		<description>Isn&#039;t it a little too early to conclude that we have &quot;destroyed&quot; the planet?

We still haven&#039;t given Nuclear Power a chance.</description>

		<description>I think with everything like this, but with Earth Day especially, the more important part is what you do the rest of the year, no?

The times when I heroically threw myself in front of nuclear waste transports are over, but I&#039;m with a green, nuclear fee electricity provider, I still try not to be wasteful with either power or water. I live in the city, but I get a weekly veggie delivery from local organic farmers (including the odd fair trade banana).
I don&#039;t have a driver&#039;s license. I recycle, of course, and more importantly, I&#039;m trying to reduce the amount of stuff I buy in the first place, or try to get things used.
And yes, I do think not having kids (as opposed to suicide, really not funny) is an important contribution.</description>

		<description>@Tom Foolery, considering the post right after this one, suicide jokes aren&#039;t funny today. Thanks.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;but using birth control is the number one thing you can do to reduce your impact on the earth.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

If this is true, wouldn&#039;t suicide be one up on birth control?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;women dressed as witches threw birth-control pills into the crowd (no one was quite sure why)&lt;/blockquote&gt;

In this context, the parenthetical qualifier &quot;no one was quite sure why&quot; implies that somebody, somewhere, has an explanation for why dead fish were dragged through midtown in celebration.</description>

		<description>Although apparently Robertson&#039;s quote is from 1992.  Maybe Indiana feminists are psychic witches?</description>
