We Are Not Alone No words are necessary, just please watch the video. July

Do People Really Understand? June
24, 2010 The problems highlighted in the main stream media regarding our energy issues barley scratch the surface. The problem in the Gulf of Mexico is a major catastrophe. Mountaintop removal mining is a travesty. The possibility of a nuclear power plant meltdown is a constant and major threat. Global warming and climate change are extremely serious issues that can not be ignored. All of these issues are important, but all pale in comparison to the biggest problem we are facing, few people talk about it.
8 Presidents over 36 Years June
19, 2010 On the Daily Show the other day, Jon Stewart pointed out some very interesting information, something I had not thought of. Over the course of the last 36 years and through 8 presidencies, there has been a running theme. For those of you that did not see the show, please allow me to elaborate.
Gasland, the movie June 18, 2010 On Monday June 21, at 9PM, HBO is premiering a film called "Gasland."
I highly recommend the film, especially in the light of current affairs. Mr.

Follow the Money June
17, 2010 As I sit here watching the Senate hearing with BP CEO Tony Hayward, I naturally start thinking about how much money the oil companies give directly to our so-called duly elected representatives. As you know, it is my personal and professional opinion that our representatives do not act in our best interest first, they consider us second and consider first those that pay them more money then we do.
Stop Corporate Domination June
14, 2010 In order to achieve any of the goals of change regarding anything and everything, we must separate major corporate influence from our government. It is painful obvious that our government represents them first and us second, this must stop. I have written a short film called "A Supreme Larceny", it is in response to the Supreme Court's Campaign Finance Ruling. It is a real important film, it is sarcastic and funny with a very serious message at the end. I am trying to raise money to make the film. As always, I am accepting donations and I am also selling the cast and crew t-shirts that will also be appearing in the film. The shirts are $20.00 a piece plus shipping. If you are interested in buying one or more please contact us and if you want to read the script let me know and I will send it to you. Please help us in this venture.

Oil, Coal, And Nuclear Energy June
04, 2010 As we muddle through this recent oil drilling disaster we have to slow down and take a harder look at our energy system. Many people are talking about it. Since 1940, over 1,600 people have died in the name of coal, and since 1970 over 1,250 have died in the name of oil. Being that I am personally convinced that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan the result of corporate imperialism, mainly for the oil industry, you can add tens of thousands of deaths to those numbers.
Here we go May
14, 2010 On CNN last night, (Anderson Cooper 360), Ian R. MacDonald, an oceanographer at Florida State University, told Anderson Cooper that he estimates the BP oil leak in the gulf is not spilling 5,000 barrels a day like BP estimated, but 70,000 barrels with a margin of error of +/- 20%. That means that it could be as low as 56,000 barrels or as much as 84.000 barrels. That blows my 50 day theory all to hell.
We Are Halfway There (bad news) May
13, 2010 As of May 16, the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico will have spilled about half as much oil as the Exxon Valdez did in 1989. The Gulf leak is pouring about 5000 barrels of oil a day into the water, the Exxon Valdez spilled 250,000 barrels into the Prince William Sound. If the oil leak in the Gulf is allowed to continue for 50 days we will surpass the Exxon Valdez disaster.
Tire Recycling May
07, 2010 With the recent clean-up that we did on April 24 up here in Wrightwood, (cleaned up illegal dumping), I have learned much about a problem that exists in the upper desert. Well, it exists everywhere but the upper desert in Southern California is my back yard. The problem is tires. There are piles of tires all over the desert that have been illegally dumped. Now, some of those tires have been dumped by people that just don't care, those are easy to spot because they are usually right next to other miscellaneous junk and hazardous waste that the same individuals have dumped.
Earth Day Clean Up May
06, 2010 On Saturday April 24, we sponsored a major clean-up day in Wrightwood in celebration of Earth Day. We put together a group of about 20 people including 5 Boy Scouts from the local troop. With the help or CR&R, the local waste services company who donated a 40 yard dumpster, we cleaned up a great deal of illegal dumping that has been taking place up here in the mountains.
Opposites Attract April
30, 2010 In the news this week are two totally opposite stories with only two things in common, energy and the ocean. The first story, as we all know, is the aftermath of the sinking of the Deepwater Horizon, the offshore drilling platform owned by Transocean and leased to BP, formally British Petroleum who recently changed their name to Beyond Petroleum. 11 workers are still missing and we all know what the outcome of that will be. Right now, a major oil slick in lapping the coast of Louisiana and is threatening to do severe environmental damage to the Gulf Coast from Louisiana to Florida. Now, people on the side of offshore drilling claim that this is an isolated incident, it isn't.
Earth Day (happy 40th birthday) April
22, 2010 On this Earth Day, I have a message for corporate America. STOP DESTROYING THE EARTH! Now that I have that out of the way, I can move on. Recently, two events have occurred that are stark and unkind reminders of what is good, what is right, what is bad, and what is wrong. I am talking about the explosion at the West Virginia Massey Energy's Upper Big Branch Mine that has claimed 29 lives and the oil drilling platform Deepwater Horizon leaving 11 missing and 17 injured.
NO NUKES! April
19, 2010 President Obama hosted a groundbreaking summit with 47 world leaders for the purpose of securing loose nukes. I don't need to explain why this is a very good thing. At the same time, the President is talking about loan guarantees for new nuclear reactors to help encourage new nuclear power plants. This is very bad.
Say No to New Plastic Say Yes to Comet Water March 03, 2010 A friend of mine contacted me the other day to tell me about a new product he is making available in Southern California. Before I tell you what it is, I want to share with you some disturbing facts.
Fricken Fracking March 01, 2010I am sure many of you have seen the advertisement touting oil and natural gas by the oil companies propaganda machine "Tomorrows Energy."
Today we Celebrate the Death of the ~HUMMER~ March 01, 2010Ding dong, the wicked Hummer is dead!
Solar Lanterns for Kenyan's We in this country have much to be grateful for, even though we seldom think about it. We take so much for granted. We don't think much about the fact that we have plenty of electricity to power an increasingly electronic gadget lifestyle. We have lights, air conditioning, heating, computers, PDA's, smart phones, the list goes on and on. All this is at our fingertips.
Freedom and Democracy are at DEFCON ONE February 06, 2010In one stroke of the pen, the US Supreme Court has handed our democracy over to the corporate machine. The very same corporate machine that is responsible for running this country straight into the ground with war profiteering, an economic collapse, a housing crisis, a bogus "war on drugs" for profit, and massive environmental devastation just to name a few.
Exxon Mobil Ah Exxon Mobil, probably best known for the Exxon Valdese oil spill in the Prince William Sound of Alaska in 1989.
This Just In February 01, 2010 Here is a perfect example of the underhanded cheating and immoral and unethical strategies currently being used to short circuit alternative energy and environmental responsibility. |
