Common Sense from a Naked Man: Global Warming

Forget about Glenn Beck and Al Gore.
Even forget about Karl Rove and Sheryll Crowe.
It makes no sense to me why people spend more time fighting over "who is making things up" than they do addressing the actual subject.
Both sides need to settle down. Get off the party bandwagon and move forward their initiatives without insulting others. That goes for both sides.
But here's what I don't get - and I'm not siding with one side or another (OK, I am, but I'm not going to shove it down anyone's throats). I'm just saying:
What's wrong with doing things to help our environment?
Is it really that much of a hassle to recycle a soda can instead of throwing it out?
If you can drive a car that gets you better gas mileage and is more emmissions friendly, why wouldn't you?
If you had the choice between smog or clean air, what would you pick?
What is a better use of energy: blasting liberals and crazy environmentalists; or just ignoring them but maybe saying "hey, I'm going to start making sure that I walk the extra 10 feet in the office to get all of my recycalables in the proper bins instead of just throwing them in the trash."
While the "global warming" issue is a hotly contested issue right now, lets not lose site of the fact that there are other benefits to doing things like reducing emmissions and keeping our environment clean: health, cleaner cities, cleaner outdoors, and more responsible uses of natural resources.
Whether "global warming" exists or not...
That's all I'm saying - I don't know that you can really argue with that.

over specific principles, goals, and policies.
