On this day I am reminded of another of my favorite Edward Abbey lines:

"Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear."

Spoof ad promotes fake mascot ‘Scrubby Greenwash’ to LNG execs

US-based activists sneak ad in journal promising to mitigate ‘reputational risks’ of investing in liquefied natural gas

The Guardian
🧵
> Those engines of mischief were sentenced to die
By unanimous vote of the trade
And Ludd who can all opposition defy
Was the grand executioner made
> And when in the work he destruction employs
Himself to no method confines
By fire and by water he gets them destroyed
For the elements aid his designs

After reading #DesertSolitaire  by #EdwardAbbey & then #MonkeyWrenchGang in '76, we rafted through #Canyonlands in southeastern #Utah. After 8 days of lazily floating under the massive sandstone canyons, we arrived at the confluence of #GreenRiver & #ColoradoRiver & witnessed the immense rapids actively carving the heart of Cataract Canyon. Mind blown & then after the final set of rapids we arrived at a drowned #GlenCanyon 💔 making me a life-long lover of free rivers. 😢 #LakePowell can suck it.

I think I'd call this defamatory development, adding as it does to the desecration in his name of the desert he so obviously loved. Still, I suspect Ed Abbey would have no trouble ripping these guys a new one in innovative ways, and take great joy in doing it were he still alive. He did it in print with many of their ilk.

@DoomsdaysCW #MonkeyWrenchGang Law now makes hugging trees a felony. Perfect way to stop environmentally conscious people from interfering with environmental suicide capitalism forcing submission to the petro chemical industry sponsored government fascism, eliminating the right to protest, demanding redress, making sure to take away their right to vote.

If California wins its lawsuits against the oil companies, wouldn't that suggest that their products are innately dangerous and that they lied about those dangers, and that any action taken to prevent future oil exploration is not only justifiable but critically necessary if only for reasons of self-defense?
