Umm...no.
You can't get your head around that the concept that I can be a skeptic about all the hysteria and still be pro-enviromental. That I can be pro-eviroment (I wonder if there is any other position); think that all these "green ideas" are great but skeptical in their practicality. I personally would love to see Alberta jump the fore in Nuclear technology and sell our massive coal reserves to fund it. But I also see the problems with that. I think that Gore and Suzuki and big fat capital H hypocrits who talk the talk but sure don't walk the walk. You can't conceptualize that I would think that way. Just doesn't register.
For you since I am a skeptic I am all for carrying on as usual and polluting. You have said as much.

I don't know what "radical ideas" it is you are afraid of, but if you think people who are concerned about the environment are willing to turn North America into a poverty stricken hellhole, you have been misled. We live here too.

Actually, I am sure they (you) are not. But if many of the ideas, even in this thread are implemented without a well thought out plan to their cause and effect will do exactly that. Did you ever consider what would happen to Alberta if oil revenue dried up? Every live in Alberta through the 80's? It was ugly!
Save me the "we can retrain them". That is such an easy out.
