@eng1225 You are one ignorant person to call someone a hypocrite... So many of us are forced to live in what people like you have created... Saying a light is on is a lazy way to condone the distruction MTR is doing.... Coal is not going to last forever... What are we gonna do then??? People like you don't even care about your own children and what is being left behind for them... Talk about Evil Monsters!!! Yes, the Devil is alive and well here on earth....

Man does not manage the environment well thinking of the future use of land, air ,rivers.....ect.

The real hypocrites are those who have there head in the sand ,NOT LOOKING FOR NEW IDEAS TO CHANGE OUR SYSTEMS FOR THE BETTER.

Sustainable development not raping nature for quick profits
