Green Anarchy Flag
Last night I turn on the TV and before I can switch to Democracy Now! I see a commercial sponsored by ANGA (America’s Natural Gas Alliance) talking about how natural gas is great. It even illustrates fracking, and says how clean and awesome it is. Wonderful. Corporations with their PR experts and deep pockets will, I have no doubt, successfully scream over the voices of environmentalists and guys like Josh and his documentary Gasland.
Remember the old 60’s refrain, “Turn on, tune in, drop out?” The only way to beat organizations like the ANGA is to tune out out advertising, turn off technology, and drop out of the consumer rat race.
My new mantra? “Tune out, turn off, drop out.”
If you want to read more on the ANGA PR campaign, here’s a great article on the subject.
