Greenpeace is not saying don't buy the new technology, they are just trying to make sure you know what is in your products. This way we can become knowledgeable buyers. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[courtney300]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 15th 2007 11:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why buy an I Phone?  Because it's the most kick-ass phone EVER!!!  The way I see it, I'll be dead in 50 yrs. so I may as well have fun with my phone now. Greenpeace should spend their time worring about bigger issues, like carbon emissions in China and Russia, and leave us harmless Apple lovers alone!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[hilarie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 15th 2007 11:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</guid><description><![CDATA[who gives a $hit. Greenpeace is a coalition of wheat grass drinking, hemp wearing, bicycle riding, vegetarian hippys. We need to make an island and send all these hippys there.

Bad mouthing iphones, which is considered a necessity for a lot of people is like demanding that Al Gore stop flying around in his personal jets and live in just one house.  iphone users are not going to give up their iphone, and Al is not going to give up his elite lifestyle, especially for the environment (whatever that is).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[don cross]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 15th 2007 11:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</guid><description><![CDATA[who cares. green peace is retarded. For the little amount of trouble these devices cause, and for what they're capable of doing. Whatever.

It's in our nature to self destruct. And when we do, the Earth will go on, and other creatures will evolve, and everything will be rejuvinated. It's such a joke to think that humans can "heal the world." Granted we can be careful about how we treat our environment for future generations, but thinking you can save the Earth is just a flat out joke. The Earth is a vicious, tumultuous place where anything can happen at any time, hence natural disasters. This is the way the Earth cleanses itself. And as for Global Warming, HA! It's a freaking joke. All it would take is 1 large scale volcanic eruption, or one meteorite/comet collision and welcome back to the Ice Age. It's bound to happen. Most likely after we've all killed ourselves anyway. But life will go on, as it always has in the past. Just not in human form.<br><br>>>>>The comments above were put online by someone named "Ken". He apparently hasn't realized yet that we will vanish in a puff of genie smoke because we are a nasty, mean and dirty species that thinks we can go on like this forever. WE CAN'T, AND WE WON'T!

People are selfish apes who live only for their own selfish desires, regardless of the harm they do. I say, forget Greenpeace - it's not making a difference anyway since you can't try to reason with lesser monkeys. Let these apes destroy their world. When they're living in their own toxic waste, breathing toxic air (already happening) and running out of clean food and water, probably rotting away from STD's because they can't stick to one partner, maybe they'll finally get it. Then again, they'd probably just blame it on someone else. <br><br>I admire Greenpeace for their efforts, but I doubt it'll do any good. The masses are too god damn dense to understand anything but "I want!" ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[piddle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 15th 2007 12:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/15/iphone-bad-for-environment-says-greenpeace/</guid><description><![CDATA[GREENPEACE IS A PAIN IN THE ASS.
