Wanting to clean the oceans and getting rid of all the tons of plastic that damages the environment, especially animal life, is not a liberal or conservative issue.

It’s what most decent people want.

Imagine thinking that caring for the environment that presumably your descendants will have to live in is somehow a negative thing tied to political ideology. I truly feel sorry for some of you people.

The environment was made political long ago. It is also a massive money item. Thinking it is somehow above such things is silly. Heck, scientists as about the biggest whores there are. Like any ***** they will tell thier Johns, grant donors, it is the biggest they have ever seen.

True. But using the issue to achieve hidden agenda items certainly is. The nexus for pollution long ago moved to the east, especially China and India. So why didn’t the environmentalists move with it? I will admit one good thing has come from the whole plastic garbage. Clemson had to give up its ballon tradition. It we beat them this year, I might vote green someday.

This is so ridiculous. It’s mind boggling that people even think this way. Dumbfounded.

I'm a conservative and an environmentalist. I have been an avid outdoors man since my earliest childhood memories of hunting, fishing, and camping with my father. He instilled in me principles of conservation like only taking legal game, and no more than you intend to eat or donate, and always leave a place cleaner than when you got there.

When I moved to the coast, I developed a love of deep sea and coastal sport fishing, and my passion for big game hunting has waned, but those principles still stick with me. I practice catch and release on sport fish, and only harvest category 3 table fare and above. I follow all regulations and comply with all laws, seasons, and bag limits. And the fastest way to never be invited back with me is to throw trash overboard. And I'm active in local conservation groups.

I think the political division stems from differing methods. Conservation stems from strict individual adherence to the practices like the ones laid out above, and one of the fundamental tenets of conservatism is conservationism.

There is a growing stigma within liberalism that implies activism equals conservationism. Speaking in generalities, many of the enviro-nuts from that camp tend to think the problem is just awareness, and that they need to convert other people to their way of thinking in order to be effective. They don't need to DO anything. It's everyone else that doesn't understand the issues and need to be educated. And so often times their efforts are directed towards funding their awareness campaign than to the actual cause. These are the types of people who will hold a rally intending to raise awareness, yet totally trash the venue and leave.

Miami, being one of the sport fishing hotbeds in the country and also one of the most beautiful places to be in the world, is uniquely and directly impacted by anything related to the sea, and doesn't really fit with the general theme above. But across the nation, this is a pretty accurate assessment, albeit a broad generalization. Liberals who have never seen a tree that isn't federally protected preaching conservation practices to conservatives who have practiced sustainable land and wildlife populations for decades.

What makes this uniform project not fit into that generalization, is that they recognized a problem, identified a solution, did something about it, and are now simply trying to raise funding for continued conservation and research efforts. This is how it's supposed to be done, and as a conservative, I am 100% on board with this.

That’s all good and great, but you failed yourself and your arguments every time you mentioned “liberals” - as if there was a conservative “correct” way and everything else fell into some monolithic “threat”. Especially, without acknowledging -“on the other side…”- that economic concerns over the environment/people is what causes oil spills, superfund cleanups, and off-shore drilling (issues that conservationists should ostensibly care about). Or just greed or negligence.

This is one of those is/ain’t issues. You believe in clean air and water and decent protections for some of the animals or you don’t. And, how you vote on those issues are more telling than the political “labels” created to divide and distract people from what’s really going on.

Just weird how emotional folks are getting about a difference in sleeves. Don’t think I noticed a single other difference.

These unis ain't that bad but they make us look soft. As long as we don't play soft, I dont care. #BeatLSU
 
No matter the uniform, just play Great! The fact that its one of the well thought out idea's i've seen coming from us is beautiful. Im looking to see if or how many teams break out something after a turnover or touchdown. Im real sure that turnover chain has motivated other teams to do something. So us with these uniforms, if it helps to motivate cleaning up the environment, it should be a federal crime for throwing trash in the ocean.

"There is a growing stigma within liberalism that implies activism equals conservationism"

Explain this thread then. The super conservative guy blamed liberals for this type of environmental strategy as if it were a bad thing. It isn't liberalism that implies activism equals conservationism. It's the obstinate unwillingness of many conservatives to emphatically support new environmental regulations. Yes, conservationism is a principle of conservatism. But many conservatives prioritize the current ways of doing things over changing laws in the name of environmental conservation. That's how this off topic discussion even started.
 
Some of you, including one specific tard, just can’t wait to pontificate your virtue.

Again this is a completely non-political issue.

Anybody that spends any time on a boat or in the ocean, diving, whatever their sport, understands that the tons of plastic floating around and in the ocean is really a big problem. It is a non-political issue.

Doesn’t matter what your politics are. Everybody wants that shlt out of the oceans.

this is about positive steps that are being taken, and continue to need to be taken to improve the quality of our oceans. It doesn’t have anything to do with what political party you belong topower mode or what you’re voting preferences are. But some of you just love to make it about that. Fūcking stop it.
