If you think people should change because they like that warm fuzzy feeling you should look into game theory.

People's actions speak much, MUCH louder than words.

Edit: I do agree that some people will find some level of utility knowing that they are "saving the earth", but the majority of people do not feel this way, and instead speak with their wallets.

Yes, people almost uniformly suck in this regard. That this is our preference says something quite negative, that's simply my point.
