10% of world's largest companies (Global 500) produce 73% of greenhouse gases

Fifty of the 500 largest listed companies in the world are responsible for nearly three quarters of the group?s 3.6 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, so finds the CDP Global 500 Climate Change Report 2013 released. The carbon emitted by these 50 highest emitting companies, which primarily operate in the energy, materials and utilities sectors, has risen by 1.65% to 2.54 billion metric tons over the past four years. This increase is equivalent to adding more than 8.5 million pickup trucks to the streets, or the supply of electricity to 6 million homes for a year[1].

Nations, Do Not Wait for the Energy Corporations!

Your country can reduce the price of electricity by greater than half with clean power! We can reduce our electricity price and the expenditures for heating and driving our car by two thirds.

NSA Stores Data to Target Any Citizen at Any Time

By RT

The current revelations on the NSA s spying are just the tip of the iceberg and affect "almost every country in the world," said Glenn Greenwald. He stressed the NSA stores data for "as long as it can," so they can target a citizen whenever they want.

"What we revealed is that this spying system is devoted not to terrorists, but is directed to innocent people around the world," Greenwald told CNN's Christiane Amanpour.

The whole surveillance state must go

Independent Institute
by Anthony Gregory

10/30/13

The government seeks to have all the data it can possibly get, and keep tabs on every documented detail in your life. They will share this data with law enforcement agencies that have nothing to do with terrorism, which is itself a minuscule threat compared to what America faced during the Cold War. The only way to stop this is a nationwide movement to restore the Fourth Amendment completely. No more warrantless searches, for any reason: drugs, guns, taxes, money laundering or terrorism. This system cannot be reformed, because the system, from top to bottom, is all aimed at abolishing every last bit of personal privacy...

A government of secrecy and fear

Tenth Amendment Center
by Andrew P. Napolitano

11/03/13

When Gen. Keith Alexander, the head of the NSA, was confronted with this litany of unlawful and unconstitutional behavior, he replied by claiming that his spies have saved the U.S. from 54 terrorist plots. He pleaded with lawmakers not to strip him of the power to spy or of the billions they have given him to spend on spying, lest another 9/11 plot befall us. Many Americans were willing to make this trade: spy on 330,000,000 Americans in order to stop 54 plots. But the government lacks the moral and constitutional power to compel this trade, because the right to privacy is a personal, individual and inalienable right, and so it cannot lawfully be taken away by majority vote (which never happened) or by secret fiat (which did happen)...
