New White House Chief of Staff Supports the Pickens Plan for Clean Energy!

Yesterday, November 06, 2008, 1:06:09 PM | Rich

Big news on the Pickens Plan front! Congressman Rahm Emanuel (D-IL) has just been announced as the new White House chief of staff when President-elect Barack Obama is inauguarted next January 20.

Rep. Emanuel is a BIG supporter of moving to natural gas generally and the Pickens Plan in particular. He introduced Boone at a town hall event in Chicago in October. In an interview posted on the Pickens Plan website on Sept. 30, 2008, Rep. Emanuel said,

I agree with the Pickens Plan to fuel more cars with natural gas. To reduce our oil consumption, we need to give American drivers a choice of how they fuel their cars; natural gas vehicles can help provide that choice. And I believe that an energy policy aimed at curbing our addition to oil will allow us to create new jobs, curb global warming, and reduce our dependence on foreign oil.

This is the man who will have enormous influence not just over the White House staff, but over the direction that many of the Cabinet Departments take as well.

You can read the entire interview with Congressman Emanuel by visiting the PicketsPlan website.

Please don't disrupt my endocrines!

This article from the Enviroblog lays out the problems with plastics and chemicals which may be hormone disruptors causing health risks - particularly serious for young people!

By Lisa Frack October 21, 2008

Unless you've been living under a rock these past few years, or purposefully avoiding the newspaper, you've likely heard the term 'endocrine disruptor.' And it has a serious ring to it, doesn't it? Like when you hear the phrase you get an immediate sense that endocrines should definitely not be disrupted, and a sinking feel that maybe yours aren't safe. And you'd be right on both counts.

What's an endocrine, anyway? First off, it's the endocrine system, not just one lone endocrine (as I once thought). And this is one important system. Why? It produces and manages hormones, that's why. It accomplishes this through a complex system of glands and receptors throughout the body (familiar sounding glands like pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, ovaries, and testicles). Hormones (such as insulin, estrogen, and testosterone) are produced in these glands, travel through the bloodstream, and bind with matching receptors. These hormones control a bunch of important functions in the body, like growth, reproduction, blood pressure, and food utilization, to name but a few.
