The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Maybe get over the idea that human actions are needed in order to conserve the environment.

I mean, there are people out there who would destroy the environment if we just sat back and did nothing so.... Yeah gotta take action.

LOL, we've got to hurt animals by imprisoning them and charging tickets for people to ogle at them, because otherwise bad people will do bad things. I see.

You have no idea what I'm good or not good at. Nor could you from this very limited exchange. You just want to find a reason to dismiss what I've said so that you can remain unchallenged in your bubble where you're saving the world and other people are the problem.
