Green Reece, the Greenpeace monkey saving scum
Greenpeace campaigner Reece Turner was at the receiving end of some rough treament in the comment thread of a Mumbrella story about controversial paper company Solaris this week. By Solaris employees, it turned out.
It’s his birthday. His colleagues got him this t-shirt.
Go Reece!

So remind me. What is his plan for saving monkeys, tigers and rain forests?
In amongst all their greenwash, I couldn’t work out what Greenpeace’s plan was.
Could Reece clarify?

It’s not quite rocket science AdGrunt, you stop the companies that are logging the hell out of the rainforests, so the monkeys, tigers and the rest of the biodiversty still has somewhere to live. Love your work Reece, happy bday!!!!

Joel, but it’s having fuck-all effect.
How is stopping IGA buying their product, stopping deforestation?
How is a tiger in a trap related to logging?
I realise it’s easy to believe some ban saves a forest, but it doesn’t.
That takes actual rocket-science instead of some clueless theatrics supported by non-existent plan.

AdGrunt, I assume you are an adult with a below average mental age. High school kids can work it out (google: deforestaction) , ie: buy land, save species, then do we really need to spell it out for you?

But that isn’t going to happen, is it? Hence your churlish response.
Do you believe that Solaris or APP are going to stop paper manufacture because of this? Of course not. You’ve done nothing.
That’s the blistering naivety. It’s hiding, not solving the problem.
This is Greenpeace’s perennial problem. They bang a pot, but don’t create a solution. Shift the problem form sight, but not provide a solution.
So yes, please do spell out this new land-buying plan (the GP site contains none of it) and what process for regeneration will be adopted managing the locals and their economy.
Because right at this moment, it seems you’ve thought of the high-school antics and hubris bit of the plan, but not the hard-to-do solution that will actually make a difference.
Awaiting your blistering plan with trepidation.

Palm oil, paper, pulp are all commodities and the growth market is China. Chasing APP, APRIL, and Solais out of Australia will allow them to operate in China and Asia without any consumer attention on them.
And their products are commodities, so if you think Nestle are not buying bad palm oil, its the same as you thinking your petrol does not come from Nigera. Greenpeace are like this labour govt and its live cattle ban….a knee jerk reaction that will have no positive result and more than likely, a negative net result
