Global Warming Siren

The Kenyan government has appropriated $6.6 million to supply solar panels to rural regions that to this day still do not have electricity.

The pilot project, costing $3.6 million will allow remote communities to enjoy more modern medical care, better education tools, and entertainment.

Kenya has long been a consumer of solar powered lamps, flashlights, and even hot water heaters. The government has set a goal to be 100% dependent on renewable energy by 2012.

I think it’s somewhat awesome that pre-industrial revolution countries can leap frog past the pollution straight into renewable power. Now if we could just break our bad habit.

Australians have just suffered through the hottest decade ever recorded and there is no break in site for the new year. The average temperature was half a degree Celsius above the average temperature over the past 50 years. Climate experts expect temperatures to be a fool 1° above average over the next year.

Australia is one of the hottest places on the planet. Any effects brought on by climate change will be amplified in this region. Brush fires, droughts, and dust storms already plagued many parts of the country.

2009 was the second hottest year ever recorded almost topping the record heat of 2005. Global warming activists blame Australia’s use of coal and other cheap fuels for partially fueling the never ending he waves. Australia is one of the worst per capita emitters of greenhouse gases on earth.

The Obama Deception by Alex Jones, shown in full length below, is a documentary film about America’s hidden super powers and their influence on politics and monetary policy.

Whether you buy into the ideas in the film or not, it’s good to be aware of the film because it’s getting so much attention online. People are forming new opinions and conservatives are finding new ways to leverage the internet. I think at least it’s interesting from a neutral spectator point of view.
