Our evil planet kills countless humans every year – why bother to save it?
The Guardian ^ | November 24th, 2015 | Colin Quinn

If this planet exploded tomorrow I wouldn’t shed a tear.

Environmentalists say evil mankind is destroying a beautiful God-given place. Really? Mudslides, earthquakes and twisters kill millions (thousands) of people every year. Innocent planet? I judge by deeds not words. Yes, pollutants kill. But so do rockslides.

I get that this is sarcasm. But the fact that the general level of critical thinking has dropped so low as to enable this to BE sarcasm is truly depressing.

Actually I found the article pretty funny...unlike the Guardian readers that commented on it.

It is pretty good and many of the comments have been removed. :) I’m surprised that he only mentioned Mars because there is a great big universe that is impacted by our not coughing in our sleeves. How many aliens (space) have we killed? How many black holes have been formed because of the ozone depletion?

The media cover-up of Earth's cruel WAR ON WOMEN is despicable!

Climate change is also part of ‘Mother Nature’. Desert, plains, ice. All on the same terrain over the course of millions of years.
