Fucking Koalas.
How is me putting money into a bucket held by some poor greebo in a sweaty koala suit supposed to aid the environment?

Same goes for Greenpeace - yeah, wah, wah the Frogs blew up your boat in New Zealand. Wah! & now you are a multi-million dollar corporate enterprise. An acquaintance used to work in their local marketing dept. He earnt a LOT of money. Enough to completely refit the Sea Shepard. Probably.

We had a party for this in one our school elections - Land Rights for Gay Whales. We didn't win.

Paying their staff a decent wage?
Why, the nerve of these people...

For an organisation
that elicits donations from the public to "Save the Environment" you've gotta ask how they afford to have such a well paid top-heavy management setup.
Don't you?

Not really, no.
I doubt they'd ever achieve much if they relied solely on volunteers!

Oh dear.
It seems we have reached an impasse. You believe what you believe & I have my own views.
I suggest that we agree that we don't share the same views on this topic and go about our business.

What if I gang up on your side?
Will that help?

Only the UK Charities Commission did a report last year, the headline for which was that many of the most popular charities have vast assets (untaxed, natch) that make them nearly as much as they get form public donations, and they pay their senior execs like they're senior corporate managers (who earn too much themselves).

And don't get me started on the self-serving aid "industry"...
