The Heartland Institute, a conservative think tank, argues that the costs of such green initiatives outweigh their benefits, suggesting that they impose unnecessary economic burdens (Heartland Institute, 2017).

Guess some people see everything in a cost-profit margin only.

Guess some people see everything in a cost-profit margin only.

Especially when it's convenient. I'm sure they would happily look the other way if you showed them the economic burdens of having a car-centric society.

And thinking that way about everything is obviously the wrong way to go about life and will end up failing.
