I sent some other people there too. As I see it, though, we conservationists need to do preach a "thou shalt" rather than a "thou shalt not" message, and I think that means emphasizing as often and in as many ways as we can the very real joys to be found in (for example) creatively reusing thins, making things from scratch, growing one's own feed, making one's own beer, savoring smaller amounts of good food rather than consuming vast quantities of junk food, etc. In other words cast ourselves not so much anti-consumption as pro-creation... or something.

Conservation is our best first play, period.

Here in western Pennsylvania, they just broke ground on a new 25-turbine project which PA taxpayers will underwrite to the tune of $5.9 million per turbine - http://www.tribune-democrat.com/local/local_story_108231514.html Needless to say, this will do little to reduce our dependence on coal - nothing compared to spending the same money on tax breaks for builders and homeowners who emply simple conservation measures. But like the watch here, it's a symbol of our virtuous intentions. It says, "We can stop our hyper-consumption anytime we want!" Pardon me if I extend the analogy to industrial wind turbines.

But like the watch here, it’s a symbol of our virtuous intentions. It says, “We can stop our hyper-consumption anytime we want!”
