- Organic Gardening Container - A Primer
Organic container gardening is not really a very difficult task, but obeying mother natures laws when you grow your own herb plants, house plants or flower bulbs is really very simple. It's possible to use just about anything that can hold soil or water as a gardening container. If you are into composting or even better have your own composter you should have no problems with creating a great soil where all your plants will flourish. Perhaps your herb and flower seeds are of great quality the soil is perfect but if insects, or snails get a hold of your carefully grown flower box garden you have a problem. - 2 months ago
Bio-Fuels are Depleting the Worlds Food Reserves
Bio-Fuels produced from crop like Rice, Wheat, Corn or oil rich vegetables like Soy are becoming a moral problem, says International Monetary FundChairman, Dominique Straus Kahn.
According to Straus-Kahn these type of fuels are one of the greatest contributors to the rising food prices and the now occurring food shortages. This presents us with a moral dilemma says Straus-Kahn. Our need for ";Green Energy";, is the cause of famine and starvation in other parts of the world.
Bio-Fuel as Potential Time Bomb
It is a potential time bomb that adds to the growing tension in the world and can act as a Major Threat to World Peace. Terrorists are more likely to find place hide.
The Worst is Yet to Come
The production of Bio-Fuels is a problem that puts the lively hood of hundreds of millions of people at risk.
Uprisings resulting from famine can destabilize governments and cause the collapse of democratic elected governments. The question if those governments are in any way to blame for the situation is not relevant during an uprising of their starving population.
Wars
With this destabilization of democracies, the risk of war increases, and the terrorist threat to the Western World will increase therfore increase as well. Since this destabilized environment can grow into a safe haven for people with dubious motives. Anarchy or dictatorships are historically a bad sign to integrity of government.
French president Nicolas Sarkozy announced at the Paris Climate Conference to double French food aid in order to lessen the present crisis. But agreed that compared to the problem at hand this is like a tiny drop of water in the ocean.
Bio-Fuels are a Hazard to Food production
Raw Food commodities like Cocoa, some Fruits, Rice, Grains have been low priced export items of many 3th World countries. The process of turning food into fuel is simple and doubles the quadruples the value of it. As a result more and more producers turn to the production of methanol, ethanol or bio diesel rather than food.
The news confirms our strong believe that the Bio-Fuels are NOT the solution to our problems.They are the choice between a bag of crisps and a cup of fuel. With the amount of energy required to feed our hunger for power there is only one way to turn.
That way is the sun. The only inexhaustible source powerful enough to give us a life of abundance and prosperity. A prosperity that is not build on the foundation of starving less fortunate souls on the planet.

- The Water Powered Jumbo Jet?
Yes you did read this correctly, a water powered 747, not in an eBook but there is actual research going to accomplish this. While we are still trying to find reason or hoax in the water4fuel fraction on the internet, it must be said that the basic idea of using Hydrogen and Oxygen to propel a combustion engine is possible. We must try not to get blinded by the irritation about some ideas
