"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the
People tolerate the growth of private” (privatizing, deregulating, cost/risk-shifting) “power to a
point where it becomes stronger than their democratic State itself. That, in
its essence, is Fascism— ownership of government by an individual” (privatized
forces such as global corporate CEOs that have become more powerful in terms of
human cash than governments of many nations) “…. by a group or by any
controlling private (privatizing) power" – FDR 1937
Pope Francis gets it.
We need our air and water and life cycles to keep us functional.
Our Kids get it.
So why don't some adult GOOPY Americans get it?
Are they stuck in gooey petroleum, black tar?
Tar babies.
Fricken fracken.
Cash-driven Big Oil Texan Energy Transfer Dakota
Access
Tarsands pipeline is not "necessary" or
"convenient"....but dirty and deadly instead for Iowa and US and our common, shared, inalienable future as a whole.
The evidence has become overwhelming as scientists warn that carbon emissions are causing historic, rapid changes on earth, our 6th extinction....our melting Arctic/Greenland/Antarctica ......rapidly rising seas threatening major cities global.....massive migrations from lands no longer able to produce enough to consume....mass die off of species stuck in extreme and dangerous environments....our own Antrhopocene that humans have caused.
But some refuse to get it.
The
Iowa Utilities Board failed to clear the legal hurdles that the cash-driven
Dakota Access LLC ramming a dirty tarsands pipeline through Iowa and America is
"necessary" and "convenient"...for Iowa and US. ...but the
Texan Energy Transfer Dakota Access scam rammed it through a so-called "approval"
anyway in April 2016.....even though it violates our covenant with earth and
life.
The IUB and DA have limited their counts to
mechanical rates of private cash of by for a fossilized industry....crushing
life in Iowa and our US.....of by for filling privatized bank accounts of by
for only 1% with dirty oil cash....at our expense.....crushing the ability of
nature to grow life on earth.
That is criminal....even though a cash-driven 1%
still conspire to rewrite human books of human history, human science, human
law to sell the immoral of by for privatized cash profiteering to fill private
bank accounts now of by for only 1%....at our expense.
IUB: Protect life and land of Iowa and
US...protect more than private bank accounts of a fossil fuel industry of by
for only 1%:
Count more than cash. Value the invaluable
also to balance our budget
I spoke before the Iowa Utilities Board at the
so-called "public hearing" in November 2015 to speak out to block the
cash-driven Texan Energy Transfer tarsands invasion of Iowa, the Dakota Access
dirty tarsands invasion through Iowa and other states that would cause
"game over" in our war against Climate Armageddon, Climate 911
(McKibben, Rolling Stone 20xx).
The IUB failed to clear the legal hurdles that the
dirty tarsands pipeline is "necessary" and
"convenient"...for Iowa......and US:
I told them that...
The dirty tarsands invasion through Iowa and US was
not "necessary" or "convenient" because ....
1) Solar energy could power all energy needs on
earth x 11,000 (ETOM 2016)....so why are we wasting our public resources on a
tarsands pipeline that is causing Climate 911?
2) Wind energy also could power all energy needs on
earth .......and all energy needs in the US x 10 (AWEA 2015).....so why are we
wasting our public resources on a deadly tarsands pipeline that is causing
Climate 911?
3) Water and waves could also power all energy
needs on earth numerous times (Inhabitant 2015).....so why are we wasting our
precious public resources on a deadly tarsands pipeline that is causing Climate
911?
4) 100% Renewable Energy is 100% doable by 2050
(100.org 2016)....80% to 100% Renewable Energy is 80% to 100% possible by 2030
or before (IRENA 2015, 100.org 2015).....if the fossil fuel industry would help
us transition now....or get out of the way.
4) So why are the cash-driven IUB and Dakota Access
LLC pushing a deadly tarsands pipeline through some of the best and productive
topsoil in the world....that we need to feed the world?
5) So why are the cash-driven IUB and Dakota Access
LLC pushing a dirty and deadly tarsands pipeline, refusing to wean Americans of
our costly deadly addictions to fossilized dead energy and urban sprawl?
6) So why are the cash-driven IUB and Dakota Access
LLC causing hell on earth?
7) So why are the cash-driven IUB and Dakota Access
LLS refusing to grow heaven on earth instead?
8) So why are the cash-driven IUB and Dakota Access
LLC crushing the ability of nature to grow and produce abundant riches to count
....plus to produce critical but uncountable flows, cycles, logic/genius of
nature/resilience/adaptability/flexibility for life to survive, synergy of
living organisms and community to grow positives enough for to lift humans up
to light.....instead of pushing us down into hell?
The earth looks flat to me also when I get
up....but I have the courage to reach beyond the cash-driven
obvious/immediate/privatizing/linear walls and barriers and glittery cashflow
floods that blind me.
The Iowa Utilites Board so-called
"Approval" in April 2016 Illegal
Dakota Access failed to prove that the tarsands
invasion is "necessary" and/or "convenient"....because all
the comments I heard at the November 2015 made claims that were distorted and
not true when analyzed in the context of climate change history:
Dakota Access "testimony" of so-called
"union members" claimed erroneously that the Dakota Access tarsands
pipeline through Iowa and US;
* so-called "union" persons most from out
of state with orange shirts posed as workers that needed jobs and flooded the
November 2015 "public hearing" ....but the counts of Iowans opposing
the pipeline was more...the orange shirts shipped in from out of state claiming
to be "union" workers.....even though Energy Transfer and Dakota
Access likely conspire to crush worker unions....
* claimed that a tar sands pipeline would be
"safer" than trucks or trains to haul tar sands....even though they
were only contrasting this pipeline to the explosive, deadly and
climate-disruption of "train bombs" and "truck bombs" on
our public lands......causing spectacular explosions killing many in the last
couple of years.....when they need to compare it as unacceptable risk instead
* claimed that the tar sands invasion would bring
"jobs" to communities....but failed to acknowledge that most of the
jobs would be to "clean up" the tarsands messes that will last for
years and are impossible to "clean-up" a euphemism probably invented
by ALEC of the GOP and fossil fuel industries to sell the immoral for private
profiteering for only 1%......focusing only one cashflow floods to Dakota
Access and underthetable kickbacks to Iowa "officials" who promise to
destroy any evidence that dirties DA reputation....limits their definition of
"economic" and "jobs" to only private, immediate,
short-sighted, obvious, temporary worker cash that overloads public
infrastructure such as schools, water systems, emergency services, roads
without paying their fair share, cracking after the circus leaves....
* fails to account for economic
"externalities" of 1) the destruction of some of the best and most
productive topsoil in the world that we need to feed the world, Iowa's economic
base being a leader in agriculture.....and replacing those values with
get-rich-quick-schemes of snake-oil salesmen that have sold Iowa a very deadly
and explosive bomb.....at our expense......2) the destruction of the integrity
of our rural, agricultural fabric that has held our Iowa communities intact for
generations....replacing it with a cash-driven, glittery, gooey get-rich-quick
scam that only sticks us in oil.....causing hell on earth.....after the IUB
refused the red-necked and cash-driven, cheap come-ons from the sleazy scum on
the corner....3) will wreck public health, safety, well-being of Iowans because
the fossil fuel industry has conspired to sell toxics to us for more than 35
years, more than 150 years, luring us into deadly totalitarian comfort and
convenience of by for only one private self at all costs....throwing the risks
and costs onto our own children's future, our own futures stupidly.........4)
will crush nature's ability to grow abundant riches to count + to
grow and produce critical but uncountable flows cycles logic synergy
productivity to keep our human cities alive day to day and minute to minute
* relies on 35 years, more than 150 years of bold,
deadly lies that block access for the many to critical public flows of
critical public information and critical public resources that America needs to
free America and our world from totalitarian lies and force crushing US
A cash-driven fossilized dirty energy industry has
limited our counts to mechanical rates of human cash that crush life on
earth....for more than 35 years, more than 150 years to cause our 6th
Extinction....our own Anthropocene.....denying scientific facts to protect
private cashflow floods for only 1%.
Have they forgotten what they're counting?
Has America limited it's counts to mechanical rates of cash of dead energy
fossilized energy industries of only 1%, deadly cashflow floods that crush life
on earth?
Fact: Every living cell wants to grow upwards
toward light to produce positives..
....but fossilized cashflow floods crush the
ability of nature to grow upwards toward light
Every living cell, seed, seedling, soil, self,
whole wants to reach up toward light of our sun to produce abundant riches to
count in human terms.....plus to produce critical but hidden, uncountable flows
cycles logic synergy productivity of productivity of positives to lift all up
to light...critical but uncountable flows and cycles of of light, air, O2,
water, H2O, topsoil, green to grow food and shelter to keep human cities alive
day to day and minute to minute...to lift U
S up.....a fragile but critical web for all life
lifting human civilization up out of the tar.
Fact: Ironically
Human cash counts life the least, the deadly the
most, crushing life
Ironically....our human cash system counts the most
critical, most hidden flows and cycles for life, light, air, O2, water, H2O,
topsoil, green, the least, inversely, ironically...and human cash counts the
least critical stones and forces the most, the most deadly the most, bloody
stones, dirty energy, dirty energy wars and lies.
Ironically, human cash counts the most critical and
hidden flow, O2 for animals the least, oxygen as fragile O2, O=O...even though
humans die within minutes without O2......
Ironically, human cash counts the next most
critical and hidden flow for life, water as H2O the next least, even though
humans die within days without H2O.....
Ironically, human cash counts the next most
critical and hidden flow for life, topsoil the next least....topsoil to grow
green absorbent watersheds to grow food ....even though humans die within
months without food......meaning that humans need nature to produce these
critical but uncountable, hidden flows, cycles, potentials for productivity to
survive.
A two-faced governor or IUB
Surprisingly, Republican Governor Branstad signed a
US Governor's Clean Energy Accord several weeks before the illegal IUB
"approval" to approve the dirtiest fuel on the planet to invade
Iowa.....a "Clean Energy Accord " for each state to commit to a
clean energy future of renewables such as solar and wind and energy
efficiency....the accord representing about 16 US governors and more than 40%
of the US population.....to slash operating costs, to slash public health
costs....to boost positive productivity and positive futures for states and our
nation....while boosting our economy....
But the IUB "approval" slapped Governor
Branstad in the face.
More than 35 years of dirty lies are killing US
Exxon and other fossil fuel industries....probably
even Energy Transfer and the Koch Brohers knew more than 35 years ago that
their carbon emissions into our shared climate would cause our climate to warm,
to heat to cause significant change in our world....that dirty carbon into a
clean climate of an ancient earth would interfere with the ability of life,
living cells to process critical flows enough to produce enough to consume and
to consume enough to produce enough to keep any economy alive day to day and
minute to minute.
But Exxon et al chose instead to block and obstruct
critical public flows of critical public information and critical public
resources to keep our democracy alive, to hold our fragile web for all life
intact.
Exxon et al chose instead to manufacture huge lies
of monstrous molecules to destroy their own children's futures, their own
nation's future, their own private futures stupidly.
Ironically
Even though Exxon CEOs and others that manufactured
Climate 911 that threatens the survival of life on earth will die soon, their
children and life on earth are not responsible for causing our 6th
extinction......Exxon et al ironically throwing the worst costs and
consequences onto the most innocent the most.
Is that legal?
Only in a criminal legal system that limits our
counts to mechanical rates of cash that crush life on earth.
Moral laws of reciprocity produce enough critical
flows for the many diverse to consume...so the many diverse can produce enough
to grow abundant riches to count, to share freely....and to produce enough
critical flows cycles logic/genius synergy productivity exponentially to grow
heaven on earth instead.
Why are we still rewarding those that choose to
cause hell on earth?
Help.
Exxon knew more than 35 years ago that their carbon emissions would cause Climate 911. Hold them accountable: They need to stop obstructing access to a more positive future....and instead help their own children to grow heaven on earth instead, to
* leave the dinosaurs in the ground now to stop causing hell on earth
* shift now to a 100% Renewable Energy by 2050, 80 to 100% RE by 2030 or before.....100% doable if Exxon et al help us transition or get out of the way
* count more than cash that crushes life on earth to stop causing hell on earth....to
* value the invaluable but uncountable potentials of all to grow heaven on earth instead
* harvest free, infinite supplies of RE to slash operating costs of any system....and to boost positive productivity exponentially of any system, cell or self or globe to free the self and many from want and fear
* green our cities and dying impermeable lands....to plant and protect green absorbent watersheds of native vegetation of deep roots to activate dying air cycles, to activate dying water cycles, to activate dying life cycles to grow heaven on earth instead
* stop blaming my god for hell humans cause
* open safe, affordable access to exponential productivity of open, aerobic systems of critical but uncountable flows cycles logic hidden genetic potentials/genius synergy of nature to reach freely up to light off our sun enough to produce positives enough to fill in hungry voids of the negative, to grow heaven on earth instead to lift all up to light
* balance nature's budget of produccting critical but uncountable flows cycles logic synergy productivity of light air water topsoil green food shelter laughter to grow heaven, enough to consume to free the many from want and fear.........to balance human budgets of consumptive, limiting, negative private immediate obvious consumption of by for only one private self of only 1%....to stop causing hell on earth
Thanks.
