I share that attitude. I just say "energy-saving light bulbs", "CO2 footprint of my pizza for dinner" etc.
It would be easier business if global warming theory would not be corrupted
by political opportunism and mass hysteria. It gives it a bad name.

And its not that I would mind paying a little extra, however we are already paying enough, and now with our economy in shambles the boneheads dont seem to realize that every bill that costs the American Tax payer $ makes any chance of recovery take two steps back. Who in their right mind plans taxing whne the unemployment rate is heading to over 20%.

On the one hand the private household'S concern'S over the monthly budget available to it, are real and cannot be ignored. But on the other hand if thing sreally should become bad and time already is of the essence, we must weigh the stressed economical situation versus elemental survival.
And let's be realistic: since generations the politicians as well as most private persons silently expect the next generation solve the issues that we do not wish to touch ourselves during our life span. "Let
them fix it!" and "Wait for the economical growth start accelerating again!" are our most favourite mottos.
