We need to go on a "Low Carbon Diet". The Earth was not given to us by our parents...it is on loan to us by our childern. We need to take care of it for them and their children.

***The Global Non-transferable 0.5 limit plan***

The basis of the argument...

1) we are approximately 50% over global carrying capacity as a species.

2) one child can carry the biological records for two...where a second child assumes the burden of the necessary reduction in population be an involuntary forfeiture of the biological records of two other individuals...

3) under awareness of said earth system stress levels, and loss of specification, many may voluntarily forfeit the passing of their biology as a means of preserving species on the brink, and securing planetary health, while insuring the right of humans to breed, should they choose to, remain an accessible option....in order that this wish be respected, these voluntary forfeitures must not be allowed to become a birth credit to be assumed by any existing parent, maternal, paternal, or both, in the case of a second potential child.

In order that human rights be observed:

The following proposal sites the rights of children not yet created as per 1) that they may not be born into a world that cannot adequately support them, or if this world can arguably support them, that one may site a degraded world relative to that which the potential child’s forbears enjoyed would be the child’s inheritance…

The following proposal sites the right of humans to procreate as per 2), while imposing limits to protect the rights of others who may choose to employ this right…

The following proposal sites the right to chose not to reproduce, as per 3)

Proposed proceedings to safe guard these rights are as follows, and are to be applied equally on a global scale to all members of the human populous.

Initial Proceedings:

all male parents of existing children, that are not already fixed, would need to schedule an appointment to address the situation, or face issuance of a warrant for their arrest for obstruction of justice and associated fines....

all female parents of two or more existing children that are not fixed, would need to schedule an appointment to address the situation, or face issuance of a warrant for their arrest for obstruction of justice and associated fines....

all female parents of fewer than two existing children, should be informed that weather though abstinence, birth control, selection of a fixed male partner, or any other means, they may wish to avoid fines and procedures.

Protocol:

Post conception the suspected father would be incarcerated until such a
time that it can be determined beyond question that he indeed is the
father...If he is not the father, he is free to go... The woman
then, would be incarcerated until such a time as she could provide sufficient information to bring the father of her child into custody..Upon determination, the father of the child would undergo vasectomy before being released...

Should the mother choose to terminate the pregnancy in the first trimester, the father would be released unaltered. If she does not choose to terminate the pregnancy within the first trimester, this becomes a default decision to carry the child to term under the fore mentioned proceedings.

In any cases of a potential child , by a parent of an existing child, paternal, maternal or both, the offender(s) would have the choice of aborting the child or being put to death. The former decision inclusive of fines issued to a father potentially twice ,for assuming what should rightfully be the woman's choice, and issued to a mother potentially twice, as a means of securing finance for the tubal she would receive in post.

TODAY...The nation's most important leaders in energy reform are gathering with T. Boone Pickens at the National Clean Energy Project Summit to tackle the critical issues of ushering in a new era of renewable energy and ending our dependence on foreign oil. This event will feature a lot of people who know what they are talking about when it comes to energy policy - including John Podesta from the Center for American Progress Action Fund, U.S. Senator Harry Reid, President Bill Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, Secretary of Energy Steven Chu, Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Climate Czar Carol Browner, Owens-Corning CEO Michael Thaman, American Electric Power President & CEO Mike Morris, Sierra Club Executive Director Carl Pope, American Wind Energy Association CEO Denise Bode, Riverkeeper Alliance Chief Prosecuting Attorney Robert Kennedy, Jr. and many others.

Watch the live roundtable discussion on Monday, Feb. 23, at 10:15 a.m. ES

Copy,Paste,and Send to everyone you know.

America is sitting on an amazing untapped wind resource,the wind corridor that stretches from Texas to North Dakota...our population is stabilized but our agricultural lands are devastated from decades of food exports.

with bio-char production as dump load regulation,in conjunction with power storage solutions the wind power capacity can go in at an astounding rate...the wind fixes the soil ,the soil sequesters the carbon and gives life......our entire world is unsustainable as is, and the changes required don't stop there...what will it take to get you out of your arm chair?

Mr.Pickens is out of his....and i'm sure as hell not going to tell him to sit down.

Commence Anarchy!!!!

find your place in the future...(any one who thinks someone else is going to do it for them is dead weight)...if nothing else..get the message out.


..Big turbines+big wind = bang/buck. leave the NG in the electrical power pie and promote people powered people transport and community NEV cargo fleets for grid blasting,and pv installations for reduced grid load.use excess capacity as an opportunity to phase out old,non-combined cycle, coal plants. wile phasing in ETT maglev to replace continental flights and interstate traffic.


stop at one consider none = less mouths to feed..(no time for day care or labor/delivery here)

suburban conversion project....suburban basements are reconfigured to earth sheltered green houses for food production..garages become houses with reconstruction leftovers....cold climates get south facing glazings at Latitude +21 degrees...two runs of 6' culvert pipe between basement and garage for thermal transfer.

Maglev is a smarter way to say good-bye to oil



22 October 2008



Our economy, standard of living, and national security in the U.S. depend on efficient, effective, and affordable autos, trucks, airplanes, and trains. But rapidly escalating oil prices and America's increasing dependence on expensive oil imports from hostile and politically unstable countries threatens all three. The situation, bad as it is now, will get much worse in the coming years as world oil production declines.



The major mode of transport in the 21st century will be electric autos and trucks, and maglev (Magnetic Levitation). Oil-fueled autos and trucks will become as obsolete as coal-fired trains are today.



Why will this happen?



World oil reserves are running out while demand keeps rising.
There are no practical alternative fuels to oil. Biofuels can meet only a tiny fraction of U.S. transport needs and they drive up food prices. Hydrogen fuel requires impossible amounts of energy to produce it, and has insurmountable safety and security problems. Synfuels from coal and oil shale will greatly increase carbon dioxide emissions, speeding up global warming.
Oil-fueled transport is a major cause of global warming, due to the carbon dioxide emissions from its tailpipes. As the developing world adopts the American lifestyle, global warming will rapidly accelerate, with incredible damage to the environment and human society.
Even though modern maglev was invented by two American scientists - Drs. James Powell and Gordon Danby in the 1960's - the U.S. is behind the curve in the development of electric transport. The federal government started a maglev research program, but dropped it in 1973. However, other countries took up the slack and now lead the world in operating first generation maglev systems.



Japan's first-generation Superconducting Maglev system, which is based on the 1960's inventions of Powell and Danby, has carried over 50,000 passengers and holds the world ground speed record of 361 mph. Japan plans to build a 300 mph maglev line between Tokyo and Osaka that will carry over 100,000 passengers daily. Germany has also developed a first-generation maglev that uses conventional electromagnets rather than superconducting magnets. The maglev train in Shanghai, China, was built by Germany.



-James Jordan, DC Examiner Staff Writer
President of the Interstate Maglev Project

the bridge to the future seem to be collapsing under the weight of minds chained to boat anchors resembling automobiles (of any kind) A gallon of gas is the equivalent of 500 human hours of labor, so the future may see some changes. Even the lowest-paid worker might baulk at wages of a penny an hour -- when gas is $5 a gallon.

http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/Research.html#anchor_71

we have "discharged" the plethora of condensed solar energy called oil ,that took millions of years to create under very energy intensive pressures and heat...in the span of a few hundred years( give it up ).....reconfiguring our systems to operate on available ambient is going to require copious amounts of energy from every available resource,and a commitment to frugality(after being given a warning, non human powered"recreational" vehicle operators may be shot on sight )...if your legs work, use them...there are simple machines widely distributed that will allow you to increase your mechanical advantage for transportation purposes (they are called bicycles).....

Reqauntifying energy to a common unit:our current agricultural machine puts food on the plate at an efficiency of ten calories in/ one calorie out..
