Penguins
Posted Nov 20, 2005
Penguins are the world's most fantastic creatures.
They stand together through the long Antarctic night
with nothing to eat and balance their eggs
on top of their feet.

We Feed the World
Posted Nov 8, 2005
A new film, made in Vienna, shows who is ruining the planet and why they are doing it.
In Austria maize is grown to feed incinerators; factory fishing is decimating fish stocks; soya grown in Brazil (an area of trees the size of Portugal and France combined has disappeared ... no wonder there's climate change) is shipped to Europe to feed chickens grown in factories; tomatoes from Spain are exported to Africa and sold there at a third of the price of home-grown African tomatoes. The casual labour growing the tomatoes under the Spanish plastic comes, of course, from Africa. A comment from an EU lorry driver to a Rumanian farmer whose fields, which once produced onions and other vegetables, have been turned over to genetic soya sums it up, "We've f..... up our own agriculture now we're f...... up yours." While all this, and much more, is going on the planet's kids are starving, sickening and dropping like flies.
