This is important information that is being passed through several people.
If you know someone, who knows someone who knows someone who could help with this effort please make calls or talk to neighbors or whatever it takes. Get behind trying to help and making sensible choices that will make re-habitation of at least parts of the city possible a whole lot sooner!
The water clean-up there needs a creative solution that will be as environmentally friendly as possible.This seems to be one of those...
I can't really do much - I'm Canadian - but hey! I've got family and friends all over your country - I've lived among you - I love America - if this is all I can do to help - it's something!
Below is a link to U.S. government addresses so you can write to
express your views. Below the link is an article about a non-
toxic way of cleaning up the water better than what is evidently "in the
works". Typical - the cure can often be worse than the problem? Well it's typical - some leaders and "officials" are stuck in the mud in their thinking past their noses and outside the box!
Dear all, some of you may have heard that the three-year contract for
cleaning up New Orleans has been awarded to- yes- Kellogg Brown
and Root, a subsidiary of Halliburton!
Here is an alternative to spraying millions of our tax dollars in bleach all over the area- Please forward the following message widely.
Concerned Parties,
We are getting very close to applying "Effective Microorganisms" (EM) to the disaster site in New Orleans.
Jon Mackey, founder of Whole Foods, is willing to purchase all of the stocks of EM from the production plant in Tucson, about 25 tons, and ship it to the New Orleans Disaster Relief.
Once there, each gallon of EM can be activated 2000 times from its original quantity, which would total 50,000 tons. The final hurdle is in getting the authorization to begin applying it.
EM was used extensively throughout the Tsunami Wave Disaster. The World Health Organization had originally warned that more deaths would occur from the spread of pathogen diseases than occurred from the Tsunami Waves, which was over 150,000 deaths.
The deaths from the pathogen diseases never happened. The death rate
was actually lower after the disaster than before.
EM saved tens of thousands of lives. EM was also used by the German government after the flood disasters a couple of years ago that resulted in over $20 Billion in damage. Also, EM has been successful in cleaning up the
inland seas of Japan.
EM is relatively new to the US, although it is being used in over 120 countries around the world and has been in use for over 25 years. The final hurdle of getting EM applied to the disaster site in Louisiana is crucial. Whole Foods has been very generous in offering to purchase and transport the EM to New Orleans.
The flooded area will take at least six more weeks to pump and drain. However, in about a week, the stagnant waters combined with sewage, poisons, and other contamination sources in New Orleans will begin breeding pathogen bacteria that will begin spreading diseases throughout the region. The CDC (Center for Disease Control) in Atlanta is aware of this, but is not publicizing it to the media. The government is currently planning on spraying bleach to control the spread of pathogens, but bleach will only add to the long-term deleterious damage of the disaster.
EM is an all-natural, organic solution that has no negative side-
effects. This is why Germany and South Asia resorted to its usage rather than chemicals in their disaster decontamination relief. At this point,
we simply need authorization from FEMA and federal relief agencies
to move forward.
Senator John McCain is from Arizona, where EM is produced in the US. Many top officials are telling us that he is the most influential individual to gain approval in these emergency circumstances.
We currently have friends of Sen. McCain contacting him and apprising him of the situation. But other contacts are needed.
We need top officials from around the country encouraging this proven technology to be used immediately, before this disaster evolves into a horrendous catastrophe from the spread of pathogen diseases.
Please, this is a call to everyone to use your personal resources and personal contacts to prevent a tragedy of much greater proportions. Help us to get FEMA to authorize the application of EM as soon as possible! The EM website is: www.emamerica.com . They can be contacted at: 1-866-369-3678.
Please forward this message to all interested parties or call my
office at 505-983-4014.
Every day, every hour, every minute is crucial!
Many thanks for your prayers and encouragement.
