  Kyoto, Copenhagen, Rio summits go up in Smoke posted by pru, 2012-06-23 13:31:03
Rio+20 goes the same way -- FAILURE -- as all previous summits on the environment. The overriding singular reason is plain to see; the combined force of financial and corporate self-interest sabotage any hope of environmental pollution reform. The singular cause of failure for all these summits has at least been made plain to the world. Disproportionately wealthy minority elites, at great cost to the environment and global population, relentlessly pursue their own interests, and why shouldn't they? (full story and 1 comments)

 Study: Renewable sources could supply 80% of U.S. electricity by 2050 posted by Stephen C. Webster via stele, 2012-06-21 12:10:51
If the U.S simply committed to building out the transmission infrastructure, the Department of Energy (DOE) believes that currently existing renewable energy technology “is more than adequate” to supply up to 80 percent of the nation’s daily electricity use by the year 2050, a new study has found.

 Great Barrier Reef at Risk posted by staff report via baz, 2012-06-02 02:03:46
Have no doubts regarding which interests Oz governments serve today. Everyone seems to be benefiting from the Oz mining boom except the Australian people! Billions in profits are siphoned off for corporate elites, Transnationals and Banks but precious little goes into necessary services and infrastructure. Substandard Oz health and dental services continue to suffer due to lack of 'available' funds -- a very odd scenario despite the FACT that it is the PEOPLE that legally OWN the nation's natural wealth.

 Fukushima: Thousands of Tonnes of Radioactive water pour into the Pacific Daily posted by blogger via radium, 2012-06-01 23:48:52
Japan has given up attempting to contain the billions of litres of radioactive water used to cool stricken Daiichi reactors at Fukushima; with international approval the highly polluted water has been allowed to flow directly into the Pacific Ocean since the time the initial disaster struck. Consider the amount already leaked, then consider the amount yet to be dumped into the Pacific, as there is no easy method available to stabilise these stricken reactors. Fukushima is an international disaster in progress. (full story and 1 comments)

Oz Carbon Tax - no effect whatsoever on Global Emissions or Climate! posted by rae, 2012-05-25 13:11:12
It is clear that the banker-corporate designed Carbon Tax that Juliar Gillard dutifully imposed on the people of Australia will have no effect whatsoever on global emissions or climate. But it will provide a huge bounty for banks and government with increased costs across the board for average Aussies. (full story)

Plume-gate: Secret documents prove Fukushima Radiation Disaster posted by Ethan A. Huff via sal, 2012-05-14 23:36:33
A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed by Friends of the Earth (FoE), Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR), and the Nuclear Information and Resource Center (NIRS) has unearthed a shocking series of new evidence proving a deliberate, global cover-up of the true severity of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster. And the unfortunate reality is that the mainstream media continues to blatantly ignore this colossal scandal. (full story)

Eugenicist Alert! Drastic Reduction of Global Population Required by Ruling Elites posted by John Vidal via stan, 2012-04-26 22:20:32
Prior warning has been given numerous times on this site now the Corporate media is running a most revealing story on the "need" to "drastically reduce the global population." Have no illusions, we write for the historical record not for the useless slaves that are led bleating like sheep to the slaughter.
Regardless of accompanying subterfuges, when they release their lab created DEADLY human bird flu virus, go get 'em, you useless, gutless, moron slaves -- LOL! [THEY have a vaccine which they will never release to the masses, be aware of Big Pharma fakes and take your chances!] (full story)

 Unprecedented fungal threats to ecosystem, health and food supply posted by research report via gan, 2012-04-14 10:43:24
"The past two decades have seen an increasing number of virulent infectious diseases in natural populations and managed landscapes. In both animals and plants, an unprecedented number of fungal and fungal-like diseases have recently caused some of the most severe die-offs and extinctions ever witnessed in wild species, and are jeopardizing food security. Human activity is intensifying fungal disease dispersal by modifying natural environments and thus creating new opportunities for evolution. We argue that nascent fungal infections will cause increasing attrition of biodiversity, with wider implications for human and ecosystem health, unless steps are taken to tighten biosecurity worldwide." -- Nature (full story)

  'Limits to Growth' Warning confirmed in latest Study posted by dwayne, 2012-04-08 01:11:48
A recent study by Australian CSIRO scientist, Graham Turner, confirms that the world 'end game' scenario projected by an earlier (1972) MIT study is not only accurate but is ahead of schedule. The original study was commissioned by the Rockefellers and other eugenicists at the time. It verifies the end of the world as we know it if today's levels of consumption/'growth' are not drastically curtailed. (full story)
