The Orang-utans of Borneo are facing an unprecedented threat as their habitat is destroyed to satisfy increasing global demands for bio-fuel.How do liberals sleep at night? I mean, their heads must be just spinning from all the different positions they have to take.
As jungles are rapidly replaced by palm oil plantations, the great apes starve and are hunted, mutilated, burnt and snared by workers protecting their crops.At a rehabilitation centre run by the charity Borneo Orang-utan Survival, there are more than 600, mostly orphaned babies. Lone Nielsen, the centre's director, estimates that for each of the 227 animals they rescued last year, five more were killed in central Borneo alone.
Like this: in order to reduce the use of fossil fuels (which AlGore says we must do), they ravage the rainforests (which the Sierra Club says we're supposed to be preserving), and destroy the natural habitat of these primates (which EarthFirst! must be upset about), and kill them to boot (what does PETA think about this?). I am so glad I'm not a liberal.
