There is no evidence that evolution is correct. It is a "theory" which means: I THINK this is what happened. If one really wishes to investigate the "evolution bunk", one's eyes would be opened. Sorry pal, I did not evolve from a monkey. Last time I checked, monkeys were not popping out "human" babies. Nor were women, popping out monkeys.
In this case, Shell simply decided that's it's marketing campaign of green energy investments was promoting threatening ideas and, generating insufficient advertising benefit. Bio-fuels (starving the third world) and burying pollution underground (at the tax payers expense) were far more profitable and in harsh economic times, knows that the public will be far to worried about keeping their home, feeding their family and panicking about possible medical emergencies, that they would largely ignore the end of the clean green PR=B$. Come on did anybody seriously believe shell was interested in alternative renewable energy beyond a cynical exercise in marketing.
The only source for funds for the development of cheap renewable energy has to be the government, there is no profit in it and the real benefits are the free benefits of a cleaner healthier environment, lower medical costs from a healthier population and of course cheap 'free' energy(beyond initial capital outlay and maintenance).
There is no such thing as "cheap" renewable energy in the wind-solar area. If the government were to subsidize this, it would be at the expense of current energy. In other words our energy prices would double or triple. The government needs to stay out of this arena. Allow people to innovate. Gainsayers have been saying forever that oil is about to run out. Oil and natural gas, are abundant and cheap. Let's use it. Possibly in a few years or decades technology will be better for newer alternative sources. The environment is just fine with current controls. And I don't see people dropping dead from filling their cars up with gas, or from powering their homes with natural gas and oil. You need to come back to reality and stop reading articles from nut jobs. Better remember, the "sun doesn't always shine, and the wind doesn't always blow.
so you are stealing from the original book buyers. That's not a huge deal.
Like hell. You come to my yard sale and try that, you leave missing an arm.*

So you get the 2nd hand book, and scan it into your computer. What's the big deal? Only in the USA it's a big deal. Neither the publishers nor the author are receiving royalties the 2nd time around.

Any monkey knows that "evolution" is theory, not fact. Last time I looked..no humans were giving birth to monkeys.
