I don't think it's fearmongering. I actually think things are much worse than we think they are. But all I can do at this point is live as green a life as possible. Our condo doesn't recycle either. And I use our plastic bags for dog poop, so I'm not using green bags either. But we try to buy less and buy local, reusable bottles, etc.
One thing we're doing this year is giving extended family experiences instead of objects. My sis's family is getting zoo tickets. I think my little bro will get a massage certificate, etc.
