As a student concerned about the environment, I couldn’t help but notice that in the photo for the article Students rally for energy efficiency (SN 4/18) the supporters wore green hard hats. That seems like an oxymoron to me — they want better efficiency, but they supported the making of green plastic hats? Did they not realize how much energy is put into making something so trivial? If people want clean energy, they have to start noticing the things they do that seem harmless are actually bad for the environment, and not purchase or support the purchase of things that are against their cause.
