Subject: NASA : Air Traffic Contributing to Climate Change
A research team of American and German scientists, headed by Patrick Minnis
of the NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, reports evidence
that contrails from air traffic cause a warming of the Earth's atmosphere. we
have the story and images on solcomhouse
<A HREF="http://www.solcomhouse.com/Airtraffic.htm">http://www.solcomhouse.com
/Airtraffic.htm</A>
The Goals of solcomhouse are to provide the people of the world housing that
is in sync and in harmony with the environment. Site provides information on
numerous environmental issues, such as solar energy, rainforests, coral
reefs, ozone, global warming, endangered species, recycling, and things you
can do to save the environment.
We are writing you today about our company solcomhouse. We are going to build
environmentally based, solar powered computer connected housing. solcomhouse
will provide housing that gives the people of the world housing that is in
sync and in
harmony with the environment.It has been viewed by people from 106 nations
around the world in the past 9 weeks.Included in these visitors are major
corporations and government agencies, military and security agencies as well
as colleges and universities.Organizations in 12 countries have links to
solcomhouse.

isitors.htm</A>
We started solcomhouse last May and completed the website in October.We are
the reverse internet startup -we are a virtual company hoping to raise funds
to go to a "brick and mortar" operation.
I will give you a quick background on our project.We are planning on having
our first sample home built in the Philadelphia area.We have corresponded
with President Bill Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, Senator Arlen Specter
and Representative Joe Hoeffel to make them aware of our progress and goals
to further publicize our project and get interest from the visiting delegates.
We have contacted over 150 major corporations to join with us by either
advertising on our website or funding us to get started. We have received
only about 25 replies. The only funding we have gotten in the 9 months is 2
coupons from Ben & Jerry's for a pint of free ice cream.We have been told
that we do not fit into their "target market" marketing programs. Saving the
planet and bridging the "digital divide" are not priorities for corporate
America.
On the positive slant our website has been visited by people from over 106
nations in the last 9 weeks. College Professors have let us know they will be
using our site as a teaching resource. By our web logs we have noticed that
across the country and world several K12 schools are accessing our site
several times a day, so we are assuming we have become a resource there as
well.As you can see with the only funding we have recieved,two coupons for
pints of ice cream of Ben & Jerry, we have become a resource world wide.
Our visitors are from the scientific and educational communities.With
funding we could reach the "regular"people of the world- the ones that should
know about this information. Can you imagine the possibilities what
solcomhouse could do with funding?
If You need any more information or have any questions please e-mail or call
me and I will forward more information.
Sincerely,
Charles Welch
