Making rules and taking steps to make our world a better, safer place to live and work in is a lofty goal that we should always seek to develop. However, is there or should there be a limit on what we control?
As the red ink flows in corporations across the globe, companies and governments are wondering if they should or can continue the green initiatives as they had hoped. The United Nations is putting together a conference to meet next week in Poznan, Poland. The agenda is to come up with goals to further reduce emissions and other green projects.
I expect that this next year will be filled with arguments about global warming. Is it man-made and therefore controllable? Is it natural? Or, the biggie, is there really any global warming?
Being good environmental stewards today is defined as reducing the pollution we create, saving energy, reducing carbon footprints, etc. The point that is so frustrating to industry and consumers are the penalties we are forced to endure for being successful stewards.
Speculation from many experts seemed to suggest that a change in
administrations in the United States would bring a change in
environmental policy no matter which one was elected.
