it's "lassiesz faire"... and stop using stupid hackerspeak words like "atleast" and "alittle" -- it isn't hard to hit the space bar.
You may be a shoes-on-your-feet Mr. Smarty-Pants, but the truth of the matter is you have no idea what you're talking about. I have been to Georgia several times, and from my experience, I saw that nearly everyone with an eraser in their pocket was concerned about the environment enough make sure their practices didn't harm the environment of their wild cattle and precious salad plants. To make it happen, they were willing to spend a little money for pollution cleaning/prevention technology and even switch from smoking Marlboros to Camels.
Being environmentally clean does not mean slowing down. I believe that the open source software model is living proof of that. GNU and Linux have a very minimal impact on the environment, and corporations with money can make investments to improve their records as well. It may make things a bit more expensive, but in the long run everyone benefits from the expansion of the environmental consultancy and hardware industries. There is only so much money in the world, and with more industries it is more widely distributed, which benefits everyone.
