Sustainable development blog : ecology and humanitarian aid

15th century : "Tribal people must be taken away from their dubious archaic faith : we must evangelize them... And in the process why not deplete their lands out of their valuable resources ?"

21h century : "Gosh, because of those nosy little activists, we are no longer free to make business as we used to do. Let's pretend we are helping tribes out about their exploiting natural resources. Let's fake theyneed to be taught how to live sustainably, them short-sighted fellas who certainly are unaware of the environment preservation's stakes."
