spoof parking tickets from the anti's
Kenny:
I've had an eMail from Greenpeace today in response to my comment about trees. Note the last paragraph:-
"We have no objection to working Land Rovers, for example those driven off-road by farmers or used for necessary towing or relief aid. But we do object to 4x4 vehicles being mass marketed to urban drivers who rarely, if ever, drive off-road or encounter anything hillier than a speed bump.
Please have a look on our web site at www.choosecleanenergy.com to read our case against Land Rover and 4x4s and why the UK should be producing small fuel efficient vehicles if we are to save the climate and protect car manufacturing jobs in the UK.
If 1million people took part in our choosecleanenergy campaign, leading to 50 million+ people taking action on climate change that would be absolutely fantastic! If no action is taken then within our lifetime climate change could threaten the homes and lives of millions and condemn a third of all species to extinction. Trees are under far greater threat from inaction than our campaign!"

Hi Jake - thanks for your support on ScoobyNet ;)
Address for tickets for 'wastemonsters' is http://www.wastemonsters.org.uk/ just send them an email as directed with your name and address...
Costs them 46p to send, and the price of printing ~ 30 shiny double sided coloured flyers :D
Need to maximise agro against their cause though... So target Farmers, working 4x4s, emergency services, subaru Justys, small RAV4's etc :(vamp): :(biglaugh):
Good quote from document under "How to change things for the better":
"By catching the bus. Unlike in the car, on the bus you can catch up on some work or some reading. As with walking, the busier the bus is the safer everone feels"
- Hmm Car 20 Mins to work, bus an hour - I guess you would have time to do some work - certainly need to do something if you're going to be 40 mins late :lol: , busier bus = safer bus... Oh yes so public transport does have some drawbacks including cost, time, safety... - Ah well - If it means the planet will be saved it might be worth it :(biglaugh):
BRO:
Aha! - If you signup here http://www.greenpeace.org.uk/climate/signup.cfm
YOu can get Greenpeace to waste money by sending you all their garbage too... ;)

Having had some experience with dealing with certain people from the Anti campaign... by far the best way to deal with them is by using the hard facts.
If you analyse the claims and arguments they have, none of them support the "facts" about 4x4s being the villans.
There are worse cars for pollution, for size, for safety. You can play the statistics game all day if you like... for every 4x4 you find, you *will* find a current production car that is worse on some or all of the issues.
Don't let them get away with peddling lies and innuendo.... challenge them.
Ask Greenpeace what they are doing about the massive pollution caused by air travel.... sit on the street for a day and do a survey of the number of people on buses... give them facts... show them that we are NOT a bunch of mindless idiots shouting "geronimo !" as we tear up the country, running over small children with a smile on our faces.
They gained a lot of support by demonising the 4x4.... we have got a lot of ground back because they weren't expecting us to fight...
