<html dir="ltr"> <head> <title>Apologies for any cross posting....

You must also see ‘Petropolis’ available on Amazon. 

What America needs is a reason for a war with Canada so they can invade and grab as they have done already to the rest of the world. I guess we are up that proverbial ‘.... creek without a paddle....’ 

However, I guess we need ask ourselves, just for perspective, when have peoples lives been more important than the extraction of even lesser amounts of wealth than the tar sands. Evaluate the personality of any people who would cut out and scalp an unborn fetus for a few dollars and decide for yourself if they are going to stop this greedy, insane ravaging. The tar sands are, for them, successful on two fronts...incredible wealth and population reduction in the sharing of that wealth. 

Ahh, what the hell can we do...forget it. Lets drive up for some chicken wings and a few beer...there is so much more easy stuff talk about....by the way...how’s the little one...the one with that...what do they call that kind of cancer again...where the hell are those wings and beer!!!!

(News Headline) War Dims Hope for Peace

Subject: eNews: International uprisings for forests and wild places

                    We want you to make this summer all about reconnecting with our magnificent woodlands. As we continue to push corporations to treat our wild places with respect in board rooms and on the streets, we're also taking time to appreciate the forests that sustain us (see photo right.) We hope to see you outside this summer!

                  1) International uprising against the Tar Sands
                  This past Saturday, people concerned about Canada’s Tar Sands -- ‘synthetic’ oil that starts with strip mines in the Boreal Forest -- joined in a day of unprecedented protests in more than 50 cities and 20 countries all over the world.. And ForestEthics led the charge by organizing more than 20 events in North America alone. The message we delivered: companies using fuel made by refineries from Tar Sands are making a bad choice for our forests and a bad choice for our world. 

                  That's why we're asking companies like Dole and Chiquita -- who ship bananas 3,000 miles or more partly with fuel from Tar Sands refineries -- to find cleaner fuel. Right now, every Dole and Chiquita banana supports Canada’s enormous Tar Sands strip mines that destroy vast swaths of the Boreal Forest, pollute water, and put local communities' health at risk.

                  Send a message to Dole and Chiquita, telling them you want Tar Sands-free bananas!

                  2) Dear Shell, We wish you weren't here!
                  We asked you to send a message to Shell, and the response was amazing: ForestEthics supporters all over the world have created more than 16,000 postcards to prevent Shell from fracking up the Sacred Headwaters! This important region is a sacred place for local First Nations communities, the origin of North America's most endangered salmon rivers (the Skeena, Stikine, and Nass) and home to families of grizzlies, caribou, and moose. To get a sense of what we love about the Sacred Headwaters -- and what's at stake in our campaign against Shell -- watch our video of ForestEthics’ campaigner Karen's journey from the Great Bear Rainforest to the heart of the Sacred Headwaters. 

                  As you read this, we’re putting the finishing touches on a plan to deliver your postcards in a (forest-friendly) way that Shell simply cannot ignore. Haven't filled out your postcard yet? Take action now!

                  3) Getting forest destruction out of your mailbox

                  We at ForestEthics have noticed a dramatic uptick in the amount of  junk mail coming to our mailboxes. If your house is like most people's, it's likely big banks, telecom corporations and insurance companies taking up the most space. Never fear -- ForestEthics is on the case. Stay tuned for our upcoming Green Grades report card on their paper practices. 

                  Check out ForestEthics Executive Director Todd Paglia's piece in the Huffington Post, "Return to Sender: Credit Card Offers are on the Rise."

                  4) Update on the Boreal Forest Agreement

                  This month marked the one-year anniversary of the Canadian Boreal Forest Agreement, but we’ve got a ways to go before we break out the bubbly. The reason? In the last year, we’ve seen too much talk about conservation, and not enough real-life conservation and protection for the Boreal Forest, caribou and other species at risk.

                  Nearly 4,000 ForestEthics supporters have already signed a petition to the organizations and companies working on this landmark conservation agreement. Will you add your voice, too?

                              Take Action:

                              Bananas taste great, but Chiquita and Dole’s support for toxic Tar Sands is really unappetizing. 
                              Tell Dole and Chiquita you want Tar Sands-free bananas!
