    I doubt any sociopath on the planet could have expressed it any better.
    Unless they are stopped and we change our ways, the only satisfaction that
    we will have is when rising sea engulf the last of their private islands
    and sea front real estate. That will include ALL of their real estate in
    any city within 330′ elevation of present sea levels.

    This is why satire exists; anyone can take it as humorous, witty,
    diabolical, perverse, the truth, a lie, propaganda, marketing, – anything
    one wants except for one thing: there are no FACTS to debate. There are
    no facts. This is about probability, cause and effect, emotion and even to
    an extent ideology but not about culture, religion, gender, age or
    political preferences. This is even NOT about entrepreneurship or
    capitalism, communism or unfettered control – it is only about corporate
    values versus humane values. It is about TRUTH versus the other stuff – the
    stuff of satire. One can make what one wants of it, walk away from it
    disgusted or enlightened or 1/2 way in between. One cannot walk away making
    a judgment. I love it for what it is and for what it provokes. In
    conclusion, I would say that ‘what it provokes’ is, in the final analysis,
    going to prove the worth of this satire as an instrument to promote
    awareness in people and everyone of us has a different type and level of
    awareness that needs to be addressed. I for one found mine. Thank you
    whoever made this piece and promotes it.

    Refreshing!! Major corporations, especially those that extend an influence globally, have been operating on this premise for decades. It’s time that Australian Coal took the bull by the horns and honestly stated the behaviour. From those business that rape our natural resources to cable companies, big box department and electronic storss, auto manufacturers and their dealer/service networks – hell, to the convenience store on the corner have perfected the “F–ck You” concept beyond imagination. Like lemmings to the sea, we sit back and let it happen! Go figure.

    At 1:10 the silver haired bloke says “the company” which is an obvious edit from the original recording. I wonder what corporate name was used before the lawyers stepped in? :-)

    (Note, if this was on TV, the AFLC would have ensured there is an “MA: coarse language” tag applied. I hate spoiling quality black humor – but I guess overseas viewers may not appreciate good old fashion Australian self-deprecation :) )

    So how much more clarity do people need to stand up and do something about
    the greed on this earth. Yes this is a little play but in reality this is
    the truth.
    Fanny yesterday I talked to a normally, smart guy but he is totally opposed
    to renewable energy. Reason he want’s to drive his big oversized truck and
    want’s to enjoy the comfort of his heated house? How can we reduce the
    population from dummies like him.

    You do realise that anthropogenic CO2 is only 3%, right? Do you also
    realise that by increasing the cost of energy, you are ensuring the
    mass-genocide of the poorest people in the world who can’t afford the
    increases? Not only that, you are also increasing the wealth gap too?

    Only that it isn’t future generations and your granddaughter’s
    grandchildren who will face the suffering of climate change. The damage we
    are dealing with today is from Co2 from 40 years ago and we have put more
    Co2 in the atmosphere this year than in all years combined. This is our
    life time. This is not a matter of someone else dealing with the effects
    of climate change in the future. This is plants not being able to grow as
    early as 2030 because plant proteins denature when it is too hot . If
    people understood that it is us now that are in real danger it may make a
    difference in their decisions but when they choose to ignore the science or
    think it is a far off problem for someone they don’t have any feelings for
    to deal with, they do what suits them today. I don’t believe this because
    I want to. There is no motive in believing in the devastation of climate
    change. It actually really sucks. But there is one to deny it and that is
    to greed, and unwillingness to change and give up luxury at the expense of
    all life. Think climate change is wrong? That is a big risk to take with
    my life and the lives of my 2 children.
