CAN companies succeed where governments have failed to protect the environment? The question was repeatedly asked in Rio de Janeiro this week, at the UN’s vast three-day environment summit, which was due to end on June 22nd.

It’s an interesting chart, JJ, but it leaves itself wide open to criticism because it doesn’t have “insurgent” casualties listed. But in terms of civilian casualties to US casualties, just wow.
Yikes!
@JJ: What a great talk… and it’s short, too, so it can keep people’s attention. TED never fails to amaze me.

Lowell Man Arrested For Throwing French Fries At Stepdaughter
I can’t even believe the lack of pertinent information in this. So why am I posting it? If the article is accurate, what a gross violation of this man’s rights. No sense of proportion whatsoever. Kidnap and jail a man for throwing french fries? What’s next? Shooting bubble gum thieves?
