Parched: California Drought Update
Sept. 2, 2014, 11:40 p.m.
As Californians continue to look beseechingly to the skies for signs of any kind of rainfall, the effects of this drought are indeed far-reaching. The policies that emerge from this disastrously dry year may ultimately alter what foods we eat, where we build new homes and even what sports we play. Earlier this year, we heard from the President of the Pacific Institute, Peter Gleick, as he told us of the critical nature of this drought, even in its early stages. This week on Sea Change Radio, host Alex Wise speaks again to Dr. Gleick for an update and to get a glimpse into the future of what a permanently drier California might mean for us all.

Poisoning the Sky (ONE of TWO)
Sept. 2, 2014, 4:54 p.m.
On July 15, 2014, residents of Shasta County in remote Northern California took unprecedented action before their Board of Supervisors. They were giving testimony on a phenomenon of recent years: the appearance of lingering white trails in the sky above, that join to create a haze; and on their discovery that after these hazings rain, snow and surface water in ponds contain toxic chemicals, among them aluminum. They brought the issue before the Shasta County Supervisors as a matter of public health and an issue of citizen's right to know.
Residents submitted test data from California licensed labs showing the presence of aluminum, barium and strontium in snow and rainwater after hazing events. They brought in copies of patents used by the military and private contractors that list the identical ingredients for use in weather modification.
'Anti-ISIS campaign' is a Trojan Horse to escalate the war against Syria
Sept. 2, 2014, 4:16 p.m.
The U.S. is hyping ISIS as the greatest terror force imaginable, even though according to the FBI, "there are no credible threats to the U.S. homeland."
The ideology of the Caliphate derives from Qatar and Saudi Arabia. ISIS-style beheadings are an institution in Saudi Arabia.
Yet the Pentagon is discussing airstrikes on Syria instead of the medieval terror kingdoms that it supports in the Middle East.
Stephen Gowans also discusses the NATO buildup over Ukraine. NATO is constantly checking the windows and the doors of countries it doesn't own.
Don't expect the United States to adopt a consistent posture on sovereignty when it comes to Syria or Ukraine.
Labor Day -- Before and Now: From Internationalist Unity to Militarism
Sept. 2, 2014, 4:05 p.m.
Phil Taylor and Phil Conlon discuss how the meaning and practice of Labour Day has been corrupted: Going from a celebration of internationalism of workers who saw themselves as part of humanity and anti-militarism to celebration of military air shows and a ritual of pretending to care about those who fell in the past.
Phil Conlon reads Joe Fiorito's satirical column, "It's time to end the celebration of death and kill the airshow."
Taylor also praises and summarizes Ishmael Reed's article "Bad Apples in Ferguson," which emphasizes police brutality is not just against blacks, but against a rainbow of minority colors, esp. Native Americans, Latinos and Muslims. Reed says that the statistics in polls should reflect this reality.
