So today they lit the tree in Rockafella Center........... I of course did not go, I never go.
The tree they decorated and displayed in the square was over 200 yrs old and cut down to be displayed for 28 days and then thrown into a wood chipper.
You say you want a green planet, you start charities and enforce recycling laws, tell people not to litter, to use less, reuse grocery bags.............
and then you go out and find something that nature took over 200 years to grow and you kill it, when you could have fabricated a fake one (that looks real) and used it every year for the next 10-20 or more years.
But no, instead you chose to kill one this year and very likely another next year because its tradition. At this rate my children will see large trees in movies and think to themselves "those are great special effects, the way they made so many trees appear on screen at the same time and enlarged them to such a huge size". *Endor is a lie*
Some people search diligently for the "badguys" in this world and all the while justify their own evil deeds as the greater good.
