Green Education Network is persuaded by the work of Dave Blume and the non-profit I.I.E.A. that ethanol produced by sustainable perma-culture has the potential to have a greater and more favorable environmental and economic impact than ANY alternative-energy technology at hand or on the immediate horizon.

Walmart’s ruse does next to nothing to reverse our course to catastrophe! GEN condemns EDF’s shamefully-distorting praise of it, and the elitist lifestyle EDF’s self-serving executives are living in consequence of such outrageous behavior!
URGENT: Whaling, Dolphin Slaughter, Carbon Credits, Boycott Corporate Greed. Green Education Network CEO Gregory Hilbert posts 4 appeals in one article as environmentalists fight onslaught of unsustainability at every turn
Sustainability? There is none! I’m as mad as hell, the only thing we’re sustaining is the wealth of the greedy corporate elite, and I’m not going to trust government or anyone else but THE PEOPLE to do something about it! — Green Education Network CEO Gregory Hilbert
Taxpayers pay billions in USPS junk mail subsidies to the same banks and other corporations that plunder us, billions to haul their unwanted junk away, and billions for the landfills where most of it gets dumped. The same greed-driven megabanks that taxpayers bailed out in 2009 pay only 19 cents to bombard Americans with low-interest CREDIT CARD offers that later sky-rocket to rates of 22% and higher, while citizens pay $0.44 to mail their payment to the same bank.
“If conservative Tea Party Republicans sweep the U.S. fall elections, the conquest of America by corporate greed will be complete. By mid-century the world will be purged of billions of human beings our planet will no longer have the resources to sustain.”

It’s not the water the townspeople banned, it’s the selling of it in plastic bottles. In the U.S., most nonbiodegradable plastic bottles are not recycled, despite the billions of them that are subject to deposit laws meant to incent their return so that they can be recycled.

Overpopulation is a condition where an organism’s numbers exceed the carrying capacity of its habitat. In common parlance, the term usually refers to the relationship between the human population and its environment, the Earth.[1]
