I’m not sure The Lord ever mentioned burning animals for heat – sacrifice, yes, but heat? No. Nevertheless, that’s the sort of thing that happens in Godless Europe as it tries to reduce its Carbon-footprint with bio-fuels.
Listen up Europe, the Oil Companies are right – when have they ever let you down?
Heating plant in Sweden burning rabbits killed in city parks to warm homes
Thousands of rabbits taken from Stockholm parks are being used to fuel a heating plant in Sweden, London's Daily Telegraph reported - and animal rights’ activists are hopping mad.
The frozen bunny corpses are transported to a heating plant in central Sweden, where they're incinerated to heat homes.
"Those who support the culling of rabbits think it's good to use the bodies for a good cause," said Anna Johanneson of the Society for the Protection of Wild Rabbits. [Edit EB: Do they have a “Society for the Protection of Rats”!!!]
"But it feels like the power company is trying to turn the animals into an industry rather than look at the main problem," Officials target the rabbits to stem the damage done from their feasting on the parks' plants.
Last year, 6,000 rabbits were killed, the paper reported.
Activists claim it's not only wild rabbits being harvested, but also unwanted pets turned loose in Stockholm's parks.
Johannesson told a local newspaper it's time Swedish parks authorities started thinking outside the hutch for ways to co-exist with the bunnies.
"Helsinki in Finland sprays the plants to make them unappetizing and they have also set up a system of shelters for animals to be donated to," she said.
"They have come much further along than us."
