Big luxury SUVs are "bulldozers" against the earth with biodiesel

We are not crazy: The image above is Greenpeace Argentina's way to protest against the country's
efforts to produce soy-based biodiesel. The activist group took a Mercedes ML and a Porsche Cayenne and made them look like bulldozers to illustrate the idea that soy biodiesel destroys native forests and pollutes more than might be expected by most people. The two SUVs featured German flags, because not only these two cars belong to German brands, but because most of Argentina's soy product is exported to the Bundesrepublik.
