So we are only to "deal with" the pollutants that don't inconvenience you?

I don't like the fact that the air is filled with toxins, which is why I moved closer to where I work so I could ride a bike when the weather permited and walk when the streets are too icy to allow safe bike riding. That's also why the next car I buy will be a hybrid.

When cleaning up a mess as big as the one we're in, you start where you can. To say "Shut down the factories and no more driving cumbustion driven vehicles." would be great, but impossible. To say "Stop blowing smoke at the person next to you." is a more realistic start.
