Bizarre Who funded this study?

It took four university researchers to figure out what an area trashman has known for years: Divorce can hurt the environment.
Elijah Thorne, founder of Grayhound Trash Removal Inc. of Bladensburg, Md. has seen divorcing couples throw away everything from wedding pictures and dresses to perfectly good furniture and even mattresses.

The authors of a study published this month in the journal Nature reached the same conclusion.
"By getting divorced, you could have more impact on the environment," said Jianguo "Jack" Liu, a Michigan State University professor and co-author of the article.

Oh yeah, taxpayers paid for it. Of course! What the hell? These things would be thrown out eventually, anyway. Not that I'm a fan of divorce anything, but still. The argument that people should suffer through a potentially miserable life with each other and put their kids through hell to save the environment is a little strange. I don't want to go into a rant on divorce, I just thought this was a little strange.
