It's a scandalous spam trying to manipulate WDDM(ant)
members into fattening pseudo-ecological fraud.
The manipulation of the bandwagon got so
efficient that the above statement will be taken
by most if not by all list members as a blasphemy.
Rational justification in appendix, without hope
to convince anybody, as rational arguments are
less than dust under the all-crushing wheels of
the bandwagon.

======================================================
Appendix
Global Warming (GW) is doubtless one of the most
important, critical problems the mankind is facing.
It concerns science, sociology, economy and
politics.
Unfortunately, it became entirely confined in
politics
which discovered its panic generating
quality. Now, panic is the strongest lever in
political campaigns.
We saw it at work, triggering the Iraq war. BTW,
I'm not arguing for, nor against Iraq war, as it
would not be pertinent to the issue, but just
stress the role of panic in politics.
The discovery of GW as panic generating political
lever has to be ascribed to Margaret Thatcher who
did not care a button about climate, but searched
a ruse to suppress the revolt of callously
exploited coal miners. Using it slickly and
astutely in her wake, some Obama or Clinton may
be elected. With what impacton the GW and its
sequels?
Rigorously, NONE.
They don't care a damn about it, else than as
the political lever and even if they cared, they
could not
do anything.
Let's try to examine the problem coolly and
logically.
GW has two kinds of causes: human and natural, the
latter earth bound and cosmic.
Starting with natural, we observe that GW happened
several times in history as one of two phases of a
more general cyclic structure GW/GF (Global Freezing).
As it's easier to explicate separately GW and GF, we
shall start by it before moving to their more complex
cyclic reversion and succession. Historic cycles had
clearly natural causes, most of which are unexplained
if not unknown. One, however, is rigorously, albeit
only qualitatively known: melting and re-freezing of
glaciers and other ice caps.
Earth surface encompasses white ice areas reflecting
heat radiated by the sun and other dark ones absorbing
it. In a steady state of ice/not-ice distribution and
constant amount of radiated heat, the absorption to
reflection ratio stays constant and the climate does
not change. Yet, the smallest distortion may change
this equilibrium.
Let's suppose that one year the sun emits more heat
and then returns to the constant yearly amount.
The triggering change warms up the earth more than
usually, so that more ice melts. Then, next year less
heat is reflected and more absorbed, so that still
more ice melts and we enter the recursive chain of
the GW phase. Nothing seems to stay in the way of
earth losing all its ice caps and becoming a Sahara
interspaced with hot seas. Yet, each GW was followed
by a GF, in turn by a GW, etc.
Which natural mechanism may reverse GW into GF and
vice versa?
There must be several earth bound and cosmic, mostly
unknown, but regarding our ice driven cycle, the
answer is clear: the salt.
Oceans are salted and salt waters freeze at lower
temperature than the sweet. Snows and ice melting
copiously during the GW, flood oceans with sweet water
decreasing their salinity and increasing their
freezing temperature, so that over a threshold they
start to freeze again over larger surfaces and the
phase moves to GF and towards a new glacial period.
Pseudo-scientific committees commanded by politicians,
proclaimed that GW is caused with 80% certainty by
human actions, and reversible by their reversal.
Double lie:
1."Caused" should be replaced with "triggered". It's
possible that greenhouse triggered GW, as any tiny
distortion could disarrange the fragile unstable
equilibrium. However, once triggered and entered in
the ice melting phase, GW is CAUSED by ice melting.
Similarly, a tour of pedals may push a bike over the
summit and TRIGGER its descent whose CAUSE is,
however, a natural agent, the gravity.
2.Supposing that Greenhouse indeed triggered the GW,
its triggering effect loses all avail upon entering
the ice melting phase, which thrives by its own
recursion and certainly cannot be "un-triggered" by
decreasing of emissions nor even by their hypothetical
total suspension. The pedals might have triggered the
descent, but you may turn them backwards on your
freewheel bike till you are blue in the face. Gravity
will not notice it and the descent will continue
undisturbed, just like the GW, unaffected by Kyoto
Protocols, by green presidential campaigns and by the
anti-American propaganda. Until the bike has passed
the valley and, always by natural causes, starts
climbing the opposite slope, or the GW phase switches,
always by natural causes, to the GF phase.
Which actions seem advisable in this light?
1.Dissociate GW from Greenhouse, admit that it is
inevitable and start immediately to plan actions
aiming at saving millions endangered by inundations,
(expatriation, artificial islands, etc.) and other
sequels of the GW.
2.In order to finance these actions, stop subsidizing
fraudulent and useless phantasms such as intermittent
energy sources (photo-voltaic and mainly the wind
mafia steeling and sharing with corrupted politicians
heavy billions from the tax payers.)
Dissociate pollution from GW. Pollution is a critical
problem in itself and should be treated as such, but
separately from GW. And if we want to discuss it, we
should do it in a separate thread.

Dear All,
It is time to accept that this work is expensive.
WDDM had a goal to carry
the message about the benefits and methods to
develop I&BR to "The WORLD".
To accomplish this WDDM must have brochures, video,
speakers available and
presented on Media for all to see. This takes money.
1. We need a Infrastructure which is accountable and
Secure to accomplish
this.
2. We need to get a non-profit License to accomplish
this.
3. We need a Pay Pal account so people can donate
4. We need a (limited) bank card to use like a
credit card on the internet.
It is costly, here is Move On regarding environment:
Avaaz.org <http://avaaz.org/> is launching an
emergency drive to mobilize
its members around the world organizing, country
by country, to resist Bush
and press forward on climate change. And they've
asked for our help.
A donor has pledged to match contributions from
MoveOn members, dollar for
dollar, up to $250,000 enough to dramatically
broaden Avaaz's organizing
power on every continent. *Can you help to fund this
emergency global
climate campaign?* Click here to donate:
https://secure.avaaz.org/en/earth_versus_bush/
Normally, as Americans, we focus our energy on
changing US policies in part
because they have such a big impact on the rest of
the world. *But at this
moment, one of the most powerful ways to fight
climate change is to support
progressives in other countries who are fighting to
ensure that their
governments stand strong against Bush.*

few nickels in a shoe
