China's total Co2 output by 2030 will equal the current Co2 global output unless an international treaty that recognizes the challenges China and other developing countries face in balancing economic development with climate change is forged by 2009. This treaty must set limits on Co2 emissions that fall in line with their economic output with a definite timeframe for transition to these alternate energies. Climate change seeks to totally forever change the landscape of China, and their rapacious use of coal and oil seeks to forever change the landscape of this planet. That is something we must as an international community come together to address before it is too late. It is then imperative that the international community come together to see solar, wind, and other alternate energies become prevalent means of China's production usage in lieu of coal simply because it is abundant and cheap.That is also why the United Stated must lead the way in setting the example for the world in reductions of GHGs and setting a price on carbon. Once alternate energies like solar, geothermal, biofuels, etc. are made available to developing countries at an affordable price within the next five years, that will also spur job growth and economic development and oil and coal will most assuredly not look as attractive as it does now out of expedience.China's total Co2 output by 2030 will equal the current Co2 global output unless... more

The Turtle Island Project in northern Michigan was founded in August 2007 by two Midwest pastors who believe the future of mankind and world is at a crossroads.
Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard and Rev. Dr. George Cairns believe that Christians could learn a lot about nature and the environment by listening to Earth-based cultures like Native Americans, Celts, and other Indigenous peoples.
Rev. Hubbard is a Lutheran pastor, and Rev. Cairns is an ordained United Church of Christ minister.
Both have extensive backgrounds in interfaith and multicultural work.
The Turtle Island Project (TIP), based in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, promotes respect for the environment and Native Americans.
Two Midwest pastors created the TIP to foster a national discussion and debate on a wide variety of issues involving the future of the planet and mankind including encouraging Christians to learn how to appreciate nature like Earth-based religions such as American Indians, Celts and other Indigenous peoples.
Turtle Island Project volunteer media advisor Greg Peterson has more on the founders and their goals.

Please contact Congress and tell them to stop trying to push this down our throats in their effort to hold on to the status quo and maintain their campaign contributions while trying to make us believe they care about this planet. There is no such thing as clean coal and liquid coal is NOT a clean option. They would dare to include this in the Farm Bill and the Energy Bill yet they strip out tax incentives for alternate energy. There is something VERY wrong with the priorities and mindset of this Congress, and we must become much more vocal regarding the health of this planet, ourselves, and our children. Those who pick the gold bars over this planet are making a false choice. Liquid coal means double the global warming pollution...3 times the water usage...23% more mining...Coal kills.Please contact Congress and tell them to stop trying to push this down our throats in... more
