LRT New People's Night - AVIATION EXTRAVAGANZA
22-10-2006 12:11
Aviation is the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions, the emissions from aviation are excluded from the Kyoto protocol and the government has a gargantuan plan of airport expansion over the coming decade.

Bosses of climate change research centre travel by private jet
18-10-2006 12:48
I thought you might find the news below of interest and like to share it with your colleagues and supporters. The bosses of the National Oceanographic Centre in Southampton, which undertakes important climate change research, recently flew to a meeting in the US in a private jet. Staff that I know who work on climate change at the Centre are disgusted by this, but there is little they can do from the inside. So we would really appreciate it if you could spread the word and anyone who feels strongly might like to write a letter or email as suggested.Demo Vs the EuropaBio conference in Greece (+video)

Nuclear Strike on Iran Is Still on the Agenda
17-10-2006 08:11
No nuclear country is likely to intervene when the U.S. uses nuclear weapons against Iran, so there is no military deterrent. The U.S. has now achieved vast nuclear superiority and is about to demonstrate to the world that its $5 trillion nuclear arsenal is not "unusable."

Climate Change and Corporate Litigation Anxiety
14-10-2006 16:52
A recent news item on NPR this week -- legal action against the automotive industry in the USA for its complicity in global warming -- has let the ‘bull’ out of the bag; the ‘cat’ has bolted; the unmentionable has finally been plainly stated! Nothing occurs in a vacuum and climate change is no exception. Liable groups/parties/corporations continue to lobby governments and manipulate public opinion in their efforts to minimise any litigation arising from their complicity in poisoning our planet. Present reality dictates that the future tenability of numerous species, including humans is under threat; nevertheless, profits and economic factors remain the primary consideration for leaders of industry and governments. [This criminally perverse view will ironically prove to be the most expensive error of judgement in human history.]AUSTRALIAN ROOS LET US REJOICE FOR WE ARE FULL OF BULLETS
