    Little local awareness of the climate change impact, call for more resilient building

    Speak only for yourself. I almost always look at all the different opinions and sources for almost any subject. There are other search engines beside google that aren't as blatant in their used of Algorithms. I have been interested in Climate and pollution since I read Silent Spring back in 1966.

    Safety in The DR

    I have been offered one by the widow friend of ours whose husband died of cancer. Nice navy colt 45, was registered in his name and he did all the licensing, ballistic tests...etc. They had a colmado in Los Alcarrizos, and it was necessary. I decided it was too much effort.

    Little local awareness of the climate change impact, call for more resilient building

    We can adapt to climate change, we can pollute less, but most Climate change is not man-made. I am very well read on the subject and have several friends that are very involved in the research.
