Green -- and Uninformed

There are two types of people who consider themselves environmentalists. First, there’s the majority who are concerned about the plight of human life on earth if, say, global warming actually came to pass. And then there’s the minority, who really don't care about the fate of humanity on earth, but are instead concerned with accelerating its destruction. They don't care, for example, if agreements essentially outlawing the production of oil by 2050 destroy the benefits to human life of civilization as we know it. They don’t care if the restrictions on further drilling for oil cause oil prices to accelerate and eventually create severe instability on the entire planet. "Tough," they imply, or, in a few cases have expressed outright.

Do You Really Need "Closure"?

Everybody talks about "closure." A vague (but popular) concept, it basically means seeking a neat, painless ending—while hoping for the cool, detached perspective of time. Unfortunately, time cannot be rushed. Closure is something that happens; it can't be pushed or forced. Most often, people seek “closure” after an emotional break-up. They tell therapists or friends, “I need to talk to him/her. I want closure.” Which, when translated, almost always means is, “I want to make sure the relationship is really over. I hope, somehow, that it can be rekindled. By talking to him/her again, I can know for sure.”
