Verizon Sponsoring Anti-Climate Rally Backed By Coal Giant

Max Eternity - It has long been apparent to me that in so many instances one will find  the same crowd that endorsed the Bush pResidency, hangs with the same crowd that's against healthcare, is the same crowd that is pro-war, is the same crowd that denies global warming, is the same crowd that watches and believes everything they hear on FOX News. 

There is more than enough available data that easily connects all these dots together.  And in yet another unsurprising twist, comes (see below) this story.  Why is this relevant?  Because for the last 7 years or so, in my own thorough, independent research, I've discovered an definitive link between cell phone radiation and the sharp rise in cancers occuring (amongst cell phone users) in various parts of the head, including the brain; with (as is the case with most dis-ease) children being most vulnerable.

Shoudl cell phones be outlawed, not necessarily.  Should coal be outlawed, not necessarily.  BUT, we should be told the full, transparent, unvarnished truth about the impact these things have on our health and well being.

Making money--having a thriving economy does not automatically mean a slow walk to self-destruction.

From ThinkProgress:

On Labor Day, tens of thousands of people [1] will be gathering for the coal-powered “Friends of America Rally [2]” in Holden, WV. The point of the gathering is to rail against the Waxman-Markey clean energy legislation. It will feature right-wing guests such as Sean Hannity and Ted Nugent (who once ranted about killing Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton [3]), and is being pushed by mountaintop-removal mining company Massey Energy. Last week, Massey CEO Don Blankenship even recorded a video inviting people to attend the rally, saying they would learn about how “environmental extremists and corporate America are both trying to destroy your jobs.”

The sponsors for the rally are mostly regional oil, gas, and coal companies. However, the list [4] also includes the Science and Public Policy Institute — a fringe climate-denial organization — and Verizon Wireless. Read more [5].
