POPSGood Boat Rocking in the Bronx - Home Run! Full cycle learning comes when you can teach someone else what you have learned. Here is young people in the city learning there is nothing they cannot do, if they put their minds and bodies to it. Even building a boat for the Hudson River from tree up!

POPSSo, Why did you Cut Down the Rainforest? Uh, i needed a parking lot. Panamanians learned well from their former colonial master, the USA - greed and laziness rule - if you are going ot cut down a rain forest - do it on a weekend or a holiday - no one will notice or care???

POPSWalmart Caskets: Buy Your Final Resting Place Online If you are going to buy one of these things it would be a good idea to find out who makes it (is it American made or did it come from China). You wouldn’t want it to fall apart on you. Not that you would know. Which invites shoddy workmanship, because after all it only needs to hold together until it’s in the ground.

POPSThe REAL "Inconvenient Truth": Cell Phones and Bee Colony Collapse
Honey bees are in effect saying, "Can you hear us now?" The consequences of inaction on this are real and enormous. But unlike oil, coal or "carbon emissions", not even Al Gore or Obama will advocate giving up or curbing cell phones or towers, even though the hard facts on this are much more threatening to agriculture, and by consequence human life, the economy of foods, and the entire eco-system than the mythical "global warming" doomsday scenerio. Cell phones are America's and the world's unnecessary CONVENIENCE that apparently are not even being debated by the Climate people, willing to sacrifice the pollination of food crops by honey bees for cell chat. The buzz is real, but governments are not moving to regulate, and are likely too afraid of consumers who do not care about consequences any more than those who throw fast food trash out the window of their cars. There is also hard evidence of radiation from cell phones directly damaging human health.

POPSSodaStream -Will this avoid the Soda Tax? Will this and some homebrew beer avoid the Obama non-tax soda tax? Might be a big seller if the tax goes through... and it's good for the environment.... what will they ever do? Probably find a way to tax it also.

POPSHowl of the unhinged is scary voice of America's "culture war"
More: The report provides troubling context for the outrageous behavior that has attended the election of our first African-American president. When you call them on that behavior, Barack Obama's detractors love to accuse you of equating dissent with racism. It is a specious argument. I disagree with the president's use of signing statements… but it would never occur to me to carry a sign vowing death to him, his wife and their "two stupid kids" as a protester in Maryland did, or to pray that Obama dies of brain cancer as a "minister" in Arizona does, or to heckle him during a joint session of Congress as Rep. Joe Wilson infamously did. That's not dissent. It is the howl of the unhinged and the entitled. The same folks who were complacent as President Bush spent surplus into deficit, wasted $600 billion dollars and 4,000 American lives on the wrong war, and watched a major American city drown are morally outraged because the new guy wants to reform health care?

POPSConfess Your EcoSin and Get EcoTools I'm tempted to go comment with some story about how I just took my full-size Hummer down the street 3 inches to get a rain-forest destroying double Whopper with a non sugar-taxed regular Coke.
