Okay...
Using Cyanide to mine gold is completley different than conservation of forests by allowing logging and replanting in its place.
I whole heartedly support logging. Logging is leaps and bounds ahead of what it did to the earth just a few short years ago.
and BTW, theoretically both oranges will rot at the same time, they have a compleley impervious outer skin that will resist any outside effect that doesn't puncture it.
