Environmental Advisor George Fabus Warns World About Pollution/Global Warming

Decisive Action

Speaking via the White Peoples Radio and Television Network, rebroadcast to most of the world via international media corporations, Environmental Advisor George Fabus had the following to say.


"We in Mississippi have recently come to accept a truth that we long wished we'd never have to accept. Human beings are definitely involved in altering the climate patterns of our planet, in ways that will prove irreversible. And that these changes are occurring at far more rapid a rate than we had ever expected."


"In December of 1984, the first time environmental data was recorded for the Gulf of Mexico by Mississippi, the temperature was on average, 65 degrees throughout the entire month. Each month thereafter, up until 1995, it was on average between 63 and 66 degrees. Since 1995, the average temperature has shifted drastically, now being around 76 to 77.2 on average, with a standard deviation of 1 unit. This will hold great implications for Western Europe as we have also detected the temperatures in the Northern Atlantic are such that the water current flow between the North Pole and the middle Atlantic will be permanently and irreversibly altered, much to the detriment of the world."

Then the most disturbing, a 40 mile long by 20-mile wide chunk of ice that broke off from the ice caps. Then another such picture, another, another, the pictures of various ice caps continue)


"The projection is that if by 2010, nothing has been done, most of the Northern Hemisphere will have such massively altered climates, that living anywhere from, here, to here (He draws marks from Western North America, near Canada, over to Maine, down to Cuba, across to Mexico, then straight over across northern Africa and stopping at Japan, then going up into Russia and over to England) will be so difficult due to climate patterns destroying growing seasons, that billions if not more will either starve or move into the Southern Hemisphere, putting pressures on the governments of the nations in the Southern Hemisphere and possibly triggering massive wars for ever scarcer resources."



"As to the matter of the depletion of fossil fuels. If fossil fuels are not controlled and their use limited, our most optimistic experts believe that by 2014, we will have little if any oil left in the world."


"What can be done is this, placing control of finding new oil reserves under the authority of an international coalition, raising emissions standards, holding corporations accountable for their actions, not accepting that business comes at the expense of anything else. Demanding that big business be held responsible for the consequences of their production. Perhaps even nationalization of key industry, or internationalization of industry. But we must act fast and start at the grass roots level to raise awareness to the massive environmental problems facing the world today."


"Good night, and God Bless."
