We all know we're overdoing it. We drive cars with three times as much horsepower than they need to have, and drive them as if there was a trophy to be had. We heat like there's no tomorrow, we put out heaps of trash, we buy cheap stuff we know was manufactured using toxins in sweat shops, we buy the cheapest possible groceries even though they are covered in pesticides, and we applaud the development of GM foods and dubious pharma products. We know we're going to hell in a hand basket at this rate. We even know what it would take to avoid it, whom are we kidding? But if it came down to it, and policies were devised to ensure some restraint to make sure we don't find ourselves dry turkey one day, would you participate willingly? When I'm reading some of the postings' responses here, I can't help but feel that there is a hackle-raising lack of responsible people out there. Or are they all just kidding?
