I disagree, there are ALOT of people that believe we are destroying the world and causing global warming, there are not ALOT of people that live their lives in a way that is consistant with their beliefs.

There are sources of electricity that do not come from fossil fuels. Where possible, it is best to use those sources rather than the fossil fuel sources. ..
Anything that is made of plastic, is made from oil, a fossil fuel. From what I can tell, every alternative energy "alternative" is not possible without first using fossil fuels somehow directly or indirectly.

Even a 110hp gasoline engine is inefficient as hell to move a 180 of skin. And oh yeah, the plastic that the car is made of to make it light so that it is fuel efficient.:jointsmile:

There aren't any easy answers for sure, and I believe that we should be looking for the next best thing, and that we should always strive to be better. I loath the fact that people would try to tell me the world is going to end due to mankinds use of fossil fuels, I just personally believe it is rubbish. Again, it makes me suspicious when people or groups rely on this kind o a tactic to prop up their argument instead of facts. I am not directing that at you Dragon at all, I am referring to the news media and politicians. I know you believe what you are saying, and respect you for standing by your beliefs, I just happen to believe that you are wrong. I would still burn one with you, in an environmentally friendly way of course!
