You must hand it national leaders from the U.S. and western European states; they are experts at making hypocrisy a fine art. While preaching to their own population and the developing nations about the importance of going “green”, they institute policies that are actually counterproductive to their noble goals; they continue to build coal powered plants, develop and exploit fossil fuel mining in third world countries, mandate bio-fuels which have no positive impacts on the environment and drive up the price of food for the poorest of the poor, and continue to fool their own citizens about the waste of billions of their own currency on “green” projects that have already failed.
How long will we allow our “leaders” to preach to us, the individuals who pay the actual price for their follies? When will we stop believing that without better technology, the concept of achieving their nobility stated goals are nothing but hot air and a waste of valuable resources?
