1. This is part of Global Warming caused by melting of glaciers ....

Global Warming is THE issue which will swamp all others --

It is still being hidden especially by the control over government exerted

by OIL and COAL industries --

As Al Gore confirmed in his recent Rolling Stone article ...

"Congress is controlled by the OIL and COAL industries" --



We've had more than 50 years of warning on this issue -- actually much more because

scientists became aware of the impact on nature back in the 1880's -- but we've certainly

known about the Greenhouse model since at least the 1950's --

We've had every opportunity to respond by stopping the burning of fossil fuels --

We are in this desperate situation because of the greed of those who have been given

private control over our natural resources ---

We've had 50 years of lies from ExxonMobil --



We need to begin to shut down the nuclear reactors in US -- 106 of them!!

And those across Europe and in Japan -- an earth-quake prone island!!

It takes 6 months to shut down ours -- one year to shut down those in Japan given their

design -- and I don't know if either provides time to properly dispose of the WASTE!


This may one day make the difference between "a whimper or a bang" -- !!
