From the Guardian, where they’ll print anything as long as its green…
The eco-sex activists who want to save the world
F*** for Forest use porn to spread their green message. In a new documentary, they are taken to the Amazon to meet a threatened Peruvian tribe. But how can they rescue the planet when they can barely look after each other?
‘Blood and sperm. The perfect mix,’ says a tattooed hippy…Life-giving fluids we are all so afraid of. We’re so afraid of ourselves! It’s all organic.’ — ‘A new documentary, ‘F*ck for Forest’, detailing the activities of the group of the same name. They enjoy confronting society with sex, nudity and bodily fluids, but what F*** for Forest (FFF) really want to do is save the world’.
…
Few people would imagine any overlap exists between pornography and environmentalism, but FFF smash the two concepts together right there in their brutally blunt name. It’s a concise signifier of what they do and how little they care about what you think of it. The live displays are a sideline; funds are primarily raised via their website, which has images and videos of its core staff members and whatever volunteers they pick up on the street in myriad sexual permutations, from naked people up trees to chaotic orgies. Subscribers pay about £10 a month, and the proceeds go towards rainforest conservation projects in South America.
More here, if you can stomach it

Some might say “C’est la vie“, personally I think they deserve the freedom to be able to go f*** themselves. 😉

Adds a whole new twist to William F. Buckley’s comment:
“I’d rather be gored by a boar than bored by a Gore.”
Anthony:
I have tried and tried but I cannot find this funny.
It is so sad that it makes me want to cry.

As a Nottingham Forest supporter I think that this demeans my football team.
They sound like that crazy general from Dr. Strangelove. “Precious bodily fluids” and such nonsense.
Ha, irony and perfect timing.
I am currently reading a gripping book:
Noble Savages – My life among two dangerous tribes – the Yanomamo and the
enviromentalistsanthropologists” by Napolean A. Chagnon (yes a French Canadian name).In it, he describes his experiences and study of the Yanomamo Indians on the Venezuela/Brasil border in the Amazon. They were basically a stone age people with slash-and-burn agriculture and the tribes were continuously at war with each other, over sex, frankly.
These enviromentalists should read this book in their hotel in Manaus rather than make any pretences or false claims about nature. Life wasn’t all they believe it to be as a “Noble Savage”. Savage it certainly was … noble?
Oh dear – they really are desperate if they need to bring sex into it.
By the way, you missed bleeping out an eff-word, second to bottom line (if I can say “bottom”) in their second paragraph.
I do hope in this case, sex doesn’t sell. It’s pathetic. [snip]
Wow, just when I think someone can’t do something even more stupid or crazy, someone does. It makes me wonder if there’s any intelligent life on Earth.
Sorry, the last sentence beginning with “Isn’t that” was mine.
Well. according to a Daily Mail survey on student sexual promiscuity:
“Other courses which made the top ten for student promiscuity included Engineering, and sports science.
“Bottom of the list came students studying environmental sciences who reported having 1.71 sexual partners on average since starting university, while those studying Theology were second from bottom with 2.13.”
Perhaps they’re just making up for lost time.

Reminds me of a tune by Frank Zappa and Steve Vai, F#@k Yourself. Lol
Do I smell OSCAR?

That was the wrong thing to say.
And no it wasn’t me in the movie with his nose up Oscar’s butt.

Geez … some guys will do anything to get laid, but I guess this beats the usual tree humping.
But all that strenuous activity just creates more CO2.
“they are taken to the Amazon”
Unless they walked, the planet would have been better served by them staying home.
Just another data point on the hockey stick of increasing societal banality.
Looks they’re finally doing to each other what eco-maniacs have been doing to civilization for decades. 🙂
I once read an article about sex dolls. Now, before I proceed I want to make it quite clear that this was done strictly for um, uh, yeah, investigatory purposes; yeah that’s it. Furthermore, I want to make it clear that this was strictly an intellectual pursuit. How weasely does that sound? But I kid you not when I say that I discovered that the ancients did indeed construct sex dolls. Made of wood. Perhaps an exotic wood. How they dealt with the splinters I’ll never know. Ooh. Ouch. Yeow. Ouch. So, if the CAGW crowd wants to return us to pre-industrial society, well, I ain’t pickin’ splinters outta any of ’em.
I thought all of the eco loons were screaming about overpopulation?
Given that there is more free porn on the internet than a single human being can watch in their entire lifetime (several times over) you kinda gotta hand it to these guys. They have figured out how to make porn, get paid for it, and make their customers feel good about themselves for paying for it.
That did not come out the way I meant. But every other way I phrased it was worse…
Somehow i don’t think Kevin Trenberth’s science is out of place on a porno thread.
Kevin Trenberth Loses His Strawberries
As greenhouse gases still accrete
This captain of the climate wars
Is searching for the missing heat
That he believes the ocean stores
The missing heat’s the missing key!
Why ice will melt and swell the tides!
The Kraken that he knows must be!
That Davy Jones’ locker hides!
(The soul’s more heavy than we think
A truth that everyone must face
And to what depths a soul may sink!
O! To what dark and dismal place!
Our Captain Trenberth can’t withstand
The stress of twenty thousand leagues
He tumbles in his restless hand
The three steel balls that once were Queeg’s
MY GEOMETRIC LOGIC PROVES
HEAT TELEPORTS FROM PLACE TO PLACE!
FROM SKIES INTO THE DEPTHS IT MOVES
AND IN BETWEEN IT LEAVES NO TRACE!)
(When silent faces stare at you
Its best like Queeg to shut your jaw
But Trenberth’s rant is never through
For he believes they stare in awe!}
It is possible that some people may not be familiar with the courtroom scene in The Caine Mutiny.

Yet another corollary to Murphy’s Law:
In a world of six-billion people, any behavior that can happen will happen. So not only is it not surprising that this happened, it had to happen.
It is a little surprising that any journal would give them coverage . . . but wait, this is The Guardian. Never mind.
