25 naked eco-wackos arrested in strange South Carolina protest

Leftist eco-wackos love to strip naked in the belief that people who don’t yet believe in their cause will suddenly change their minds when exposed to fat, ugly, protesting bodies.

We have nothing against nudity. In fact, we kind of like it. Some of our fondest memories involve nudity.

That being said, not one of those fond memories involves a protest of any sort. No, we’ve given it considerable thought and nary a nude moment in our lives has had anything to do with protesting.

Leftist eco-wackos on the other hand, love to strip naked in the belief that people who don’t yet believe in their cause will suddenly change their minds when exposed to fat, ugly, protesting bodies. It’s a strange theory, yet PETA lunatics, global warming lunatics, supporters of whatever leftist cause you want to name have bared it all for the cameras at one time or another.

Which brings us to this story from South Carolina:

naked protest environment

An artistic mash-up of flesh and bark drew gasps and a chorus of police sirens Saturday at an impromptu photo shoot beneath the majestic canopy of the Angel Oak.

Some 25 people disrobed and posed around the wide, gnarled trunk of the ancient oak as California-based photographer Jack Gescheidt and a documentary film crew recorded the moment in celebration of the tree, which is rumored to be 1,400 years old.

The guerrilla photo shoot was designed to draw attention to the oak’s grandeur and raise concerns about a developer’s plans to build apartments and shops on a larger tract adjacent to the small Johns Island park where the tree lives…

Within three minutes, Charleston police rushed in with sirens blaring and blue lights flashing. The volunteer models were busy hoisting their drawers at that point. They could have taken their time. They were in for long wait as police tried to decide what to do with them. All participants and photographers were detained by police for two hours while they investigated. No charges were filed…

Gescheidt had no permit for the shoot, which was part of his TreeSpirit Project, a collection of photographs featuring naked humans posing vulnerably around trees to call attention to their importance.

We have but one comment: We’ve never seen such a big tree with so many tiny roots.

Liberté, égalité, stupidité: French eco-wackos want to replace trees with non-trees

Trees are so 2010. This is 2011 and yesterday’s old-fashioned foliage has been replaced by Treepods. That’s right. Trees are out, Treepods are in.

Trees are so 2010. This is 2011 and yesterday’s old-fashioned foliage has been replaced by Treepods. That’s right. Trees are out, Treepods are in.

Gizmag.com has the anti-foliage facts:

[A]n initiative from Mario Caceres and Cristian Canonico of the Influx Studio in Paris, working with SHIFTboston, is looking to roll out a man-made forest of air-cleaning Treepods throughout Boston … which are powered by solar and kinetic energy.

I think that I shall never see, God, a poem lovely as a Treepod (perhaps our best photo caption EVER)

SHIFTboston is an incentive aimed at focusing new, exciting, innovative and environmentally responsible ideas to transform Boston into a more dynamic city. Hoping to help the city of Boston reduce its carbon dioxide, Caceres and Canonico from Influx Studio in Paris have come up with what they describe as a CO2-scrubbing living machine called Treepods, that is said to “embody and artificially enhance the capacity of trees to clean the air.”

The carbon dioxide removal process used by Treepods is based on technology developed by Dr Klaus Lackner, director of the Lenfest Center for Sustainable Energy at Columbia University. It enables the energy-efficient capture of carbon dioxide from air. He was inspired by his daughter’s prize-winning 8th grade project which successfully extracted carbon dioxide from the air using a fish tank pump and a battery, and proceeded to create a machine which cleansed the air like a living tree.

Columbia University, the city of Boston and the French. Why are we not surprised that the concept of replacing real trees with ugly, expensive, artificial ones comes from that unholy alliance?

We say it’s a sooper dooper idea. In fact, let’s start bulldozing the Amazon rainforest and installing a bunch of Treepods. Why wait? Let’s start now.

Hilarious: Eco-wackos sobbing like little girls over trees

Video of Earth First environmental lunacy in its full glory as they cry over trees.

The folks at Earth First has always been lunatics. But here’s a video clip that demonstrates that environmental lunacy in its full glory.

“I want to mourn the loss of all the old growth trees I’m seeing and tell them that we love them and that we don’t want them to die and that there are people here who do care. So I want you to know that, trees, that we care.”

You’ll love the sniveling, the sobbing, the wailing and the weeping. And the primal scream is pretty funny, too.
