Green Greed and a great blog // March 28, 2008
In the new world of "Support Battalion" I find that I have a lot more time to read than I ever thought I would. Indeed, I have rediscovered the "non-required-for-some-degree-non-fiction" book. Last week I finished, "Making Globalism Work" - that was streaching. You know, you need to read a book that streches you from time to time. I certainly did not agree with the all the conclusions the author came to but I certainly can see a different side to the whole globalsim debate now. After a heavy read on global economics - one needs a rollicking good tale, I chose "Vagabond" about the Hundred Years War by Bernard Cornwall. Ahh....
In the mean time, Check out this article in the Washington Post entitled, "Greed in the Name of Green." I loved it! I found it by reading this commentary on it at the Sojo blog. Man, if keep reading this stuff I'm gonna end up some kind of peace-loving liberal... or something...
Maybe I'll just settle for independent. And a Christian. Maybe no tags at all. mmm, wouldn't that be nice...
Who knows.
Enjoy the article - I did - its wickedly caustic. My favorite...

If Al Gore has taught us anything, it's that environmentalism isn't really about saving the environment. It's either a marketing ploy (for businesses), a way to assuage personal guilt at being a closet consumptionist (for individuals), a campaign issue (for politicians) or a reason to control individual behavior (for the government).
