[quote=Anonymous][quote]Ok, I'll engage the deflection. Her positions re: environmentalism are right. There is a reason other countries and some areas in the US are getting rid of single use plastics. Similarly, riding in SUVs are environmentally damaging. She may be annoying, a hypocrite, wrong in how she approaches the issues, etc. That doesn't mean she's wrong on the principle. [/quote]

Look just being alive hurts the environment so if I really want to protect the environment I should throw myself off a bridge and stop consuming resources. You can certainly argue that this correct on principle but very few people will go to this extreme. We all end up somewhere in the middle between throwing ourselves off a bridge and spending the weekend clubbing baby seals while burning coal in the backyard for kicks and giggles.

SIL has picked her list of things she will do to help the environment and other people have picked their list. She isn't right because she has chosen certain things and not others. [/quote]
