    Capitalists aren't content to just pollute the Earth anymore

    These whackaloons want to take their raping and pillaging of the natural world to asteroids and to the moon so that they can profit off of minerals. Isn't destroying one world enough? I guess when they are finished destroying the Earth then they will destroy the entire solar system, then the universe, then the entire galaxy.

    Hopefully there are inhabitants of these worlds like in Avatar that will help put a stop to the whole thing.

    From the sound of it, your grasp of what you are talking about is quite possibly as firm and extensive as the manner is which an earthworm regards quantum mechanics.

    In other words, maybe you should attempt to possess some slight fragment of knowlege about something before discussing it..... just a thought.

    There are people calling for the banning of assault weapons who could not define an “assault weapon“ if their life depended on it. Yet the ignorant expect others to take them seriously.

    Look, dude, I'm all for environmental protection and whatnot, but asteroids don't have an environment. They're rocks.

    Good hard-sci fi trilogy. In this story a "Red" environmentalist movement was started on Mars that opposed terraforming.

    they sure dont,but they do have some precious materials.i am fairly certain since most of what we have on earth has been found in space like water iron and titanium,that maybe we have scratched the surface of the minerals that exist in the universe.

    maybe one day we will destroy an asteroids environment and discover a new supercunductor metal that will power supercomputers
    god made life a gamble
    and we're still in the game
