  • All countries need to tax the corporations and the rich at a high rate so they may protect and preserve the ecosystems on which their lives all depend, and protect their people.

    It's not good to privatize wild areas and keep them off-limits for the poor, while letting the rich enjoy them. We need to keep wild areas wild, period, let no one onto the wild lands. The wildlife of the world need refuges, undisturbed by people and their garbage.
