ALCOA proposes and our Government has accepted the construction of a 341,000 Mt/y aluminum smelter plant in the South West of our tiny island. ALCOA says that their "modern smelter" poses no real risk of cancer to workers and that new technology has reduced environmental impacts to manageable amounts. They are dosing our media with all the benefits and promising the local community among many other things a "pharmaceutical herbarium" no less. ALCOA has not provided any scientific proof for the claims of their new technology so far other than trotting in a researcher from yale whose research they finance to give us assurances of the "all clear". We have mounted considerable resistance so far, to support the local community which is against it. This is not the only problem, our Government proposes a 2nd smelter 135,000Mt/y partly owned by Government and SURAL of Venezuela, to be built by the Chinese. Trinidad has natural gas, weak environmental legislation and weak workers rights. We need outside help to get real data on modern pre-bake aluminum smelters. CAN YOU HELP?

They know that what can not be accomplished with the ballot is sometimes done with a bullet. Gun control in the US is how the Illuminati use the political "left" puppets to subjugate our lives while the "right" puppets further torture the planet and their neighbor. May the reproductive organs of the Illuminati dry out and fall off-lest the planet be subjected to another generation of their demon-spawn!
