My problem with the whole 'green' ecological movement has already been mentioned, but bears repeating.
Those who advance a program of green, and limited consumption, recycling, and significant lifestyle changes for Americans, are not living the life they espouse. China, France, Brazil, etc all want the US to cut back on greenhouse gasses. Want us to slow use of coal, oil, etc. But - they are not advancing for their own people ahd country the same as they tell us to change.
Further, for all those who are telling us what to do, they have no interest in how it affects our lifestyle. All they care about is managing and manipulating people, and getting more power to control our lives through energy restriction.
From an aviation perspective, the fedguv has agreed to stop the use of 100LL(Low Lead) avgas since about 1986. The deadline keeps being pushed back because there are NO alternatives that are safe, reliable, and produce the same power as leaded avgas, burned in a slow turning piston plane. The greenies keep getting wins in court against the fedguv vs avgas, but the fedguv keeps changing the rules, and then the greenies go back to court again. We should not be burning leaded avgas in planes. It's not a good thing, but there's nothing we can use to replace it. Some day, some court is going to outlaw leaded avgas, and it will ground thousands of planes until a replacement is derived.
