To suggest that those who feel the Titan project is a bad fit for our area should stop eating beef, should stop driving their car, and should turn of their power is such poor logic. Of course these things pollute, of course we need to be more conscious and implement energy saving strategies, and in conjunction with those efforts we need to recognize that there are better industries to recruit to this region than Titan. Look, just because you have had a problem with your weight historically, for example, you don't give up...you start making changes and you incrementally improve what was/is an unhealthy circumstance. That's what we do with our environment...we begin to change our unhealthy habits. He have to start now and we do it by declaring loudly that a cement factory on the banks of the Cape Fear River is a very bad idea.
