@kim_harding It's strange how if you replaced drilling-for-oil with mistreatment-of-donkeys, the "argument" that there's a world of donkey mistreatment out there would be met with complete outrage. Yet the argument always is "but China… " or "but security".
The fact is that burning stuff still isn't a moral question for many people.
