responsibility</title></head><body>
<div><font face="Lucida Grande">Closing paragraph: "<font
color="#000000">Being a woman seems to correlate with a greater
personal investment in addressing climate change. While globally, 67
percent feel people we will have to make major lifestyle changes to
reduce the effects of global climate change, when that figure is
broken down by gender, women consistently agreed with that
sentiment at higher rates than men. In the U.S., for example, 75
percent of women agreed with the statement, 'To reduce the effects of
global climate change, people will have to make major changes in the
way they live. Among U.S. men, agreement was 57
percent.</font>"</font></div>

"Conservationists are unquestionably useful people. And among the
many useful services that they have rendered has been that of
dramatizing the vast appetite the United States has developed for
materials of all kinds."<br>
<br>
"But what of the appetite itself? Surely this is the ultimate source
of the problem. If it continues its geometric course, will it not one
day have to be restrained? Yet in the literature of the resource
problem this is the forbidden question. Over it hangs a nearly total
silence. It is as though, in the discussion of the chance for avoiding
automobile accidents, we agree not to make any mention of
speed!"<br>
