makes me wonder how ignorant people can get.
