Problem is we like to pollute.
We drive SUVs and other gas guzzling cars. We drive instead of using public transportation that uses less gas.
We keep our houses extremely warm. Many people overheat their houses.
We use air conditioning when we really don't need to. We fly when we don't need to. We overconsume when it comes to energy. That is one of our national flaws.
Increasingly, I see young people in Los Angeles riding bikes and walking. It's healthy, and they are helping the environment. I wish I could do more. I want to leave a world with clean air, clean water and a livable climate for my grandchildren. It makes me sad when people raise foolish questions and refuse to do the minimal amount of research and then accept the undeniable truth that research proves. Really sad.
