Hey - no forgetting...
"The financial crisis is nothing compared with the environmental crisis," the deputy head of IUCN's species programme, Jean-Christophe Vie, told BBC News.
"It's going to affect a few people, whereas the biodiversity crisis is going to affect the entire world. So there is a risk that because of the financial crisis, people are going to say 'yeah, the environment is not that urgent'; it is really urgent."
Wall Street: trashing your economy AND your environment! Man, I hope people keep that eye on environmental concerns. All this time, people that try have been thinking, "Just get Bush out of office. Just get Bush out of office and we have a chance..." And now, the economy is listed as the top priority for some insane number of voters. Ugh! Oh well, it's not like China is going to cooperate any time soon. They'll happily nuke the globe to better themselves, IMO.
