So much for all this "Green Dallas" baloney

When it comes right down to the interests of big business or the future of the environment, count on our Dallas City Council to wimp out and side with the interests of big business every time. The council demonstrated yesterday that all this business about "Green Dallas" is nothing more than a Web site with no teeth behind it.

While much of the world is considering a life without single-use plastic bags, Dallas says "No, not so much." We'll try education instead. I'm figuring that will be about as successful as the "Just say no" campaign was in stopping drug use.
