Bad for the planet, but golfers typically care only about themselves, so no surprise there.
..........And incidentally every year the world's forests decrease especially in the Amazon Rain (soon to be desert). If golfers really cared about their next generation, they would require that 5% of the cost of green fees were sent to an organization for preserving the Amazon and other forests. The US forests are all dry and burning as part of Global Warming, which most golfers are quick to ignore. I could say you folks are only "fore" yourselfs, but I won't.

The are not cutting down many trees to build golf courses in TV. They are building them on old cow pastures...
In fact, they are bending over backwards to PRESERVE the trees they have, since they ADD to the golf course. Not only in beauty, but in making them more challenging...
If you watch the most recent "Living the Dream" regarding the new golf courses, or if you had any clue about actually playing the game or designing a golf course, you'd know that...
To your other RANDOM points... They have nothing to do with golf... Frankly, I'm surprised you didn't add "the death of the coral reefs" to your post!
