Letter to the Editor:
Time to change New Mexico's flag color from yellow/red to turquoise/yellow.
Turquoise is new mexico's true color. Its also time to REMOVE the black ISIS POW/MIA skull and crossbones flags from ALL of New
Mexico's state buildings and replace them with either a UN flag or, better yet, an EARTH FLAG. The US military and their
incessant warmongering have no place in this country anymore. War is obsolete. We live in ONE WORLD now. Let's start promoting
our unity and solidarity. There are no borders when one looks down upon our planet from space.

Fukushima Update: 50,000 trillion Becquerel’s of radiation leaked: 300 tons of radioactive water leaking daily into the Pacific no known technologie to fix it
Fukushima Update: 50,000 trillion Becquerel’s of radiation leaked: 300 tons of radioactive water leaking daily into the Pacific no known technologie to fix it

The China syndrome refers to a scenario in which a molten nuclear reactor core could fission its way through its containment vessel, melt through the basement of the power plant and down into the earth. While a molten reactor core wouldn’t burn “all the way through to China” it could enter the soil and water table and cause huge contamination in the crops and drinking water around the power plant. It’s a nightmare scenario, the stuff of movies. And it is happening at Fukushima and there is no technology known to man to stop it continuing.
TEPCO, Tokyo Electric Power Company however is trying to play down the full impact of this nuclear accident.
According to scientist Micho Kaku there is a mathematical formula which can determine at what level the accident really is.
Apparently the stricken nuclear plant has already released 50,000 trillion Becquerel’s of radiation which would put Fukushima in as a category 7 nuclear accident which is still less than Chernobyl however The Fukushima plant is still continuing to leak radiation from its reactors and TEPCO have claimed the problem could take another 40 years to fix, and to top that statistic the whole situation is less than stable.
Fukushima is basically a ticking time bomb.
The slightest disturbance i.e. a small earthquake and there are many as the stricken plant sits on a fault line causing a pipe to burst and an evacuation of the crew could set off a full scale melt down at all 3 nuclear power stations taking the catastrophe far and beyond what happened at Chernobyl.
To make matters worse TEPCO in a moment of panic pumped in sea water from the Pacific in a desperate attempt to keep water above the melting core but as we well know sea water contains salt which corroded any remaining working pumps at the site.
They resorted to sending in suicide squads into the crippled plant to hose water onto the melting reactor.
And the situation has now worsened.
This accident has released enormous amount of iodine into the atmosphere, Iodine is soluble, and when it rains it soaks into the soils and of course into the food system.
Farmers there are now dumping milk and crops and the local economy has collapsed.
It's been over half a decade since Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station suffered a catastrophic meltdown which topped the International Nuclear Event Scale due to its severity. Radiation loves to hang around, and researchers conducting operations with robots inside the damaged reactors were met with radiation levels at their highest point since the actual meltdown back in 2011.
In fact, the radiation level is so elevated that the robot operators had to quickly recall one of their robotic probes because it began to literally go blind.
Like sending a rover to another planet, the mission for robot operators from the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) is to monitor the status of the failed reactors and the nuclear materials housed within.
Unfortunately, the radiation level of the reactor units was high enough to actually begin to damage one of the robots' camera systems, and could have completely blinded the view for the operator and left the bot stranded in the radioactive hellscape. (In layman's terms what they are saying here is no technology has yet been invented to fix the problem, humans or robots cannot get anywhere near the rector long enough to fix the problem so TEPO's claim it will take another 40 years to fix the problem is probably a very conservative guess)
However, TEPCO was able to study some of the readings taken by the robots before things went awry.
The scientists have estimated the level of radiation to be anywhere from 530 Sieverts per hour to 650 Sieverts per hour.
Those numbers are representative of the amount of radiation an object would expect to be bombarded with over a specific period of time.
To add a bit of scope to that, it's estimated that just one Sievert will cause fatal cancer in approximately 5% of people, while a dose of five Sieverts will kill 50% of people exposed to it within a month.
As little as 90 millisieverts (0.09 Sieverts) accumulated over time can increase cancer risk in both adults and children. (With 300 tons of this stuff washing into the Pacific every day how long will it take before it kills the Pacific Ocean, it is a big ocean but not that big)
Later this month TEPCO plans to send yet another probe into the reactor to take additional readings and hopefully paint a clearer picture of just what exactly is going on inside.
Tipping point breached! Monarch butterfly has a 95% decline since 1980's in North America: Two-thirds of ALL animals and insects extinct in 2 years

Tipping point breached! Monarch butterfly has a 95% decline since 1980's in North America: Two-thirds of ALL animals and insects extinct in 2 years
According to researchers from WWF and the Zoological Society of London in just two years’ time, the World will have lost two-thirds of all wild animals and insects.
This amazing statistic from The Living Planet Index goes on: The number of wild animals living on Earth is set to fall by two-thirds by 2020, according to a new report, part of a mass extinction that is destroying the natural world upon which humanity depends.
The latest species under stress is the wonderful North American monarch butterfly.
A new report by The Xerces Society claim the number of monarchs wintering in California has dropped to a five-year low, despite more volunteers counting more sites in search of the orange-and-black insect that is arguably the most admired of North American butterflies, a report said on Friday.
The latest tally of 200,000 monarchs in forested groves in California’s central coast has dropped from the 1.2 million counted two decades ago, indicating the number of butterflies found west of the Rocky Mountains, or the so-called western population, continues to sharply decline, the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation said in a report.
Thanks to the efforts of many, this year’s WMTC tallied a total of 192,629 monarchs.
This is the lowest number counted since 2012, despite volunteers visiting nearly twice as many sites as they did that year.
The total represents less than one-sixth of the 1.2 million monarchs recorded in 1997, the first year of the WMTC, and is part of a long-term downward trend in the population of monarchs overwintering in California.
A study led by Cheryl Schultz, of Washington State University Vancouver, analyzed WMTC data and comparable historical data and demonstrated a dramatic population decline of over 95% the since the 1980s.
This is similar to the decline of over 80% seen in the monarch population that overwinters in central Mexico since the 1990s.
Earth has crossed its own tipping point and is creaking under the strain: Two-thirds of animals extinct by 2020! Climate changed forever! World population to hit 8 billion and accelerating
Planet has crossed the tipping point
Our planet is creaking under the strain
By 2020 two thirds of all wild animals who once lived on the world will be dead.
The world's primates face an "extinction crisis" with 60% of species now threatened with extinction
Unprecedented death of millions of tons of marine life around the world’s oceans and waterways
NOAA and NASA claimed 2016 marked three consecutive years of record warmth for the globe with the first eight months of 2016 unprecedented warmth!
10 of the 11 warmest years ever recorded coming in the last 16 years
Not climate change but climate "changed"
North Pole warmer than the Mediterranean in winter
World population soon to hit 8 billion and accelerating
Wars and rumours of wars
In just two years’ time, the World will have lost two-thirds of all wild animals.
This amazing statistic from The Living Planet Index goes on: The number of wild animals living on Earth is set to fall by two-thirds by 2020, according to a new report, part of a mass extinction that is destroying the natural world upon which humanity depends.
The analysis, the most comprehensive to date, indicates that animal populations plummeted by 58% between 1970 and 2012, with losses on track to reach 67% by 2020. Researchers from WWF and the Zoological Society of London compiled the report from scientific data and found that the destruction of wild habitats, hunting and pollution were to blame.
In another report released by journal Science, Advances are claiming the world's primates face an "extinction crisis" with 60% of species now threatened with extinction, according to research.
A global study, involving more than 30 scientists, assessed the conservation status of more than 500 individual species. This also revealed that 75% of species have populations that are declining.
Add to this the unprecedented death of millions of tons of marine life around the world’s oceans and waterways all point to a crisis which has crossed the tipping point.
Just yesterday NOAA along with NASA claimed 2016 marked three consecutive years of record warmth for the globe with the first eight months of 2016 unprecedented warmth!
With 10 of the 11 warmest years ever recorded coming in the last 16 years, it is fair to claim climate change is climate changed it will never recover.
The Sun hasn't risen over its horizon for more than two months yet the North Pole was warmer than South of France, Italy, Greece Turkey and Syria this week and not for the first time either this winter!
The world is creaking under the stress; crops are failing all over the world due to extreme weather, and with 7.5 billion people we can’t possibly feed everyone, even though the West probably throw’s away enough food to feed the poorest.
Graph worldometers
During the 20th century alone, the population in the world has grown from 1.65 billion to 6 billion.
In 1970, there were roughly half as many people in the world as there are now. We will hit 8 billion people within the next 8 years.
