Greenpeace: Using airplanes to get to places all over the world to stop others from harming the planet.

WWF: Printing millions of animal stickers given for free to supermarket costumers to collect in order to save animals and their home: the forests.

Confessions of a Greenpeace founder

Confessions of a Greenpeace founder:

Greenpeace had no trouble with confrontation — hell, we’d made it an art form — but we had difficulty cooperating and making compromises. We were great at telling people what they should stop doing, but almost useless at helping people figure out what they should be doing instead.

I admire Greenpeace for what they do but Gaaaaaaaaaaawd whenever i actually read anything they put out it just becomes clear that they haven’t got a fricking clue what they’re on about. I’d like to see them justify some of their views like, what the hell do they think is a viable alternative if…

Indonesia’s Rejection of Greenpeace’s Scare Tactics is a Boon for Economic Development

Fri, 22 Oct 2010 14:11:20 +0700

Indonesia’s Rejection of Greenpeace’s Scare Tactics is a Boon for Economic Development:

These radical activists receive tens of millions in government grants for so-called environmental protection. But in reality, this money goes towards ambitious campaigns in the developed world that are designed to pile guilt on companies, consumers and public officials for sourcing, purchasing and supporting commodities from the developing world.

Is Green Wash really still making waves?

Is Green Wash really still making waves?:

jjmarketing:

I spotted this story in The Independent this morning about ‘Earth Lunch Hour’ and I have to say I’m amazed that this type of green wash story still has legs. Not that I’m against any idea that helps the environment, but a PR initiative from global electronics giant Panasonic encouraging people to ‘do a little bit’ for the environment in their lunch hour is nothing short of patronising and hypocritical.

Most multi-national corporations intrinsically operate in a way that is not friendly to the environment - it’s the nature of profit-making and capitalism to consume. So from a PR perspective, I can understand the need for a CSR programme to go some way to mitigating the impact this has on the environment. But the Greenpeace Guide to Greener Electronics which ranks the top 18 electronics companies currently has Panasonic languishing in 10th place, suggesting it still has some work to do before it can inject any credibility into its environmental campaigns.

Globalist Foundation Exploits Angry Child to Blame Adults for Fake Climate Change

Globalist Foundation Exploits Angry Child to Blame Adults for Fake Climate Change :

I am reminded of the school children of Mao’s Red Guard when I look at this boy. Mao’s brainwashed young zombies killed around 7 million people during the Cultural Revolution.

"So, if Facebook doesn’t accede to Greenpeace’s energy usage demands, and bow to the Greenpeace..."

Thu, 02 Sep 2010 17:33:27 +0700

“

So, if Facebook doesn’t accede to Greenpeace’s energy usage demands, and bow to the Greenpeace corporate campaign launched against Facebook – ironically enough on Facebook itself, will Greenpeace call upon its Facebook supporters to boycott Facebook in the same way Greenpeace called upon Nestlé customers to boycott the Kit Kat bar?

Will 1 million Greenpeace supporters suddenly disappear from Facebook, leaving Greenpeace scurrying to find a new, and free, social media battle space for future anti-corporate campaigns?

As the Brits say … not bloody likely.

Hypocrisy lives.

Media and Perception

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 07:20:58 +0700

Media and Perception:

The media in modern western-influenced culture creates a meta-reality for its consumers which supersedes the reality of their day to day existence. This essay looks at the difference between man’s culturally-created reality and the reality of the Universe-as-it-is, and the supplanting of culturally-created realities by the meta-reality of the media sphere.
