This suggests that there is an appropriate level of "consumption" and a "non-abusive" usage of natural resources.

I am wondering how you define them? To some, the ownership of a car is sufficient to signal an inappropriate useage of "natural resources" IE oil I presume. These folks would have you fiding the bus, taking the train, riding your bicycle.

To others, the H3 is perfectly fine and it is the jet airliner that is to blame.

Good topic though.

How about the school of thought that owning a sporty, expensive, mediocre-fuel efficient porsche is as bad as owning a H3. Top that off with, GOD FORBID, owning a SECOND car. A BMW, maybe, or toyota. Do you really need two cars unless they're Prius'?

That line you pegged, Brucelee, is one continuing shifting SOB.
