I mean, I totally get the 'killing cute little animals' I mean, I don't think that I personally could kill an animal physically, but that is because I have been wrapped in cotton wool all my life. But less of the social implications of living in a western society and more on the fur. I have to admit, for a long while, I always thought fur was bad because I was told it was bad...

by Janet Albrechtsen, The Australian

CANADA: I am starting to warm to this whole climate change business. Arrived in Vancouver for a night just before 2007 drew to a close. With barely a few hour
