SO much really you mean many are NOT DOING ENOUGH! Some are selfish and are careless.

Whenever you don't get a bug up your panties about the environment, Linda calls you selfish and heartless. It's just a thing.
It's unclear above, however, what she wants me to be "doing". The Arctic, CTV breathlessly claimed, was warming at "double the rate" of everywhere else. Ignorant enviro-weenies always fall for this. And yes I mean literally always because at this point every part of the planet has apparently started warming at double the rate of every other part and we need to invent a new mathematics to describe it and/or travel faster than light.
The global warming calculus, meanwhile, hasn't changed a bit since a friend of mine coined this response in the mid-90s:
- The planet isn't actually warming up
- Even if (1) were false, we aren't the cause of it
- Even if (2) were false, it's not worth the cost to stop it
She can live a pathetic zero carbon lifestyle if she likes (for those keeping score, we used to call it "poverty") but I am willing to fight to the death to continue living my life with my energy profile.
"Selfish" is just another word for "I'm looking out for me". I have to be looking out for me, people like Linda are trying to ruin my life. Careless is hardly the word. I don't care about her stupid bullshit, but that's because I'm an intelligent and otherwise advanced human specimen.
She's too stupid to tell me how I'm supposed to live.
