It seems there's this whole big denial thing going on because people hear the 'big' news about global warming and the like but don't want to have to change things in their 'small' world. Like, a lot of people would be "Well, a big four wheel drive is envorinmentally unsound, but I feel safer on the road, which has more direct impact on my life", or "Well, I could take a coffee cup to work, but then I'd have to wash it, and I'm busy", or "Well, even if I do reduce my disposable waste consumption, my neighbours are still going to put their cans of special brew in the bin, so what's the point?"
What do you think?
