Been following these topics for decades & I'd barely heard of the Sarawak scandal. But everyone knows the

Good point by
@RewcastleBrown: "all it takes is some research, most people want to hand down the work to others." Happens a lot in activism. -

185+ enviro activists were murdered in 2015 http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/murder-environmental-activists-reaches-all-time-high-180959528/ … one of the most brave endeavors imaginable, esp. in developing countries
