Hurricane Central has reported that “The 2014 hurricane
season has fallen into a slumber heading into the final days of the season’s
peak month.” http://www.weather.com/news/weather-hurricanes/atlantic-hurricane-season-2014-update-quite-20140922
However, we don’t want to mix catastrophic weather events
with climate as the global warming alarmists do. We could have a late arrival
hurricane like Sandy.
The planet’s climate has been changing for millions of years
yet, if you ask a climate change alarmist, they are unable to tell you what the
appropriate temperature of the planet should be or what it was 200 years ago.
As it stands, the earth has been in a cooling period for the last 18 years. It
explains why the enviro-globalists have changed the name of their taxation and
control agenda from global warming to climate change.
Scientists are constantly revealing the negative and dirty
cost of clean energy promoted by enviro-bureaucrats; renewables like wind,
solar, and biofuels have negative effects on humans and animals who happen to
exist in the vicinity of such sources or depend on food produced from corn.
The Smart Meters controversy is finally reaching a fever
pitch with the battle moving into the mainstream. Consumer advocate Ralph Nader
called smart meters a “step toward technological despotism. http://www.takebackyourpower.net/news/2014/10/02/ralph-nader-smart-meters-a-step-toward-technological-despotism/
The Wall Street Journal stated that “one in 10 cell/grid
towers violate FCC’s safety guidelines.” According to the FCC, radio frequency radiation is a serious problem
since at very high levels, “RF can cook human tissue, causing cataracts and
temporary sterility and other health issues.” http://online.wsj.com/articles/cellphone-boom-spurs-antenna-safety-worries-1412293055
The FCC
set two limits “to buffer people from these ’thermal’ effects, limits on how
much radiation frequency people can absorb—one for the public, and one
“occupational” limit five times higher for people who are trained to work near
antennas. “ Perhaps their skin cooks five times slower? “A German study in 2013
found higher emissions from 4G antennas.” http://www.mcf.amta.org.au/newsletters/Mobile.InSite.May.2013?Article=39384
Cash-strapped
families in Ireland had to pay water bills in excess of 240 euros a month
thanks to smart water meters. http://www.irishmirror.ie/news/politics/outrage-revealed-politicians-wont-pay-4354752
Citizens
who refuse smart meters for health reasons and privacy issues have to pay
higher upfront fees and monthly reading fees that vary from state to state,
anywhere from $35-$95 per month. Other customers are abused by a system that
uses the police state to force citizens into compliance.
Customers
who had their traditional meters replaced by smart meters are now paying much
higher electric bills although their consumption has not changed. Some customers lost their homes to smart meters that caught fire or exploded.
According
to the Chicago Tribune, Malia “Kim” Bendis of Naperville, Illinois, after being
arrested on January 13, 2013 for filming the installation of a smart meter at
Jennifer Stahl’s home, was recently acquitted of the charge of “misdemeanor of
resisting or obstructing a peace officer.” http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-lisle/chi-jury-gets-naperville-smart-meter-case-20141001-story.html
While
we are trying to be conscientious protectors of the environment and want clean
air and water, we are not interested in destroying our economies and our way of
life for the unfounded fears and exaggerations of those who stand to gain from
their draconian environmental agenda.
The
World Council for Nature’s mission statement explains, “But our interest in the
conservation of nature does not mean that we forget about people: we shall also
defend human populations against aggressions that have the same origin.”

Mark
Duchamp, President of WCN, fights in particular against the health damage that
wind turbines and solar plants cause animals and humans. In his October 6, 2014
press release, Duchamp stated that “health authorities refuse to measure
accurately infrasound and low-frequency noise emitted by wind turbines; they
are obviously protecting the wind industry.”
Wind
turbines blast nearby residents non-stop with low frequency sound (LFS). Lack
of restful sleep causes exhaustion coupled by, according to testimony, a “deep,
drumming, rumbling sensation in the skull behind my ears which is like pressure
and often a pulsating, squeezing sensation at the base of my skull. I also
experience irregular heartbeat while I am trying to sleep and while I am
relaxing (sitting or reclining) in our house. I did not have any trouble
sleeping before the turbines started operating.” http://waubrafoundation.org.au/resources/david-mortimers-statement-cherry-tree-hearing-at-vcat-jan-2013/
Mark Duchamp cites Dr. Marcus Drexel of
the University of Munich whose study found that “low frequency sound can affect
the active micromechanics in the human inner ear.” http://en.friends-against-wind.org/doc/140166.full.pdf
As much as 30 percent of the population is sensitive to
LFS. Some individuals have persistent headaches, insomnia, and depression. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2775222/Could-living-near-wind-farm-make-DEAF-Low-frequency-hum-damage-inner-ear-experts-warn.html#ixzz3FQeQO7B3
Mark Duchamp said that we live in “a world where the
wind/climate coalition has successfully blocked official research on LFS
emitted by wind turbines since the Kelley Studies in 1985-1987.”
It is hard to understand why governments subsidize and
investors throw money into bigger and bigger wind farms and solar plants when
the energy is unreliable, expensive, insufficient to satisfy our large economy,
a health hazard to humans and to wildlife, and it requires the use of such vast
swaths of land.
The thermal flux from the solar panels fries millions of
birds in mid-air and even evaporates them completely. Birds mistaken the huge
mirrors for water and dive to their deaths. The huge wind turbine blades chop
up millions of birds and bats.
Dr. Klaus Kaiser described how Germany’s Bard 1 wind farm became finally operational in
March 2014 following years of delay. After connecting to the grid and beginning
to deliver energy, the AC-to-DC converter station experienced a “meltdown.” The
replacement converter was shut down a few days later. http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/print-friendly/66002
The EPA is closing our coal power plants with their
outrageous regulatory demands while China, India, France, and Hungary are
building new power plants and nuclear ones. We are destroying our economy in
order to satisfy the environmental lobby’s ever more onerous regulations to
protect Mother Earth which is already pretty clean in the U.S., while other
countries like China and India are polluting away.
