NYC Climate Demo: Top 5 Massive Rallies that had no Effect
Leave
it to New York to have the biggest CLIMATE CHANGE march in the world.
When
I was in New York June 12, 1982, I was walking with about 1,000,000
people.
We
were protesting nuclear weapons then, not the climate.
It's the same
deal, though.
It's
either life or death for the planet.
Like
everything else, unless something is on your front porch, you don't
pay too much attention to it .
Well,
the heating of the planet is on all of our front porches.
The
house is burning.

“The
warhead’s new guts, a colorful assortment of electronic and
mechanical parts, lay alongside a shiny nose cone on a metal table
outside an assembly hall.”
This
innocuous and romantic description of a nuclear weapon is a big part of the
problem.
We
glamorize these horrible weapons!
Nuclear
bombs haven't been used since Nagasaki and Hiroshima, so we don't pay
much attention to them.
“While
we still have weapons, the most important thing is to make sure they
are safe, secure and reliable,” said Mr. Poneman, the deputy energy
secretary.
Yes,
make sure that they are safe and secure...
and
reliable!
We
don't want our nuclear bombs to fizzle out if they are used, do we?
“The
administration has told the Pentagon to plan for 12 new missile
submarines, up to 100 new bombers and 400 land-based missiles, either
new or refurbished.”
This
is to “keep up with the Jones” (Russia and China).
Our
deterrent is to deter these other countries from even thinking that
their atomic stuff
is better than ours.
“It
estimated the total cost of the nuclear enterprise over the next
three decades at roughly $900 billion to $1.1 trillion.”
Jobs,
jobs, jobs!

This
is other news that isn't as important as the fate of the planet.
IT'S ABOUT RENEWABLE RESOURCES OIL AND THE FATE OF THE PLANET!
