By Daniel de Vries

The Obama administration released Monday final rules governing climate pollution from the power sector, the nation's largest source of greenhouse gas emission. The rules, known as the Clean Power Plan, establish state-by-state goals for carbon emissions in 2030. Despite claiming to reduce greenhouse gases from power plants by 32 percent, the plan will do next to nothing to forestall climate change

The dropping of those bombs and the explicit threat ever since to drop more is a new crime that has given birth to a new species of imperialism.

Jimmy Carter challenged America to restore democracy. And he was right to do so. But can it be done? And, if so, then how? It's the great issue in 2016.

By Ram Puniyani

http://www.countercurrents.org/puniyani060815.htm

After staging the Yoga on 21st June 2015 on Raj Path, Delhi, Modi Sarkar has planned to celebrate Rakhi, Raksha Bandhan at a grand scale in late August. This plan has full approval of its parent organization, the RSS. Now a Hindu religious festival will be given the status of a national festival so blatantly. It surely is indication of the type of deeper agenda of narrow nationalism this Government has in mind
