Forests are being clear-cut to make room for farming corn and palm oil.
Compact flourescent light bulbs are filled with very dangerous chemicals such as mercury, contain a lot of plastic (made from oil), and use more energy to make.
Ethenol emissions from vehicles have been found to be very bad for your health. There are simular concerns about biodiesel, but those studies are still ongoing.
The batteries in hybrid cars are filled with dangerous chemicals that we cant fingure out what to do with.
Our intentions are good... but it seams like we are doing more harm then good with our current environmental movement.
Should we go back to good, clean unleaded gasoline and incadescent lightbulbs?
