A prominent New York lawyer has died after setting himself on fire in Brooklyn's Prospect Park to protest against the use of fossil fuels.
David Buckel, 60, had been well-known for his work on behalf of the LGBT community, as well as with environmental groups.
A suicide note near the lawyer's remains said he had immolated himself using fossil fuel to symbolize the damage humans are doing to the Earth.
Buckel had also reportedly sent the note to multiple news outlets, including The New York Times, warning that people were dying early deaths as a result of breathing in bad air.
Pollution ravages our planet, oozing inhabitability via air, soil, water and weather, Buckel wrote in his email to the Times.
Most humans on the planet now breathe air made unhealthy by fossil fuels, and many die early deaths as a resultmy early death by fossil fuel reflects what we are doing to ourselves.

One down...
Exactly.. We’ve known for at least a decade oil is not fossil fuel. Why do so many people still call it fossil fuel?! It’s so Annoying! ð ——————————————————————————————
I think you misunderstood. Biotic - means of biological origin “fossil fuel”
Abiotic - of non-biological origin.
The evidence is strong for biotic origins. Weak, but not non-existent for abiotic origins. There may be some abiotic oil, but it does not seem to be much or accessable.
He didn’t use enough gas, so halfway through he added more fuel. /s

the new Trinity, Lawyer, Gay, liberal. Three “birds” one stone.
My initial thought was that this is on Gore. Not that I see it as any really great loss.
Even worse, the note was written by computer, not handwritten. Maybe there’s some way to confirm that he typed it up, BUT the note not being handwritten bothers me.
“the note not being handwritten bothers me.”
As an “ID Addict”, I am also suspicious of a typed suicide note.
The lying elite media believes we are stupid... for a reason.
We believe stupid hoaxed stories like this all the time.
Thank you for the info.
