Plastic Bag Manufacturers Playing Hard Ball Suing Eco-Friendly Companies

Manufacturing plastic bags is big business, make no mistake about that. The inroads that Eco- groups have made getting consumers to switch from single use plastic bags to reusables has not gone un-noticed by plastics industry.

RINGLING BROS CRUELTY TO ITS ELEPHANTS…THIS TIME PETA IS RIGHT

Posted on by

I don’t like PETA. No, correct that. What I don’t like is PETA’s tactics and messaging. Their publicity stunts (many extreme in concept & execution) have caused the group to become a laughing stock to most people. Sadly, their cooked up stunts drowns out the very real topic of cruelty to animals.

This morning I happened on this series of photos about Ringling Bros. using electro shock to train the elephants used in their shows. The more I investigated the angrier I got. It is hard not to knowing about the intelligence of these great animals.

PETA is right on what is happening as it relates to the treatment of elephants by Ringling Bros. Circus. Continue reading RINGLING BROS CRUELTY TO ITS ELEPHANTS…THIS TIME PETA IS RIGHT→

When Our Oceans Are Barren; Japanese Atrocities of Whales, Dolphins & Sharks

Posted on by

No, we have a few nations, Japan in particular, that behave with utter disregard to savage, mind numbing killing of sharks just for their fins. Harvesting sharks as a food source is one thing … killing hundreds of thousands of sharks just for their fins and tossing the rest of the carcasses away is criminal waste.

The Japanese apparently feel that all of the oceans fish, sharks, dolphins, and whales are there to feed their voracious appetites for sea food and the rest of the world be dammed. It’s part of their culture, don’t ya know! Continue reading When Our Oceans Are Barren; Japanese Atrocities of Whales, Dolphins & Sharks→
