I don't
think that it really matters ifexists or not. The truth is that many humans, not just
Americans, are wasteful and have been for years. Whether the earth is simply going through
another era of temperature change or if we caused it takes away from the debate of what an
individual can do to be frugal with our resources.
As far as government
trying to force people to be environmentally friendly, etc., I think that that does more harm
than good. People, especially Americans, do not like theories being forced down their throats.
A more pragmatic approach to getting people to conserve is to focus on the positive. I know
that I tend to be turned off by scare tactics because politicians use them so often without any
logical support. So, if we want to encourage people to lessen pollution or use resources
wisely, we should offer methods that will save money (because everyone likes that!) and that are
relatively simple to enact.
