Pilot Whales Beached in Florida Everglades -why?
US Navy SONAR war games, like the COMPTUEX - 'composite
training unit exercise' ocean war games (involving the USS George H Bush CVN77 and other vessels) going on off Florida at the time of the strandings, interferes with feeding of whales, and also interferes with migration and parent-calf bonding. With SONAR devices being lowered into the sea by helicopters, this is almost certainly the work of the US Navy.
Attacking Fracking- OOG's battle against dirty energy:
Attacking Fracking
Greedy scumbags milk the Earth
Squeeze her bosom for all she’s worth
Across the plains beneath the sea
Fracking scars are all you see
Pour hot acid in a festering sore
Melting rock to get a little bit more
From holes in the ground that spew such waste
Caring not how our faucets taste
Angry at Verizon for handing personal info to the snoopers, our family made the phone switch to CREDO, a new age service that uses their profits to make the world better instead of worse. With their activism and ours, it was a perfect match. Recently, they sent an e mail asking if folks in my area would be willing to embark on one of their famous Credo ‘actions’. It seems that oil companies and politicians have gotten a bit too cozy, and as the oil wells fade, a plan is afoot that is similar to getting the last drops of toothpaste from a tube. They call it Fracking. Fracking and a similar process (called ‘acidization’) are about the greediest, dirtiest, most polluting and ill-advised evils from people who really know how to do evil. And we are finding out now, that without ever telling anyone, they’ve been poisoning us with it for years, on land and under the ocean! So of course, I agreed to be CREDO team leader on this action.
The Action
With Governor Brown basically handing toxic polluting industry all they want in his old age, the people are rising up in California. We are pushing back against things like the water canals and now, against fracking. The best of our Assembly members have signed on to a letter asking the Governor for a moratorium on fracking effective immediately. But State Senator Bill Monning has refused, and on his own site, he defends SB4, the Senate Bill by ‘Fracking Fran’ Pavley. This bill gave big oil the green light to poison our water with fracking. In some places, tap water can actually be lit with a match!
So I led a small party of ‘fracktivists’ to meet with Monning’s staff at his office in San Luis Obispo, asking him to sign on to the fracking moratorium letter. Great people showed up- from the Nurses Union, from Clean Water Action (www.slocleanwateraction.org), and others. Our talking points were well-honed. We sat with two Monning aides in a rear office, speaking one at a time, voicing our concerns. When it was my turn to speak, a knock came at the outside door, and the lady aide rushed out to let them in- or so I thought! I stopped speaking so she wouldn’t miss the points I made, but she never did return. So I got up to see what was going on, and there she was, at the doorway, holding three good fracktivists at bay, denying them entry! Well, I know a picture is worth a thousand words, so I crept up behind and snapped the photo for this report. It really tells it all. Monning is a co-author of the Fracking Fran Pavley Bill, SB4, and he doesn’t want to ban poisoning our water- he just wants to ‘regulate it’.
“Why did you take a picture?!” the lady aide admonished.
“Because I’m going to write a story telling people that you denied people entry to this meeting” I answered. She was very angry.
“I don’t appreciate that you’re spinning it!” she shouted. “There’s no room for them, that’s all!”
I looked around at the empty chairs nearby.
“There are three empty chairs. There were three people at the door. What kind of balony are you telling us?” I asked.
Beware of Fracking, folks. And beware of the slimy politicians who want to hide in backrooms and lock people out because they have come to hold the decision makers accountable.
