    I recorded this video many months ago and kept intending to do a better version. Unfortunately I haven't had the time so I decided to upload this one as I think it still contains a decent overview of issues that people may be unfamiliar with.

  • I like this guy, and hopefully he knows what he is doing in moving to the US. I hope it's Florida.

    I would have a hard time continuing to live in Japan with the way the government is handling this nuclear crisis and I think I would also try to leave the country but can only imagine what a difficult decision it would be in reality. Hopefully their actions will inspire others to see the problems as they truly are and create some changes in Japan. Everyone can't leave so the government needs to stop contaminating the whole country and start protecting the food supply.

    About these effects of radiation: Are there any more people that find there is less insects this year?
    Here is no flies no mosquitoes etc.
    Usually I feed the wild birds in wintertime, but when spring comes they don't even look at my food. But this year there is so few insects they have been begging for food all May and June – And it has been all sorts of birds. Not just the usual that use to come. It has been crowded round the food balls.
    And a friend just said that there are less insects where he lives too. And he has less bees this year.
    Is there any other that has noticed something similar?
    I live in the woods in south Sweden

    If this is related to radiation – it could be "silent spring"

      Yes urban, I've compared anecdotal notes here on enenews. In Australia last summer (six months ago) we had very few flies. Close to zero. Normally it's a race thru the door in summer to avoid the flies. Last summer, no such problem, at all.

      Mozzies are still hanging around tho. I'd prefer the flies, as they don't bite.

        Thanks Richard
        That is too soon to draw conclusions, but I sure am alert on this.
        Now it is winter in Australia, but in three months, the insect life should start again. Would be interesting to know how it will be this year.

      Chicago Area, Illinois USA

      This has been a very hot summer in the Mid-West of the USA-record breaking. I live 35 miles southwest of Chicago, Illinois in a wooded area.

      We usually have a problem with hornets and have to spray the eaves of the house but they just haven't been around so far. Also our mosquito population is not up to its normal level but I have just attributed that to the record heat. Our bird population was hit pretty hard a few years back when West Nile Virus came through the area. We feed the birds but I have noticed recently that when they all come as a flock there seems to be less of them kind of similar to what we experienced when West Nile hit. On the other hand our Chipmunk population seems to have experienced a boom, waiting to break my ankle on one of their little holes they have been digging all around the yard.
