This reminds of a friend that worked in the oil patch - was adamant and railed about climate change, yet let his pick up truck idle all night in 30 below so he wouldn't get cold starting it up in the morning.....  When I asked him about a few of his contradictions in life style, he said "you're missing the big picture"..... Ha !  Reminds me of the do gooders jetting around in various forms air conditioned transport......
