Upcoming ride for Old-Growth!!

The BC Liberal government has announced a new plan for BC's coastal forests, the "Coastal Forest Action Plan". This “Log it All” and “Export the Logs” plan places no new restrictions on the logging of Old-Growth forests, provides misleading old-growth forest statistics, and will lead to an overall increase in raw log exports.The old-growth forests of Vancouver Island are among the most

Mean Automakers Dash Nation's Hope For Flying CarsIts funny the car advert that is bundled with the video, they really are trying to make people feel warm and fuzzy about the latest version of green cars, aka 'hybrid.'
