Your post is rather odd. You sitting there telling me how I should feel. And what I may think about this that or the other.

Tell you what I am... an environmentalist. Our lives have been made richer by environmentalists. And they all heard the same preaching you are now delivering. And they ignored it as it was all just minor pollution. Instead they tackled the big issues and the big players, leaving the minor ankle-biters their own puny little pleasures.

Are ya having fun?
