Research from Sweden through the Affiliated Press shows that one grown moose belches enough methane gas that equals twice the amount of CO2 let off by a plane flight across the atlantic from Europe to South America!!
Now the "experts" are trying to find valid reasons not to kill off the entire population of moose!! Environmentalism is going too far in the wrong direction-too much energy is focused on dead end issues-as you already know how I feel about fluorescent lighting...(go back a few pages to read).
I wish the focus would change to clean water, the effects of plastics and the damaging effects of nuclear wastes-etc.
Nuclear reactors malfunction all the time and let out radiation into the atmosphere-and they do not alert the public (look at what is happening in Tenessee right now or what happened in Japan).

Although I consider myself "Green" I do not feel that the Green party adequately represents the most important issues-most of it is about starting little fires to cover the bigger ones. This is also my issue with the NVIC-which I believe has sold out in many ways....
Last year I became alarmed at listening to a liberal and conservative debate on NPR and the liberal representative said the Democratic agenda is to take all the war money and place it towards vaccines and vaccine research and to go after the "non-vaccinaters" which the Republican's have let go for "too long"...YIKES!!
