Global warming and your neighbors

June

Often when I write about global warming, I get some variation of this response: John Edwards has built an enormous new house, Ted Kennedy opposed windmills off the Massachusetts shore, all Democrats are hypocrites.

It puzzles me. Whatever you think of John Edwards’ new house, and I know nothing about how energy efficent it is or isn’t, or of Ted Kennedy’s opposition to the windmills off Cape Cod, why would that affect what you do?

This isn’t a game of gotcha.

If you think global warming is a problem, you should do something about it. Who cares what someone else does?

This is where you live.
