Ego Warrior

"Ego Warrior" is a play on the phrase "Eco Warrior". It aptly describes those who selflessly 'save the planet', and get a bit of an ego boost in the process. An ego warrior typically likes to point out their heroic feats to everyone within earshot - drawing attention to their sacrifice - and thereby emphasising how little other mere mortals are doing.

Newman chained himself to some machinery this morning - and is now wearing an adult nappy, as he's not sure when the filth are coming to bolt-cut him off! Newman is such an ego warrior.
