Your people will never care is silly -- People care about a whole lot of things to different degrees --- Just most of us aren't out worried about a bunch of freakin plants instead of caring for our spouses, children and those around us as our first priority!!!!!!!!!!!!

If david suzuki was talking about tulips, you might have a point. Unfortunately for you and your argument, people are not more important than Water, Air and the delicate ecosystems we rely on for our existence.
Please, illuminate me as to how the loss of east and west coast fisheries, the logging industry and prairie agriculture won't harm the common man as much as some environmental policies designed to make these industries sustainable for the future?
