** EXPLANATION OF TIP POLICIES ON INFO & SOURCES.  
We live in challenging times – in which “Science” is presented to us from 
a variety of sources – often conflicting in their conclusions.  I  do not claim 
to be an expert in science or medicine.  However, logic & years of journalistic 
research are my guides.  My basic principle is that I consider likely bias or 
independence as factors to consider when judging the potential value of 
information that I find.   I don’t push for my own answer to controversies – 
just share the various considerations that lead me to see possibilities of 
at least some truth.   The Covid discussion is one such difficult situation
to address, one that is overwhelmingly covered by mainstream media 
according to Big Pharma pronouncements.  So, in this as in other such, 
I feel it right to put forth alternative views and reports – not to endorse all 
that is said, but to just provide opinions and information that appear to 
have some potential validity and value.  I leave it to my readers to 
determine what they believe about the conflicting statements.

** FASCINATING VACCINE DEBATE BETWEEN ROBERT KENNEDY JR. 
& ALAN DERSHOWITZ   moderated by Patrick Bet-David, premiered on 
Valuetainment 7/23/2020. This is not an "Us Vs. Them" or “Pro Vs. Anti-Vaccine”
debate – Both Kennedy & Dershowitz Are Sensible, Friendly, Thoughtful & 
Facts-Based!    I Urge All To See Or Read It!  I watched this and it is amazing
- not biased, almost not a debate, but a discussion - and both speakers 
sharing real medical and legal information.  Also, neither biased for or 
against vaccines - just fairness, truth and logic.

NOTE:  As in recent TIP TALKS, 3 major concerns are in the spotlight – 
EMFs, Covid & Pesticides. (There is a bit on Fossil Fuel too).  
What times we live in!  At least, there is actually a surprising bit 
of Good News, too!  Blessings, Liberty G

TELL THE CALIFORNIA SENATE TO PASS THE TOXIC-FREE COSMETICS ACT
Last month, the California Assembly passed the Toxic-Free Cosmetics Act by a 
bipartisan vote of 54-0. The bill bans 12 of the most toxic chemicals used in 
cosmetics sold in California, including mercury, formaldehyde, parabens, phthalates
and PFAS chemicals.  The bill now needs to pass in the state Senate and then be 
signed into law by Gov. Newsom. If that happens, it could have huge implications
for cosmetics safety, not just in California but in the rest of the U.S., too.   Below are 
some resources to help you understand why this new legislation is big news, how 
you can take action to support it, and ways you can protect yourself and your loved
ones from concerning ingredients in personal care products.

               STOP THE SPREAD OF PFAS CONTAMINATION!
Hazardous PFAS chemicals contaminate the drinking water of millions 
of Americans and the blood of nearly every American, including military 
service members.  PFAS chemicals are a family of thousands of highly toxic
chemicals that never break down and are commonly used in nonstick cookware, 
waterproof clothing and grease-resistant food packaging. Some of these 
chemicals have been linked to serious health risks, like cancer and thyroid
disease.  For decades, chemical companies like Dupont and 3M have 
knowingly released toxic PFAS chemicals into the environment.  But 
they are doing little to stop the alarming spread of contamination.  
Washington is on the brink of finally passing meaningful PFAS regulation reform.  
Access the form below to urge your representative to support PFAS reform.

MEXICO ANNOUNCES PHASE-OUT & BAN ON GLYPHOSATE HERBICIDES 
www.gmwatch.org/en/news/latest-news/19452-mexico-announces-phase-out-and-ban-on-glyphosate-herbicides  Published by Sustainable Pulse,  June 27,2020  
The Secretariat of Environment & Natural Resources (SEMARNAT), Mexico’s 
Environment Ministry, has announced that glyphosate-based herbicides will be 
phased out of use in the country by 2024 to protect human health & environment. 
Dr. Adelita San Vicente Tello, Director General of Primary Sector & Renewable 
Natural Resources at SEMARNAT, announced the news after participating in the 
conversation, "Why will Mexico join the ban on glyphosate?" organized by National 
Autonomous University of Mexico’s (UNAM) Academic Observatory of Society, 
Environment & Institutions. Damián Marino, National University of La Plata, 
Argentina; Emmanuel González, Metropolitan Autonomous University, Xochimilco; 
Fernando Bejarano, of Action Network on Pesticides and Alternatives in Mexico
(Rapam), & Leticia López of National Association of Rural Marketing Companies
(ANEC), all supported the strong decision that SEMARNAT has made on this issue.

The Ministry recently gave its full support to the policy introduced by the Committee
for the urgent attention of environmental issues for the benefit of the health and 
well-being of the Mexican population.  San Vicente Tello said that, together with the
National Council of Science and Technology, she is analyzing alternatives to the use
of glyphosate-herbicides for large-scale agricultural production, as there are many 
weed management experiences with methods that farmers themselves and indigenous
communities have applied for thousands of years.  In addition, government education
campaigns are being prepared with different medias, such as infographics and videos
that will be translated into several languages and will include data and independent
scientific sources on the effects of glyphosate-based herbicides on the environment 
and health, with the purpose of alerting the population to the risks involved from their use. 

                    OPINION:  CANCELED ATLANTIC COAST PIPELINE
                            IS A VICTORY FOR NORTH CAROLINA

Noah Jabusch, Staff Columnist  Jul 15, 2020.  
Just over one week ago, Dominion Energy and Duke Energy announced the 
cancellation of the Atlantic Coast pipeline (ACP), a natural gas pipeline largely
funded by those companies that would transport gas from production sites
in West Virginia to power plants in Virginia and North Carolina.  The pipeline
has been held up for years due to lawsuits by environmental groups and 
campaigns to stop the project from receiving government permits. The costs 
associated with delays and lawsuits pushed the project’s price tag upward and
eventually led to the companies surrendering, citing “legal uncertainties.” … 
Perhaps the largest consequence, and one which everyone should be grateful
for, is the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions that inevitably would have
resulted from burning the natural gas. Without this pipeline, gas will have 
a harder time competing with cheaper, renewable options, which Dominion
and Duke should now focus their resources toward.

                POSSIBLE CAUSES & CARE OPTIONS FOR COVID
          ******************************************************************************
IS THERE SCIENTIFIC CENSORSHIP IN THE STUDY OF COVID-19 ORIGINS?
by IRT News Team | Jul 23, 2020 | 
www.responsibletechnology.org/is-their-scientific-censorship-in-the-study-of-covid-19-origins/?eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=c036eb57-3ff0-4139-af8b-b56161dfbf24  
At the Institute, we don’t take a position on whether the COVID virus came  directly
from animals, or from a laboratory.  We understand that genetic engineering and other l
ab techniques can, theoretically produce such a pathogen.  And we are very curious 
about whether genetic engineering was involved.  What we have discovered, however,
is that there appears to be a censorship campaign underway to suppress scientific
discussion and investigation of possible lab origins. So we’ve put some of the articles
together for you that you may not come across, and allow you to judge for yourself.

These include a completely new theory that uses the translation of an obscure master’s
thesis about a mysterious coronavirus-like disease contracted by miners working among
bats in China. Long but fascinating.  We have links to articles that propose lab origins 
and those that discuss the suppression of scientific inquiry, which we at the Institute 
are all too familiar with, in the arena of GMOs:

A Proposed Origin for SARS-CoV-2 and the COVID-19 Pandemic
Journals censor lab origin theory for SARS-CoV-2 
“Most logical” explanation for SARS-CoV-2 is that it comes from a lab – virologist
