ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP

Postby DCAdmin » Wed Apr 15, 2009 3:34 am

The United States must preserve clean air and water standards for the health and safety of its citizens. We must leave our environment to future generations better than previous generations left it to us. We must promote uses of our environment that can be sustained without diminishing the quality of our environment, without diminishing biodiversity, and without diminishing the capacity of our resources to steadily yield human benefits.

The Reform Party supports measures that would:

* Promote knowledge of and respect for our natural environment;

* Preserve an integrated network of natural areas to preserve our natural heritage and to accommodate compatible human use;

* Encourage practices and promote the development and use of technologies most beneficial and least harmful to our environment;

* Steadily improve the quality of our air, water and earth.

American companies or their subsidiaries that operate internationally should comply with United States Standards for Safety, Environmental, and child labor laws at all their facilities.

Foreign entities operating within the United States must comply with all national, state, and local laws as they apply.

Stiff penalties should be levied against corporations convicted of routinely violating clean air or water standards.

All present and future trade agreements should be tied to preserving favorable environmental standards.

I bellieve in things like pollution, endangered species and wasted energy. But this issue is kookburger deluxe in the hands of a hysterical public. Here are some examples that I find amusing just when I hear a person go on a rant in everyday life.

-Nano reflecting particles in the upper atmosphere.
This will cool the planet by reflecting sunlight. But if plants need sunlight for photosynthesis, then how is it "green" to deprive plants of the sunlight they need to live?

-Wind filtration using giant acetone vents.
This will purify air by removing CO2. But nobody knows how to get the CO2 out of the acetone. And nobody knows how big the carbon footprint of building these abominations and how many years they have to run to reverse the carbon footprint of construction.
If plants need CO2 for for photosynthesis, then how is it "green" to suffocate plants of the CO2 they need to live?

-Reflectively colored algae to change the color of natural bodies of water
This is so stupid that when you hear it, you will know the person speaking does not think before he speaks. Such stupid people just like to hear the sounds of their own voices. Algae cannot live if it is reflecting sunlight, therefore the plan cannot possibly work. Take a high school biology class, morons!

-Stop using TP for the bunghole
IDIOTS!

This is all dangerous. We affect the climate therefore we must affect the climate even more? All this money and all this research is a big waste in pursuit of a fictional goal. The cures create a disease that never existed before. Man made climate change does not exist and will never exist if these beligerent kooks are stopped. THESE CURES WILL BE THE CAUSE OF CLIMATE CHANGE!

Will somebody please calculate the carbon footprint of the interest payments on the national debt? The national debt is the biggest threat to life on the planet, not my Charmin. But the ultimate irony is that CARBON DIOXIDE IS THE SMALLEST FRACTION OF GREENHOUSE GASSES IN OUR ATMOSPHERE! That's right! Water vapor is the grenhouse gas that affects global temperatures. The CO2 stuff is all pure lies wthat has no scientific proof.

This website has all you need to know to argue against the natural climate change deniers. For example, take the 5% CO2 we may have put in the atmosphere. Add the other 95% that would be there anyway. Multiply the result by 20.

DID YOU KNOW the planet was in an ice age the last time CO2 levels in the atmosphere were that high?

How they are turning off the lights in America

by Edwin X Berry, PhD

On October 31,2009, the once largest aluminum plant in the world will shut down. With it goes another American industry and more American jobs. The Columbia Falls Aluminum Company in Montana will shut down its aluminum production because it cannot purchase the necessary electrical power to continue its operations.

How did this happen in America? America was once the envy of the world in its industrial capability. America’s industrial capacity built America into the most productive nation the world had ever known. Its standard of living rose to levels never before accomplished. Its currency became valuable and powerful, allowing Americans to purchase imported goods at relatively cheap prices.

America grew because of innovation and hard work by the pioneers of the industrial revolution, and because America has vast natural resources. A great economy, as America once was, is founded on the ability to produce electrical energy at low cost. This ability has been extinguished. Why?

Columbia Falls Aluminum negotiated a contract with Bonneville Power Administration in 2006 for Bonneville to supply electrical power until September 30, 2011. But, responding to lawsuits, the 9th US Circuit Court ruled the contract was invalid because it was incompatible with the Northwest Power Act. Therefore, the combination of the Northwest Power Act and a US Circuit Court were the final villains that caused the shutdown of Columbia Falls Aluminum.

But the real reasons are much more complicated. Why was it not possible for Columbia Falls Aluminum to find sources of electricity other than Bonneville?

We need to look no further than the many environmental groups like the Sierra Club and to America’s elected officials who turned their backs on American citizens and in essence themselves, for they too are citizens of this country. These officials bought into the green agenda promoted by the heavily funded environmental groups. Caving to pressure, they passed laws and the environmental groups filed lawsuits that began turning off the lights in America. The dominos started to fall.

They began stopping nuclear power plants in the 1970’s. They locked up much of our coal and oil resources with land laws. They passed tax credits, which forces taxpayers to foot the bill for billionaire investors to save taxes by investing in less productive wind and solar energy projects.

In 1988, the Environmental Protection Agency called a meeting of atmospheric scientists and others with environmental interests. I remember well the meeting I attended in the San Francisco Bay Area. The meeting was in a theater-like lecture room with the seating curved to face the center stage and rising rapidly toward the back of the room. Attending were many atmospheric scientists whom I knew from Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, Stanford Research Institute and some local colleges.

The room became silent when a man walked up to the lectern. He told us that the next big national problem was global warming. He explained how human carbon dioxide emissions were trapping the earth’s radiation like a greenhouse and causing the atmosphere to heat beyond its normal temperature. He said this will lead to environmental disasters. He finished by saying the EPA will now concentrate its research funding toward quantifying the disasters that would be caused by our carbon dioxide.

The room was silent. I was the first to raise my hand to ask a question, “How can you defend your global warming hypothesis when you have omitted the effects of clouds which affect heat balance far more than carbon dioxide, and when your hypothesis contradicts the paper by Lee * in the Journal of Applied Meteorology in 1973 that shows the atmosphere does not behave like a greenhouse?”

He answered me by saying, “You do not know what you are talking about. I know more about how the atmosphere works than you do.”

Not being one to drop out of a fight, I responded, “I know many of the atmospheric scientists in this room, and many others who are not present but I do not know you. What is your background and what makes you know so much more than me?”

He answered, “I know more than you because I am a lawyer and I work for the EPA.”

After the meeting, many of my atmospheric science friends who worked for public agencies thanked me for what I said, saying they would have liked to say the same thing but they feared for their jobs.

And that, my dear readers, is my recollection of that great day when a lawyer, acting as a scientist, working for the federal government, announced global warming.

Fast forward to today. The federal government is spending 1000 times more money to promote the global warming charade than is available to those scientists who are arguing against it. Never before in history has it taken a massive publicity campaign to convince the public of a scientific truth. The only reason half the public thinks global warming may be true is the massive amount of money put into global warming propaganda.

The green eco-groups have their umbilical cords in the government’s tax funds. Aside from a few honest but duped scientists living on government money, the majority of the alarms about global warming – now called “climate change” because it’s no longer warming – come from those who have no professional training in atmospheric science. They are the environmentalists, the ecologists, the lawyers and the politicians. They are not the reliable atmospheric scientists whom I know.

Nevertheless, our politicians have passed laws stating that carbon dioxide is bad. See California’s AB32 which is based upon science fiction. (For readers who take issue with me, I will be happy to destroy your arguments in another place. In this paper, we focus on the damage to America that is being caused by those promoting the global warming fraud.)

In the year 2000, America planned 150 new coal-electric power plants. These power plants would have been “clean” by real standards but the Greens managed to have carbon dioxide defined legally as “dirty” and this new definition makes all emitters of carbon dioxide, including you, a threat to the planet. Therefore, using legal illogic, the Sierra Club stopped 82 of these planned power plants under Bush II and they expect it will be a slam dunk to stop the rest under Obama.

And now you know the real reason the Columbia Falls Aluminum Company had to shut down. America stopped building new power plants a long time ago. There is now no other source where the company can buy energy. Our energy-producing capability is in a decline and it is taking America with it.

I used to belong to the Sierra Club in the 1960’s. It used to be a nice hiking club. In the late 1960’s the Sierra Club began turning its attention toward stopping nuclear power. Then I quit the Sierra Club. It continues to prosper from the many subscribers who think they are supporting a good cause. What they are really supporting is the destruction of America brick by brick. The Sierra Club and similar organizations are like watermelons – green on the outside, red on the inside. They are telling us we have no right to our own natural resources, and in doing so they are sinking America.

Inherent in ecology are three assumptions: “natural” conditions are optimal, climate is fragile, and human influences are bad. Physics makes no such assumptions. By assuming climate is fragile, the global warming supporters have assumed their conclusion. In fact, the climate is not fragile. It is stable. The non-adherence to physical logic in the global warming camp is what makes many physical scientists say that global warming is a religion.

So we have a new age religion promoted by environmentalists, incorporated into our laws and brainwashed into our people that is now destroying America from the inside.

Like a vast ship, America is taking a long time to sink but each day it sinks a little further. The fearsome day awaits, when America, if not quickly recovered by its real citizens, will tilt its nose into the water to begin a rapid and final descent into oblivion … her many resources saved for whom?

To suggest the RPUSA needs to "jump ship" from being environmental stewards is somewhat irresponsible. The RPUSA is saying that we need to counter-act global warming, it is saying we need to protect the environment.

Is this what you meant to say? If so, I would argue it is irresponsible to pretend we can cause or counter-act global warming. But we can use the lie for our own purposes... why is there no carbon footprint for the percentage of GDP that represents the work required to service and pay back the national debt? Pay off the national debt to save the planet, and I'll be telling the same lies with all of you duped man-made climate change believers. If people are stupid enough to believe it, then lets use their stupidity for our purposes and keep the lies going in our corner, right?

The establishment of socialism in capitalist nations requires only targeting their supply of energy. If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it
