Lets hope and do to reduce. World conflict to have that feeling of liberty again.

The US government regulates cigarette package advertisements.
It’s a dog’s life but growing on that Ideum is that it is a “frog’s life” is. thankfully gaining traction. The environment’s status as an imperative has gained over time and experience and now has bellwethers in its observation. One of the most effective measures in its health is the presence and health of Frogs.
Large industrial projects such as dams, mines, and pipelines have EPP’s “environmental protection plans” as a condition of permitting.

These measures include visual surveys in ecological footprints as well as fences to capture and salvage amphibians to relocation plans. Species like the Columbia spotted frog are highly migratory and will travel far to water sources. The species has a status of ” population decreasing” and is prime for salvage when entering industrial areas.
A project like the trans mountain pipeline will have 60 EPP’s and if you see fencing it is likely it is for the benefit of a vulnerable creature, and ours as the environment keeps us all.
70 million people were active for the 4-year conflict that was the First World War. & million military and 9 Million civilian deaths as well as an incubation for a global flu epidemic that took 30 million in 1919. Truly an apocalypse, a lesson to be remembered.

Pipe for oil field File:Photo KDG Will they be the bad guy from Paris?
The Paris meetings have recently affirmed that there is will to change , what is different about this international meeting and others is this;usually the bureaucrats have already done the work for agreements or treaties and the elected are there to announce and confer as well as associate with others that have the confidence of the electorate. This time their is a 90 day time limit for conferring with officials after the fact. The cabinet must take their pledges to the ministries in there nations and come up with plans. Here is some of the alternate methods that BC hydro is adopting in response to the markets here already.
Electricity from independent producers must also be clean and renewable. Projects currently generating electricity for B.C. are found throughout the province, and include: ( BC Hydro)
Biomass: electricity is generated either by burning or by converting biomass to a fuel, which is then used to generate power
Run-of-river: the current of a river is used to generate electricity
Solar: energy from the sun’s rays are converted to electricity using photovoltaic cells
Municipal solid waste: combustion or gasification of waste to generate electricity
Waste heat: when heat is generated as a byproduct of other processes, it can be used to generate electricity
Merritt is in the middle of a green energy project now, how this relates to Paris is unknown however it is always desirable for incoming governments to privatize. ( or in this case create new business) . Hydro says they have 100 projects on the go with the above elements.
Editors note: We think the first method of international agreements is preferable to the Paris format. Less surprises over all. That said it was nice to see all those getting along so well in a troubled world. We hope it sticks.
