CLEAN AIR NOW

Submitted by ub on

Clear the air for our children because one in seven children or 300 million  live in areas where the outdoor air pollution is toxic.

Have you ever wondered what that looks like? Immerse yourself in various parts of Nigeria where air pollution is part of an everyday reality for many.

A three-paragraph vague letter released by the Republican FBI Director and sent to GOP leaders, and copied to Democrat lawmakers has raised unprecedented questions about information which have been thoroughly reviewed by investigators.

Public or Private Infrastructure?

Trump says US can get $1 trillion worth of infrastructure for free. How can this be accomplished? More about this below. This concept has been introduced elsewhere with some success. However, we wonder if America should be put up FOR SALE?

There are a few more good signs for Clinton in key states as the millions of votes which have been cast in the U.S. presidential election are now pointing to an advantage for the Democrat in Florida and North Carolina, both must-win states for Trump, as well as Nevada, Colorado and Arizona.
