Cache as cache can

And another acronym: CACA.

An interesting take on global politics and reporting of same, courtesy of a chap evidently with no life, a worrying grasp of IT and too much time on his hands (but thank heavens for such folk):

BBC - Capitalism harms planet - Morales

Seems to have become (as no trace of the former can be found):

BBC - Leaders warn on biofuels and food

Thing is... why so coy? It's a debate worth having. I'll need to look up the definitions and hence difference between capitalism and consumerism, but it's pretty clear that economic growth almost inevitable equates to wanting, making, using and disposing of ever more stuff, and a limit might well be nigh. Then what?

Not a debate I'd fancy being within collateral damage range of, mind. I can see why they bottled... er... robustly handled it.
