Whenever you see "10 things you can do to save the world", they are always 10 things you can do in your "at home" life. But water, energy, and pollution created by corporations dwarfs what we can do individually. The biggest thing you can do to save the environment is ensure the company you work for is trying to save the environment.

Conservation is for the weak! Real men take what they want, and say the heck with everybody else. That is how George W. Bush makes this country great! You have to tell people what they need. Take the heathens in Iraq. They would just keep killing each other, and eating cow dung is we didn't bring them democracy. Now they can kill each other and eat red, white, and blue dung. It is the American way. God Bless this country, and to heck with conservationism.
