Save Nature? - "Save the planet? We haven't even learned how to look after each other and we're going to sane the planet?....Besides there's nothing wrong with the planet, the planet is fine, the PEOPLE are fucked. The planet isn't going anywhere, we are! Pack your shit folks we're going away and we won't leave much of a trace, maybe a little styrofoam.
