Today those same values would sell you and your family tobacco, sugar, salt, fat, contaminated foods that are manufacturing  epidemics of illness , death and financial ruin. Those same values then fooled millions that driving the least fuel efficient vehicles scams which ended up making the US transportation sector and economy less efficient then lobbied against and then destroyed the EV1 in early 2000. This while trying to address global climate destabilisation that will wreck the lives of millions. The PB toxic disaster The dead zone in our oceans the destruction of the boreal forest ecosystem in  Alberta due to strip mining and the toxic lakes The plundering of fisheries (Cod, blue fin tuna, sharks, whale) Mountain ecosystem destruction from coal mining global climate destabilisation w Those are the evil values of business that are the focus of the campaign to have large scale long term damage of our environment, the web of life our life support system prosecuted as ecocide by the international Criminal Court. The media which is dependent on the advertising from the auto, development and airline corporations have been silent on the threat that ecocide poises to our future.
