Our Oceans are Under Attack

Global warming is stopped or slowed down, that's like saying the earths flat.

John Cook has co-authored the college textbook Climate Change Science: A Modern Synthesis, the book Climate Change Denial:

Doing the right thing, Brandon contacted John Cook and UQ to give them a chance to tell him any good reason why he should not draw people’s attention to this unhidden, non-secret data (which may possibly save the world by convincing everyone that 97% of honest scientists are believers in a climate catastrophe). Unfortunately the lawyer writing the letter to Brandon was obviously a skeptic plant, cleverly seeded with big-oil funds. It’s the only way anyone can explain why a letter so abjectly clumsy, improbable and ridiculous could come from a university which prides itself on its reputation. Not only could Brandon not reveal the details of how the abstracts were reviewed because they would sue him, but he could not even reveal the letter threatening to sue him, or they would sue him for that too — he would be double-sued.

Apparently the threatening letter was copyright. On that point, Steve McIntyre, May 15, 2014 at 5:12 pm wonders about a strange contradiction: “the premise of copyright is the protection of commercial interests. Obviously, the letter from the University of Queensland has no commercial value. ”

Do you know, this thread's title has time and again reminded me of when Xerxes is said to have had the Hellespont whipped for destroying his fancy bridge....

 

The USA isn't overpopulated and birthrate in USA isn't even at maintenance levels. Not since 1972. Only immigration increases USA population. I'm helping with reaching maintenance population birth rate, and produced smart, well educated kids possessing common sense and patriotism.

As to caring for poor and hungry people, that's the business of churches. The proper business of the US government is to protect American citizens from the rest of the world. Not save the world, or police it, or be a sugar daddy for the envious and dysfunctional.

 

Diabetes is a deficiency in the minerals chromium and vanadium.
Ask a veterinarian.
Add chromium and vanadium to your diet, your diabetes will go away.
Minerals are depleted from farms. They don't exist in the soil anymore, so of course aren't in your veggies.
You can get your minerals from salt water fish, wild game, or buy liquid colloidal minerals in the health food store.
Pills won't work. Your body won't digest rocks.
Minerals need to be in juice form like used to be found in plants, to be assimilated in the body.
You require 60 ESSENTIAL minerals everyday to be healthy.

Hunger?
With all the foodstamps the US government doles out, no American should go hungry.
It's only the misuse of the food stamps, cheating, trading, selling food stamps, that results in hungry children in the USA.
Blame the unloving, conniving, addict parents.
And for some adults, refusal to learn about health and diet, or willfully ignoring proper diet.
Explain THAT away, if you can!
You can't help the stubborn.
Some individuals and some cultures are hopeless.
Let them go.
In the final analysis, they are responsible for themselves. Nobody else is at fault.

 

The Ultimate Anti-Diabetes Diet
This cutting-edge eating plan reverses diabetes, wards off heart disease and cancer, and helps you lose weight (without counting calories or cutting portions.

One of America’s most common killer diseases, type 2 diabetes jeopardizes the health, quality of life, and longevity of nearly 24 million Americans, according to the American Diabetes Association, and that number continues to rise. New cases have doubled over the past 30 years, and because the disease occurs gradually and often with no obvious symptoms, many people don’t even know they have it. People who are overweight are at higher risk because fat interferes with the body’s ability to use insulin, the crux of the disease. But a solution to the problem is within reach: a groundbreaking eating plan not only helps prevent this chronic disease, but actually reverses it while also promoting weight loss.

Focusing on plant-based meals,the revolutionary plan was developed by Vegetarian Times’ own Ask the Doc columnist, Neal Barnard, MD, and is backed by the results of his long-term study. Your doctor may not tell you about this diet: dietitians generally counsel overweight diabetics to cut calories, reduce serving sizes, and avoid starchy carbohydrates that raise blood sugar levels. But Barnard’s team at the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and scientists at George Washington University and the University of Toronto thought this might be the wrong approach, considering that carbohydrate-rich rice, legumes, and root vegetables are staples throughout Asia and Africa, where most people are thin and diabetes rates are low.

Barnard and his team studied a group of diabetics, comparing the effects of a diet based on standard recommendations versus a vegan-style diet with no limits on calories, carbs, or portions, and just three rules: eliminate meat, dairy, and eggs; minimize fat and oil; and favor low-glycemic foods (such as beans, vegetables, brown rice, and oatmeal), which have little effect on blood sugar. After 22 weeks, participants on the vegan plan experienced average blood sugar drops three times that of subjects on the standard diet. Researchers found that the vegan plan led to better blood sugar control, and reductions in cholesterol and body weight too.

Better still, study results show that Barnard’s plan also helps reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. So, even if diabetes and weight loss are not your primary concerns, there are plenty of other health reasons to give this eating strategy a try.

Here, we’ve created a week’s worth of menus and recipes that follow Barnard’s plan, making it deliciously doable for anyone.

Percent of homeless women who claim domestic abuse as the reason for their homelessness 22 %
Percent of homeless population that are Veterans / Vets 40 %

Number of Americans who now live in hunger or on the edge of hunger 31,000,000
Percent of people in a soup kitchen line who are children 20 %
Number of families who are lodging nightly in city shelters in New York City 6,252
Number of children in the U.S. who live below poverty level. 12,000,000
Annual number of food stamp recipients who are children 9,300,000
Percent of cities surveyed that identified domestic violence as a primary cause of homelessness 46 %

It is true that the US is not as densely populated as many other countries, but we use way more than our fair share of the earth's unsustainable resources. So that 'extra' American child you produced has a much more negative impact on the earth's resources than, say, an extra 2 or 3 children produced in Bangladesh.


Current Population is Three Times the Sustainable Level

 

There’s growing evidence that global warming is driving crazy winters | Washington Post

 

America would be home to more than one billion people by 2100, though we should note that the rate of growth has declined to its lowest in a century.

Even so, the U.S. has one of the highest growth rates in the developed world.

The results of this demographic explosion are readily apparent: low wages and high unemployment rates, public school systems with very high student-to-teacher ratios, and government assistance programs so heavily utilized that severe cuts will be needed to sustain them.

The damage caused by overpopulation is severe. First, high population tallies and subpar salaries are intrinsically linked. When the rate of population growth exceeds the rate of economic growth, standards of living fall. Low income countries are home to the highest birthrates, despite economic prospects in those countries being poor. That means soaring unemployment statistics.

In America’s poorer regions, conditions that might be described as “third world” can be found all too easily. Overpopulation has resulted in a crucial job deficit and applicant surplus. In the past, this has mainly affected blue collar workers, though the ongoing recession has brought traditionally secure white collar jobs under the gun.

In public education, 8 percent of schools exceed their capacities by more than 25 percent because of population increases. One-third conduct classes in portable classrooms, and one-fifth are actually forced to turn congregation halls such as gymnasiums into makeshift learning environments. Even worse, various school districts are now considering building structures on ecologically hazardous grounds.

How the sun controls the climate, not burning fuels.
Forcing agenda 21 socialist conspiracy is a major global effort, a power grab to one world government, and all at your expense.

The next climate change is global cooling, not warming. A Cold Sun is the cause, it is going into hibernation. Remember the sunspots decline!.

You can see the punch line coming, can't you? Yup, turns out that even people who claim that global warming isn't happening think that John L. Casey, the director and sole named employee of the SSRC, is a "scam artist trying to get his hands in your pocket" who lacks "any credibility in climate research." Indeed, the SSRC's website acknowledges that Casey lacks both education and experience with climate science.

At least one climate skeptic does take Casey seriously: Casey is listed in Sen. Jim Inhofe's (R-OK) report on "700 International Scientists [Who] Dissent Over Man-Made Global Warming Claims." Inhofe has called global warming the "greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people," and compared Al Gore's documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" to Hitler's Mein Kampf. Inhofe's lists of scientists are famous for being light on the climate scientists, and heavy on "economists and other social scientists, mathematicians, TV weathermen, retired scientists and amateurs, as well as scientists who have received support for their work from fossil fuel industries."

The sad part is, channeling "research" from someone like Casey is a step up for Hoft. Usually, he's parroting the arguments of a "hate group."
