Individuals should not be the main issue. Every individual could reduce our carbon footprint to 0 and made exactly that impact.
Industry puts 99.999% of the greenhouse gasses into the environment. That is where the attack HAS to begin & where the radical change must be made to start.
Al Gore, a hypocrite that owns a mine, giant non-green mansions and flies around in a private jet, is just selling guilt and nothing else. There is no logic to it.
It is not "liberal", against progress (quite the opposite), or against your nation to feel that industry must be responsible for their trash.
Even if you do not believe that this has to do with Global Warming, it is what is the right thing to do and is the first step in moving toward eliminating needless pollution and removing our dependence on foreign oil and eventually on oil and coal as a fuel source.

As surprised as you might be RR, I have been pushing that same line for years, and I agree with you 100%. If you missed my old posts on Global Warming, I am a scientist, and have worked on a project for years, that collects all sorts of climate data and other scientist's research, and I have argued for years that it does not matter if cleaning up our daily waste creation and energy usage actually has a measurable affect within our life-time, it is still worth doing. I would rather live on a cleaner planet, than a trashed one.
