A rubber plantation at Thattekad, India. Can anybody explain to me how nearly 75 years since we put men on the moon, in an age when cars are virtually space ships and computer controlled, we are still driving around on rubber tyres which go "pop" if you drive over a nail? It's all to do with vested interests if you ask me. Just like petrol, rubber tyres could have been replaced years ago but too many people would have lost their fortunes.
