Even the most ardent conservative global warming "denier" is all for eliminating pollution and is thankful that the air is far cleaner now than in the 50s and 60s.

Pollution is a very tangible thing that can be easily measured and curbed through relatively painless measures. FAR FAR different than global warming.

Everyone in this thread, including some of the more conservative posters, agree that at least some regulation is good-it's not in a company's best interest to mind the environment on its own doing when there is no repercussion.

Everyone, that is, except for Zach. In his utopian society, industry can produce as much pollution as they want. It doesn't matter if that new plant built close to your house is polluting the air. They own the land, and are more efficient without environmental regulations. If you don't like that, then tough shite, pack up and move somewhere else, even though you were there first.
