UK not charging thug

samedi 17 juin 2017 à 02:00

The UK made a political decision not to prosecute a thug that shot an unarmed man dead.

The government admitted its decision was made to avoid disapproval by other armed thugs. If that is accepted as a reason not to prosecute, it will give thugs carte blanche to kill.

Expanding fracking

samedi 17 juin 2017 à 02:00

Business wants to expand fracking in the US, and export the gas in ships to Europe, to make plastic.

This is so wasteful it is crazy.

The oil that is made into plastic is not burnt; it doesn't turn into greenhouse gases. But fracking leaks methane, so it adds to the greenhouse effect.

Since plastic gets into the ocean and kills sea life, we need to make less of it. A higher price would have that effect.
