Your comment is pretty much on point. It's unfortunate, but true, that most of the environmental hand-wringing is coming from people who live /worse/ lifestyles for the environment than those they are indicting, and there's definitely a cultural elitism aspect as part of it as well. Somewhat ironically, there is a strong correlation between the type of people who hand-wring about the environment and opposition to nuclear energy despite it being safer and more efficient than any other form of energy generation currently. It'd be nice if people aligned their principles and policy positions with what they say, but practicing what you preach has rarely ever been in vogue.
