"Advertising commodifies the natural world and attaches material value to non-material goods, treating natural resources as private and ownable, not public and intrinsic." -- Hope, Diane S., "Environment as Consumer Icon in Advertising Fantasy," Enviropop, 2002, 161-174.
"Switiching from driving an average car to a 13 mile per gallon SUV for only one year would waste more energy than if you left your refrigerator door open for 6 years, left your bathroom light burning for 30 years, or left your color television turned on for 28 years." --Sierra Club, Driving Up the Heat: SUV's and Global Warming, link
