"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired
signifies, in the final sense, a theft from
those who hunger and are not fed,
those who are cold and not clothed.
This world in arms is not spending money alone.
It is spending the sweat of its laborers,
the genius of its scientists,
the hopes of its children.
This is not a way of life at all in any true sense.
Under the cloud of threatening war,
it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron."

--- Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890 - 1969).
From a speech before the American Society of Newspaper Editors, 1
6 April 1963

Touted as clean, nuclear pollutes and threatens SC

Recently Governor Mark Sanford pledged to create a commission on climate change to map out ways the state should take on global warming. Nearly twenty states have already established such panels, serving to catalyze policies such as California's requirement that industries reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2020. It's high time that we see bold action on global warming here in South Carolina.
