This is laughable. Three environmental groups are targeting plants in the Maryland region because of mercury contamination. Paper mills and energy companies are in the crosshairs as this article reports only 1/70th of a teaspoon of mercury is needed to contaminate a 25-acre lake. Now for the laughable part: what happens to all of these CFL bulbs that are due to replace incandescent bulbs in 2012? They do contain mercury and, even with the most stringent recycling programs, many Americans are going to put them …

Although I am a Mac convert from early 2006 with my first Intel-based iMac and several additions to the Mac family over the years, I’ve always been dismayed at Al Gore’s presence on the board of directors at Apple.  Nonetheless, I love my Mac, even if Apple is buying the green movement.  There’s even a new update to System Preferences.  The old energy saver icon that was depicted by an incandescent bulb has been replaced by a CFL bulb.  Just be careful if you drag it to the trash on …

Having watched Sarah Palin’s speech tonight during the broadcast of the Republican National Convention, she certainly seems like a go-getter and a bulldog.  From budget reform in Alaska to gas tax revenue refunds for taxpayers, it seems a nod for Palin is a good choice for America.  What struck me most during her nearly 45-minute speech, however, was a quick sentence or two that jabbed at leaders like Al Gore and Nancy Pelosi.  Palin said that she wants to drill in Alaska, but she wants to use all the resources …

Most of you that are skeptical of global warming see the explicit lifestyle choices being forced in your personal lives from new compact fluorescent light bulbs that contain mercury (and cost much more) to expensive gasoline that can be traced back to lack of action by environmentalists and the Democrats who love them.  But did you realize there’s a more sinister plan in the works?  It’s already being discussed in Britain and could make its way to the United States quickly if the global warming activists have their way.  It’s …

Researchers at Perdue have found a way to make LED lighting more efficient to manufacture with the ability to reduce energy use by one-third without that annoying CFL flicker and poisonous mercury.  Let’s hope this technological breakthrough won’t get hammered by the environmentalists like the new carbon dioxide scrubber.

I recently watched a re-run of the television series The Incredible Hulk, starring Lou Ferrigno and Bill Bixby.  In this episode, Bruce Banner attempted to use a radiation chamber in a nuclear plant to reverse the effects of the gamma rays that caused his monstrous condition.  The last thirty minutes of the episode dealt with an earthquake that caused the cooling systems to fail and a nuclear meltdown was imminent.  The entire city was evacuated.  Freeways were jammed with automobiles and residents fled for their lives.  But in the end, …

As the global warming hoax spreads around the world, it becomes more evident that some, besides Al Gore, stand to profit. This, from Read More: MoonBattery.com, says GE is having its mercury-filled fluorescent light bulbs pushed by legislation at the federal level as well as NBC spewing the global warming myth on its network.

Amid a frenzy of news reports covering backlash over skyrocketing food prices due to the corn-based ethanol boondoggle, the global warming hoax could be in trouble.
Time Magazine recently reported in the Clean Energy Scam that rain forests were disappearing at an alarming rate, thanks to biofuel use.  The sad part about biofuels is that they are less efficient than regular gasoline and release more emissions than traditional fuel.  Last year, the United States produced seven billion gallons of biofuel, which cost taxpayers around eight billion dollars, according to the Time Magazine article. …
