‘World cannot survive without a revolution’
A year ago to the date MSRB wrote [and Google censored—filtered, blocked, or buried:]
Not Just the US, world cannot survive without a revolution
Consider this:
1. About 92 percent of all economic activity goes toward maintaining a system that is destroying the very world our lives depend on.
2. Between us and a possible future stands a tiny minority that are actively destroying our chances of getting there. More…
America has very little time, if any, to put its house in order, before facing a major collapse.

Coke is most certainly it!
Coke’s no joke, says Aussie cancer research report

A “WAR on Coke” should be part of a global push to fight cancer, according to a report from the peak international anti-cancer body.
Cutting the consumption of sugary drinks by half is a key recommendation of the World Cancer Research Fund report.

It says almost a third of cancer cases are preventable and are caused by sedentary habits and an unhealthy diet.
It recommends that people drink less alcohol and eat less meat and more vegetables.
It also comes out against dietary supplements, despite their anti-cancer claims, because not enough is known about their effectiveness or side effects.
The report was welcomed by Craig Sinclair, director of the Cancer Council Victoria’s Cancer Prevention Centre.
He said it was the most authoritative advice yet on how to cut cancer rates.
Mr Sinclair estimated that up to 5200 cases of cancer a year in Victoria could be prevented by simple improvements to lifestyle and diet. Copyright the author or news agency.

A Herculean task, significant impact on physical and biological systems globally, worst cases in 800,000 years
One species disappears every 20 minutes, UN Experts
“In my view, climate change and the loss of biodiversity are the most alarming challenges on the global agenda,” Environment Minister Sigmar Gabriel said at the opening of a U.N. biodiversity conference on Monday.

“In my view, climate change [Germany is the world’s 6th largest pollutor] and the loss of biodiversity are the most alarming challenges on the global agenda […] It will be a Herculean task to get the world community and each individual country on the right path to sustainability [still talking about ‘Tending Our Goats at the Edge of Apocalypse’] … The truth today is that we are still on the wrong track. If we follow this path we can foresee that we will fail to meet the target … Business as usual is no more an option if humanity is going to survive. Losing biodiversity is not just losing trees and species, it is an economic and security loss. [Thanks for reading our blogs, Mr Gabriel!]” (Source)
Attributing physical and biological impacts to anthropogenic climate change
Significant changes in physical and biological systems are occurring on all continents and in most oceans, with a concentration of available data in Europe and North America. Most of these changes are in the direction expected with warming temperature. Here we show that these changes in natural systems since at least 1970 are occurring in regions of observed temperature increases, and that these temperature increases at continental scales cannot be explained by natural climate variations alone. Given the conclusions from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report that most of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the mid-twentieth century is very likely to be due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations, and furthermore that it is likely that there has been significant anthropogenic warming over the past 50 years averaged over each continent except Antarctica, we conclude that anthropogenic climate change is having a significant impact on physical and biological systems globally and in some continents.

Greenhouse gases highest in 800,000 years
Atmospheric greenhouse gases are now at the highest levels in 800,000 years, according to a study of Antarctic ice, which provides additional evidence that human activity is disrupting the climate.

“We can firmly say that today’s concentrations of carbon dioxide and methane are 28 and 124 percent higher respectively than at any time during the last 800,000 years,” said Thomas Stocker, a researcher at the University of Berne. (Source)
