-ne Our Global Network web site has had well over 5,000 hits today as people learn about our opposition to the launch of the controversial New Horizons mission to Pluto that will carry 24 pounds of plutonium onboard.The media has begun to cover the danger of the plutonium launch in the last couple of days. CBS evening news last night made mention of the opposition to launching nuclear power into space and today CNN TV news ran a nice interview with Karl Grossman who gave some background and context to our concerns. They ask why so few were there after we had 1,000 people at the space center in 1997 protesting the Cassini launch that carried 72 pounds of plutonium onboard?I also organized large protests at the space center in 1989 against the nuclear Galileo mission and then again in 1990 when Ulysses lifted off with plutonium onboard. The media and NASA would like the public to believe that there is not much opposition to the New Horizons plutonium launch just because we did not organize a big rally at the space center. The public says, âYes these pictures from space are nice but Iâd rather have my tax dollars spent on health care, education, child care, or cleaning up our planet Earth.â In the end we can say that people around the world are learning that the New Horizons space probe is another controversial space shot with deadly plutonium onboard.

Not.But that is what we need,if the rest of the world is to livelike our part of the world.Worldwatch has issued its annual State of the Worldand that is its conclusion.Here is the story.’Find a couple of spare planets or face global oil war’Times OnlineBy Richard Beeston, Diplomatic EditorTHE world faces the real threat of a new conflict over oil as China competes with existing world powers for scarce resources to feed its growing economy, according to a report published today.The State of the World 2006, released by the Worldwatch Institute, says that last year China became the second- largest importer of oil, after the US, while consuming26 per cent of the worldâs steel,32 per cent of rice production,37 per cent of cotton and47 per cent of cement.China is set to become the worldâs largest carmaker in the coming decade.While environmentalists are concerned about the impact on the worldâs climate and the drain on its resources, strategists fear that the competition for energy, particularly oil, could destabilise the planet.According to the report, China was nearly self-sufficient in oil in the mid-1990s. But over the past decade its consumption has doubled and it has now overtaken Japan as the second-largest importer of oil, with 3.2 million barrels a day in 2004.It predicts that if the economies of China and India continue to grow at their current rate, the world will not be able to produce enough oil to meet demand by 2050, when consumption will have grown from the current 85 million barrels a day to 200 million barrels. âFew geologists believe that output will reach even half those levels before beginning to decline,â the report says.As a result China is already looking for new oil suppliers from Siberia to Sudan, often dealing with notorious regimes, such as the junta in Burma. Of even greater concern is the possibility that open conflict could break out between nations competing for resources or trying to protect their supply lines, such as key trade routes, currently patrolled by the US Navy.The report draws the parallel between Japan in the 1930s and China today. It recalls that it was Japanâs inability to secure its oil supplies from South-East Asia that prompted its entry into the Second World War.Today Beijing is strengthening its Navy to protect its energy supplies, shipped at great distances from the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.âThe prospect of countries ranging from the United States and China to Japan and Saudi Arabia â together with the worldâs terrorists â vying for physical control of the worldâs oil does not sound like a prescription for global security,â the Worldwatch report says.Christopher Flavin, the Worldwatch president, says in a preface to the report,âUnless we find a couple of spare planets in the next few decades, neither of these projections will come to pass . . .We therefore face a choice:Rethink almost everything, or risk a downward spiral of political competition and economic collapse,â he says.
