Cheesy Green Police Video

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uASd-doKOlk&rel=1[/youtube]We have never seen these “green police” in action, but we’d like to believe that they exist, if only in our dreams. This video is a cheesy commercial for Israel’s Environmental Protection Ministry police, and what they will do to you if you pollute. Watch out! It’s in Hebrew, which makes their Cops-esque slogan sound even scarier: “Those who pollute, will pay.”Rumor has it, that Israel has great laws for protecting the environment, but great difficulties in enforcing them. Budgetary contraints are the reason. A while back, we read that the Ministry was to be hiring private firms that would be collecting fines levied on polluters. It would be interesting to know if any progress has been made.
