Irony..dont you just love it?


Environmental activists Raoul Surcouf and Richard Spink set sail from Bristol, England, in May on a 40-foot boat outfitted with solar panels and a wind turbine to attempt the first carbon-neutral crossing of Greenland's polar ice cap (a journey being monitored eagerly online in Bristol by 25,000 schoolchildren). However, 400 miles off the coast of Ireland, hurricane-force winds destroyed the boat, and the crew was lucky to be rescued by a nearby ship, which was a tanker carrying 680,000 barrels of crude oil. [The Guardian (London), 5-6-09]

I dont really have a question i just found this funny! Do you think its funny?

Well in my opinion, we should send more oil tankers into the ocean so we can rescue environmental activists.


therefore
