The Big Melt
Why doesn't global warming bother The Bushies?
Why do they lean on reactionary science & reactionary religion to avoid taking action?
In a word: OIL. & all the various ways to profit from oil.
It ain't old sinking New Orleans that concerns them.
The United States is one of only five nations (the others are Canada, Norway, Russia, Denmark)
with territorial claims in the Arctic Ocean. But in opening up Arctic resources, corporations will mostly call the shots. The New York Times began an important series earlier this month with
As Polar Ice Turns to Water, Dreams of Treasure Abound.
The second, Old Ways of Life Are Fading as the Arctic Thaws, was published today.
Free, register once & follow the melting permafrost to fabulous riches. But not our's.
