POPS Are Planets 'Living Super-Organisms'? more (at source): He wants to find out if the continents will merge again in 250 million years to form a single super-continent; how meteorites change the chemical composition of the Earth; and what the connection is between the temperature of a planet and its magnetic field, which protects plants and animals from being bombarded with cosmic radiation, which in turn influences the rate of mutations and thus the development of new forms of life.

POPSReport Shows Greater Peril for World's Threatened Animals and Plants The newest report also includes assessments of 845 species of corals. Already more than a quarter are considered threatened, with climate change added to the list of threats they face. Still, IUCN cautions that the health of marine life could be worse than expected, as relatively little is known about biodiversity in the oceans. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIJHaQ8EGn0

POPSHere's How My Cap-and-Trade Plan Works You know the Cap-and-Trade bill that Democrats narrowly passed late last week? The bill -- the ill-named "American Clean Energy And Security Act of 2009, H.R. 2454") -- consists of well over a thousand pages of government intrusions into every aspect of your life. Among other things, the bill regulates farming; fertilizers; animal husbandry and animal diets; feedstock; soil; light bulbs; home mortgages; banking; power generation and transmission; water and sewer systems; manufacturing; building codes; land use (forested, cleared, wetlands, etc); "manure management"; and creates gigantic new government bureaucracies (unionized, of course) to regulate, control, monitor and audit American citizens. It even reaches into your neighborhood and overrides Home Owners Assocation agreements. Most importantly for companies, it specifies "emission allowances" for carbon dioxide. You know, the stuff that plants breathe and we exhale.

POPSCap and Trade Bill Bringing Refinery Closures Of course, the elitists who voted for this monstrosity aren’t worried about any of this. After all, they’ll continue to ensure they take care of themselves, and mostly at taxpayer expense. We shouldn’t forget that, after all, some people in the New America are “more equal” than others. Few acts could rival the hostility toward the American people and American prosperity than this abomination of a bill passed by the House on Friday. We have come to the previously unimaginable point where it is abundantly clear that the American government is overtly hostile toward it’s own people. Thank God the American people are starting to wake up to this despicable reality, as evidenced by the Tea Party movement. We have our work cut out for us, in stopping the destructive work of these domestic enemies now, and permanently removing them from office in the upcoming rounds of elections.

POPSIt’s Time to Learn From Frogs It should be a wake-up call. There is accumulating evidence that male sperm count is dropping and that genital abnormalities in newborn boys are increasing. There is also some evidence from both humans and monkeys that endometriosis, a gynecological disorder, is linked to exposure to endocrine disruptors. Researchers also suspect that the disruptors can cause early puberty in girls. “This can influence brain development, sperm counts or susceptibility to cancer, even where the animal at birth seems perfectly normal.”
