I can't speak for Druidus, but I would rather we be responsible humans instead of just taking and destroying everything in our path. Live with nature instead of dominating and destroying her.

It would be great if we could co-exist, but it just can't happen, we colonize.

Of course, we can decrease the destruction and look for alternatives, which is what we are doing. The air is much cleaner now than it was in the 70s. I think things are improving rather than worsening.

You're right, it can't happen.... not with that outlook anyway. I'd rather think that since we are a part of nature that we could find a way to live in harmony with it.... but call me crazy...

Have any of you been up to the arctic slope lately, and seen what is happening in the areas we are discussing here? While there is some wildlife, for the most part, it is desolate with nothing but tundra. There is a lot of sea life, but they have been cohabitating for quite some time with the platform out there. The area we are discussing drilling is huge, and I don't believe the drilling will create as many problems as some of you believe. At least it hasn't yet. The real problem comes with transport. There could be some issues there and a responsible attitude and forethought can prevent another Exxon Valdez from happening. We can do this, and do responsibly to avoid damaging the environment. It has been happening on the north slope for year.

Crazy crazy girl you. =D

I don't think there's much more to discuss, at least not from me. *white flag*

Eerwed, I live on the tundra. Do you know where I am? Iqaluit, Nunavut. There are no trees, anywhere on this island, and we are the 3rd or 4th biggest island in the world. I understand the ecology of the tundra. Oil drilling will destroy it. Take my word for it. If you are disinclined to do so, research for yourself. (I know you live in Alaska, but you don't live in the true tundra. The true tundra is my backyard. Caribou have wandered the streets! There was a wolf in the playground! )

Profit, profit, profit, what we need is a Green Democratic Socialism. Maize, Feathers, Master Vigil, No*s, NetDoc, or Retrorich get my vote on that one. They'd do a hell of a lot better than the current "leader". I don't have any argument left here. You see, the very act of trying to express the fragility of the Earth has shown me the futility of trying to do so. It has depressed me. Good day.

Quite a few people could do a better job than the current leader, Kerry wasn't one of them.

But really I give up.

Well, I can't argue with that. Well, I could, but my foot would be lodged deeper in my mouth if I were to continue.
