Seems to be the place most people prefer to hang out at when it comes to this issue. All I know is that when dollars, multinational companies and politicians are involved in any issue the truth well never come out and the debate will continue till it's too late or the planet turns into a cinder with everyone pointing the finger at everyone else.
My answer is to try and reduce my ecological footprint on the environment (I think thats what they like to call it these days) and live by my rules on my terms. Any one that chooses to share my immediate environment in my home either deals with it or doesn't and doesn't come back. Out there in the world I share as best I can within the limits of living on my own terms mostly within the law sometimes outside it.
A very interesting thread this with some interesting points of view. Viva free speech for as long as it lasts!
