ELECTRIC CAR=BAD IDEA

MANY REASONS WHY ELECTRIC CARS ARE A BAD IDEA. . . . .IMAGINE FOR A MOMENT IF 100,000 OR HEAVEN FORBID 1 MILLION ELECTRIC CARS WERE ON THE ROAD ..WHERE WOULD THE ELECTRICITY COME FROM ? EACH ELECTRIC CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE PLUGGED INTO A ELECTRIC OUTLET OVER NIGHT TO BE CHARGED IT WOULD INSTANTLY DRAIN THE SYSTEM OF SCARCE ELECTRICITY ESPECIALLY IN WINTER . . . .THE COLLATERAL DAMAGE DONE BY THE E-CAR TO THE ENVIRONMENT IS ALMOST EQUAL TO THE GASOLINE ENGINES. THEY STLL NEED ROADS MADE OUT OF PAVEMENT OR CONCRETE BOTH OF WHICH EMIT CO2 IN CONSTRUCTION PROCESS..A NEW EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE NUCLEAR REACTOR WOULD HAVE TO BE BUILT JUST TO SUPPLY THE POWER FOR THE CHARGING PROCESS. . . .TOXIC CAR BATTERIES FROM THE CARS WOULD BE DISPOSED OFF IN OVERCROWDED GARBAGE DUMPS . . .DREAMS OF CLEAN AIR AND WATER AND ECONOMIC RECOVERY WOULD SOON VANISH . . . .JUST SAY NO TO ELECTRIC CARS.

NUCLEAR=WATER HOG

The Association is asserting that the nearby Plymouth-based nuclear power plant has created a “killing zone” in Cape Cod Bay that not only affects the future health of the Jones River and its native species but the health of a wide variety of aquatic species, large and small, and the food they depend on to survive. The Watershed Association and Pilgrim Watch have jointly written to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) suggesting that the plant’s owner – Entergy Corporation – should not have its license to operate the Pilgrim nuclear power plant extended unless and until it upgrades the facility’s water cooling system. That license expires later this year, and Entergy has been engaged in a license renewal process for more than six years. The Association and Pilgrim Watch assert that the plant’s cooling system – which uses seawater to maintain safe temperatures at the plant – is discharging harmful pollution and potentially impacting endangered species and their hab

tar sands protest,washington dc

post she wrote about visiting her native Alberta, where she saw the tar sands up close. She explains a bit about why this kind of individual outreach is so important: "A week after I visited the Canadian Tar Sands “to see for myself” what that area is all about, I received emails from several of my friends and colleagues, encouraging me to join them in Washington, DC for a "peaceful protest" against the proposed pipeline that would carry tar sands oil from Alberta, Canada to Texas… I am signed up for a Tar Sands protest at the White House in Washington, DC that has the potential to get the protesters arrested. Do I feel this cause is important enough to take these risks? YES I do. I hope my kids will be proud of me, and that it builds on my legacy and actions to try to raise awareness to the growing reality of climate change that is threatening my children’s future and mine. I want to WAKE UP my neighbors, friends, colleagues and total strangers by showing them that a mo

WALMART UN-PATRIOTIC

The battle between as the world's largest retailer and those who oppose it constructing a new store on the site of one of the Civil War's largest and most important battles continues. DCist music editor Amanda Mattos reports that a letter signed by some 250 scholars, from Ken Burns to David McCullough, puts Wal-Mart on notice: "The Wilderness is an indelible part of our history, its very ground hallowed by the American blood spilled there, and it cannot be moved." In December, the company prepared to submit an application for a special-use permit to construct a store on a portion of the battlefield, which is part of Fredericksburg & Spotsylvania National Military Park. As Mattos notes, the Battle of the Wilderness was the first battle between Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee. It cost 4,000 soldiers their lives and wounded 20,000 others and started the final push towards the end of the war. . . . . .IN SPITE OF THEIR SOMETIMES CHEAP PRICES WALMART DOES A LOT OF
