In Amazonia and the Mato Grosso, in all of the forests of Southeast Asia, the utter destruction of the watershed of the Marcellus Shale, the mutilation of the Gulf of Mexico, the extensive brown fields of the NE US, the Mississippi as a massive sewer, and on and on and on we can see the result of the priority of profits.

Is that funny?
