Sharks, that response is absurd. Greenpeace does not get involved this those sorts of things because there is no free publicity in it. The get
nothing out of it. Greenpeaces' original mission was great, but it has morphed into a for profit business for those who run it. Much like the ones
it protests against. IMHO, all you tree huggers need to take a college level chemistry class. 2nd law of thermodynamics: All attempts to make order
from chaos only result in further chaos. By Greenpeaces' very existence they make things worse not better. Deal with it.
Oh, that goes for you, me, this discussion, and the avaricious transactionists that are building that ill advised marina. .
Now who can tell me the first law of thermodynamics?
OK, I will save you the trouble: All energy flows from the highest energy source to the lowest.

Did I ever say I trusted them? They are like lawyers. No, they ARE lawyers. Even they can help once and a while.
I only hug trees that hang around my house. I love em.

I think what Mexitron is alluding too is a "Nature Conservancy" approach: buy suitable lands before they are threatened with development. Or purchase
development rights.

Do any of you know what is involved in an anuncio(that may not be the exact word, but it is a protest filed with the government of Mexico, notice I
said Mexico) It is a very long and tedious process and if you file one and you loose, you have to pay the person you filed against for all work lost
due to your filing.
There is a reason this is late coming. The Angeles del Estero have been working on this unaided for years. They needed help and are finally getting
some. Greenpeace is not the only organization that has stepped up to the plate recently and finally the word is getting out to the people. A
grassroots group like the Angeles have a very hard time with funding and therefore need outside help. But this group is made up of local citizens who
are beginning to be heard.
I really dont see what difference it makes when the work is stopped. Do you understand what the problem is? Our water supply is threatened by
introducing salt water into our water table. Would you want to drink salty water, put it on your plants, feed it to your pets. watch as your garden
dies along with all the other living things along the San Jose arroyo?
DK, you and I seldom agree on these types of issues but I would like to believe that if you understood the gravity of this situation, you would join
me in protesting against this travesty.
Osa, help me with this please if you have figured out how to log on! |
I think you mean a "denuncia" which is a lawsuit and yes if the plaintif loses the case they need to compensate the defendant as per the law.
