You posted that there's a worldwide environmental disaster unfolding (and it's all our fault) and our response should be hey, do whatever feels good...well I, for one, feel a lot better...

Of all of the problems that we face and would like to do something about, this is the most frustrating. There's absolutely nothing, NOTHING you as an individual, can do about it. You have no control or say so in the matter. It's why some folks don't fly...they can't stand having no control.
