Yes apparently,"China is the most peaceful fun loving and environmentally friendly country in the world."
Official communist party communique.

It's funny because when you type things like,"The communist party is fun.",for example,nothing happens.But I'll type in,"The Chinese System Is a Co....t,To.l....r..n,D.c....r.,Something very funny happens?
P.s
I know, It's not funny.

in fact, my cynisme was more adressed to Google, collaborating recently with the dictatorial attitude of the Chinees party...by excluding specific Google search results (websites)...

I agree.
Just... I know I already said something similar, but...
Unluckly I'm largely supporting that system. The most of the audio gear I can afford is built using Chinese labour.
No manufaturer, however, specify where the product is built, in the advertisements and web sites. I buy things, open the boxes and read "made in China" or " made in PCR".
The first time I read "PCR" I was in a dizziness moment and thougt: "PCR? A new plastic material?"
Earth day?

Have you heard of the accusations pubblicly addressed by a Buddhist Chinese woman to the president of China before he start his speach in the USA, beside G. Bush.

ROFL! Made me laugh the other day that the US were asking China to cut their emissions.H-Rave wrote:

1.The largest part of the Chinese economy comes from counterfeit goods.
2.It's a dictature.
3.Can you be communist and buddhist?
4.Do you consider dealing with China to be commercially equitable,seeing as everyone is basically a slave.
I'm sorry the list goes on and on and on.
P.s.
The Chinese President's reply to the woman was,"Your days are numbered !"

Well, I'm not a big fan of China (I think what they have done to Tibet is disgusting) but what you're saying is pretty hypocritical IMHO. Everyone is a slave throughout the world - if you don't work you don't get money and you don't eat. Likewise, in most places in the world, if you meddle in political matters, the people who have that power are not going to be happy and will do whatever they can to neutralize you.
Just because the wages are lower in China doesn't necessarily mean anything - the local economy is always tuned to the earning levels of the local people. Also, you'd be surprised how 'westernized' China is - they are all well on their way to being stupified by the trademarks of democracy - Coke, fast food, designer clothes, and all the rest.

Sorry again; just now I realize that has no sense for people without Italian language knowledge. We use often use the preposition "in" meaning "of", when talking about building materials.On 2006-04-23 13:32, Cochise wrote:

I'm sorry rezin I'm not even going to respond to that.I've deleted and written this post four times and every time I just get angry.

There are certainly plenty of attrocities committed by our world's governments leaders & dictators. It's almost becoming too may to keep account of, but what are society's slaves to do? Stand up & fight? mmm. but then you'd be a terrorist based on your beliefs against certain societal beliefs or laws & be shot on sight, by yank soldiers who call anything that moves a gook.
I think eliam nailed it, but no 'earth day' is gonna build solar, wind & hydro power stations capable of replacing our nuclear ones in a hurry. The cheap & easy route for governments to solve power issues in the short term is to build more nuclear reactors, which is exactly what they are doing or planning in many countries.. sigh
The greed of the rich will be the death of the poor.

It seems that, considering the installation expenses and the cost of the radioactive waste disposal, nuclear energy is not that cheap.
And its price could rise; the risk increase in proportion with the proliferation of power plants; not just for neighbours.
Nevertheless, looking forward, also the uranium is a resource bound to worn out in the next fifty years.
They're just defering the problem.

About nuclear for military:
If anyone has Nasa Worldwind installed, check nuclear explosions add on.
The number of test made is simply awful.
Adding all up, I seriously doubt that nuclear has improved life quality.

Sorry, I didn't be able to find different language versions of this page with the same data reported.
In the block Impatto globale (you could try Google language tool) is asserted that the Chernobyl accident released 400 times more radiations than the Hiroshima bomb, but from 100 to 1000 times less than nuclear weapon tests made in the middle of the XX century...
In the tail of the first block 'La centrale' (The plant) is asserted:
The reactor aim was the production of electricity for civil uses and plutonium for military. Technical solutions reducing safety levels was adopted for efficiency increasing purposes. First of all the choice of graphite as moderator: this material is used for neutron moderation and above all for Plutonium-239 production facility.
20 years ago on 26th of April 1986 at 01:24:47 the reactor n°4 of the Chernobyl plant exploded.
Peace.

Peace indeed.
Trying that to all those fighting over money & power in the world.. the destructors, the ones with certain nuke shelter passes. Filth.

Unluckly many people is firmly convinced that the right direction for the civilization is the one right also for their immediate comfort. Moreover the profit interest often prevail over the common sense.
I've just read all this thread again and my memories have been carried back to a movie I've seen in the end of the 70s.
The China syndrome.
Does anyone remember?
