I’ve never heard of any environmental destruction being caused by Microsoft. I’m not a fan of their practices from the points of view of healthy industry competition or quality assurance, but on a grander scheme they’re nothing like many other corporations.

I guess not but they aren't exactly pro-environment either (but then try finding any large company that is. :P). Before I miss the point entirely though, M$ are greedy, and only care about thier money and thier dominance of the computer industry, instead of anything else - A behaviour which is shared also by other, more destructive companies. It can't be good for the environment in any way, shape or form, IMO. And for this, it seems weird that they would publish anything like MO. Get my meaning? (And yes, I'm aware Fuzzle Guy posted something similar to this. :P I just scrolled down and re-read. oops. :S But I guess that means I agree with him.)

Also, Oddworld isn't trying to preach to the world about the wrongs of what we're doing, they're trying to make a good game. If they believed that strongly in the environment, then they'd be living in mud huts telling stories, not making computer games.

I know that too, I mis-worded things again. :P OWI just spreads the word against exploitation and corporate greed using thier own parodies to tell a story, and in turn uses that as an excuse to be creative, make movies and games, and make thier own cash. :P But then there's nothing wrong with that, it makes thier fans more aware.
