Some news items just speak for themselves: Environmentalists erected a 28-foot-tall coffin on Saturday to protest against plans to build a thermoelectric power plant they say will pollute Chile's southern coastline…
The protesters say the plant, which will be fired by coal shipped from Australia, will foul the air, pollute artisan fishing waters and poison groundwater in an area of forests…
"Madame President: You choose who to kill," activists wrote on the wooden coffin that is so tall organizers have sent in a record-breaking claim to the Guinness Book of Records.
I have no further comment to make.
