"I think we can all agree pollution is bad. All Go Green initiatives are to pollute less, what is the problem? " DrBombay-- You're right, we can all stand on the common ground that pollution is bad. In and of itself, there is no problem with the notion of polluting less or going green. And it's genuinely good to see the environment getting the kind of attention that it should have been getting all along. Where the concerns are coming from--is the possibility that our efforts (consider the sheer billions of dollars spent on carbon reducing initiatives) aren't actually doing squat to reduce the pollution that is behind global warming. This allegation is upsetting because there are entire industries that are profiting off of what could be a complete and total waste of our efforts. Meanwhile, there are other unquestionable dangers going largely neglected by our attention, time, energy and money.
