Thanks For Offering Me Your Buttons!

Joseph Raglione

Gentle readers within this American Chronicle, go out and buy a Button!

Dear Natalie Foster:

If I were an American I would run out and by your button, but I am not an American and I am basically broke, therefore, I will not run out and buy your button.

My problem is that I am a social scientist and free press journalist who does not fully understand why your President Barack Obama is stalling on the environment issue?

Why does Barack Obama believe that Carbon sequestration is a solution to pollution? There are so many alternative methods for harnessing energy today that choosing to bury Co2 sounds, and most likely is, ridiculous! Is he doing it to get the Chinese to bury their C02 emissions? I would understand that because China does burn a lot of Coal...but why does Barack continue to import dirty Oil from the Tar Sands of Canada? Will he wait until the Hole becomes so large, Canada disappears?

The World is not waiting for the United States to take a stand. Russian social policies are ahead of the U.S. when it comes to moving rapidly away from fossil fuels, and Shanghai China has an Electric Bus system that rivals the best in the world. It certainly is possible to generate Clean Electricity with: Hydro Dams, Wind Generators, Solar Heat, Windmills on top of Office Tower buildings, Geothermal heat sources and slow moving Ocean currents. Energy can also be produced by placing Solar Panels on Electric Automobiles. Simply by parking the Automobile in the Sun, Electricity can be returned to the grid. It is also possible to conserve energy with well insulated houses and buildings and it is possible to produce Electricity every time a human being opens a door, anywhere on Earth. The door gives a small shove...like the power generated when you brake your Car...to a constantly spinning yet heavy and well balanced Electric Turbine within or close to the building. Where there is a high level of human traffic, like Subways and Train Stations and Airport Terminals, human powered spinning Turbines would help produce Electricity for the buildings.


But thanks, Natalie, for offering me a button!

Subject: Your new button

Joseph --

We just launched our new Organizing for America online store, and I wanted to make sure you saw it.

There are a bunch of new products to choose from, but there's one item in particular I hope you'll pick up.

As the President often reminds us, the real change we all fought so hard for has only just begun.

Our "Community Organizer" button shows that you understand the importance of building a door-by-door, block-by-block organization, and that you're hard at work making it happen.

The "Community Organizer" button is just $5 -- and shipping is free. Check it out.

Proudly wearing your OFA gear -- whether this button or any of the other items -- is a great way to show your support and spread the word about our ongoing campaign for change.

There are T-shirts, buttons, and stickers, as well as a fleece, hat, and water bottle.

They're all union-printed and American-made, and feature our updated logo.

Check out the new "Community Organizer" button here:

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!
