A scientist writes

I've become a vegetarian. I try to minimize the use of cars. Where I've failed is my impact with regard to air travel. I tell people I was born a Hindu who believes in reincarnation.It will take me the next six lives to neutralize my carbon footprint. There's no way I can do it in one lifetime!

Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
