, Koch Industries is Top 10 Air Polluter in the U.S.Posted by somone on Sat Feb-26-11 03:45 PM Political Economy Research Institute, University of Massachusetts, Amherst The Toxic 100 Air Polluters index identifies the top U.S. air polluters among the world's largest corporations. The index relies on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Risk Screening Environmental Indicators (RSEI), which assesses the chronic human health risk from industrial toxic releases. The underlying data for RSEI is the EPA’s Toxics Release Inventory (TRI), in which facilities across the U.S. report their releases of toxic chemicals. In addition to the amount of toxic chemicals released, RSEI also includes the degree of toxicity and population exposure. The Toxic 100 Air Polluters ranks corporations based on the chronic human health risk from all of their U.S. polluting facilities. http://data.rtknet.org/tox100/2010/index.php?search=yes&database=t1&detail=1&datype=T&reptype=a&company1=&company2=13671&chemfac=fac&advbasic=bas Koch Industries Rank in Toxic 100: 10 Rank among all TRI companies: 14 Air releases 2006 (lbs): 33,560,949 Incineration transfers 2006 (lbs): 1,938,445
I bet you 2 weeks ago none of these goons even knew who the Koch brothers were. Now they are the greatest evil since Teh Rove and Chimpy.
I still see no difference between what the Koch's do and what Soros does , except for the fact that Soros is a cocksucker that wants to oversee the fall of the US.
"The nation that couldn’t be conquered by foreign enemies has been conquered by its elected officials" odawg Free Republic in reference to the GOP Elites who are no difference than the Democrats
They've been talking about the Koch brothers for several months. I thought they were just another figment of their imagination until recently. I still see no difference between what the Koch's do and what Soros does , except for the fact that Soros is a cocksucker that wants to oversee the fall of the US.
The Koch brothers and George Soros are two sides of the same coin. Both are fabulously wealthy business moguls. The Koch brothers love America and are promoting actions they honestly believe will help her prosper. Soros hates America, and is promoting actions he honestly believes will help destroy her. Neither the Koch brothers nor Soros are motivated by personal profit, just political ideology. Democrat beliefs are in line with Soros, so they hate the Koch brothers.
I think Soros is somewhat motivated also by profit, and has had his hands in on several economic collapses before. He has been around and active for a long time.
I kind of suspect it isn't so much profit as it is he gets his jollies from causing chaos. Then again I keep hearing all the things about Soros is just lies made up by Beck.
They are obsessed with Koch.(How do you pronounce their name? Cock?)
Coke.
Seriously? I've been calling them the "cock" brothers.
RecyclingGP Harmon Recycling, a division of Georgia-Pacific, is one of the top suppliers of recovered paper in the world. In 2008, Harmon managed nearly 7 million tons of recovered paper worldwide. Approximately 3.4 million tons were used in Georgia-Pacific facilities in 2008 while the rest was sold to other users of recovered paper. GP Harmon Recycling also manages other recyclable materials, including aluminum and plastic.http://www.kochind.com/EHS/forest.aspx
If I read this correctly, the majority of the "problem" is with one Georgia Pacific location:http://data.rtknet.org/tox100/index.php?search=yes&database=t1&detail=1&datype=T&reptype=a&company2=13671&company1=&parent=&chemfac=fac&advbasic=basKoch Industries bought Georgia Pacific in 2005, and I've found several articles about the use of old data for these rankings, and PERI admitted in a response to Kodak that the latest data they had was from 2002. So already looking like a hit piece, not real news...Then I ran across this: Now, seriously, is there any chance the left is hitting out at Koch for political reasons and ignoring the actual overall work of their industries? (Like they believe Al Gore's global warming crap despite his over-the-top personal energy use while ignoring Pres. Bush's very green Texas home?) Nah, there is no way our intelligent, educated, ethical left would ignore facts to score political points. Right?
Political Economy Research Institute = communist front group.Anytime you see the words: Political, Justice, Economic, Social, Progress, People(s), ... in an organizations name, there is a 98% chance of that group being a communist front group.
Add "Peace", "Democratic", and "Equality".
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
I had heard of Soros long before I heard of Glenn Beck, so someone must have been spreading the "lies" before Beck.
