=v= WWF really goes in for corporate funding, and part of their
cozy relationship is to have oil industry executives on their
board. I decided to cancel support of the WWF when they acted
as a fig leaf over an oil pipeline through wetlands in Papua
New Guinea. I became an active opponent of them (and many of
the mainstream enviro groups that solicit for funds in the U.S.)
when they threw their support behind NAFTA.
