Bitterest Irony

Comment comment by LordDilly on 17 August 2007

So it's come to this. Burning down rain forest (anyone remember the "save the rain forest" entreaties a few years ago?) and destroying a species for "eco-friendly" fuel. Is this a result of the man-made global warming hysteria? Is this what happens when the demands of the European nanny-state form an unholy union with the worst excesses of capitalism? Here's the worst part for me: if the Eu really gave a damn about global warming or whatever the hell it is they are trying to do, they'd be pumping resources into a viable and affordable electric car.

RE: Bitterest Irony by Eye.Of.Sage :: NR6

As we all say, "Life isn't fair". You must give up something for something in return. To save the Earth from the destructive force of the gradually building global warming risk, we must destroy all the Orangutans. This is like some freaky episode in The outer Limits where people are being converted and burned as fuel. Well, not exactly the same, but you know same concept, sacrifice one to save another.
