In an attempt to ‘stop global warming’, scientists have been experimenting with dumping several tons of iron into the Antarctic ocean in order to potentially fertilize the development of plankton. Despite raising a multitude of red flags raised from leading scientific organizations and health watch organizations, a new study is now calling for the practice to be even further extended as a worldwide ‘geoengineering’ strategy to alter the climate via dumping hundreds of tons of iron dust into the ocean. Previous research found that by dumping the heavy metal into oceans worldwide it could not only devastate the marine life population, but deplete oxygen levels and explode the growth of certain unwanted organisms. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/your-details/43075-geoengineering-fraud-dumping-iron-at-sea-capture-carbon-and-then-sell-carbon-credits-In an attempt to ‘stop global warming’, scientists have been experimenting... more

Building a family is to one of the most natural processes known to the human race, but with science playing an ever increasing role in reproduction - going further and further into explaining the mysteries behind Mother Nature - are we seeing an increase in the creation of predetermined babies? It’s only when you look beyond the surface of what seems an innocent opportunity for hopeful parents, that ideas reminiscent of Huxley’s Brave New World and the eugenics plan of the Nazi breeding programmes of the 1930’s come to light. So at what cost does the bid to create ‘the perfect child’ come? Taking into consideration women’s rights and the family unit, Designer Babies may not provide you with the ultimate answer, but will leave you with new viewpoints and lots to consider. Is this a successful advance for science, or a step to far? Filmed in the USA, India and Denmark, this documentary explores the new techniques making what was once science-fiction a reality.

More tries arent necessarily better when it comes to in vitro fertilization. New research found that about 1 in 3 women had a baby the first time they tried a test tube embryo, and that improved to nearly 1 in 2 with a second try. http://www.indiareport.com/India-usa-uk-news/ap/Health/36543More tries arent necessarily better when it comes to in vitro fertilization.

BUENOS AIRES, April 19 (Reuters) - A thick cloud of smoke covered Buenos Aires for a fifth day on Saturday, the fallout of field burning that has forced the closure of highways, flight delays and traffic congestion.
The smoke started to appear over the Argentine capital more than a week ago, but visibility deteriorated considerably in the city on Friday and Saturday, with an acrid smell pervading homes and causing watery eyes and sore throats among city residents.
Visibility downtown was barely 500 yards (metres).
Emergency services marshaled traffic in some areas of the city, while the capital's domestic airport Jorge Newbery diverted incoming aircraft to the international airport outside Buenos Aires -- where the smoke also caused some flight departure delays.
The dense smoke along highways in rural areas north of Buenos Aires caused traffic accidents that killed at least nine people, officials said on Friday.
Health officials sought to reassure the public that the smoke was not toxic, saying the material burnt was organic. However the municipality of Buenos Aires issued a "yellow alert" as a precaution.BUENOS AIRES, April 19 (Reuters) - A thick cloud of smoke covered Buenos Aires for a... more
