[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jeff Raven: [QB] "Why is it always the position of the more right-winged parties that environmentalists need to provide proof for their claims?" This is the most inane thing I've ever seen. Everyone should demand proof before an action is taken. If made the claim that you kill babies, would you not demand proof that such a thing happens? Or should we just assume that it is true? "How the HELL can you believe for even a split second that oil spills, toxic and nuclear waste, exhaust gasses and God knows what else aren't absolutely destructive?!" How the hell can you believe for even a split second that industry WANTS these things? Oil spills are horribly expensive. Toxic and Nuclear waste cleanup is horribly expensive. WHY would you think that companies what such things? Trust them to prevent these things, and they will. Oil spills, nuclear meltdowns, etc. are very rare, especially when you take into account how many trips tankers take, or just now many nuclear power plants there are. Chernobyl and 3 Mile Island are exceptions, not the rule. I suppose progress doesn't matter. We should all return back to the forests and live off berries. That's the one thing I don't get about environmentalists. They advocate so much, and yet they ignore the clothes they wear, the cars they drive, the electricity they use. [/QB][/QUOTE]
