What if they’re wrong?
I was talking with a business associate the other day and a discussion about the environment and politics came up.
He said he had heard John McCain respond to a question about global warming and what his beliefs were. In a nutshell, the Senator supposedly responded with the idea that if we’re wrong about global warming and we’ve taken all sorts of steps to reduce our dependency on foreign oil, we’ve cleaned our air and waterways, so what? Why is that a bad thing?
And quite honestly, he’s exactly right. Whether you believe in global warming or not, what’s wrong with being more environmentally conscious? You don’t have to be a “tree hugger” or fanatical GreenPeace nut job, just be more conscious of your environment and the impact you have on your surroundings.
