Can’t believe no one else said it..
WIND!!!
BREAKER!!!
Omg Earth Fire Wind Water and Heart!
Goooooooooo planet!
PETA’s not an environmental group; they are an animal rights group. Some of its positions, such as opposing the removal of invasive species, are actively detrimental to the environment.
Many of their positions are actively detrimental to animal rights as well. (For example their preference for euthanasia over the horrible indignity of being a human’s pet.)
They do not support euthanasia for all domesticated animals as an alternative to just being a pet. They euthanize animals who have terminal conditions, just like veterinarians do.
If they were opposed to humans having pets, why do they promote adoption?
actually they are opposed to people having pets, especially their president, she’s said so herself in documentaries and interviews
They would rather euthanize an animal in a way that they deem appropriate (in the back of a van) rather than give the animal a chance to be adopted at an animal shelter. Don’t give PeTA a damn thing, you’ll help more animals with half the money if you give it to your local Humane Society.
THANK YOU
I totally agree. I’ve been vegetarian for quite some time, and while I support some of their points, I couldn’t imagine a worse way to promote them.
*hands you a trophy and a gold medal*
that’s not appropriate. I know some 5th Graders who look on this site. Watch it! (although I aggree w/ u)
Oh my father…not one of you types of people..
PETA’s president also sent a letter to Ben & Jerry’s suggesting they use human milk for their ice cream ( http://www.peta.org/mc/NewsItem.asp?id=11993 ) because it is unethical and unhealthy to get all that milk from cows…
that is like totally nasty
Now THAT makes no sense at all.
2008 records show that they found adoptive homes for 7 out of the 2,216 animals that they took in. There is no way you can tell me that the other 2,209 were completely unadoptable and should have been euthanized.
Also, that would be for the Norfolk, Virginia hq
“They euthanize animals who have terminal conditions, just like veterinarians do.”
No, they euthanize almost all animals that come into their possession as they take in many more animals they they can afford to host and euthanize them instead.
For the record, faunablues, PETA euthanizes every single animal they “rescue.”
The president is a bit of a sociopath, too.
And I thought animals were part of the environment my whole life. Boy, am I stupid.
They should also get better “coolness rating”. I don’t know much about them – I don’t even know if they have any activity in my country and I do eat meat.
However, I’ve understood that they protest against using furs by having beautiful young women walk on the streets with little or no clothing. How in hell does that not get a better coolness factor??
Because these same women are seen later in fur.
they’re the same group that attacks people who do choose to wear fur/leather…
they’re worse than abortion clinic bombers, at least those lunatics have religion to blame for their crazy
You should do some research.
How about this… They support known terrorist? Their hate campaigns regularly target children? The celebrity spokespersons they use don’t practice what they preach?
im sure that no one really cares what the PETA really is. and you don’t need to go around telling people that their opinion is wrong.
I like how the y-axis is so accurately labeled- “y-axis”, just to alleviate any potential confusion.
Actually in my world it would be labelled the “Why-axis”. But I’ll stop right there before I get endlessly flamed…. again…
lol
I always thought Mati, who has the power of heart, was somekind of überlame.
Yeah, like the kid brother their mom made them take with them on all their adventures. I liked the guy who had fire, but he almost never got to use it.
Yeah, the Power of heart really doesn’t belong in it because the other four are natural elements, but I guess the makers felt they needed one power for each continent or something. It was quite typical how of course (the kid from) North America had the power of fire, now that you think of it…
But then wouldn’t there have been seven people who were apart of the team (thereby making even lamer representations)?
Antarctica would’ve been represented by a penguin.
Theretically, yes. Why don’t you train an Antarctican penguin to shout something like “Mind!” while lifting its wing to activate the ring you somehow attached to it, and then go to the creators to propose a remake
Theoretically*
NONE of these groups are cool at all, except Captain Planet!
The others are all terrorist groups.
The bar for People Eating Tasty Animals (or Pathetic Egotistical Tyrants for Animals or whatever you want to call them) should dip way below the x-axis!
The Sea Shepherds are the all-time coolest activist group ever! They have their own REAL television show!
They aren’t activists. They’re pirates. They attack and board ships illegally. That’s called piracy. People used to be hung for what these criminals do.
Animal Planet should be ASHAMED for showing them and promoting their terrorism.
Oh come on, what’s not cool about throwing bottles of piss or acid at Japanese scientists?
/sarc
hahahahaha. win.
Definatly. And The coolest of all? Bob Hunter
Well, PETA sucks, I will agree on that one.
P.E.T.A.
People for the Eating of Tasty Animals
is that what peta really stands for
Of course! What else would it stand for?!
People for the Euthanization of Treatable Animals.
So the defining difference between cool environmental groups and uncool ones, is that cool ones are on television shows and uncool ones aren’t *facepalm*
No. Cool ones go up and do some cool action, while uncool ones are boring, lame and keep trying to convince you to do stupid stuff such as stop eating animals and s**t.
They’re all losers…
By your powers combined, I am better than PETA.
i’m a vegan… and i still say that PETA needs to stfu!
What about the WWF?
Wrestling stopped being cool in the 90′s.
I know you’re kidding but wrestling is the WWE now
As long as my blood is the last to stay standing, I could care less about the environment or those weaker creatures.
FAIL
Agree. Grammatically, conceptually and ideologically.
Dude, your a penguin… you don’t even have aposabl thumbs!
1. PETA sponsors and supports terrorists who blow up animal testing sites (many of which go to benefit ANIMALS, not just humans). Fact: on avergae, 99% of animal testing is done on RATS specifically bred to be tested on. Get over it PETA. No one cares how much you make up.
2. Whale Wars guys are terrorists and criminals. They are actually wanted internationally and FAKED and STAGED much of what you see on thier b.s. show. For example, they PRETENDED to be held hostage after going on some fishing company’s boat and attcking them for doing nothing more than their job. Typical middle-class white morons. Think they know what’s “best” for everyone else in the world.
You are all too right, Cathy. PETA doesn’t have a clue about modern animal tests, and the creator of Whale Wars is an infamous media manipulator.
That show is almost too irritating to watch. The Sea Shepherds smugly narrate their every observation of other ships to mark them as murderers, vandals, cowards et cetera. They harass and assault other ships to until they can get an aggressive response, then act completely surprised when the other side fights back. The SS can be warned repeatedly about retaliation w/ flashbangs, put in earplugs and shades, and still pretend they knew nothing about how and why the other ship is attacking.
They’ll describe every bang, pop and piece of flying debris as “gunfire” intent in killing them; which is probably another lie since most of SS seem comfortable enough out in the open to stop what they’re doing play for the camera and narrate about how the mean whalers are picking on them.
The ALF is not an “organization,” really, but a name given to several independent, small cells of individuals. The lack of any connection between the cells or leaders is why the FBI has a hard time cracking down on them and resorts to investigating common leafleters (and typically, if you’re breaking several laws to liberate animals, you probably won’t be leafleting/doing animal activism in the daytime). So, how is it that PETA can sponsor such a group if they have no headquarters or no leader? PETA receives anonymous pictures and video and publishes it. That also means that any news station who shows those types of videos are also “supporting” terrorists.
I really think there’s a double standard of what’s considered terrorism. An acquaintance of mine had his house raided on account of his leafleting (with an organization) against the LA Animal Services (for mismanaging their shelters, not doing more to limit euthanasia, etc). Yet I see videos of demonstrators in England breaking in windows and defacing banks in the name of the economy, and the news just describes them as “upset,” not terrorists. Is the fact that these acts are done in the name of money make them better than someone doing in it in the name of protecting animals?
Fact: PETA cares about rats just as much as other animals, so what does it matter if 99% of the animals used are rats? Notably, rats are one of the types of animals to whom no animal welfare restrictions apply. None. Is protesting against that really so bad? Additionally, at least for Europe, a little over 50% vertebrates used are mice, about a fifth are rats, a sixth amphibians/fish (using zebrafish is common), and the rest are other vertebrates. Saying something is “fact” doesn’t make it so
Thank you for speaking the truth. I felt surrounded by the guys from consumer freedom.
Umm… maybe because (generally speaking) whales are an ENDANGERED SPECIES? I don’t see a threat of cows, sheep or pigs becoming extinct anytime soon…
Actually, without humans keeping them alive, cows, sheep, pigs and just about every other domesticated animal would die out within the year. So, technically, food animals are even more endangered than whales =P
Not pigs. Wild pigs in North America are descendants of those left by Spanish explorers. In some places they are considered overpopulated.
Good thing they’re delicious then, huh?
Citation?
Imho it should be the Planeteers, not Captain Planet. One man cannot be a group!
PeTA – Organization of fanatics that emphasize on not killing animals, yet they euthanize animals themselves (look at “giant freezer” in their tax returns) and don’t want pets.
Greenpeace – Bunch of hippies who have no idea what they’re talking about. They helped kill nearly a million people in Africa for convincing leaders of the nation to NOT accept food that could have grown and produced plentiful crops and fed nearly, if not all the population of the country. These are the same people who claim that plants are Genetically Engineered with Animal Genes, which they don’t, and cannot do legally, and claim that GE foods go under no regulation by the FDA/USDA while they’re in fact the most regulated foods on the market.
Modern hippies. They never do research and follow whatever “Sister Sue with the Pot” tells them is good.
Where does the Sierra Club fall on this scale?
Al Gore won the Nobel Prize; what the hell did Captain Planet do to top that?
Wear a cool costume and have super powers.
What, no Philippe Cousteau and EarthEcho? He’s the hottest thing since the strike-anywhere match!!!
captain planet he’s a hero
gonna bring pollution down to zero
the whale wars guys would be the sea shepherds
The Planeteers are the only group shown here that I can get behind. Walk-in freezers? Vigilante pirates? No thanks.
P.E.T.A.
People.
Eat.
Tasty.
Animals.
WOOT!!!
How did PETA get that high?
Hey… guess what ad is showing in the right column for me??? Pest control. LOL what a FAIL.
