Malema to miss hearing verdict
Environmental Toxicity and the Effect on Health
Did you see that ONE has launched a short film with the help of Bono, Colin Farrell, George Clooney, K’naan, Annie Lennox and many other famous faces called “The F Word – Famine is the real obscenity” in support of our campaign calling on world leaders to help save millions of lives?
The film is being shown on televisions in France, the US and elsewhere, but the UK authorities BANNED it. We think that’s absurd given the overwhelming response - so far over 200,000 people have signed our petition in just one week, generating huge momentum.
But every voice counts and we need yours. If you haven’t done so already, please join us. An email from Bono is below and you can click here to automatically sign our petition and see the film:

These productions come upfront the 'real thing' - strange isn't it? Or are this interpolations of certain trends?

This also means a warming Arctic which could hinder heat transfer from the Equator, further interfering with the ocean conveyor....precursor to an Ice Age ?
Would market manipulation and economic warfare find a better friend than some cockamamie scam that runaway warming threatened our planet and that we'd better put an energy surcharge on fossil fuels to curtail use ?
The deepwater drilling oil boom is only happening because Bush/Cheney removed oil reserve depletion taxes on deepwater drilling - which is still past established practice parameters. Cheney was notorious for messing up the environment.
GW Bush played at 'brushing' when vacationing at his ranch while President. In both Texas and Australia homeowners have suffered disastrous loss from wildfires because the state interfered with peoples' ability to 'clear brush' through environmental protection / carbon sink fines and outright prohibition.
Meanwhile George has moved to a vast place in Peru with very interesting underground water reservoirs. Libya - which NATO just invaded - has such tapped and accessible....a prize to Israel ?( Now you know I can 'conspiracy theory' with the best : suggesting Bush setting up in Peru - where loyalists from South Vietnam were relocated ! - at a place where the aquifer is unique....is related to planning ahead to maximize power, establish refuge, etc. while the world...especially the Northern Hemisphere...freezes in the North and is poisoned in the Gulf and threatened by dispersal of Depleted Uranium on the wind.All while playing the Energy Market with the Koyoto Protocol in a time of need and shortage both.If that doesn't sound like a vision to compete with Dune.... and indicate deliberate cause using secret knowledge accessible through loyal service from government scientists in various countries....then my imagination may be too limited ! )

Subject: Obscene
I’ve been known to drop the occasional expletive, but the most offensive F word to me is not the one that goes f***. It’s F***** - the famine happening in the Horn of Africa, mainly Somalia.
I hope you’ll take a few minutes to watch ONE’s new video “The F Word: Famine is the Real Obscenity” and in doing so sign the petition....
http://act.one.org/go/133?akid=2663.1817610.jJ8nE-&t=5
Dear world leaders,
The famine in Somalia could kill 750,000 in the coming months, and tens of thousands have already died. When you meet at the Group of 20 (G-20) Summit in November, you have the opportunity to break the cycle of famine and ensure people are hungry no more. Lives are in your hands. Please keep the promises you have made to the 2 billion poor people who depend on farming for their livelihoods.
The reasons for the famine in the Horn of Africa are complex and solutions are difficult, especially in Somalia, but we can’t lose sight of some simple facts:
1. 30,000 children have died in just 3 months. Thirty thousand. With over 12 million people at risk.
2. Famine is not a natural catastrophe – drought doesn’t have to lead to famine. It can be prevented, as we have seen in much of Kenya and Ethiopia.
In the 21st century, it’s an obscenity that people are dying because they can’t get enough food to eat. Every one of those 30,000 children is part of a family – a son, a daughter, sister or brother. We can’t imagine what it must be like to starve to death, but most of us know what it’s like to lose someone we love.
Please watch the film and make use of the voice you have -- sign the petition. It will make a difference in putting pressure on world leaders to do more to help those in need right now, and live up to promises already made to invest in the things proven to work – early warning systems...irrigation...drought resistant seeds… and of course, peace and security.
Thanks for reading.
Bono
