Having moved to a, in my experience at least, a low class area of Sacramento to care for my Mom, I still walk my dog every day. It is cold here in winter and many people are burning fires either because they like fires, but more likely to reduce the cost of their heating bills. So when i walk my dog I have to breathe in all of the smoke. I don't burn a fire because people down wind of me would have to breathe my smoke and the law says I can't go over and eliminate the people polluting me. Because the kind of thoughtfulness and consciousness that I have is rare, I have to suffer both ways, higher heating bills and unhealthy air. As a single individual there is little i can do to create socially conscious people, especially when it would cost them more money to be that way. That seems to block the only sensible way our of this, that nobody burn a fire willingly because they pollute their neighbor. Therefore it seems the alternative is socially responsible elitist law that tells people what they can and cannot do and limits their freedom to enjoy a fire.
By extension I think, on the horns of this and similar dilemmas, humanity will become extinct. I want what is my right even though I, multiplied 6 billion times, destroy the world.
We have met the enemy and it is the SELF.
Every problem begins and ends in US.
Only YOU can prevent forest fires as Smokey the Bear says.
What is your answer?

) is about the exact opposite of what you just described. Apparently, you haven't read the 600-page manual on Smokey that was released last year for his 60th anniversary. He's not as nice as he sounds on TV.
