Why don't I do something about it? I do, every day. There was a copy of a book laying around at work, I think it was called "100 Things You Can Do To Save The Planet" or something like that. I flipped through it realized I was already doing all of them, as a matter of course. Most of the people I know are doing most of them as well.

I suppose you want me to become politically involved and organize rallies or something? Would that really solve the problem? What should I give up to make time for this? My job? My family? Playing music? I can only take responsibility for my own waste products, and since I don't buy much of anything that includes or is wrapped in garbage, my waste is fairly light.

I have to agree with Kendall. Most of the serious problems facing the world right now are due to overpopulation. Guest, give us a call when you got that one solved, everywhere in the world. Oh -- you are, of course, a vegetarian?
