The Caveman Picture source: Fatih YILDIRIM
It started when Colleague A wanted to buy a car. He was considering a Honda Civic Hybrid as he claimed he wants to help the environment. Colleague Q argued that if A truly wanted to help, he shouldn't buy a car at all(and also to quit smoking :p) But A argued that human needs to progress but just have to do so more efficiently to minimise the harm done on our earth. Q felt progression will definitely affect the environment and both cannot co-exist, citing that if China and India are to become more developed, they will only leave more carbon footprint on the environment.
So is Q being an extremist? Can progression and protecting the environment co-exist? Should environmentalist and people who cares about the environment live like a caveman? Makes me wonder how do those hardcore environmentalists live...
