Comments on: A Letter To The Logging Company That Is Suing Greenpeace https://gregladen.com/blog/2017/06/14/a-letter-to-the-logging-company-that-is-suing-greenpeace/ Fri, 02 Feb 2018 01:03:31 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.8 By: Wow https://gregladen.com/blog/2017/06/14/a-letter-to-the-logging-company-that-is-suing-greenpeace/#comment-452871 Fri, 16 Jun 2017 08:23:25 +0000 http://scienceblogs.com/gregladen/?p=24214#comment-452871 Meh. Could be a way to deliver a threat that can’t be dismissed. “Why you gotta make me cry Frankie?” as you usher Frankie out to get whacked. I mean, he’s totally not willing to have him whacked, he just has to do it because he’s forced into it!

Offering an opinion on the technical legal issues would have been out of place and would probably have undermined the tenor of common sense and social responsibility that the letter is attempting to establish, or at the very least distracted from it.

Just don’t tell anyone…it wouldn’t be good for his image.

Greedy capitalist pigs!

But they gotta do all that stuff and they do in fact do all that stuff.

I appreciate that they are going for the environmentally preferred option because they feel like they should, not because they are being forced to. But the same could be said about these other things. Is it true that they have an HR department that minimizes the risk of sexual harassment in the workplace only because that is the law?
