Nestle is looking to once again rob the public of their water. The corporate giant came under fire last year for bottling water in drought-stricken California, and now, they’re looking to cash out in Michigan. Residents of the state have until March 3rd, 2017 to speak out and stop Nestle’s greedy water grab.

Right now, Nestle has filed for a permit that would allow them to double the amount of groundwater the corporation can take from the Muskegon River watershed — for just $200. Keep in mind, Nestle would be bottling this water and selling it for massive profits. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is accepting public commentary until March 3rd, so be sure to submit a comment if you want your voice on this matter to be heard.   Continue reading “Stop Nestle from stealing millions of gallons of water from the Great Lakes”

March 2 (UPI) — DNA is nature’s hard drive, capable of storing, replicating and transmitting massive amounts of information. Researchers in New York found a way to use DNA like an actual computer hard drive, successfully storing, replicating and retrieving several digital files.

A pair of scientists from Columbia University and the New York Genome Center selected five files — including a computer operating system and computer virus — and compressed them into a master file. They transcribed the master file into short strings of binary code, combinations of ones and zeros.   Continue reading “Scientists successfully store computer files in DNA”

LAS VEGAS – A lawyer for a Nevada rancher whose father fought the government for decades over grazing and property rights said Thursday he’ll appeal a federal judge’s order to pay $587,000 and remove his livestock from federal lands by the end of the month.

If anyone doubts that the Trump administration is merely the continuation of the Anglo-American establishment, at least where Syria and Western imperialism is concerned, they need only follow the recent events having taken place in the United Nations Security Council.

In a draft initiated and supported by the United States, U.K., and France, a plan was put forward to impose new sanctions on the Syrian government in the form of a ban on all shipments of helicopters to the army or the government. It also included sanctions on a number of Syrian officials and government institutions allegedly involved in “chlorine attacks.” The draft resolution received nine votes, the minimum necessary for passing such a document. However, both the Russians and the Chinese as well as the Bolivians vetoed the measure with Egypt, Kazakhstan, and Ethiopia abstaining.   Continue reading “U.S. Sponsors New Sanctions Against Syria At UN Security Council, Russia “Has No Choice” But To Veto”
