NO Natural Asset Companies on the Stock Exchange, full stop. To allow this is to usurp the role of nature as a force that "belongs" to everyone and reduce it to a product, thereby eliminating the last vestiges of respect for it. If that fact alone were unacceptable, it should be enough to prevent this; however, this is also an affront to sovereign nations, agriculture as a livelihood, individual rights, and democracy itself through negating the role of elected officials in any decision-making processes. Unacceptable, unacceptable, unacceptable, unacceptable. Please extend the comment period so people who are in the process of having a holiday (i.e. millions of us) have a chance even to HEAR about this and comment. Thank you.
