The Toyota Mirai Gas Cell Car is an instance that needs to be adopted by others corresponding to these advocated by the Methanol Institute.

Nonprofits unfairly
focused in adverts
Voters have been inundated with marketing campaign messaging distinguishing one candidate from one other. Sadly, nonprofits discover themselves within the crosshairs.
Exhibiting “what’s flawed with authorities” by attacking nonprofits demonstrates a lack of know-how of our authorities’s accountability to residents. As a substitute of concentrating on hovering housing prices, the pandemic and the gradual street to restoration, some candidates are blaming nonprofits.
Nonprofits adhere to strict laws and are accountable for the funds they obtain. Our funding is an funding in prevention providers that save taxpayer dollars. Neighborhood Well being Partnership and its ten member well being facilities take pleasure within the high quality work we do, who we serve and what we ship at a modest value. We sit up for persevering with our robust partnerships with companies who share our dedication to serving the neighborhood.

Prop. 1 goes too far
in abortion debate
Re. “Why a Bay Space Catholic physician helps abortion selection,” Web page A6, Oct. 13:
In her article, Dr. Julia Walsh signifies that she helps the “abortion decisions” as soon as protected beneath the now overruled Roe case as a result of she had witnessed the hurt triggered to moms by botched abortions earlier than that case. Nevertheless, she doesn't point out whether or not she helps Proposition 1, now earlier than the voters, which might go far past what the Roe case allowed and probably “enshrine” all late-term abortions into the California Structure. Proposition 1 doesn't even point out the phrase, “girls”.
Dr. Walsh focuses on the 1000's of girls who had been harmed by unlawful abortions earlier than Roe however she is silent in regards to the thousands and thousands of harmless infants who've been aborted since Roe. Trendy medical, scientific, photographic, and ultrasound expertise (in addition to her personal Catholic religion which she mentions) all reveal that these infants reside human beings whose lives are violently torn aside and snuffed out by abortion. What about them?

Will Alex Jones additionally
pay for 9/11 lies?
Re. “Alex Jones ordered to pay $965M for bloodbath lies,” Web page A3, Oct. 13:
Now that Alex Jones has been ordered to pay nearly a billion dollars for his lies in regards to the Sandy Hook tragedy, it’s time to handle his different loony conspiracy allegations.
I'm referring to his claims that the constructing collapses in New York Metropolis on 9/11, which took almost 3,000 lives, had been a results of managed demolition presumably orchestrated by the U.S. authorities. Nevertheless, nearly all of the proof he and different conspiracy theorists cite is both a misrepresentation, a gross exaggeration or is contradicted by proof they conceal. And so as to add insult to harm, the most important participant within the 9/11 “fact” business, Architects and Engineers For 9/11 Reality, operates as a tax-exempt “instructional” establishment.
Free speech is a proper we should always cherish however outrageous claims that exploit a nationwide tragedy for private revenue and that intentionally incite hatred for our authorities needs to be excluded.
