"Our Mountains: the Selling-off the Mountains"
The mountains are landmark of many regions. So it seems obvious to use them for advertising. Wherein is the border to benefit, use and capitalize on them? How many human being tolerates the mountain? Do we have already overdrawn? People with different backgrounds give their opinions in a round table discussion, if the direction, we head for, is the right one.
