Real solutions are being postponed and the dependence on the fossil fuel economy will be broadened. Earlier at the Climate Conference in Milan, the UN agreed on using genetically modified trees to "absorb" greenhousegasses and accordingly to produce tradeable "carbon credits".

Please read this and then pass it on to other activists, media contacts, friends, family, and anyone else you know ? The issue of toxic chemicals and multiple vaccines has come to the forefront once more following the docu-drama based partly on Andrew Wakefield experiences after discovering measles virus in the gut of children who developed regressive autism shortly after receiving the MMR vaccine, and partly on the horrendous experience by those affected.
