Planet Slayer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Planet Slayer is a controversial[1] environmentalist website for children owned by Australian Broadcasting Corporation. The site features a "Greenhouse Calculator" which says the age a person needs to die if they are not to "overuse their share of the earth".[2] The site has also been criticized for attacking those who eat meat, blue collared workers such as loggers, and nuclear energy.[3] ABC managing director Mark Scott said the site was not designed to offend anyone, but instead have children think about environmental issues.[4]
