The World Bank encourages irresponsible exploitation of rain forests and natural resources by, for instance, funding the highway (which never should have been built) through the Amazon Rain Forest and by allowing Multi-national Corporations to overexploit and over-expend pristine habitats around the world.
Industry spews millions of tons of pollutants wafting into the air, not including the tons of what is dumped in lakes, rivers and oceans, and what is buried underground.
The government, both in the U.S., all levels of government both here and abroad, are especially true Ecoterrorists, for instance, because they tend to allow too much pollution of all varieties plus too much devastation and development of important habitats and breeding grounds for the sake of short-term prosperity, or to benefit the so-called bottom line. Our government and others also tend to carelessly dispose of nuclear and chemical toxic waste. It also continues to condone and perpetuate the dangerous pursuit of more powerful and effective nuclear and biological or chemical weapons, which could destroy or devastate the entire planet. (to be cont'd)
