The link between the environment and war

leave a comment »

Did you know that 40% of world’s civil or internal wars in the last half century have been fought over for natural resources?

Today is International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War and Armed Conflict. We should remember the (illogical) reasons why we are fighting in the first place. Then, may be, we will put down our weapons and make peace instead.

This death is brought to you by…

with 4 comments

So I am checking out the US death toll statistics in the War Against Terror and I am bombarded by:

  • a car advertisement,
  • a jewellery advertisement, and
  • an internet phone advertisement.

Not to mention there was a pop-up ad which my browser had blocked for me.

So my friend asks me why I hate advertising so much? And here is the answer. Some things are just tasteless and this is one of them.
