I love summer

I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque
I love to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shades
Ooh the people I’ve met
Are the wonders of my world

Conflict of Interest?

John Eliash made his millions from his logging company: Gethal. He is also an environmental consultant for the British Prime Minister... In 2006, he suggested that the Amazon rain forests would best be protected by being privatized. He then bought 160 thousand acres for himself and had his company cut down 230 thousand noble trees- a direct violation of Brazil’s environmental laws!




As it is, most of the Amazon’s deforested areas are owned by foreign investors.
