One voice on behalf of our planet,
excerpts...
The Amazon
Rainforest and tropical forests of Africa and South Asia which are the
lungs of the entire world are dying on our eyes, due to the ruthless
activities of the human beings, deforestation mainly. It is time now for
all the countries to create a chapter proclaiming the forests so vital
for the world that they must be protected as an absolute nessessity.
In this order mechanisms have to be created which will enable the poor
nations where the rainforests are based and their inhabitants to stay away
from exploiting and deforestation of the forests.
In this order too, the governments of the world should establish funds
and rainforests' tax within their countries which would be supplied to the
people of the countries where the forests are based, under a condition
that the exploitation and deforestation stops. This should be an effort
of every single country, under an umbrella of the United Nations. And it
should be an effort many times more generous than the Marschal Plan. Our
survival depends on it. Time is Now !
This is, naturally, one of the many efforts which the humanity must
undertake, in order to stop the global warming. The European Union is
best equipped to lead and should be joined by the United States, Russia,
China, India, Brazil and all other countries, in a network far beyond
Kyoto. Time is Now, indeed !

Who you think is the “greener” candidate: Clinton or Obama or McCain? The Republican candidates simply “smell” of “influence peddlers, the polluters… the Big Oil and the special interests”, as John Kerry once said. They represent big companies and special interests and thus give no damn about the climate threat. Hillary Clinton might be forthcoming to the issue because Al Gore, the great climate campaigner, was once the vice-president under the presidency of her husband, Bill Clinton. I, however, keep my fingers crossed for…Barack Obama, believing that he might do a real change on behalf of climate if chosen a president, signing the Kyoto, cooperating with Al Gore, putting solar panels on every American household, turning industry and business green...- Excerpt from the thoughts of Thaddeus Hutyra, www.funworld.be
Time to go...green! It's opportunity also for the US industry because going green will mean producing thousand and one things which are necessary to keep climate in a good health: solar panels for every American house, environmentally friendly equipment, different sources of energy and so on. producing all these things can bring USA collossal amounts of money. Europe has already begun...- Excerpt from the thoughts of Thaddeus Hutyra, www.funworld.be
It is important to create a new kind of mentality in the people minds and the business circles, with understanding that going green does not mean loosing money or anything what's bad. Industry can make collossal money while participating in the global struggle against the climate change, for example by producing technologies enabling usage of see water or rain water. three fourth of our planet is covered by the oceans. Why not to create see water technologies on using the oceans'water? Time to begin now...- Excerpt from the thoughts of Thaddeus Hutyra, www.funworld.be

Thoughts by Thaddeus Hutyra,Funworld
Each day, 820 million people in the developing world do not have enough
food to eat1. Food prices around the world are shooting up, sparking
food riots from Mexico to Morocco. And the World Food Program warned last week
that rapidly rising costs are endangering emergency food supplies for the
world's worst-off.
How are the wealthiest countries responding? They're burning food.
Specifically, they're using more and more biofuels--alcohol made from plant
products, used in place of petrol to fuel cars. Biofuels are billed as a way to
slow down climate change. But in reality, because so much land is being cleared
to grow them, most biofuels today are causing more global warming emissions than
they prevent, even as they push the price of corn, wheat, and other foods out of
reach for millions of people.
Not all biofuels are bad--but without tough global standards, the biofuels boom
will further undermine food security and worsen global warming.Sometimes the
trade-off is stark: filling the tank of an SUV with ethanol requires enough corn
to feed a person for a year7. But not all biofuels are bad; making
ethanol from Brazilian sugar cane is vastly more efficient than US-grown corn,
for example, and green technology for making fuel from waste is improving
rapidly.
The problem is that the EU and the US have set targets for increasing the use of
biofuels without sorting the good from the bad. As a result, rainforests are
being cleared in Indonesia to grow palm oil for European biodiesel refineries,
and global grain reserves are running dangerously low. Meanwhile, rich-country
politicians can look "green" without asking their citizens to conserve
energy, and agribusiness giants are cashing in. And if nothing changes, the
situation will only get worse.
What's needed are strong global standards that encourage better biofuels and
shut down the trade in bad ones. Such standards are under development by a
number of coalitions, but they will only become mandatory if there's a big
enough public outcry.As Kate, an Avaaz member in Colorado, wrote about biofuels,
"Turning food into oil when people are already starving? My car isn't more
important than someone's hungry child."
It's time to put the life of our fellow people, and our planet, above the
politics and profits that too often drive international decision-making. This
will be a long fight. But it's one that we join eagerly--because the stakes are
too high to do anything else

- America nowadays is a superpower which is hungry for money and power on the
international scene. Such ideas as freedom and democracy are only pretext to
achieving extreme goals by the US leaders, supported by the oil and big business
establishment. Time is for change: freedom and democracy must regain
priorities in USA's goals. Thoughts by Thaddeus Hutyra.

A letter from president Barack Obama (sent to thaddeus Hutyra,
from info@barackobama.com , on june
6th, 2010):
Thaddeus --
Yesterday, I visited Caminada Bay in Grand Isle, Louisiana -- one of the first
places to feel the devastation wrought by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
While I was here, at Camerdelle's Live Bait shop, I met with a group of local
residents and small business owners.
Folks like Floyd Lasseigne, a fourth-generation oyster fisherman. This is the
time of year when he ordinarily earns a lot of his income. But his oyster bed
has likely been destroyed by the spill.
Terry Vegas had a similar story. He quit the 8th grade to become a shrimper with
his grandfather. Ever since, he's earned his living during shrimping season --
working long, grueling days so that he could earn enough money to support
himself year-round. But today, the waters where he has worked are closed. And
every day, as the spill worsens, he loses hope that he will be able to return to
the life he built.
Here, this spill has not just damaged livelihoods. It has upended whole
communities. And the fury people feel is not just about the money they have
lost. It is about the wrenching recognition that this time their lives may never
be the same.
These people work hard. They meet their responsibilities. But now because of a
manmade catastrophe -- one that is not their fault and beyond their control --
their lives have been thrown into turmoil. It is brutally unfair. And what I
told these men and women is that I will stand with the people of the Gulf Coast
until they are again made whole.
That is why, from the beginning, we have worked to deploy every tool at our
disposal to respond to this crisis. Today, there are more than 20,000 people
working around the clock to contain and clean up this spill. I have authorized
17,500 National Guard troops to participate in the response. More than 1,900
vessels are aiding in the containment and cleanup effort. We have convened
hundreds of top scientists and engineers from around the world. This is the
largest response to an environmental disaster of this kind in the history of our
country.
We have also ordered BP to pay economic injury claims, and this week, the
federal government sent BP a preliminary bill for $69 million to pay back
American taxpayers for some of the costs of the response so far. In addition,
after an emergency safety review, we are putting in place aggressive new
operating standards for offshore drilling. And I have appointed a bipartisan
commission to look into the causes of this spill. If laws are inadequate, they
will be changed. If oversight was lacking, it will be strengthened. And if laws
were broken, those responsible will be brought to justice.
These are hard times in Louisiana and across the Gulf Coast, an area that has
already seen more than its fair share of troubles. The people of this region
have met this terrible catastrophe with seemingly boundless strength and
character in defense of their way of life. What we owe them is a commitment by
our nation to match the resilience they have shown. That is our mission. And it
is one we will fulfill.
Thank you,
President Barack Obama
