It is child abuse, plain and simple, please dont really upset these simle folk by showing the Chinese effort at pollution, makes the yanks pollution and rape of the earth look totally amature, sort of 21st century china sindrome!!!!

Sad really. From an Anthropological perspective the Ecoweenies are trying to vitalize their moribund and poorly hygenic culture.
In order to attract young males they promote themselves a "warrior society" that allows the semi-adolescent Male to posture and demonstrate their eco-manliness to other young eco-females in order to get laid.
"Dudes" who wouldn’t ever think of joining the Military (oo-ick!) seek adventure (and structure) and work to demonstrate their bravery in rigidly eco-sanctioned "cool" ways.
The Service branches only provide this kind of social stimulus as a byproduct whereas with these groups it’s more central to capturing and maintaining new believers to the cult. Islamism is a lot the same.

What a bunch of rot...

Here's where you can buy carbon DEBITS for clowns
like these, and kill a tree in their name:

This clip is like something out of 'Monty Python?' I'll bet when the camera was switched off, they all fell about laughing. The only thing that really came to my mind, was how much B.O & halitosis seemed to radiate from the clip. These kinds of eco-warriors always seem to have low personal standards of hygene? Somthing to do with 'the fleas, that tease, in the high Pyrenees?!'

expletive delete...

Mulch them!

Maybe I'm wrong, but the tree stump about which these numpties are wailing doesn't even look like one left behind after logging. It's broken and splintered appearance leads me to think it was actually deadfall.

Personally I think these eejits should be rounded up and then turned loose on a live firing range. At least their existence would then prove to have been worth something.

At the end of the day, these lentil-eating liberal hemp-sandal-wearing morons would do well to remember that the only reason they can afford to be so concerned for the trees is because they have the good fortune to live in a country where they can be provide them enough food in their stomachs, and they have the good fortune to live in a democratic society that affords them the freedom to hold whatever beliefs they chose, no matter how ignorant or uninformed.

Moreover, they have the liberty to hold those views because there are others in society – like John McCain, who they despise so much, and the millions of others like him – prepared to put on a uniform and, despite disagreeing with the political beliefs that the trendy tree-hugging liberals may have – are still prepared to fight and die to defend their right to hold them.

Liberty needs its defenders and every village needs its idiot.

I, for one, am certainly impressed with the quality of the idiots. How those mooks come out of the same gene pool as resulted in such intellectual achievements as splitting the atom or even publishing the A-to-Z Guide to London is a major mystery to me...

It's a spoof - right?

Tell me it's a spoof... Oh sh1t, it's not a spoof and these soap-dodging buffoons are serious.

Although these will probably be as committed as the "eco-warrior vegan" person I met (on a train) who when asked how she managed without leather shoes, drugs tested on animals and only walking everywhere blandly stated that she had to use these things to "further the cause" of other people not using them. The ensuing argument was fun!

Au contrair, Mr. FM, a flamethrower would be far too impersonal. May I suggest a butt stroke to the jaw followed by a bayonet thrust to the belly.

Chris, you are so *$^% ignorant about the 'rape' of Gaia by the USA that I need to square you away on a few facts:

First of all: We are NOT signatories to the Kyoto Protocols. Why should we be when we don't get the same votes? We have compulsory emissions tests on vehicles...some for every make and model, every year, in some states.

Let me tell you why emissions tests on cars is stupid, an unnecessary tax and how it only benefits those who have testing stations: Gasoline/petrol here comes in three grades of octane: 87, 89 and 93. 93 is the most expensive grade and burns the cleanest. However, all fuels, regardless of octane level, have additives put in it at the refinery to comply with ALL state emissions level requirements! That means, it has to burn clean no matter WHAT octane level it is and what vehicle it is put into.

There are even octane boosters one can use if one is not confident about the level of emissions being safe and if one is worried about the catalytic converter in the tailpipe that conveniently burns off the remaining fuel and is part of the exhasut system. It is required by federal statute to be in all cars after a certain year.

For laughs and giggles, I put nitrous methane in the tank of My Precious to boost fuel economy because the 'additives' will corrode your gas tank if the fuel is allowed to get gummy or sludgy.

So, with all that redundancy in place, why in the samhill would we need a freakin' emissions inspection? It is to make work for losers who can't get a job elsewhere. You can't register your car with the local authorities unless your car has passed the state emissions test. One more thing: My Jeep Cherokee is over 15 years old and has been emissions tested every year for the past six years. The allowable pollutants are so low they don't even register!

Trees..oh my goodness. My property is loaded with them and a right hazard, but I can't get a permit to cut a couple of them down which are threatening my house; one storm like Ike in my area and my house is history. The reason? A nesting pair of red-tailed hawks. During the Clinton's Reign of Error, clearing up old growth DEAD TIMBER was not allowed. The result? Forest fires that burned out of control and were extremely costly. You keep things clean, fires don't happen.

The US Forest Service is a wart on the behind of the Department Of the Interior. During a couple of really nasty blazes in the Mark Twain National Forest (I had to take my children and evacuate after I hosed off my house and my husband and sons dug a firebreak), the Army Corps of Engineers had the necessary equipment to not just contain the fire but put it out. They were refused entrance into the MTNF because of the 'delicate ecosystems that are being threatened.' The *&^ forest was going up in flames and they were worried about compliance with the Sierra Club!

I could go on and on about the 'voluntary' compliance the US does and how we POLICE OURSELVES to the point where we make the rest of y'all look like Beijing's atmosphere. But why?
You are so determined to think we are bullying Algore, polar bears and aborting oil from the rocky womb of Gaia that using reason won't work on you.

But then again, when it comes to tree-huggers, stranger things have happened.

Oh good grief. What total idjits. Please, let us hope they have not added to the gene pool.
Chris, I hope you were being satirical. If you were, I apologize for the rant. If you were totally serious and you are a tree hugger, there is a rain forest with your name on it.

Yes, Monty Python indeed! I can easily visualize a gigantic animated foot dropping down from the sky, to recycle these twits back into the ecology as fertilizer for the trees.
