So... Cecilia is part of their team to sell Climate Change mumbo-jumbo (perhaps even writing in Spanish?) and these two Chamber of Commerce dudes are probably part of the groups telling us how good all those illegal immigrants are for the economy and why we need McCainiacs shamnesty!

Here is Cecilia’s book intro (”climate colonialism, revolutionary ecology, and environmental commodification”?):

Environmental Justice: Discourses in International Political Economy By John Byrne, Leigh Glover, Cecilia Martinez

Environmental justice is one of the most controversial and important issues in contemporary social science. Volume 8 of the Energy and Environmental Policy series challenges our understanding of environmental justice in a global context. It includes theoretical investigations and case studies by leading authors in the field.

Global forces of technology and the development of global markets are transforming social life and the natural order. These changes require a critical examination of nature-society relations. Increasingly, modernization assigns the risks of modernity to those with the least power and greatest vulnerability to environmental harm.

Conventional environmentalism, which focuses on the critique of the effects of humanity on nature, is struggling with the problem of environmental justice. In particular, it is having difficulty explaining persistent patterns of social injustice that accompany escalating environmental exploitation. As the capacity for environmental destruction expands, broader concerns about environmental injustice have come to the fore, including awareness of threats to whole cultures, ways of life, and entire ecologies.

The volume’s authors consider the links between expanded patterns of environmental injustice and the structures and forces underlying and shaping the international political economy.

Environmental injustice is examined across a variety of cultures in the developed and developing world. Through case studies of climate colonialism, revolutionary ecology, and environmental commodification, the global and local dimensions of the problem are presented.

The latest volume in this important series demonstrates that environmental justice cannotbe reduced to simple parables of indifference, prejudice, or appropriation. It forges an understanding of environmental injustice as a development of international political economy itself. Likewise, initiatives on behalf of environmental justice are seen as elements of broader movements to secure self-determination in a globalizing world.

This book will be of interest to policymakers, energy and environmental experts, and all those interested in the environment and environmental law. It provides new perspectives on the place of environmental justice in international political and economic conflict.

Just what we need - another dog in the race! LOL

Spike’s got my vote - he’s is truly a man’s best friend. Dogs have loyalty unlike man.

Thank you. I’ve mostly ignored McCain because I thought his ascent was impossible. That’ll teach me.

At this point, I’d like to encourage everyone to vote for my very conservative dog, Spike. He’s a great Jack Russell Terrier. He would never screw us like McCain surely will. At most, he’d ask for is dog treat in every pot. He’s in favor of smaller government, tax cuts, and crushing our enemies.

I'll confess, I'm already somewhat intrigued. What's his stance on illegal immigration...? ;)

IOW, the environment alarm is just another step towards gobalization and Soros and McCain are deep into it...Looks like there is much more to McCain than meets the eye...

And it also looks like his McCain-Feingold may have been a shell game to keep soft money out of his opponents hands while lining his own pockets through the Reform Institute and with contributions from Soros’ other organization, OSI...Ya know, McCain may be an ultimate Washington insider who knows how to say one thing while doing another...I’m beginning to really wonder now....

Care to join us on the sunny side of the butt bench?

The last time I used those precise same words in a sentence together, it ended up meaning a thirty day sentence for soliciting. ;)
