"What about that firms actions scare you so?" Nothing. My concern is the hypocrisy of the whole idea that we are polluting ourselves into oblivion. I grew up in the seventies and can vividly remember rivers catching fire, ozone alerts etc. Today there is hardly a whisper. Granted there are some still polluting, but we live in a much cleaner world today.
"Or are you one of those individuals who can't stand anyone who doesn't agree with you?" I can find just as many scientists who would debunk the theory of man causing global warming, however only those that preach the end of the world get press. If you have reasoned arguments, please list them, or did I miss something?
"What they are doing can't hurt, so what's the harm?" Lets say theorectically they have purchased all the carbon emmission credits. How do we heat our homes, get to work, manufacture without any energy that emits CO2? The harm would be higher energy costs for all including poor people. Higher prices for anything manufactured.
Thanks for the opportunity to reply.
