OK I'm being suckered into buying this stuff (sometimes paying a fortune for it) and am struggling to see any results. I would like to think that there is a magic cream, but I don't think there is. Why do we buy these products when deep down we know they don't do what they say on the box?

only in the short term

OK I've completed all the Interest surveys & sponsored polls and wonder what happens next. How do I manage to get more points. I thought there may be some normal surveys to complete, but if there is I can't find them. I did come accross something telling me I could earn more points if I gave my view to an opinion (if it was over 80 words) but I got nothing. Help please anyone!!

wish i knew! ivankafka what is the other site?

Apparently every year an area of rainforest the size of Wales is lost in Indonesia by slashing and burning the trees in order to grow crops to produce palm oil mainly for bio fuel. The rainforest there is fast disappearing along with the creatures that inhabited it and it seems a terrible price to pay just so we can have more fuel. Should we be seeking an alternative to bio fuels?

I don't think the technology to produce biofuels is cost effective to the environment and as far as I'm concerned is far from 'green'. Biofules are generaly made from cane suger & maize which produces ethanol. To fill a large vehicle with biofuel it requires crops that would feed about one person per year. When you look at the third world countries (which I'm sure would be the ones that suffer the most) this is surely a bad idea. Not to mention the fact that more & more forests are being devastated to grow more ethanol crops, which is bad for global warming & local habitat. I'm much more of a fan of Electric energy, which is not anywhere near as harmful to the environment.
