    While capitalism is the basis of the worlds governments and constant economic growth is their agenda, it is a ridiculous idea to expect our governments to do anything about the problem. A totally new system is required.

    STOP TRYING TO PUT THE RESPONSIBILITY ON GOVERNMENTS - THEY ARE THE PROBLEM, NOT THE SOLUTION foxes "guarding" the chicken coop and everytime something happens to the chickens and you go "foxes, wtf happened?" and they go "not enough funding, give us more" and you're going "okay, here you go! better luck next time!"

    We need to find a viable alternative to helping the people and the rainforest .. If they can make money through other avenues ... Perhaps the Government would be more inclined to prevent the destruction of the rainforest .

    PHILIPPINE NGOs should invite STING over and jumpstart our own rainforest development concepts and programs. It seems the DENR could not do it.
