Subaru Among Companies Nearing Zero-Waste

Automaker Subaru saves millions through recycling and reuse. At the company’s USA Indiana plant, 99.8% of the waste from the 180,000 cars manufactured this year will be reused or recycled.

We commend you for your remarkable green practices that also save millions of dollars a year. This shows us all that saving the planet does pay off!
 
Solar evidence points to human causes of climate change

Don’t blame the sun, scientists say. At the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, held in Boston, USA, experts in solar science, climate modeling, and atmospheric science agreed that human activity is causing global warming. Dr. Casper M. Ammann, a climate modeler at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, USA said, it’s now very clear that global warming has “Nothing to do with changes in solar activity. It’s greenhouse gases.” We extend our appreciation, Dr. Ammann and other scientists, for lending your voices and expertise so that we may take correct actions to protect the planet we dearly love.

Global warming - not el Nino - drove worst drought on record in the Amazon

Amazon drought in 2005 caused by warmer oceans. Research analysis of climate and rainfall records by Brazilian Dr. Jose Marengo and colleagues has concluded that warmer ocean temperatures resulting from climate change caused the worst drought in Amazon history. The drought drained rivers dry, froze commerce, and further escalated environmental damage as lands burned and released carbon filled fumes. Dr. Marengo and researchers, thank you for giving us further evidence that time is of the essence to protect our environment and planetary home. We pray that the world will join in this globally conscious mission.
