Has anyone paused to think that maybe we are actively becoming carbon neutral? My point is in how online technology has changed my physical behavior - I connect with people online instead of driving to see them (sad, but true), I check prices and do my shopping online which again avoids driving, I use telecon and video-conference at work so that I can work from home instead of driving or flying to another location, I send an email (or write a blog entry) instead of mailing a letter which requires both paper and fuel to deliver....see what I'm saying? Gore acts like we are in a perpetual landslide toward oblivion, but technology has already begun to take a bite out of carbon....but of course, Al invented the Internets....
