If Tides and Greenpeace supported solutions to problems, it could put them out of the activism business.  

The trickle down effect could deal a blow to street meat vendors, banner manufacturers, lawyers, environmental lobbyists and the folks who rent out loudspeakers, bullhorns  and other staging apparatus.  Life in BC`s lower mainland could grind to a halt.

Same goes for the celebrity activists.  They don`t care whether you pay attention to them for their messy personal lives or their heartfelt political causes.  They just want your attention to accumulate personal brand credits that they sell to productions houses.
