Take Note Japs

Hello Japanese, follow the example of the great Aussies who tried hard to save a lot of Sperm Whales stranded on their coasts. Stop the wanton destruction of the majestic whales in the name of ‘research.’ And pray what is this so-called research is all about. To study the effects of gastric juices on whale meat in the filthy bellies of those who consume them.

Bring Down Pollution and Live Longer.

AFP reports the results of a recent study made by Brigham Young University and Harvard School of Public Health on the effect of pollution on human health and longevity. It revealed that reduction of pollution results in ‘measurable health gains’. Cleaner air increased life expectancy by five months in 51 American cities. Longevity increased by five years between 1980 and 2000 in the cities. The study found that this was due to cleaner air.
So CEO’s auto companies and the politicians, who are in league with them, take note. You can live longer if the internal combustion engine is given its last rites.

Hurrah to BVD Co., China.

China is notorious for her carbon emissions. But the great country has done something to compensate for this sin. For it has developed an electric car that seemingly holds great promise. The automaker, BYD Co. Ltd has introduced a car named ‘e 6’. It was in show at the North American International Auto Show held in Detroit recently. It isn’t a small car like most electric cars for it can seat five persons comfortably. And its unique BYD Fe battery enables the car to travel 400km on a single charge.
China has no oil reserves to mention. So she can save hefty sums on oil imports if cars like the ‘e 6’ can take off successfully. On a happy note, it will help reduce the carbon emission to a considerable level.
But carbon spewing developed countries will not develop such cars in a hurry. The oil companies are in cahoots with the auto industry. They don’t want motor vehicles other than fossil fuel driven, gliding along the highways. They don’t care a hoot in saving the environment; they are interested only in the fat profits their evil industries bring them. The way they go on, they’d start shitting on their own dining tables and if the situation warrants it, their own dinner plates.
Hurrah to all those companies that develops the kind of autos that don’t vomit carbon gases. Let those who have that vision and the foresight to save our fragile environment.

The Movie On Deadly Ground

On Deadly Ground is an old Hollywood movie, but Environmental Extremist never gets tired of seeing it. The crowning glory of the film is the speech Segal delivers at the end. Gas companies are against the manufacture of vehicles running on alternate fuels. Development of such vehicles are nipped in the bud or carried on with a halfhearted effort. And one mustn’t forget the fact that gas companies are the prime cause although indirectly of carbon emissions. Also oil spills caused by giant tankers spell danger for our fragile environment. One European company even advertises itself as the pioneer of alternate energy. Satan in God’s garb?!
As mentioned before in this blog, the world economic recession is a blessing in disguise. Production of crude oil is at an all time low. One can hear Mother Earth heaving a sigh of relief. And the chances are that the present trend will continue for a long time to come, thanks to the greed and cupidity of the stinking rich. Their greed has brought down the very system that they helped to build. As their unholy profits dwindle, so does atmospheric pollution vomited out by automobiles and the likes. Isn’t this reason enough to celebrate?
