Eco-saviors claim that biofuels will solve our oil dependence issues, yet Ethanol has sent the price of corn through the roof. Many in the world’s poorer nations starve because they can’t afford what use to be an affordable staple. But as long as we feel better about ourselves, screw the Third World (again, see DDT).
The eco-friendly Toyota Prius was supposed to be the end-all-be-all when it comes to green commuting. However, we now know that making a Prius causes more environmental damage than manufacturing a Hummer. But as long as we feel better about ourselves, screw the facts.
They now claim that the use of one of our greatest inventions, the light bulb, may kill us at some point down the road. When that too is proven wrong, don’t hold your breath for apologies from environmentalists.
It was all about good intentions. That’s all that matters.
“I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence.” - Frederick Douglass
