One example comes to mind. Flow restrictors on faucets.
Supposing I'm washing the car. I need five gallon bucket,
half full of hot water and soap. If I half-fill the bucket
off unrestricted faucet, it half-fills in about a minute.
And suppose I half-fill the bucket on a sink that's got a
1.5 gallon per minute aerator, on it. It takes much longer
to half-fill the bucket. Now, for 10 bonus points, and one
letter grade increase. How much water was saved by using the
flow restricted faucet, and waiting several minutes to
half-fill the bucket?

And how much extra did that flow restricted faucet cost me,
to install?

My impression of the environmentalists is that they don't really care
about saving the environment as much as they want to impose
inconvenience, cost and restrictions on the rest of us. If we don't
suffer, we aren't attoning properly for our sins against the earth. In
case you think you haven't sinned against the earth, to them just
being human is enough. Sort of like original sin.

This is what you have been trained to opine. Your training has been
carried out by high-paid information marketers,hired by our corporate
masters. Our corporate masters want to keep on making money NOW, at
whatever cost to their grandchildren and the rest of humanity.

The environmentalists you are badmouthing are ethical professionals in
their fields. They make a fraction of the income earned by our
corporate masters and their well-paid marketing lackeys. I know you
will have a hard time believing that there are honest people who
really care about humanity, and who prefer to work in an ethical field
rather than make a fortune in the short run by peddling
disinformatiion.

These environmentalists -- to use your generic term -- are not
remotely interested in imposing on your credulous self "inconvenience,
cost and restrictions." What they ARE interested in, is calling
attention to the FACTS of environmental degradation, hoping that at
least some of us will become active in forestalling the destruction of
our environment before it is too late.

Louis V of France centuries ago said it most succinctly. The
philosophy of our corporate masters and their lackeys is: "Apres moi,
le deluge" = "After me, the flood". Basically, I get mine and f**k
you.

Thanks Higgs. I'm an environmentalist. I don't actually really want to
make life tougher for the Stormin Moron, and haven't as far as I can
tell. I've never seen a flow restrictor on anything other than a
shower head. It makes sense there, especially since I pay for water.

Actually, SM isn't a moron as far as I can tell. He sometimes makes
sense, but this isn't one of those times. I've bought several faucets
recently and none of them had a flow restrictor. I suspect, as you
pointed out, that he gets so much corporate "news" that he can't tell
reality from Fox anymore.

And, I'm not bashing all corporations - most do a good job providing
services to us, but plenty are multinational concerns (ie, no loyalty
to America) that are perfectly willing to hurt America if it benefits
their bottom line. Somehow the big super-PATRIOTS watching Fox don't
seem to realize this.
