This morning I'm listening to the Bill Carroll Show on CFRB and he's talking about global warming.
It seems Bill has the same attitude that I do; global warming is a problem but the Al Gores and David Suzuki's of the world are dreaming with their timetable for turning things around. And that's why Kyoto is a joke.
Carroll also made a point about the hypocrisy of the Green movement. People yell and scream and yap about the environment while pointing fingers at Conservative governments and big oil companies and then they turn around and break most of the basic rules themselves.
They leave lights on, they use air conditioners and they litter. All the grass roots stuff that has to be addressed before we attack those who are employing millions of people.
It drives me nuts when I see Christmas lights till burning in February, garage lights burning through the night, and tons of garbage at every off-ramp in the GTA.
Nothing, absolutely nothing is going to change until things change at the level where "we" can actually control change. At our level. The people's level. The level that doesn't need rules or legislation.
As we bolt towards the next federal election I'm preparing myself for the insincerity of what will be the number one issue, the environment. The Liberals and NDP will make it the number one issue to pressure the Conservatives, knowing that when all is said and done nothing much will change.
And the Conservatives as the ruling party will get sucked into it as nothing more than a defense mechanism, again knowing nothing much will change.
They all know nothing can change until the people change and from what I gather the people don't have time to give the environment anything but lip service. Insincere lip service.
