Re: Contradictions plague enviro movement, B.C. Views, April 25, 2012.

So, Tom Fletcher, what are you saying to me? It seems that you are telling me that the environmental movement is a sham. Do you think that it is a front for a dangerous group that is trying to B次元官网网址済reenwashB次元官网网址� our brains?

I am not a dummy (or maybe I am B次元官网网址� IB次元官网网址檓 writing to you as if you could possibly hear me).

I am tired of the bickering. ItB次元官网网址檚 your planet also.

Maybe you even have children, or grandchildren. And yes, B次元官网网址渢heyB次元官网网址� have convinced me that the planet and the human race are at risk.

So even if itB次元官网网址檚 a long shot, IB次元官网网址檇 like to see some attention to that detail. I think it matters that we donB次元官网网址檛 seem to have learned the lessons of the oil spills.

Do you think that they did nothing? Do you think that the oil companies have our best interests at heart?

Do you think that the status quo is the only way to go to be able to achieve financial stability?

I am not particularly concerned that you voice these opinions. I agree with you that there is a public relations war being waged. It makes a difference to me what you think, since a great many people seem to agree with you.

My point is simply that I am tired and saddened by the seeming impossibility of reasonable debate, leading to reasonable action that would benefit us all.
