POPSSea Shepherd deserves our support! It is time for the World to standup and be counted on issues affecting us all. Our Governments continue to fail us as they junket from one fest to another expending more "hot air". We have enough Global Warming without daft politicians adding to it!

POPSBravo Sea Shepherd for a gutsy effort All this at a time when Governments (and Greenpeace!) are sitting on their asses enjoying Christmas festivities, no doubt! It is time for more to support Sea Shepherd in their valiant efforts.

POPSTimid Governments allow vandals to wreck forests! Governments around the World consistently "shy away" from taking powerful vested interests to court. It makes a complete mockery of our system and it threatens our future. The last thing the World needs now is more Global Warming in this case brought about by politicians producing "hot air" rather than action!

POPSRussian liberals being stifled Pretty sobering news as Putin seizes more power - with us being on the lip of another Cold War and a major long-term financial recession this is the time that wars can be started as a "cure all". The public must be very concerned.

POPSIs mankind generally moronic? I'd have to agree with Al Gore - too many watch soap opera and reality shows or get consumed in trivia to worry about what is going on "out there". Here we have a World falling "part at the seams" as the majority doesn't give a damn. It speaks volumes!

POPSAustralian Government beats the retreat! So much for the grand opening salvo from the Rudd Government - they have now beaten the retreat! The "Ozzies" were never people to runup a white flag after a couple of shots - why start now?

POPSWhalers decimate even pregnant females! These callous whalers are not only taking the present generation of whales, they are also taking future generations! I believe the time has come for decisive action - not the limp-wristed efforts of so many Governments. Australia through the new Rudd administration made a great start - but they have now joined ranks with those capitulating to the Japanese. Some leadership!

POPSOur way of life is changing for all time The demise of the great U.S. automobile industry highlights a society on the lip of major change. The highly paid executives and their lavish lifestyles may quickly follow. The public are reacting to the thought of obscene waste and extravagance of a select and comparative few. This had to happen and I invite people to scan through numerous photo libraries and see the demise of Detroit itself - it is as if a war zone. A blight upon the landscape in fact. It is time indeed for inspired leadership before all this spreads far and wide like a cancer.

POPSAfrica is a "basket case" - exploited by China and others! The lingering, callous attitude to the destitute of Africa is perpetuated by nasties like the rotten Chinese regime and others like them. They have armed the renegades in Africa who have raped, pillaged and mudered as China reaps the spoils of minerals and other resources. Meanwhile the rest of the World tends to sit on the sidelines and watch the human misery unfold year after year after year!

POPSAustralia is capitulating on whaling protest! It is clear the Australian Government is now reneging on its commitment to fight the Japanese whaling at every level. They are now resorting to limited opposition to whaling through diplomatic channels which are little better than "talkfests"! The Australian people are generally forthright, bold and honest - their Government is not reflecting such qualities in the whaling situation!

POPSIs the Rudd Government now all talk? Sadly it looks increasingly that the great moves initially by the Rudd Government of Australia have become little more than "hot air". As if we need more Global warming! Sea Shepherd have been left to soldier on alone as the Japanese practise their butchering of the whales. Garrett, Australia's environment spokesman was full of noise prior to his election - now he is ominously quiet. The excuse is that Australia is using diplomatic channels - and we know how mind-numbingly slow progress there can be devoid of the public gaze! Comeon "Ozzies" stir the tripe out of your Government - it needs a rocket up its backside!

POPSLives lost in the name of greed and BIG oil This article highlights why the wars that have cost in so many ways - it's all about greed and profit by the bloated, powerful oil barons. We have been misled totally - and the cost to the World in human tragedy has been horrendous. This needs to be exposed - BIG time>

POPSGreed is the root cause of our collective problem in the meltdown We are seeing a meltdown essentially brought about by collective greed, ignorance and selfishness - no question. Perhaps now, as our savings and jobs evaporate we may better understand the plight of our planet, the young, the vulnerable,etc that we have tended to ignore for years.

POPSChina scams can kill - and they continue to! New Zealand's biggest dairy company bought into China and had its fingers badly burned as the scamsters in China doctored their milk. The big dollars lured our major company now they have become victims of Chinese scam. A huge cost for a pretty basic lesson.

POPSA President whose time has come! Ex President Clinton is about to shine and not before time; like Al Gore and Bill Gates these guys have the ability to really lead now. The World needs their wisdom.

POPSBottled water really is often a polluted offering Too many think if it is bottled it must be good water - not so. And the plastic bottles are a major environmental problem. The cost of transporting this product in energy terms is also immense. We need to think better!

POPSChina pays a high price for environmental indifference! As it vandalizes much of the natural World in its bid to exploit natural resources China's years of indifference to environmental woes is coming to haunt its leaders. Bravo! All the pomp and ceremony could well be shrouded by a real "pea soup" of pollution. It fits well in a nation which obscures its abuses of human rights, its willingness to tolerate so much fake in medicines, products, etc. Its time for China to "come clean" in more ways than just its smog!

POPSGreat source of power As we despair at energy sources some very basic considerations have been clearly overlooked. Mother Nature offers answers and many of these concepts cleanup our environment in the process.

POPSJapan plans more whaling kills Japan is a disgrace and the insipid posturing of World delegates was such that Japan achieved an ability to carry on whaling. We are being led by whimps!

POPSJapan is finally feeling the heat on whaling Notwithstanding that a hopelessly astray Kiwi (Glenn Inwood quoted here) sees fit to go against the views of most of his fellow Kiwis, Japan is becoming increasingly pressured to stop whaling. Their days of working scams and shams to continue whaling are coming to an end. As a fellow Kiwi I hope the Japanese offer Glenn Inwood sufficient inducement to leave New Zealand. He doesn't represent the views of most Kiwis - in fact he shames us!
