Its ironic. Corporations have destroyed our Ancient Growth Forest.

Its not only still occurring here from coast to coast, but also in Canada and South America. The most precious of resources, resources that serve us an protect us, even give life, have been treated to be no more valuable than having picnic tables, an toothpicks if money can be made in harvesting them, making millionaires, and billionaires for the few.

Corporations, companies, both public an private have Polluted the land, polluted our streams, lakes, and rivers from mining, Polluted our Ocean with everything known to man, Polluted our harbors with every chemical known to man, and our atmosphere.

Just imagine the pollutants from commercial an private planes contribute everyday...........its going on around the world. The devastating impact thats been occurring for centuries in America, in particular over the last 150 years without reservation will have negative implications on our ecosystem may forever have consequences we don't even yet understand?. It happened in Europe, Canada and here, past and present, and its truly sad what has happened in South America, and within the Amazon Basin. The destruction of Primeval Rain Forest like no other on earth is disappearing, along with its plants whose properties are not even known?, and may be the cure for diseases we've yet to face or have.

In time there may nothing left other than mans footprint, and what animals aren't extinct, the ones left may be in zoo's. Its hard to imagine that any man would have the arrogance to cut down a redwood, or harpoon a whale, or cut the fins off a shark for a delicacy, or harvest whales thru trickery, or make a career catching one of the most beautiful fish in the sea in large numbers on an ongoing bases, the exchange for the Marlin's life for money. In fact everything I've noted is all for money, or mans comfortable lifestyle, or for leisure. It may come at the cost of all life on this planet. This in additon to everything else going on within world governments.

We can only imagine what this continent alone looked like 500 years ago, or Africa?.......but we can see whats developed since, and we again can only imagine 200 years in the future?

Scientist can look for a new planet all they want, but they will never find another earth, or anything close to a facsimile, and by some remote possibility they find a means to live on another planet, then what?.........where's the blue sky, where's the wildlife, where's the truly natural beauty?.........who would want to go?, Space adventurers I guess?.......its all science fiction.

Our Government has played a major role in bringing about this devastation all for money, all for the help in getting them re-elected. The sludge in Prince William Sound still exist today, maybe will still be there hundreds of years from now, and long before that accident occurred the government was warned by its people how sloppy that operation was getting.

Whats that ringing in our ear now?, daily?, we may be approaching the eleventh hour before destruction, maybe its already to late.

They now want to go down a different path, and with new intents, and desires, and schemes to save the planet. Corporations have a bag of ideas on how they plan to do it, Cap & Trade being one. If you ask me this is nothing more than their divisiveness to capitalize on more of their manipulative moves, for their overall greedy "green scheme", like what got us here in the first place, so they can rake in billions for govt subsidies, and fat paychecks. The next big thing to move the markets, like they did with the dot coms., like they have with the housing market, like so many other things they've managed to pull off. Whatever they do you can bank on one thing, it will cost the working class plenty, as we see oil again reaching $5 a barrel the squeeze will become more an more prevalent.

Its like anything, the more a person hears the same thing the more, and more he,(she) begins believing it. Everyone we talk to today has something to say about planet green. Kinda like the jargon for Iraq having weapons of mass destruction. Everyone was duped. It really underscored why we were there in the first place. Remember, the Bush family, as well as the Cheney's an Haliburton always were about oil.
