The Oil Companies provide the Petroleum fuel that runs most of our economy.

The consumer consumes the fuel that pollutes our air.

Who then is the greater "threat" to our environment?

Obviously, ALL the members of Greenpeace are aware that the consumption of Petroleum fuel is what is really harmful to our environment.

Hence, it would be interesting to find out how many of the members of Greenpeace who arrived in Irving, Texas chose not to pollute our friendly skys with burned jet fuel. Or pollute our highways with burned gasoline, or burned diesel.

Since plastic is made from Crude Oil, did they walk to Irving in shoes with non-plastic soles?

Did they not use other plastic items such as credit cards, sandwich bags and cell phones?

At your upcoming FREEP, be sure and carry a sign asking the Greenpeacers how they plan to get home WITHOUT the use of plastic credit cards, jet fuel, automobile gasoline or diesel for the trucks they might use to hitch a ride with.

BTW, most bicycles use tires that are made from plastic.
