  1. That really really really pisses me the fuck off. When will humans realize that the resources of this planet are limited, and the rights of indigenous people are sacred? Fucking greedy corporations. I wish i could afford a hybrid car so that i personally am not inadvertently feeding this rape.

  2. People will probably realize that resources are finite when there are none left. Then we’ll die off and the balance of nature will reassert itself. But yeah, this pisses me off as well. Fucking sucks.
