People don't talk about it much, but global warming is still a VERY IMPORTANT danger to nature and humankind globally. A germ, nicknamed the stealth germ, that causes swine slu has been found in areas all over the world. The suspicion of terrorism may creep into your mind when thinking of hundreds, even thousands, of people dying as a result of contracting the disease. The fact remains that Al Queda is still a group of religious guys who have a political agenda, so they are not trying to kill off every human animal on the face of the planet. That means that another cause for the germ in different parts of the world must exist. The only thing that I can think of that's a common threat to the largely swine flu affected areas is Global Warming. The US and international governments slow acting to stop car makers from making non-hybris, non-electric, or non-ethanol cars is tremendously and surprisingly slow. Is it too slow? Are we all going to die from swine flu if we don't wear gloves in public restrooms or face masks in the public? I may be paranoid, but I'm worried. From: 5-10-09
