I don't care about the environment
    #7628036 - 11/12/07 09:28 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

I'm so tired of all the I love the environment crap. All this bandwagon organic crap. If I really cared I would do something to change my habits. I would try to live in this world and respect the bounty it provides, but I don't care enough for that. I'm just going to truck around in my 12mpg car and not-recycle likes there's no tomorrow. I don't really care about the environment. I wish more people would admit to it. Preaching is comfortable, but change is not.

who said you have to preach anything, one way or the other? i don't quite understand why you would maintain such destructive habits though.

i mean seriously, how fucking hard is it to toss your bottles into a recycling bin instead of a trash can? and wouldn't it be economically beneficial to yourself if you drove a car with better gas mileage? i understand if you do heavy duty work and need such a piece of equipment, but just driving around a beast like that for every day commutes and leisure it's just retarded.

you don't have to preach anything to anyone. and go ahead, fuck up everything around you. no one is going to stop you. but that in no way justifies your senselessly destructive behaviors, and this weird high-and-mighty attitude you get from behaving with complete disregard for the environment and those around you is quite disconcerting.

'eh, i don't overly care about the environment either. I live in a city, there is no environment here.

It's all cost/benefit analysis for me. I recycle, because it's not an incovienance. My truck is a 4cyl, so gas isnt that bad, but that's just a coincidence. It's all about convienance for me, because i'm a selfish american.

I actually care about the environment, It's just that I get so frustrated with all the luke warm approaches to making a change.  I Felt  real guilty about it and decided to confess.  So yea I'm being angsty;), but I see a need to look at my own values for what they are, nothing without action.

I don't get where you guys think caring about the environment is synonymous with being an adult or mature. If you care about the environment, quit being a fucking cry baby pussy, and get a goddamn vasectomy as I did.

Grow up kids, and look at things with a realistic approach on life, you are nothing but a pathetic, worthless human. Want to talk about ego problems, you somehow have the ability or knowledge of a way of reducing the human footprint, I don't think so.

Comfortable. Safe, perhaps? Outcomes assured, lifestyle provided?

A key cause of the fall of the Mayan civilization was excessive consumption and environmental degradation of which there is plenty of supporting evidence. The Mayan process of creating the lime stucco cement that covered their temples required a great deal of energy. One calculation estimates that it would take five tons of jungle forestry to make one ton of quick lime. It would have required nearly 650 hectares (1,600 acres) of every single available tree to cover one building with lime stucco. Epic construction was happening, creating devastation on a huge scale.

Environmental collapse is one of the leading causes of the fall of the empire, along side endemic warfare, over population, and drought. (sound familiar? Is it unfair of me to assume you don't get into climate change and the potential for widespread drought?)

A kingdom seems to have been established in Copán in 159. It grew into one of the most important Maya sites by the 5th century. Large monuments dated with hieroglyphic texts were erected in the city from 435 through 822.
The area continued to be occupied after the last major ceremonial structures and royal monuments were erected, but the population declined in the 8th century - 9th century from perhaps over 20,000 in the city to less than 5,000.
By the time of the Spanish conquest of Honduras, the site had long been overgrown by rainforest.



The whole environmental issue is a matter of perspective. Mayan culture? Blip! They're gone. The smaller culture in Copán, what, 600-700 years? Blip!

The real question is, with the knowledge we have accumulated, after all we have been through and could yet go through as a species will we allow ourselves to go Blip! in a big, bad, totally predictable and anticipated way?

Or will we strive to find another way and grow, evolve into that? If you're so intent on closing the book on this society wouldn't you want to embrace the search for another way as it is? This is about quality of life here and now and for everybody and natural resources and environmental issues are at the heart of that situation.

no, but caring about the environment and modifying your daily habits to be a little less destructive is acting responsibly, and often times responsibility is synonymous with maturity.

you don't think that people working together en masse towards producing less waste or reducing emissions or reducing fuel consumption will have an effect on anything? that's just idiocy. it's a numbers game. one single individual will not make a difference. 20 individuals will not make a difference. but if an entire nation recycles, you cannot deny that there will be a relatively large, noticeable difference.

i'm in no way proposing that everyone should be anti-consumerist smelly hippies, because lord knows i love buying shit as much as the next consumerist american. but that doesn't change the fact that even taking small inconsequential steps throughout our daily lives WILL reduce the so-called human footprint if the numbers are great enough. it may not be a significant difference that will save the world, but it's a start, isn't it?

being optimistic about conservationism isn't a sign of immaturity. acting like you don't give a fuck so you can seem "hard" is.

I gotta get up early for work in the morning so I don't have the time to properly address this sentiment, but your pride in your ignorance and defiant resignation does not excuse you from being ignorant. There's plenty that can and could be done. Use your imagination. Everything needs to start with an idea.

It might take some time to accomplish major goals and get a handle on the situation, you see, and getting the ball rolling just by talking about it might be enough, if you can bring yourself to conceive of just that.

The way I see it you guys are the ignorant fools.

Fags have been jumping on this train you guys are riding for years, and what difference is it making. With this many people on the planet, living the way we do, there is nothing any of us can do to prevent this planet from deciding that it wants most of us gone. You do things to pollute the environment as well, and so do billions and billions of other people, regardless of how much you try not to, the planet is still going to go south. Maybe you guys can "bring yourselfs to conceive" that being outspoken about shit like this is fucking annoying and pointless. I also like nature, I drive a car that gets 32mpg, I eat "caged free" eggs I get from my mothers chickens, I recycle my beer cans. What more do you do to save this fucking planet? Nothing, you actually contribute more by wasting the electricity required for you to come post on the shroomery, to fucking cry like pussies.

Fucking, how ignorant is it to believe that by eating cage free eggs you're saving the planet.

who the hell ever made that claim? ever? you're just grasping for straws. the purpose of eating cage free eggs is to support the farmers that expend the extra effort and costs in raising chickens that way so as to discourage the abuse and maltreatment the animals suffer otherwise. but no one has even mentioned that here because it's irrelevant.

no one is "hopping on bandwagons" here for any reason other than simply being conscious of the effect we have on the world around us. and no one is "preaching" either. every post here was made in response to another post or the main thread.

kudos to you for taking those steps. but why the fuck do you feel like anyone is attacking or preaching to you? your defensive pissy attitude is completely unwarranted.

Ah but you've missed lots of this trb. The elite humanitarians have been attacking and preaching bullshit. My pissy attitude is warranted.

Suddenly eating caged free eggs is synonymous with having a soul, and spending your days throwing around wrong and pointless information about the harm humans are doing to the environment is the definition of maturity.

Quite a bit. Part of the reason you are able to think that nothing has been done is because so much has been done, preserving things to the state they are in now. Improvement must always be a perogative. What's wrong with a 'bandwagon' that encourages aspirations?

In 100 years everyone alive will be dead. Complete turnover. Environmental issues have a variety of interacting scopes. On the small, local scale many places are alright. Other places need to stop making more fucking humans. Besides, it devalues us all, right? The more people there are the less something about each of us matters.

You're so defeatist, over before you've started. 100 years man, stop having fucking babies is a plan. Yeah, I do pollute. It's a condition of the times, for sure. It's tough to travel light, being in the land of plenty. The planet will be fine. Again, the issue at hand is the quality of life overall in a technologically advanced society such as we have now, where plenty is possible. Scaling ourselves to what is sustainable, and stretching what sustainability means, is the challenge. Being outspoken in favor of this is the first step to making it actually happen.

I also like nature, I drive a car that gets 32mpg, I eat "caged free" eggs I get from my mothers chickens, I recycle my beer cans. What more do you do to save this fucking planet? Nothing, you actually contribute more by wasting the electricity required for you to come post on the shroomery, to fucking cry like pussies.




This reflects a larger problem with the perception of the environment and is a symptom of the larger, environmental movement as a whole. While I'm not really sure how cage-free helps the environment (besides the hugely wasteful nature of factory farming, part of hte problem), eating chicken is better than beef. Beef is hugely wasteful of resources, it is one of the greatest luxuries there is. Cut back. Eat cage-free chickens instead. Public transit? Fewer cars? Alternative fuels? What might our cities look like?

The scale of change that will be required is bigger than you will conceive of. Or maybe you can see it, but refuse to believe that humanity has it in itself to rise to that level.

Think of the transition from medieval farming communities, up to horse-and-buggy, to the fully fledged sprawling industrial revolution that transformed the landscape and refined itself to where we are now. Are you with me? Right now, we're at the medieval stage again and the transformation must be on the order of a second industrial revolution. Embrace it.

That's all you man, I dunno.
