Welcome back trippers!
right back at ya.....(1) there is no proof that the greenzones will benefit ANYONE or anything. There is no quality, peer reviewed, scientific papers showing their effectiveness. Of course, you already know that, as we have been down that path a few months back. Bet you answer now is just the same as it was back then eh! (2) The green agenda is so effective because of the saturation media coverage and bias towards the environment. Nothing like an impending disaster to sell a paper, and the green groups put out a new disaster story every week. Some new species on the way to extinction, another threat to the GBR, etc etc. Problem is, most people can't think for themselves to see through the BS, and take the whole thing hook line and sinker. Most people actually believe these impending disaster stories and swallow the whole precautionary principle approach. Fortunately there are a few people who choose to think for themselves and ask questions.
