[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am tired of it because there are so many posts on this forum where people flag how moral and virtuous their priorities are by saying something like:

"We make $500,000 a year but clothes, cars and houses mean nothing to us--we buy everything secondhand and sometimes look like homeless people.  We do make sure to spend at least $50,000 a year on travel, however."

They then add, "Its all about priorities."[/quote]

Ruining the environment is you main one. Jet fuel and pollution from travel is disgusting [/quote]

"I forgive my own bad habits but judge yours," in other words.

We can all do better but until we have a coordinated government response we are not going to fix the climate problem. You foregoing air travel while doing whatever the heck you do - live in a big house, use air conditioning, have kids, drive a car, eat meat, buy new clothes, keep your grass instead of turning your lawn into a meadow, etc - is fine for yourself, but these individual choices are not adding up to an actual response to the climate crisis.

Go ahead and try to be good! I am trying, too. But OP moving to Florida or not will not be the thing that determines whether our earth bakes into a lifeless husk.[/quote]
