Vintage T-Shirt: Ax Men Become Conservationists

Has deforestation taken a back seat on the social agenda in recent years, amid the wars, financial crises and anything else the media has a momentary fixation on? 

I remember the good old days when it wasn't uncommon to flick on the evening news and see a couple of dishevelled protesters strapped to the base of a 40 ft Pine.  I'd watch eagerly, hoping for some confrontation.  In the eyes of their supporters, they were martyrs.  To their critics, they were ferals.

Wonderpunk Vintage Retro Funny T-Shirts: 'Reformed Loggers Society'

I suppose the topic is as much at the forefront today as it ever has been, only now it's discussed in the broader context of climate change.  Whilst logging per se hasn't been on my radar for a while now, I take comfort in the knowledge that the likes of Greenpeace and The Wilderness Society continue to fight for a tree's rights!

 
 

The Reformed Loggers Society is a support group for former ax men.  Though they live with the sap on their hands of scores of tree fatalities, there is a hope.

Vintage T-Shirt: The World's Most Violent City

A lot of people believe that Johannesburg is the most violent city in the world, although not according to recent data.  The un-esteemed title goes to the capital of Venezuela, Caracas, with a homicide rate of 130 for every 100,000 residents.


Don't let this put you off though, Carcass Caracas boasts a range of things to do and see, such as stately gardens (Jardin Botanico), a museum of contemporary art (Museo de Arte Contemporaneo), and of course the hallowed halls of academia (Ciudad Universitaria de Caracas).  What's not to like?  Clearly the Caracas tourism comission has a lot to work with.


Don't mean to alarm anybody, but is the sign above suggesting that in its absence, the activity is permitted?  eek..., perhaps a bullet proof vest would be an appropriate accompaniment.
