Update: Stone Mountain Cancels Artificial 'Snow Mountain'

A little over a week ago, I mentioned that Stone Mountain was wasting 38 Gallons of water per minute for an entire month while building an enormous artificial snow mound on the park's grounds. At the time, the park was stubborn in its refusal to cancel the event despite the water crisis that is gripping the region. However, thanks to the overwhelming pressure from the local media (ahem), the park has finally agreed to scrap their plans and provide refunds to those who had already bought tickets.

This has me thinking, what other ecologically disasterous events could the park put on instead of the snow mountain? The Great Styrofoam-Peanut Bonfire? A recreation of the Exxon-Valdez oil spill? Anybody out there have any ideas?
