Yes, stop air, water, soil, food, etc etc pollution from these pesticides and restore nature to the way it was and should be!
Why do people hate nature and "tree huggers" so much when nature is the only assurance of producing and keeping life on this planet? Without it, there's nothing but mass destruction: "One-third of the U.S. food supply is dependent on the pollination from bees alone, and without bats or birds, the food supply as you know it would be long gone."
For anyone interested in a comprehensive overview of research on how bees are affected by EMR, including a time line and notes on vested-interest efforts to suppress this, see "Disappearing Bees: CCD & EMR" www.indymedia.org.uk/.../392060.html
The connection is really a lot clearer than I thought.
yep, just wait till we run out of gas. see http://dieoff.org
Thanks for the link Pat O. I read one or two and the information makes me want to cry... all the efforts for green awareness, all the recycling efforts, and
our cry's for clean fuel will mean NOTHING if we have no FOOD...
Do you think the time will ever come when we will look at pictures of fruit and veg and sigh to our grandchildren saying..." yes, it had the most wonderful taste, I wish you could have tasted one before they were gone..."
How can we stop this? How do we reverse the mass use of cellphones and other disruptors? I think it would be very hard for people to give up the convenience of their cell phones, blackberries, and blue tooth toys...
But if people knew that these things are literally killing them and destroying their children's future, I wonder if it might work.
Thank you, Samsara! I think what we need to do is start lobbying for places to be set aside free from artificial sources of radiation. As more and more people begin to see how radiation is affecting them, there will be more support for this and a growing economic incentive to promote these zones as a healthy place to vacation or live. Currently, by the time most people realize they've been made ill by radiation, they've been impoverished by their mysterious disease. That is one reason no one has been able to establish such zones yet. Another reason is a very well funded disinformation campaign by vested interests. If it could be shown that people and creatures living in radiation-free zones were indeed healthier, the telcos would be in trouble and the military would face lawsuits. We have to realize what we are up against, but not let it stop us.
Some may call it Karma (and I believe in it). In this case others may call it a CRIME! I didn't ask for pesticides and I have been active most of my adult life working against chemicals in our air, food and bodies. The people that deserve the Karma are those that perpetrate the crimes and those that sit back and do nothing to stop the criminals. These are the same people who, time after time, go to the voting booths, push a couple of buttons for some candidate that was groomed within our evil system, and belive the candidate (corrupt politician) is going to save us. They have to do more. Voting is a notion that is there to fool people into believing they have something to say about the political system.
An 80's song had a line that said, "we won't get fooled again." How I wish that were true. The reality is that we get fooled every day of our lives. If we knew the true history of our country and its phoney corrupt leaders, we may have a shot at correcting things. Unfortunately, we send our children to school believing they are being educated, and why not. If it was good enough for us, it is good enough for them - and I am not dumb. Well, think again!!! The multitudes go on believing what is presented to them is true, while others may see the propaganda as half-truths. It is all an illusion, a perception that has been driven into our heads by a poor education as children, and a constant barrage of lies and propaganda as adults. It is fortified and made credible by all the TV programs we watch, the junk food that we eat, and the lies we cling to about religion and politics because we believe we need something to stabilize our lives in a chaotic world.
Hillary is not the answer, nor is Barack, and neither is praying for God's intervention. WE ARE THE POTENTIAL ANSWER. Collectively, we hold the key. But, we are unable to unite because we believe we are Democrats, Republicans, Catholics, Jews, Muslims, etc. We are none of these illusions. We are all human beings!
Sandy-
I am very much like you in this regard. I am always reading the articles and the comments to learn more information. It can be quite disheartening to realize what is happening to the environment and our food because of the choices we (as a society) continually make. I think you are doing the right thing by taking some time away...it isn't going to help anything if you get depressed because that might leave you feeling helpless. Try to remain optimistic that this is something that we can fix, and do anything you can to help promote the change. That is really the only advice I have to offer.
Again, keep reading and learning, but also start doing!

Thanks for the encouraging words. I took a few weeks and didn't read any articles, then started reading again today. I am ready to start learning and also to start "doing". One thing I've been doing is telling family/friends about Dr. Mercola's site. I'm hoping that some of them will visit here and benefit from all the good information. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it :)

You need to contact your city council about spraying for mosquitoes--not just one person, but a whole bunch of you. Go to the people in your faith group who see the connection between caring for the environment and their love for the Creator, and get them to join you. It takes a lot of voices to move a city council, but it can be done, slowly but surely. I live in a city of about 35,000 with one token "Green" person on the council. Spraying for mosquitoes has been decreasing over the past few years simply because a small, very vocal group of people have asked for it. Good luck.
