PFAS is more prevalent in food than water

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by
There could be more PFAS contamination in this seafood platter than drinking water containing 70 parts per trillion of the toxins every day for 80 years.
The Department of Defense is engaged in a campaign to convince the public that the PFAS contamination it has caused on military bases and in surrounding regions around the world is being cleaned up and that it is safeguarding public health by complying with the EPA’s lifetime health advisory of 70 parts per trillion (ppt) in drinking water. For the most part, both claims are false.

BERLIN (IDN) – You could be excused for having missed the fact that NATO is in the process of updating its nuclear strategy, including substantial and significant steps. These include technologically more ambitious weapons that can be used more easily. This is the implementation of a decision made at the NATO Warsaw Summit in 2016 to revise nuclear strategy.

PFAS and The Bomb

Inextricably linked existential threats to humanity. by Pat Elder In Greek mythology, the tale of Daedalus and his son, Icarus provides a lesson that humanity has never learned. Daedalus created wings from feathers and wax. He warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun for fear that the wax would melt. Icarus took off, exhilarated with the invention, and soared exuberantly toward the sun. His wings fell apart, and Icarus fell to his death. Remarkable technologies may escape … Continue reading →

Dedos en los gatillos, la OTAN nuclear y una reconstrucción mejor

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

22.07.2020 – Boston, EE.UU. – Joseph Gerson Con nuestros periódicos y reportajes centrados en la explosión mortal de infecciones de covid-19 en todo el país, y Trump inflando la supuesta amenaza de China en su esfuerzo desesperado por evitar su derrota en Noviembre, las armas nucleares de EE.UU. y la OTAN que se acumulan en Europa han pasado desapercibidas. Esto supone un gran peligro pues las tensiones con Rusia siguen aumentando. La OTAN se ha estado preparando para la guerra … Continue reading →

Trigger Fingers, Nuclear NATO, and Building Back Better

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

by Josef Gerson With our newspapers and press reports focused on the deadly explosion of covid-19 infections across the country and Trump inflating threats by posed China in his desperate effort to avoid defeat in November, the U.S/NATO nuclear weapons build up across Europe has gone unremarked. That too is dangerous. Tensions with Russia continue to build. NATO has been preparing for war with its “Defender” military exercises across Europe. And, Secretary of Defense Mark Esper participated in a war … Continue reading →

Invitation to sign an Appeal to the left and progressive forces in the European Parliament

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

Deadline 25.08.2020 Dear friends, On 23 July, the vast majority of the Left Group (GUE/NGL) in the European Parliament approved, together with the social democratic (S&D), Green and rightist (EPP, Renew) parties, a resolution which criticizes the ‘European deal’ of 21 July on the Recovery Fund and the multi-annual European budget. There are indeed plenty of reasons to criticize the proposal of the European Council, but the resolution of the European Parliament also contains elements which are unacceptable from a progressive point … Continue reading →

Article on incinerating PFAS article on incinerating PFAS

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

The US is incinerating is leftover stockpiles of the most lethal types of firefighting foams containing PFAS.  The process is deadly to surrounding communities because the materials typically can’t be destroyed by incineration.    I had a conversation with a retired Environmental Protection Agency official in New York last week and she told me there have been no shipments of retired PFAS foam from NATO bases in Europe to the U.S. for incineration. So, tens of thousands of the most … Continue reading →

WHAT’S NATO UP TO?

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

by Rae Street August 2020 NATO was once described as the ‘military arm of the US empire’.  And one might add ‘nuclear empire’.  As we remember Hiroshima on 6th August 1945, the horrendous suffering which was brought about on that day to the people of Japan and, later, on the 9th August, Nagasaki day, it is worth thinking about NATO’s policies and, in particular. Its nuclear policies.   Since the end of totalitarian communism, unlike the Warsaw Pact which was disbanded, … Continue reading →

Campaign Against a New Cold War Launched and Gathers Immediate Support

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

A New Cold War against China is against the interests of humanity We note the increasingly aggressive statements and actions being taken by the US government in regard to China. These constitute a threat to world peace and are an obstacle to humanity successfully dealing with extremely serious common issues which confront it such as climate change, control of pandemics, racist discrimination and economic development. We therefore believe that any New Cold War would run entirely counter to the interests … Continue reading →
