I put myself through college only to realize that the all but required next step was to add an unpaid internship to that expensive degree. This was financially impossible as the loans which paid for said expensive degree were now needing payments. Coupled with cost of living there was no way to continue my internship, thus making my degree practically worthless in finding work.

Unpaid internships are simply out of reach to those of meager upbringing. As such they provide the necessary experience for quality jobs only to those who can afford it and thus furthers class divides.

The idea that I should work for free because you provide me the equipment that is necessary to do the work which you need done is awfully weak. Interning as a student however is not the issue. Provided you are receiving actual work experience and not just mopping floors they will not likely be effected by this (as best I understood).

"He’s about to become the world’s first "carbon" billionaire"

sounds like pushing one side to me. a side that doesn't even exist in the referenced article.

wow. so we go from

"Critics, mostly on the political right and among global warming sceptics, say Mr. Gore is poised to become the world’s first "carbon billionaire,"

To carbon billionaire as fact?

Gore was born into money. He's also been working on this for 30 yrs. Now that he's going to see return on his investment he has ulterior motives?

Stay off the politics neatorama.

while most of this is easily written off as make believe. the little mermaid tid-bits are really hard to deny.

and if you think a few penis jokes, are the worst disney had to offer, you just don't have a clue.

outside of racism and hidden "revenge drawings" they were really just an utter hindrance on the movement of animation and cartoons. stale, sanitized, boring and overdone.

sorry dogrun but i fear you're wrong.

the fisherman will go out in competition to get as many fish as possible to earn as much money for their crew as possible. the companies will not fish their way out of business. it is the market who will eat their way out of business.

look at the ridiculousness of the 'sushi trend' in the states, and to a lesser extant the rest of the western world. A restaurant with even the slightest hint of asian cuisine now proudly boasts that they have a sushi bar. You can sushi at that chinese place, with your thai food, sushi and tacos, sushi at the grocery store, sushi at your college cafeteria, sushi at the 7-11. There is a huge demand for it and it's not going away. When the tuna is gone we'll move onto spicy bass rolls.

I loved the concerned conservationist who can't take the step to change their habits, myself included.

But even worse are the lovely folk who see multiple signs of the damage we cause to the planet and the ripples those have and toss their hands in the air saying "so now we're to blame for xyz? i thought it was abc? it's always something isn't it"

Yes it is always something. Everything action has a reaction. In the case of very interconnected ecosystems it's usually multiple reactions, and they're usually all bad.
