Well, yes.
Also, "don't shit where you eat" seems to me quite enough reason not to but stuff into the air that we breath and the water we drink. It all seems pragmatic rather than idealistic to me and I'm not sure why ther would be such resistance.

Chompy is right...partly
...that a large part of the issue is our dependence on oil, which is running out faster than we realise. If a politician admits "we're running out of oil" then the market goes crazy, idiots panic buy and traders make a fortune. The oil industry has a significant lobby clout too.

Are you suggesting that we should go out and panic buy oil?
I think you are.
