The irony is that the meltdown on Wall Street causes panic. While the melting of the polar ice caps is largely ignored. But Mother Nature cannot be ‘regulated’ or ‘bailed out’.

Hi Sandra,
Attached is my press release which will be sent out on Canada Newswire later today or tomorrow morning:
Dear Prime Minister, You say a pollution tax would wreak havoc on our economy…
A little background for you on why I wrote this visual letter to the PM:
Elections are always important but this time around I think the choice we have is more critical than ever.
When I started to imagine talking to my friends and family and suggesting they give serious consideration to voting for any of parties that have a green agenda (Liberals, Greens or NDP), I realized they would all say, “Franke, it’s a nice idea to vote for the environment, but we really have to vote for a strong economy…. ”
When that penny dropped I decided to write a letter to Stephen Harper in the form of a visual essay:
“Dear Prime Minister, You say a pollution tax would wreak havoc on our economy…” http://www.frankejames.com/debate/?p=111
Please consider sharing this with your network!
Thanks,
Franke
