No Impact Man: "Think Enhancement, Not Sacrifice"

Back to blog

God forbid we would change our waste-producing ways!

Warm and Fuzzy...

Let's do nothing as the planet is burning and people are starving and on the verge of climate wars... that sounds like a great solution!

Let the neighobur do all the eco-sacrifices so you can drive your Hummer!

God forbids Occidentals would reduce their carbon footprint on the Earth!

Nero played violon as Rome was burning. Occidentals drive prick-up trucks, eat meat, heat up monster homes as the Planet and all life on it slowly dies...

Nice Article...

"Warm and Fuzzy Green" - not the militant, dogmatic, hysterical, intolerant variety Environmentalists typically spew and spout.

Life style changes can be positive, both environmentally and personally. And, that's nice, but it will have only negligible effect on the earth. Switching to nuclear power and hydrogen fuels is the long term, effective solution. Wind and solar are impractical and insufficient - and we can not "conserve" ourselves into the future.
