Hugo Chavez Cancer - Global cancer rates could increase by 50%


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUQHdnzboww


It is better not to promote the "wireless technology" because of the Microwave radiation of Mobile Phones, Wifi, Wimax, cell antennas...Their number increases exponentially in towns so the Microwave radiation can also help to increase the number of cancers in the world. Global cancer rates could increase by 50% to 15 million by 2020.


Cell Phone Towers a Possible Cause for Cancer? YES

 How to green the world's deserts and reverse climate change


"Desertification is a fancy word for land that is turning to desert," begins Allan Savory in this quietly powerful talk. And terrifyingly, it's happening to about two-thirds of the world's grasslands, accelerating climate change and causing traditional grazing societies to descend into social chaos. Savory has devoted his life to stopping it. He now believes -- and his work so far shows -- that a surprising factor can protect grasslands and even reclaim degraded land that was once desert.

Clips on farming in Australia. 'Rural' in wiki. An Australian farm (<500 Acres???)
File:Barossa Valley South Australia.jpg


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rural


Australia exports 80% of its food...


Australia is a continent where desertification only began somewhat over a century ago, with overgrazing practices; however, the
percentage of land damaged is small relative to other world regions... http://www.eoearth.org/article/Desertification?topic=49461


The Great Artesian Basin provides the only reliable source of freshwater through much of inland Australia.[1] The basin is the largest and deepest artesian basin in the world... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Artesian_Basin


Australia is the oldest continent. There has been efforts to make dams, divert rivers, drill water wells...


Movies and farming.


14,000 ACRES in Australia http://www.realestate.com.au/property-mixed+farming-sa-lameroo-7448291 See this link and look on the right side of the page and you can see where it is at in Australia. It isn't in a dry part of Australia. $328 an acre. It should make over $200,000 a year raising cattle. You don't have to go to the store often. Grow firewood and acres of organic apples, peaches, citrus...


Farms in California are $10,000 an acre if there for sale. You might be able to get a farm in California for $5,000 an acre if you bought 14,000 Arces. Again 14,000 acres is an extremely large farm. An investment, a true heirloom. A productive estate/farm. There are no inheritance taxes in Australia. 640 acres is a square mile.

 Fukushima has a considerable impact on our environment. 


A nation which suffers from several atomic bombs during WWII still doesn't understand that nuclear power plants will destroy it totally.

California wildfire grows 28,000 acres (VIDEO)


California wildfire grows 28,000 acres (VIDEO)




The wildfire burning through Ventura County has scorched 28,000 acres, and firefighters have only 20% of the blaze surrounded, officials said. 






 A fierce, wind-driven wildfire spread on Friday along the California coast northwest of Los Angeles, threatening 4,000 homes and a military base as residents were evacuated ahead of the flames and a university campus was closed.


By nightfall more than 950 firefighters had built containment around about 20 percent of the inferno, which has blackened more than 43 square miles (111 square kilometers) of dry brush and chaparral since erupting on Thursday morning.


More firefighters were said to be on the way and fire officials said they hoped that diminishing winds and higher humidity would help them make headway overnight and on Saturday.


Fire managers said they expected it would take until next Monday to fully contain the blaze, which sent a pall of thick smoke drifting over the beach community of Malibu and farther inland across Los Angeles County.


Several farm buildings and recreational vehicles were engulfed and fire officials said 15 homes were damaged, along with five commercial properties. While 25 outbuildings were destroyed, no residential structures were lost and no injuries had been reported.


 Some 4,000 homes were considered threatened, with evacuations ordered for about a quarter of those residences, the Ventura County fire and sheriff's departments said.


The so-called Springs Fire and a flurry of smaller blazes around the state this week marked a sudden start to a California fire season that some weather forecasters predict will be worsened by a summer of high temperatures and drought throughout much of the US West.

California: Limo fire kills 5, closes San Mateo bridge


пожар огонь пожар пламя




Five women died Saturday night when they were trapped inside a limo that had caught fire as they were traveling on the westbound San Mateo-Hayward bridge in Foster City. The westbound lanes of the San Mateo-Hayward bridge were closed for several hours.






The California Highway Patrol said the fire was first reported around 10 p.m. in the third lane of westbound state Highway 92 at the bridge's decline. As many as ten people were inside the limo and as many as five of them died, according to multiple reports


Witnesses at the scene reported people were trapped inside the burning limo.


CHP officer Art Montiel said officials did not know where the women were going at the time of the fire. He said the San Mateo County coroner will release the names of the women who died after their families have been notified.


Ten people were inside the vehicle at the time, including nine women and the driver, Montiel said.


 Four women and the driver, whose gender was not known, escaped. Five of the women, however, were unable to escape from the vehicle and were confirmed dead when officers arrived on-scene.


Two of the four women who escaped were taken to Stanford Hospital and two others were taken to Valley Medical Center in San Jose. All four are being treated for smoke inhalation and burns. The driver was not injured.


It appears the fire started in the back of the limosine, but specifically where or how is still under investigation.

Dartagnan: People still don't understand that without trees on Earth; life would have been impossible for us. Trees are the only source of oxygen for us. Trees also help to reduce the temperature of the air. They help to fight the global warming. BUT Governments in many countries still continue to give autorisation to cut trees so it is impossible to fight the global warming. Few countries replant their trees. In our society, Money is still more important than people's health and environmental issues.   Without trees on earth, plenty of money won't save you because you won't survive.


Remember: The Devil likes money more than people's health.
