Not sure how guilt enters into it, and don’t see how trying to keep the planet clean and safe hurts society.

It’s true that there have been several cockamamie schemes in the name of saving the planet – Ontario Hydro is the king of them, generating “clean” power at outrageous prices that no one wants to buy – but it occurs to me that short sighted corporate and consumer waste is what got us into an environmental fix, and ignoring problems doesn’t make them go away.
