TPP passes initial vote–why it should be stopped now
Prologue: I’m in a video. Did you know? Not the ones I’ve been in usually, but one made by my pal Monica Hunken (with cinematography and production work by Owen Crowley) about the TPP and it’s here: (if the video doesn’t play, you can always just follow the link to Youtube. If you […]
93 million: an update
Since I seem to be in update mode, I thought I’d share this. I’ll try to keep things simple. Back in May I wrote that a count of adults unemployed or underemployed in the current economy indicated that there were some 93 million working age Americans who weren’t in the workforce in any reasonable way […]
my 10.03.2015 prediction: the clock is ticking
In June, I made a prediction about October 3 of this year. Actually, I didn’t make the prediction, someone named Malcolm Light did and I posted it here. The prediction was that October 3 was going to be the last day when humans could do anything to prevent runaway global warming and (by extension) mass extinction. […]
Stop a pipeline, prevent a meltdown
I don’t usually ask readers to sign on to be troublemakers, but something seriously stupid and dangerous is about to be built and stopping it is necessary if people want to live around this part of NY. The Spectra folks, who put that amazingly dangerous 30″ natural gas pipeline under the Whitney museum, are building […]

It’s a done deal. I will be performing my 9/11 play THE STORY OF FALLING DON on Saturday November 7. The play is being performed at Our Saviour’s Atonement Lutheran Church in Washington Heights (NYC).

Ejection of ALL fuel from TEPCO Reactor 2
Reblogging this because it’s reinforcement of some earlier articles I had posted about Japan. More proof that (thanks to Fukushima) there’s enough radiation in the atmosphere to make our survival of climate collapse an afterthought. There’s a graphic that I’m adding here (also from Tekknorg) that applies. Thanks to Tekknorg for keeping on the story.
More on Exxon Revelations
A Democracy NOW interview with a reporter from Inside Climate Change who broke the story about Exxon’s knowledge of Climate warming back in the late 1970s. Worth 13 minutes of your time. This is Not Cool Interview with Neela Banerjee, lead reporter on the bombshell series of revelations from Inside Climate News, – what Exxon […]
Capitalism’s self-cannibalizing ways
Last week I told you a wonderful story of Exxon and Shell and Global Warming. Specifically, I relayed the information now made available about how back in the late 1970’s, Exxon’s research scientists confirmed a link between the burning of fossil fuels and climate warming (and kept the news to themselves). Shell Oil’s disingenuous ways involve what […]
Don’t know much about AGW–EXXON KNEW
This is a series I’ve posted in from time to time. The point of the title (‘don’t know much about….’) is meant to highlight a subject that I’ve found to be generally misunderstood or not part of the general knowledge of most people. The inspiration for the series was Kenneth C Davis‘ DON’T KNOW MUCH […]
California Governor Warns of Coming Climate Refugee Crisis
Governor Moonbeam says what no one else in the US political arena will say regarding US climate warming producing its own stream of refugees. One year of decent ‘normal’ rain and snow will not begin fix California or the rest of the drought stricken areas west of the Mississippi. There’s no fixing this absent some […]
