I hope you can get some of your peers to help you out on this one Senator Kerry. Seems they're all afraid of big media. I dunno if it's because they take cash from them or are afraid the media might dig up dirt on them. Our 'democracy' is going illiberal awfully fast. Brain Williams is defending his general "friends" that he bonded with in Iraq on his blog, but zippered his lips on the air. Other than that and a brief mention by Keith Olbermann, not a word from the rest of the for profit broadcast media. It's way past time to revisit media ownership rules.
LIES!!!!
whole foods even has a nonGMO education month as well as a new labeling system for vendors to get there products tested for gmos.
this is ALL propaganda . John Mackey would shoot himself before giving into the likes of GMOs
Why do the private capital markets decline to finance new nuclear plants without government loan guarantees? What special insight prompts President Obama to propose $36 billion in such guarantees in the 2012 federal budget -- despite separate estimates by the CBO and the GAO of a more than 50% likelihood of loan default? The taxpayer always seems to get conscripted to underwrite lemon socialism. http://scurvynews.com
on Dow Chemical purporting to announce that Dow would compensate the victims of the Bhopal disaster, it forced Dow to state publicly that it wasn't going to do that.
I'm guessing that this time they were trying to force GE to make a similar public admission about that $3.2 billion. Apparently AP retracted the story too soon for that. All the same, not a bad score. :-)
While Immigrant may think he/she is thinking clearly when creating this morass of a comment, I think contained within these several paragraphs is, perhaps, the highest concentration of fuzzy math and fuzzy thinking I have ever witnessed.
Just two points, and then I'd like the reviewers to consider removing Immigrant's ranting:
1. The wealthiest special interest Lobbyists decide what markets to nurture (oil and gas) and what markets to torpedo (non-commodity energies like wind or solar), so don't tell me "time-honored" western capitalist business practices are anything near a "free" market economy;
2. Human-caused Global Climate Change (aka Global Warming) is not a theory, it is fact. The only theories out there are how fast and how intense will the worst effects be in this century versus next. When you understand that burning just one gallon of gas (derived from oil that was sequestered underground for hundreds of millions or billions of years) is burned, 21 pounds of carbon dioxide are added to the atmosphere. Eight pounds of liquid gasoline when combined with oxygen produces 21 pounds of CO2. Now multiply that number by the number of gallons burned worldwide for the last 100 years or so (on top of coal and other underground carbon sources, like methane natural gas), and you quickly realize that we are changing the composition of our atmosphere forever. 380 parts CO2 per million has never been seen during the time humans have walked the earth.
These are indisputable facts, Not "highly-contested" phenomena. What we need is more scientific literacy and less head-in-the-sand denial in order to inform public policy and create a stable and increasing demand for clean energy. Thank you.
