B.P. Oil Spill Disaster Continues! Toxic Corexit solvent was sprayed in the Gulf! ???

Joseph Raglione
Gentle readers of this American Chronicle, the Center For Biological Diversity is one of the best organizations within the U.S. for helping us stay on tract towards implementing the 'Clean Air Act'...>

Join the Center in the No More Oil Spills Month of Action.

Nearly three months after the oil-rig blowout that sent oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico, the spill continues to devastate our ocean and coasts.

The toll so far: 11 workers killed and numerous others sickened in the clean up; 1,789 birds, 457 sea turtles and 59 mammals (mainly dolphins) collected dead; tar balls polluting shores from Texas to Florida and now, oil stretching into Louisiana's Lake Pontchartrain. The Fishing industry....closed!

Cut and paste this url for a very sad Video...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu6XFJRxd9Y&feature=channel Our losses increase daily, with no certain end in sight.

Every day, people ask us what they can do about the catastrophe in the Gulf. Here's one concrete thing: Take part in the No More Oil Spills Month of Action. (Another vitally important thing to do is stop buying Gasolene and products made from Oil. Stop driving internal combustion engines! Ride a Bicycle to work or take a Bus or a Train. Ask where and when you can buy an all Electric vehicle. Contact Japan and ask where and when you can buy thin Solar Panels for your home. Actually make the effort because there are only about five years or less left before the Earth passes the global-warming tipping point of no return, and you can bet the Farm that rich and powerful people have both homes and gardens hidden high up in the Mountains, protected by high fences and security guards.)

This week, we need you to email your senators. Please contact them today and urge them to stop oil spills by moving us rapidly away from our dependence on fossil fuels. How? By protecting and implementing the Clean Air Act to curb carbon pollution without delay, and enacting a permanent moratorium on offshore oil drilling.

Corexit is a deadly toxic chemical harmful to humans and expecially to the humans now attempting to clean up the Oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Corexit is a neural toxic chemical that will poison and make people sick! Long term effects have yet to become evident; but for a good example, the past Exxon Valdex disaster is a strong indicator of what happens to locals twenty years later, after they worked hard cleaning up the Oil spill.

It is a safe bet that the people working to clean up the Gulf of Mexico Oil spill today, will experience severe consequences in the future!

From time to time, we'll be sending you news on our progress as well as articles, video clips, and interviews to keep you informed about what's going on in coastal Louisiana.

Thank you

About Joseph Raglione
Hi! I am the executive director of the World Humanitarian Peace and Ecology Movement. I began as an environmental activist in 1969 and basically, never stopped! I Graduated College in Social Science and registered as a non-profit corporation in 1988 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I am one of a very few non-profit and generic freedom loving journalists left on Earth, and I continue today to study and to understand the problems connected with human activity on this Planet. My affiliates include: GreenPeace, the Nature Conservancy, the Bio-diversity organization, the Sierra Club, the David Suzuky foundation, the WWF, Amnesty International, World Vision, the IUF organization; as well as the wonderful and independant N.A.S.A. scientists studying our Planet's weather systems. Of course NASA also studies the mysteries of the Eternal Universe with satelite generated images and, over the years, have generously allowed me and thousands of our world scientists to study over their shoulder's via the Internet.
In spite of some past U.S. government repression, NASA continues to provide solid evidence of global warming.
NASA has provided me with pictorial evidence of Rainforest deforestation within: Jakarta, Peru, Africa, Brazil and even in Western Canada!
The motivation for such destruction continues to be (often illegally) for: lumber, for bio-fuels, and for Cattle ranching. Today, the perceived future profits for Palm Oil and for Bio-Fuels are prime motivators for environmental destruction. Small crop farming also contributes but that may be changing as farmers learn to protect the Rain-Forest.
With NASA imaging, there is proof that large city heat traps are helping global warming, and with (infrared images)there is proof that several hundred million gas burning vehicles (including ship and airplanes) presently create a hugh quantity of pollution tracks across both Oceans and Sky.
With oil, gas, Coal and Bio-Fuel heated buildings around the world creating C02 emissions, and with Methane release from all animal species...giant Ozone holes have been created and continue to exist above the North and South Poles. Ozone holes allow the Sun to radiate the Ice Caps and to accelerate the Ice melt, which releases more Methane into the atmosphere, which continues to thin out the Ozone. A vicious circle created by human need and also, unhappily, by human greed!
I have been asked to write to the Prime Minister of Japan to ask him to stop the murderous assault on endangered Whales. Every year, thousands of Whales are killed in the Antarctic with GreenPeace volunteers placing themselves between the Whales and the grenade tipped harpoons, and peope like myself, (I did not forget this is my "Bio," putting my old neck on the line attempting to change the situation by writing thousands if not millions of words!
Are words dangerous?
Over three hundred journalists were killed within the last ten years. You tell me if words are dangerous!
As I write these words, the desperate and starving in Darfur are waiting for rescue. I motivated a few kind hearted California Actors to visit the region and to report back. They did! They then created the Darfur coalition and they continue to fight to save the innocent victims trapped in tents in the desert of the Sudan. Darfuri's were attacked and moved from their homes because somebody believes there is Oil under the Sudan desert.
As I write this, a few sick and desperate people in Iraq are wrapping bombs around themselves in order to die in the name of God, and the list of humanitarian disasters continues. I also contribute information to the Reuter's news service. It is time for a change. Please help make it happen!
