Actress Gwyneth Paltrow, a long-time "champion" of the environment, ended a small celebration in Hollywood, California involving a newly released video by British singer Paul McCartney, stepped into her car and went to dinner with her husband on April 18, 2012.  The restaurant was four doors down the street - ''0.06 of a mile'' - and took approximately 10 seconds, while several others who were at the same event and went to the same restaurant walked the distance in less than a couple minutes.  The car she was in - a chauffeured Lincoln Town Car - is a gas guzzler, getting 15 miles per gallon or less in the city.<ref>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2131511/Gwyneth-Paltrow-driven-0-06miles-video-launch-restaurant-doors-away.html</ref><ref>http://www.tribute.ca/news/index.php/environmentalist-gwyneth-paltrow-drives-10-seconds-to-restaurant/2012/04/19/</ref>

====Liberals are trashy====

As with the inauguration of President Obama on January 20, 2009, liberals have demonstrated in mass numbers their own disdain for taking care of the environment; the earth is a trash can to them.  On October 2, 2010, thousands of liberals who expressed desires of socialism and big government descended on Washington D.C., in part to counter the Glen Beck "Restoring Honor" rally a few weeks before.  Thousands of pounds of signs, trash, and garbage was strewn upon the grounds of the Mall, the Lincoln Memorial, the World War II Memorial, and the Washington Monument;<ref>http://deathby1000papercuts.com/2010/10/one-nation-what-if-they-gave-a-rally-and-only-unions-and-commies-showed-up/</ref><ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jsG3RbfBug</ref><ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0Hn-fDLk58&feature=related</ref> by comparison, Beck's rally - which had tens of thousands more people - had no litter problem whatsoever.<ref>http://www.breitbart.tv/national-mall-left-spotless-after-beck-rally/</ref>

'''Oil tanker SS ''Prestige'''''

'''Oil tanker SS ''Prestige'''''

Spain, a member of the [[Kyoto]] accords, refused to permit a stricken oil tanker, SS ''Prestige'' into a safe harbor; the reason given was to prevent pollution in Spanish waters.  On November 19, 2002, the ''Prestige'' sank, spilling more than 77,000 tons of fuel oil - which could have been pumped out of the ship while docked - into the open ocean, which washed ashore within days onto much of the Atlantic coastal areas of Spain, Portugal, and France.<ref>http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/SC0311/S00074.htm</ref>
