UPDATE: 11/20/09

(evidence of the whole global warming scam!!!)

This story broke on FoxNews this morning:
(certainly no other media outlet will air it)

Watch Al Gore silence environmental journalist Phelim McAleer and have him removed from the conference after McAleer asks a question that contradicts Gore’s brainwashing!

“Society of Environmental Journalists Annual Conference”

Al Gore wants to shut down factories, destroy American jobs and end development in third world countries (which would kill millions). Gore says the time for debate is over!

Well it seems Gore has indeed decided to shutdown all debate and decent concerning the Global Warming religion! Man Made Global Warming is a complete LIE, being preached to us and school children in pursuit of raising American’s taxes and destroying America’s global competitiveness.

Point to consider: They say they love trees and plants (more than they love people it would seem) but they work to lower the level of Co2…which plants and trees breath! Does that make sense to you? Not very “Green” of them is it?

Get educated!! Resist Gore and the brainwashing lies of the man-made Global Warming lunatics!

Introduction and overview of the Brownfield Action interactive simulation.

Brownfield Action is a central component of Professor Peter Bower’s Introduction to Environmental Science Course at Barnard College. In this simulation, students are presented with maps, documents, videos, and an extensive network of scientific data to investigate a suspected contaminated land site. They assume the roles of environmental consulting firms contracting with a real estate developer to study the condition of the site and report on the feasibility of commercial construction. First developed in 1999, BA has been nationally recognized by the Association of American Colleges and Universities and was featured as a model curriculum at the Association’s SENCER Institute (Science Education for New Civic Engagements and Responsibilities). Development of the latest evolution of the simulation is supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation, with the broader goal of disseminating the project to other colleges and universities.
