Same here, but I also can't disagree because if we don't get the population a little enraged and hyped up about it then there will be no pressure on the politicians. At least this is the case in the US where oil/gas/mining lobbyists continue to have protected lands changed to unprotected so they can rape and desecrate it for profits.
