I can not speak Icelandic, but I certainly hope your beautiful country and pure Viking land is preserved and respectd, before it is too late. God bless and keep Iceland beautiful, Be Well.

I wish people could talk to one another without accusing or insulting one another and without inciting Nationalism.

The world is our home. Yes, we have borders in place and we have a certain system in place with rules, taxes, infrastructure that needs to be handled..but the Earth is our home as human beings and we should certainly look hard at our options when it comes to altering the natural environment. We cannot live anywhere else and neither can the animals and plants.

You are wrong and I am not an idiot. You work and help build up your country where you reside in. There are many people working hard for a better environment in Iceland. They feel that they want the best for Iceland and together do their part for a better future. You do not own land in Iceland, not now or hopefully in near future. You have your own home and taker care of that first. If you do want do do something useful globally, you educate yourself and start working let us say in the UN.

@annerough If you think land can be "owned" by anyone then you're an idiot. The land I'm standing on right now is as much yours as it is mine. Paying taxes is merely an institutional process which has nothing to do with land, seas, or nature. Before industrialisation, the concept of "nationality" as it exists today didn't even exist among the general public.

You might have to catch up on your studies there young lady.

[annerough]

I would like to know where this young woman that doesn't believe in boarders, which country do you pay taxes in. You do pay taxes do you not. That is very important you see. If you are a student you might understand where you study and when you have to go to the hospital who pays your bill. No Iceland is not yours, the work for a better environment is a global issue. But you do not act within the Icelandic boundaries. You might have to catch up on your studies there young lady.

Saving our country? They're a bunch of fucking hypocrit fucks who we want nothing with.

[christo930]

I can't believe that woman who said she didn't believe in borders and that it was her land as well. This might turn out to be a good project, but usually enviromentals love to live in modern society while trying to force other not to. For her to say she has equal say on that land is sickening.
