In short: it is not quite that easy. I am pretty far from being an environmental fighter, loving cars and owning far more of them then I actually need. But I live in a society (that would be the central parts of the European Union) where the environment is an absolute top topic and constantly debated. Thinking and acting in an environmentally friendly way is now forced upon us by laws and decisions from our governments.
In other words: Agreeing or not agreeing with you, with Al Gore or with Satan himself will not really make a difference. I can not choose to not be part of it. If my car fails the sniff test at inspection, I can not drive it. If I do not sort my garbage and put it in the right coloured bag in the right bin, the garbage truck will not empty the bins. Gas is now so expensive here and the subway so cheap that my car pretty much only moves during the weekends.
That is my reality. I can adjust, make the best of it, adapt to it and move on. Or I can fight it, which will ruin me and cause all kind of ****.

DING DING DING DING! Thats my ONLY interest in E85. POWER. Who gives a **** about fuel consumption? People cry about how much MORE fuel E85 uses.. Well DURR.... Thats like crying that your top fuel drag car uses more fuel than your station wagon.. Maybe thats because the drag car runs at a 1:1 AFR? 
**** the environment. Why should I let Some ***** *** seal or a ------y moose ******* bankrupt me in energy prices when I'm doing nothing more than trying to make a ******* living here??? I'd fly up there to Alaska and shoot those ******* myself if it'd get the drills in there to get more oil.
One thing I'll miss about my friends smoke screen pollution providing blown up miata... Driving next to the **** in their little gas-electric piece of ****..
Seriously, do those cheap ******* losers actually think they're saving the planet buying into this "green" gayness, then spending 40,000 ******* dollars on a "hybrid?" What a joke.
I like telling those people "Any portion of this planet you think you're saving, I'm destroying!" As I lay down a smoke screen from my exhaust.
Global warming is bullshit. Made up by Al Gore and his band of hippie ------ losers.
You don't find that a little interesting the article was written by someone who works for a ******* major oil company?? Granted most of the research I've personally done on Ethanol as a fuel gives pretty close to the same negative findings.

omg environmental debate.
so Jesus will fix global warming
or there is no global warming
or there is global warming
or it doesn't matter and you can just conserve energy anyway (to save money)
or there is global warming and you disagree and the earth will be very different in 50 years and the "hippie ------s" will give you the finger
or it's not just al gore but like 99.9% of scientists that agree humans have a serious effect on the climate (except not that ONE richard lindzen guy all the anti-global warming people quote because he's the only one who thinks it is a hoax)
wear whatever tshirt you want and dump your used motor oil into babies mouths or whatever.
