Only 5% of Philippine coral reefs remain

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Mon, 06/06/2011 - 7:40pm

Read this and weep: A marine scientist from the University of the Philippines has revealed that only 5 percent —equivalent to just around 1,000 square kilometers—of the country’s total reef area remain in good condition in the face of the wanton destruction of our coral reefs by poachers.

The estimated reef area of the Philippines ranges from 19,000 to 27,000 square kilometers, depending on the territorial boundaries and depth ranges. This makes the Philippines’s reef areas one of the biggest in Southeast Asia, more so if those in the disputed Kalayaan Islands were included.

Private Military Intelligence controlling schools

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Fri, 03/06/2011 - 8:27pm

Private Intelligence Networks controlling our schools (in the UK) and you can be sure Gillard is implementing the same in Australia. Aecom (private military and subcontracts to the pentagon)is active in Australia, involved in programming children via the Froebel system. Gillard herself was programmed via the Froebel system at Mitcham Demonstration School, and likely prior to that as well. This is, of course, the John Adam St Gang at work.

America’s unnerving celebrations post Bin Laden's death

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Thu, 02/06/2011 - 12:47am

"Rot in hell" screams the front page of the New York Post. “The Butcher of 9/11 is dead”, “We got him”, “US nails the bastard” as the United States of America basks in bloodthirsty revelry, tabloid antics went into over-drive. Spontaneous celebration filled Times Square, crowds gathered in front of the White House euphorically cheering “USA, USA, USA”. Mass hysteria broke out on the social networking scene with Twitter reporting 4000 tweets per second as news of Osama Bin Laden’s murder broke out.

Price on Carbon: Frequently Asked Questions

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Tue, 31/05/2011 - 6:23pm

Q: I can’t afford an increased price of living so I’m scared of a big new tax on everything.

A: The carbon price will affect 1000 of Australia’s biggest polluters - individuals will not be taxed. Some of the costs will be passed on to consumers so there will be an increase in some of our lifestyle choices. However millions of households will in fact be better off financially through compensation.

Q: Compensation removes the incentive to reduce consumption of electricity.
