While I don't agree with the op, you're kind of proving their point...

I don't know. All I know is that the exhibition is purposely -- and even justifiably -- provocative. :)

Sorry but you completely misunderstand me. I am not claiming to be a victim at all?

I am not making a normative statement. I actually kind of appreciate the effort of the museum. But being astonished by the intended outrage is kind of... I don't know, naive?

You are astonished that people are upset over gross discrimination?

Beef is fed (extra) soy. A lot of porc as well

They are also questions that are almost impossible to truly prepare yourself for. Although discussing them beforehand surely does help.

Depending on your hometown, that's a terrible philosophy.

I am pretty sure much, probably most, of the US's deserts will remain desert. But otherwise I agree: deserts are beautiful and not just empty. But hey, the US is addicted to energy and as long as that's the case this is probably the least damaging way to generate that energy.

I have an active account and it also didn't pop up in pwned.

Let me know if you find it!

You mean a CO^2 ^tax? Yes please!

Well I definitely see Ryanair making detours to, say, Algiers to tank cheaply.

The best and most elegant solution.

I would add a third option there: the aviation lobby is too strong, sufficiently suppressing the urge to find solutions. ;)

Indeed, but aviation is slightly more mobile than say steel production. It's a bad excuse nonetheless, if you ask me!

Now I don't agree with it (in fact, I am strongly opposed to the tax exemption), but the reasoning is that this way you create an 'even playing field' for aviators all across the globe. In other words: it's doesn't become more attractive to tank in Arab Gulf states, making their airlines out-compete European airlines.
