California is under a DROUGHT. Shut the water off to the 900
Golf Courses statewide
author: Nicholas Pierotti
target: Governor Jerry Brown
signatures: 538
we've got 538 signatures, help us get to 1,000
overview
As the State of California has now been officially declared to
be in a drought emergency, I have to ask: Are all the 900 golf
courses in the State still being watered? I'd say we cut those
off so that people will have water to drink and cook and wash
with.
Golf is NOT a necessary activity.
SHUT 'EM OFF!
HTML http://www.pic4ever.com/images/swear1.gif
Who really NEEDS golf courses. NOBODY. The water should be used
for necessary activities. Let's shut off the water to the golf
courses state-wide.

Is
the Arctic Warming Faster than the Rest of the World?
The Arctic is warming faster than the rest of the world — twice
as fast, on average. From the 1970s through the 2000s. However,
the average temperature of some parts of the Arctic has
increased 10 times more :o than the average worldwide
temperature increase of 0.36 degrees Fahrenheit (0.2 degrees
Celsius) per decade. The Arctic, Earth's ice-covered most
northern region, is thought to be warming more quickly than the
rest of Earth because of the albedo effect, which occurs when
the loss of ice reduces the reflection of the sun’s heat back
into space, and instead uncovers bare water and rock that take
in and store the sun’s heat.
More about the Arctic:
•The amount of ice in the Arctic region decreased 14% from the
1970s to 2012.
•Eight countries have regions that extend into the Arctic:
Canada, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Russia, Sweden and
the US.
•Polar bears are located only in the Arctic, and
environmentalists project that they could be extinct by the year
2100 if the region continues to warm at the projected rate.

Agelbert NOTE: A lot more species than polar bears, including
Homo SAP, may be extinct by the year 2100 if the suicidal
trajectory we or on is not changed within a decade or so. >:(

If we change, if we act to leave dirty and centralized,
political power concentrating energy behind, we will give future
generations a chance to live in a Viable Biosphere AND a
political democracy.

Quakers Divest From Fossil Fuels
Paula Kline, Fossil Free Friends | July 7, 2014 12:09 pm

> “We understand that addressing the climate crisis is a moral
imperative,” said Bruce Harrison of Westtown Monthly Meeting.
“The divestment movement draws attention to the seriousness of
climate disruption and the need to combat the powerful coal, oil
and gas companies, which persist in resisting efforts to curb
polluting carbon and methane emissions.”

For
those who don't know what Fracking has done, thanks to the
environmental cost math challenged MKing's of this world (the
fossil fuel loving crazies), just Google Frackcidents.
Here's my search results for those, unlike MKing, who can add
and subtract.

NOTE: fraccidents is a DIFFERENT search item. Do that one after
the above one for more "externalized costs of fossil fuels" that
WE-THE-PEOPLE get STUCK with.

fossil fuel industry that buys our politicians with the profits
from pollution producing fuels while said politicians keep
fossil fuel and nuclear power plant "subsides" (taxpayer theft!)
to tilt the energy playing field against renewable energy.

America DOES NOT have to play second fiddle to being the first
country to win the Climate Victory because of idiot greedball,
war loving fossil fuelers. As part of being responsible, caring
human beings, we have to pressure our government to take major
action to stop the degradation of the biosphere from climate
change. This is causing death and disease to both domestic
animals and wildlife, all of which have done nothing to deserve
such a horrible fate at our hands. It's time to eliminate the
excuse our fossil fuel loving oligarchy uses for "resources"
wars for oil that bring nothing but misery to us and profits for
them.
I started a petition on Care2: Demand Liberty From Fossil Fuels
Through 100% Renewable Energy WWII Style Effort. I'm hoping that
if enough people sign my petition, we can make a difference.

Has There Been an Increase in Incidence of Natural Disasters in
the Past Several Decades?

There has been an increase in the incidence of natural disasters
in the past several decades. The 2011 United Nations (UN) World
Economic and Social Survey found that the rate of natural
disasters increased by five times since the 1970s. Researchers
believe this is related to climate change brought on by
excessive energy consumption and pollution related to human
behaviors such as an increase in technology and industrial
output. An increase in global temperature may particularly
increase the extreme temperatures that can cause natural
disaster storms by producing more water vapor in the air that
turns into precipitation.
More about the increase in natural disasters:
•The total worldwide death toll of natural disasters decreased
by over 90% from the 1930s to the 2000s.
•Scientists project that there will be an increase of up to 20%
more snow and rain by the year 2100, making natural disasters
more prevalent, as well as more powerful.
•The average annual cost of a natural disaster aftermath was $50
billion US Dollars (USD) to nearly $200 billion USD on average
in 2012.
