Wastewater from fracked wells, found to be 609 times more radioactive than the federal limit for drinking water and 300 times more radioactive than a Nuclear Regulatory Commission limit for industrial discharges to water, is being transported without safeguards and dumped in municipal landfills.

Scientists estimate we can only emit 565 more gigatons of carbon into the atmosphere to sustain a livable planet. Fossil fuel companies currently have enough coal, oil and gas reserves to emit 2795 more gigatons of carbon. That’s five times the livable amount. If we want to avoid disastrous consequences of climate change, we have to leave 80 percent of those reserves in the ground.

"Consider the largest foundation of them all: the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. As of December 2012, it had at least $958.6 million—nearly a billion dollars—invested in just two oil giants: ExxonMobil and BP. The hypocrisy is staggering: a top priority of the Gates Foundation has been supporting malaria research, a disease intimately linked to climate. Mosquitoes and malaria parasites can both thrive in warmer weather, and they are getting more and more of it. Does it really make sense to fight malaria while fueling one of the reasons it may be spreading more ferociously in some areas?"

Politeness is the dodo bird of our times. No one is quite sure what killed off civility but it’s obvious that two-year-olds aren’t growing out of tantrums or a sense of entitlement. Instead they just get bigger, becoming toddler adults.

When the shoe fits
The foot is forgotten,
When the belt fits
The belly is forgotten,
When the heart is right
"For" and "against" are forgotten.

As humans, it is in our nature to constantly pursue exploration and discovery of the unknown.
Once a mystery to us, the beauty and scale of our Cosmos has been uncovered due to incredible advances in technology. From the development of early Galilean telescopes to the current generation of orbital space telescopes, we as humans have always allowed our ingenuity and curiosity to propel us to new levels of understanding.
Our first sights of nearby cosmic objects were seen through polished glass lenses, using rudimentary optics to produce low-quality images. As we advanced, so did our ability to observe. Astronomers began to piece together our location in relation to the planetary bodies discovered by those who came before. As our view became clearer, theories regarding our place and purpose in the universe arose, often creating new questions waiting to be answered.

Here's how you may be approached for an easement on your land by oil & gas for a pipeline. Remember, this pipeline is being built to EXPORT fuel and will not bring you regular income, lower your gas prices, or do anything but endanger health and safety. PLEASE SHARE

This documentary examines the flaws in our systems, and the mechanisms that work against democracy and the environment. From conflicts of interests in politics and unregulated corporate power, to a news media that serves the interests of powerful elites; ETHOS explores the systems that lead us into over consumption and warfare. Too often the media celebrates aspects of our society that belong in the dark ages, while at the same time ignoring or ridiculing progressive thinking or ideas. Many aspects of the way our systems work almost guarantee our destruction as a society and that's what this film is about. Fractured societies, poverty, disparity, pollution, warfare. There's an answer.

The Big Ballet Company is a performing troupe in Russia of larger women. “It should be remembered that the returning dancers continue to retain their weight despite vigorous fitness training and rehearsal sessions, as well as highly demanding tour schedules, suggesting that certain dancers’ genetics influence their size. The longer-standing members of the troupe have always maintained they eat as healthily as the average-sized person.” Dion Clements for The Big Ballet. http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/the%20big%20ballet

A photo collection of exotic dancers from 1890 show a body ideal that is, in today's terms, fat. Apparently this ideal changed by 1910 for a variety of cultural reasons. http://thesocietypages.org/socimages/2012/03/07/exotic-dancers-in-1890-and-the-plump-body-ideal/
