3) They won't give anything up. The cost of energy is more important than global warming.

I think it is funny too how faddy even belief in global warming and feigned care for the environment is becoming. I mean, literally over the course of 2-3 years we have gone from "global warming, what?" to "global warming, yeah that´s gonna screw us over". In a lot of ways I feel global warming has become the new excuse for things that go awry in the world. Especially funny to me are the people who do claim to care and are worried, but do not think about or make any lifestyle changes.
