  bird flu

  Bird flu is like the human flu a problem when
  the immune system is not strong enough.
  All the chemicals, pestizides and fungizides,
  all the things we put in our animals to get more
  milk, more meat, less  deseases, mercury
  and hundreds of other chemicals are weakening our
  immune system.
  It weakens the immune system of the birds too.
  In the moment bird flu spreads only from animal to animal. We know of dead cats and tigers killed by bird flu. And we know of many DEAD children killed
  by bird flu.
  Untill today bird flue cannot be submitted through the air.
  The main concern is the the virus will mutate.
  When a human has a human flu virus and gets in contact with the deadly bird flu virus, both viruses
  are together in one body. The risk of mutation will
  be much higher.
  What can we do????
  Avoid contact with bird flu infected birds, especially when we have a flu!!!
  Children and older people have a weaker immune system - they should be very careful!
  When we find a dead bird, don't touch it!!!!!
  Call authorities!!! or our group - we can contact
  the right persons who have the protective clothing
  to handle the problem.
  Heat up your bird meat to boiling temperatures!
  Humans can get bird flu by contact.
  There are studies how many people will die
  if the virus mutates. Lowest number 2 Million - highest number 1.5 Billion humans.

  Manners or survival?

  I am born in Germany and like the very polite way the Americans behave. Americans as a group are very friendly people, but will friendliness help to give our children a safe future? The US-school system has failed to educate about the enviroment, the businesses have to look how to make money, and the government has to please the companies who give the highest donations.
  In my opinion manners are less important than the survival of our children and grandchildren.
  Speak up when you see Nature-destroyers, inform and educate your children and friends.
  This is the only way, courage and responsibility, not modern words, but important for the next generation!On Umbra on talking about environmentalism without being preachy posted 4 years, 8 months ago 8 Responses

  warmer weather

  I do not agree with Umbra's opinion.
  All Americans will suffer from global warming in the next decades.
  Our lives will change:
  Imagine: Florida under water, part of Louisiana under water, parts of California under water, Chicago under water ...
  Imagine: 10 hurricans with a 4 or 5 strength a year
  Imagine: Price per barrel Oil 100 Dollar, because we burn more and more oil.
  Imagine: The prices for food will raise, because more violent weather destroys the harvest worldwide. How do we
  pay for the transport of the food to our super markets?
  Imagine: The gulf stream would weaken and big parts of
  Europe will have 6 month winter.
  No food production there anymore and a lot of heating oil use
  Imagine: 1 and a half Billion people have to leave their homes because of raising sea levels and violent storms, where will they go? Many of them will knock on the door of the US. Will we welcome them?
  I could give you 20 more scenarios, what will happen when
  global warming continues.
  How can someone think America as the biggest polluter is
  an island and will not suffer too? On Umbra on how climate change will affect us posted 4 years, 9 months ago 9 Responses
