The same type of people screaming "save the earth" are the same ones advocating the expansion of human invention and progress these days. At least most hippies practiced what they preached. Either return to nature, or destroy it in the name of progress. You're not going to find a balance, and even if you could, you couldn't control the other 8 billion people and stop them from utilizing what you created in a non-destructive way.

You're the same type that would have been rolling their eyeballs when people were suggesting radium paint was potentially dangerous back in the day and calling them alarmists. Enjoy your diseases, disorders, and death, all while screaming CORRELATION DOES NOT EQUAL CAUSATION! Every single thing needs to be looked at closely, and massive on-going research into side effects should always be the paramount concern, not pseudo intellectual dismissal.
