BEWARE OF SUGAR
There's the old saying that sugar is poison.
After reading Lick the Sugar Habit by Nancy Appleton (PhD), you'll be convinced
of that. Most people in the world each consume more than 50 – 80 kilos of sugar
and related sweeteners each year. Before you doubt it, consider that there are
about 17 teaspoons of sugar in a single can of Coke. Author Nancy Appleton
(PhD) delineates how sugar overconsumption wreaks havoc with the immune and

Scientific Consensus on Climate Change
Scientific Consensus on Climate Change
Ninety-seven percent of climate scientists agree that
climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human
activities, and most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have
issued public statements endorsing this position. In its Fifth Assessment
Report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a group of 1,300
independent scientific experts from countries all over the world under the
auspices of the United Nations, concluded there's a more than 95 percent
probability that human activities over the past 50 years have warmed our
planet.
American Meteorological Society: "It is clear from
extensive scientific evidence that the dominant cause of the rapid change in
climate of the past half century is human-induced increases in the amount of
atmospheric greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons,
methane, and nitrous oxide." (2012).
