The changes occurring with our biosphere are taking place at an unimaginably exponential rate. In the meantime mainstream media continues to do their best to fortify a sense of normalcy bias in the population. Can the complacency be overturned in time to make a difference? It is imperative for the public to be awakened to the gravity and immediacy of what is unfolding. The latest installment of Global Alert News is below.

The shocking view from my backyard in Northern California, and the scheduled weather is calling for even more heat and drought. Will our families and friends wake to the climate engineering issue? The 2 minute video report below is from the “Mountain Fire”, Shasta County, California, August 22, 2019.

    Make of it what you will, this was in my inbox this morning (and no shooting the messenger– !!!!!!!):

    Last week at the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) summer meeting, a vote to hold a full climate debate was on the agenda — but due to backroom deals and ugly arm-twisting from DNC leadership, it was voted down. This is disappointing news, though not a great surprise. We knew all along that DNC Chair Tom Perez didn’t want a climate debate, and he was working hard for this outcome.

    Even though the DNC vote didn’t go the way we’d hoped, we have a lot to be proud of. Together with partners, we delivered over 500,000 signatures from across the nation directly to the DNC, we got most of the presidential candidates to publicly call for a climate debate, and our pressure significantly grew the number of DNC members in support.

    Now it’s time to build on our momentum with the next big moment — next month’s Global Climate Strikes. On September 20, people of all ages will walk out of their schools and workplaces to join young people in the streets. 

    Join the global #ClimateStrike movement for a historic day of collective action by signing up for an event in your area. Already signed up? Spread the word.

    September 2019 is going to be an epic moment in the fight for the urgent climate action we so desperately need — and we need you to be all in with us!  The global climate strike is set three days before a United Nations Climate Summit in New York City. Adults and youth will take to the streets across the U.S. and the world to demand real, transformative action to address the climate crisis. 

    September 20 is just the beginning. This global day of #ClimateStrike actions will be immediately followed by a powerful Week of Action across the U.S. featuring targeted actions against fossil fuel infrastructure, and our movement will continue to build through the rest of this year and beyond. We’ll follow up with a lot more detail, but we need you in this fight today.

    Sign up for a September 20 #ClimateStrike event in your area, and spread the word far and wide.

    Although the DNC’s power-brokers rejected an official DNC-sponsored climate debate, we’ll be turning our attention to two upcoming televised forums on the climate crisis, starting with a CNN forum on September 4. The more conversation of the climate crisis, the better — but without all candidates onstage at once and with much lower viewership, these forums are not an adequate substitute for a real climate debate. 

    Our leaders won’t deliver climate justice on their own — it’s up to each of us to show up and demonstrate what people power can do. RSVP today. 

    Onward,

    Amanda Mourant
    Digital Director
    Oil Change U.S. 

    P.S. Not seeing a strike listed yet in your area? It's not too late to organize your own.

    Thank you, dear soul…

    I planted several trees in the yard and for a while they flourished…the pears flowered awhile.

    Now the free standing ones…red cedars and one pear, just died. But the one shielded by huge pines is still leafy, but no flowers or fruit. 

    Squirrels, bird, and even palmetto roaches have decreased greatly. We have a little possum under the house who comes out and eats the cat food….I look at it as a family friend.     I'm 72 and have noticed these changes for many years.

    Green tea and wild blueberries…yea, Maine!…bulk organic oats and rice.   Take care of yourselves, folks.

  3. Linda..LS says:

     The fight for the environment was over in CA when IS/MND became common practice of everyone who wanted to build anything. Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration has replaced EIS- Environmental Impact Statements/Reports. Now lawyers write studies that claim..MAY…MIGHT…COULD..but move forward unimpeded dispite possibilities that they ignore, minimize or claim they can mitigate. Mitigate is a curse word. A flat out Lie.

    It gives me no comfort now that people I have informed for years are coming out of the woodwork for the facts in my head. Living next to the desolation wilderness all my life gives me a perspective I wish I didn't have now. I do not know words to convey the pain of watching so much life turn into a horror of states of dying and death….

    Pete. FYI..Your visits and Dr notes are not private. How can you be theorizing about a conspiracy anyway? You are analyzing existing programs..not conspiracies. And on that note I came out and asked the longest practicing local Dr. "Will they stop the spraying?" He said. "No, never…move to New Zealand" He refused to say more. Take care Dane and company….the sane, -in a crazed world.

  4. Ross says:

    Linda..LS ..I totally agree with you.  Current Ca. AG busy promoting open borders.  Previous AG is about corrupt as one gets.  Harris thinks she should be President too.  Really..  Its all about their own agenda and not the People.  All of DC is a sad state of affairs IMO..  Every evening about the same time when im sitting outside the trails in the sky are in the same place.  The rest of the sky is blue but the same area is being manipulated for one reason or another.

    dear dane and family

    cannot stop thinking about you and your precarious and precious home

    hope you are all okay 

    and anyone else who is in danger from  the ravaged environment

    i am constantly thinking about the wonderful people i have been able to share the pain of living at this time in human history

    how my heart breaks in contact with you all

    where ignorance is bliss tis folly to be wise – how i feel that in this well of human madness

    The bad news headlines this week just keep coming.

    Southcentral Alaska is officially in a drought, which has never happened before in modern times.

    The world's most intact temperate rain forest, Alaska's Tongass National Forest, has just been opened for more logging, even as 400,000 acres are still burning in the State.

    The Endangered species Act gutted protections for Alaska's most iconic species, Polar bears, wolves, bears and the rest that will succumb from habitat destruction and hunting without limits.

    Two idiots on Air Force One decided it is perfectly okay to destroy Bristol Bay's incomparable salmon fishery because gold and copper and massive pools of pollution make so much more sense.

     

    And methane is the big winner today, because who needs standards?

    Oh, guess what?  For whatever it's worth, BP British Petroleum is leaving Alaska! 

    Global Research has some real economic statistics, at least.  Now if they would take on the phony job creation numbers and give the actual job cuts and company closures.

  7. Wakai says:

    In the greater Seattle area this summer has been much more cloudy, somewhat wet and  cooler than the last 3 summers and yes I have been keeping records of the weather and what not around here because I grow trees that I plant for restoration purposes and unpaid cause it is my hobby. I recently just got cut off from many family members due to my “conspiracy theory’s” about how our political elites are more than disgusting sexual abusers of underaged persons such as Epstein and those who frequented his island and associated with him and how the banking elite control most of human society. Guess I’m just crazy and a conspiracy theorist. Whatever I care about this thing called the Truth and the future of our planet and my family response and many others is well just worry about getting a good job and don’t think about things you can’t change or those things I listed earlier aren’t true and I’m just crazy. Well look up at the sky on a clear day. Sorry I took the red pill and I’m not going to live a lie while my world dies…

    • Bonnie Crawford says:

      I totally relate to what you're saying, Wakai! I don't know if people have lost their curiosity, their critical thinking skills, or both. Your family's response is exactly the same as my husband's.  It is hurtful, frustrating, and discouraging, but the reality, I'm afraid.  All best to you – at least I know quite a few FB friends who are awake and aware, and that's a little encouraging.

    • penny waters says:

      dear wakai

      separated from the environment as most people are – they have no clue and spend time getting involved in perversity

      tis a sad species – the human species – my friend who loves trees as i do

    • Robert says:

      No you are not crazy! All of this or some part of all the manipulation has been going on for many many years. Be it chem trails, experiments on out soldiers. Evil runs deep. As for spraying it is now worse than ever. Watch a movie or TV show that shows sky. Trails are all over the place look at the U.K. too many to count. My question is do they spray over Russia? What can be done to stop this ? 

    • Dane Wigington says:

      Hello, Robert, yes, is the answer to your question about Russia. About how to help in this battle, detailed activist suggestions can be found on the home page of GeoengineeringWatch.org Thank yo for your willingness to help sound the alarm.

    Excerpted from Xavier Becerra's web page: THE ISSUES – Xavier Becerra

     

    Protecting the Environment

     

    "Xavier is committed to tackling climate change, making our drinking water safe and our air clean. He seeks to protect vulnerable populations, while working to ensure a sustainable climate.

     

    Today as Attorney General for California, Xavier has led a coalition of states to stop the Administration’s effort to ease restrictions on methane emissions. He has sued the Environmental Protection Agency for failing to provide documents he requested on whether EPA Secretary Scott Pruitt has a conflict of interest in making environmental decisions. He has challenged the EPA’s illegal delay of important air quality standards. And much more.

     

    With oversight and enforcement of two critical state environmental laws—the California Environmental Quality Act and the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, Xavier also investigates and prosecutes civil and criminal violations of environmental laws on behalf of the state and client agencies."

     

    https://xavierbecerra.com/issues/

     

    There are States Attorneys General in all State jurisdictions in the United States.  I've posted various methods in which States Attorneys General can work with FILED affidavits toward enforcement and prosecution of criminal activities.  The release of geoengineering chemicals into our common environments is (by law) a criminal assault upon civilian populations.  It is up to the public to file criminal charges and notify States Attorneys Generals with written affidavits… There is no other Lawful method to stop the criminal activities of these ghouls.

    • Linda..LS says:

      Certainly you have called out the former AG of CA, right? CA is a completely failed experiment in governance in my residency of 40 years. Guilt enough to cover all electeds on all levels is what is left of CA. A++ in failure.

    • L.T. says:

      RIGHT ON Linda LS !!! 100% correct ! I was born and raised in Northern California, it is tearable what California has become. 

  9. Jason says:

    5G Summit very informative.  one of the things I learned is that another draught-causing action of geo-engineering is that the aluminum fallout from chemtrails is majorly reducing evaporation from ocean surface.

    • Melissa says:

      I too have been listening to the 5G summit very informative. I find it interesting that they need trees to be gone for the 5G technology to work. Just another piece in the puzzle of insanity.

    • Sandy Patrus says:

      How about this article I read recently from Waking Times by Dr. Debra Greene PhD: Giant 5G Drones are Being Planned for the Skies Over Hawaii then the World.  I was unable to send the link, so you will have to look it up, but if this actually happens, we won't be able to escape it by moving to the country.  This is insane…no wonder they want the trees gone.

  10. David says:

    Hello everyone. I'm here in Orlando, FL. Just heard a report from the paid liars at NPR (yet another news source I used to trust) that Tropical Storm Dorian is due to hit Puerto Rico. Then it will make its way to Florida's east coast. I feel almost silly even asking, but do we think this one is being steered? When NPR says it WILL (no may, might or could) hit PR and FL…I get nervous and think of those monsters deciding who gets which devastation. Any thoughts, insight, ideas? Anyone in Florida?

    • Mary Hollowell says:

      Yes, hurricanes are steered, and activist Maciej Kocialkowski is in West Florida. https://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/engineered-climate-cataclysm-hurricane-harvey/

    • Gary Morrow says:

      The latest advisory from the NHC as of 11 a.m. AST says Orlando has a 32 percent chance of sustained hurricane force winds during the next five days. The threat to South Florida appears to be increasing while the threat to Central Florida holds steady. Search National Hurricane Center wind probabilities.The storm is forecast to make a turn to the left (west) and strike Florida during astronomical high tide, which is suspicious to me.

  11. Ken Byers says:

    Hello Dane, is there going to be a presentation this year like there was last October? 

    • Dane Wigington says:

      Hello, Ken, thank you for yoru inquiry on Geoegineering Watch events. I will have an important update on this subject in the next broadcast.

  12. Dennie says:

    This was in my inbox this morning:

    Here's President Trump's leadership on the climate crisis: missing

    President Trump's empty chair at the G7 meeting on climate change with global leaders yesterday

     

    As the Amazon rainforest burns and glaciers melt, President Trump isn't just missing meetings about climate change with global leaders — he's actively putting forward policies that make the emergency worse. 

     

    That's why Xavier's work holding him accountable is so important.  

    While President Trump attacks the environment, we're turning to the courts as our planet's line of defense. In California, where we've seen the devastating effects of mudslides, wildfires, and flooding, we're not about to walk out the door. 

    Xavier has filed 27 environmental lawsuits and secured 19 key wins (so far) to stop the President's reckless environmental policies, with many cases ongoing.

    But the clock is ticking — we need to take action NOW. That's why we're asking, Dennie: 

    Can you help us meet our deadline and contribute $5 today? Xavier is fighting for our planet — and taking Trump to court.

    President Trump might be sitting out of this fight, but we aren't. 

    Thank you for joining us, 

    Team Becerra

    YES, they ask for your money.  NO, that is not "bad."  IT MEANS THEY WANT TO GET THEIR POWER FROM THE PEOPLE, NOT THE PACS.  Some of our politicians are really trying hard to get away from the Dirty Money of past politics.  They should not be criticized for trying.   

    • Dennie says:

      MORE elected representation is going in the same direction now.  From Michael Mann, Ph.D:  

      "I’ve spent my career sounding the alarm on climate change and the Republican effort to obstruct climate action. And today, I’m proud to endorse John Hickenlooper for U.S. Senate in Colorado.

      But the first week of any campaign is critical to its success — That’s why a group of generous donors has agreed to TRIPLE MATCH all donations to help John Hickenlooper’s campaign for Senate by the end of the day.

      Hick’s not taking a dime of corporate PAC money — He’s relying on us. 

      As a scientist, Hick’s serious about addressing climate change — He’s also the ONLY CHANCE we have at unseating Cory Gardner, flipping the Senate, and removing climate-obstructionist Mitch McConnell from power.

      Climate change denial isn’t due to a lack of understanding. It’s an orchestrated campaign being waged by the fossil fuel industry, Donald Trump, and his allies — like Cory Gardner who votes with Trump nearly 90% of the time.

      As Governor of Colorado, Hickenlooper passed the first methane regulations in the country and led efforts to ensure that Colorado will meet or exceed Paris Agreement targets.

      With Hick in the Senate, we’ll be one step closer to dealing with our climate crisis and putting fact and reason above partisan politics."

       

      Grassroots funding is seeing the kind of growth that was never before possible, thanks to the internet.  These people at least appear to be sincere in their intention of avoiding taking tainted PAC money.  

  13. V. Susan Ferguson says:

    ENDOCRINE DISRUPTING CHEMICALS
    Endocrine disruptors interfere with development and reproduction, and may cause serious neurological and immune-system effects. Such chemicals are common in personal care products, cleaning products, non-stick cookware, plastics, and more. Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are also frequently found in canned goods, pesticides, and even cash-register receipts.
    A 2006 analysis of Center for Disease Control (CDC) data found an extraordinary increase in risk to type II diabetes as a function of exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs), in particular synthetic organic chemicals such as organohalogens.
    Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are organic compounds that are resistant to environmental degradation through chemical, biological, and photolytic processes.  Because of their persistence, POPs bioaccumulate with potential adverse impacts on human health and the environment. The effect of POPs on human and environmental health was discussed, with intention to eliminate or severely restrict their production, by the international community at the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants in 2001.
    Many POPs are currently or were in the past used as pesticides, solvents, pharmaceuticals, and industrial chemicals.

    BPA
    Some may say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but do you really want a chemical used in plastics imitating the sex hormone estrogen in your body? No! Unfortunately, this synthetic hormone can trick the body into thinking it’s the real thing – and the results aren’t pretty. BPA has been linked to everything from breast and others cancers to reproductive problems, obesity, early puberty and heart disease, and according to government tests, 93 percent of Americans have BPA in their bodies!
    How to avoid it? Go fresh instead of canned – many food cans are lined with BPA – or research which companies don’t use BPA or similar chemicals in their products.  … Bisphenol A (BPA) is an organic synthetic compound with the chemical formula (CH3)2C(C6H4OH)2 belonging to the group of diphenylmethane derivatives and bisphenols, with two hydroxyphenyl groups. It is a colorless solid that is soluble in organic solvents, but poorly soluble in water (0.344 wt % at 83 °C[2]).
    BPA is a starting material for the synthesis of plastics, primarily certain polycarbonates and epoxy resins, as well as some polysulfones and certain niche materials. BPA-based plastic is clear and tough, and is made into a variety of common consumer goods, such as plastic bottles including water bottles, sports equipment, CDs, and DVDs. Epoxy resins containing BPA are used to line water pipes, as coatings on the inside of many food and beverage cans and in making thermal paper such as that used in sales receipts.[3] In 2015, an estimated 4 million tonnes of BPA chemical were produced for manufacturing polycarbonate plastic, making it one of the highest volume of chemicals produced worldwide.[4]
    BPA is a xenoestrogen, exhibiting estrogen-mimicking, hormone-like properties[5] that raise concern about its suitability in some consumer products and food containers. Since 2008, several governments have investigated its safety, which prompted some retailers to withdraw polycarbonate products. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has ended its authorization of the use of BPA in baby bottles and infant formula packaging, based on market abandonment, not safety.[6] The European Union and Canada have banned BPA use in baby bottles.

    Dioxin
    Dioxins are multi-taskers… but not in a good way! They form during many industrial processes when chlorine or bromine are burned in the presence of carbon and oxygen. Dioxins can disrupt the delicate ways that both male and female sex hormone signaling occurs in the body. This is a bad thing! Here’s why: Recent research has shown that exposure to low levels of dioxin in the womb and early in life can both permanently affect sperm quality and lower the sperm count in men during their prime reproductive years. But that’s not all! Dioxins are very long-lived, build up both in the body and in the food chain, are powerful carcinogens and can also affect the immune and reproductive systems.
    How to avoid it? That’s pretty difficult, since the ongoing industrial release of dioxin has meant that the American food supply is widely contaminated. Products including meat, fish, milk, eggs and butter are most likely to be contaminated, but you can cut down on your exposure by eating fewer animal products.

    Atrazine
    What happens when you introduce highly toxic chemicals into nature and turn your back? For one thing, feminization of male frogs. That’s right, researchers have found that exposure to even low levels of the herbicide atrazine can turn male frogs into females that produce completely viable eggs. Atrazine is widely used on the majority of corn crops in the United States, and consequently it’s a pervasive drinking water contaminant. Atrazine has been linked to breast tumors, delayed puberty and prostate inflammation in animals, and some research has linked it to prostate cancer in people.
    How to avoid it? Buy organic produce …

    Phthalates
    Did you know that a specific signal programs cells in our bodies to die? It’s totally normal and healthy for 50 billion cells in your body to die every day! But studies have shown that chemicals called phthalates can trigger what’s known as “death-inducing signaling” in testicular cells, making them die earlier than they should. Yep, that’s cell death – in your man parts. If that’s not enough, studies have linked phthalates to hormone changes, lower sperm count, less mobile sperm, birth defects in the male reproductive system, obesity, diabetes and thyroid irregularities.
    How to avoid it? A good place to start is to avoid plastic food containers, children’s toys (some phthalates are already banned in kid’s products), and plastic wrap made from PVC, which has the recycling label #3. Some personal care products also contain phthalates, so read the labels and avoid products that simply list added “fragrance,” since this catch-all term sometimes means hidden phthalates.

    Perchlorate
    Who needs food tainted with rocket fuel?! That’s right, perchlorate, a component in rocket fuel, contaminates much of our produce and milk, according to EWG and government test data. When perchlorate gets into your body it competes with the nutrient iodine, which the thyroid gland needs to make thyroid hormones. Basically, this means that if you ingest too much of it you can end up altering your thyroid hormone balance. This is important because it’s these hormones that regulate metabolism in adults and are critical for proper brain and organ development in infants and young children.
    How to avoid it? You can reduce perchlorate in your drinking water by installing a reverse osmosis filter. (You can get help finding one at: http://www.ewg.org/report/ewgs-water-filter-buying-guide) As for food, it’s pretty much impossible to avoid perchlorate, but you can reduce its potential effects on you by making sure you are getting enough iodine in your diet. Eating iodized salt is one good way.

    Perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs)

     

    The perfluorinated chemicals used to make non-stick cookware can stick to you. Perfluorochemicals are so widespread and extraordinarily persistent that 99 percent of Americans have these chemicals in their bodies. One particularly notorious compound called PFOA has been shown to be “completely resistant to biodegradation.” In other words, PFOA doesn’t break down in the environment – ever. That means that even though the chemical was banned after decades of use, it will be showing up in people’s bodies for countless generations to come. This is worrisome, since PFOA exposure has been linked to decreased sperm quality, low birth weight, kidney disease, thyroid disease and high cholesterol, among other health issues. Scientists are still figuring out how PFOA affects the human body, but animal studies have found that it can affect thyroid and sex hormone levels.
    How to avoid it? Skip non-stick pans as well as stain and water-resistant coatings on clothing, furniture and carpets.

    Organophosphate pesticides
    Neurotoxic organophosphate compounds that the Nazis produced in huge quantities for chemical warfare during World War II were luckily never used. After the war ended, American scientists used the same chemistry to develop a long line of pesticides that target the nervous systems of insects. Despite many studies linking organophosphate exposure to effects on brain development, behavior and fertility, they are still among the more common pesticides in use today. A few of the many ways that organophosphates can affect the human body include interfering with the way testosterone communicates with cells, lowering testosterone and altering thyroid hormone levels.

      Thanks Susan.  I once knew a woman who was planning to write a book on human endocrine disruption and the environmental consequences of petrochemical plastics.  After 11 years of research and study, she concluded that all "Environmental Protection" was a sick joke, and that humans deserved the results of their follies.  It was sad to see her abandon all hope… 

      Civilians (and chemists) don't care about environmental consequences when these products are incinerated…

       

      Excerpted from: Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene – Wikipedia 

      Uses 

      "Polyurethanes prepared from HTPB can be engineered for specific physical properties; polyurethanes may be highly elastic or tough and rigid. Some products include: rigid foam insulation panels; durable elastomeric wheels and tires (used for roller coasters, escalators, skateboards, etc.); automotive suspension bushings; electrical potting compounds; high-performance adhesives; surface coatings and surface sealants; synthetic fibers (e.g., Spandex); carpet underlay; hard-plastic parts (e.g., for electronic instruments). 

      An important application of HTPB is in solid rocket propellant. It binds the oxidizing agent and other ingredients into a solid but elastic mass. The cured polyurethane acts as a fuel in such mixtures. For example, HTPB is used in all 3/4 stages of the Japanese M-5 rocket satellite launchers and PSLV rocket developed by ISRO for satellite launches. JAXA describes the propellant as "HTPB/AP/Al=12/68/20", which means, proportioned by mass, HTPB plus curative 12% (binder and fuel), ammonium perchlorate 68% (oxidizer), and aluminum powder 20% (fuel).

    Some research shows that fracking has not made money in all this time. So, of course they are doubling down, even as it destroys ground waters, lands, homes, air, etc.  It is also said that its main use is for plastics!!  This has become apparent to me and explains much, as in much more plastic than ever, thicker than ever, overkill–even as the whole world remarks how damaging to the environment, waters, fish, our own bodies too!  This fossil fuel mania reeks of addiction.  We did once survive with no plastic, I do remember!

  15. Sandy Patrus says:

    Like Dane, I believe that no matter how hard the truth is to swallow, we must not sugar coat it as to not upset someone.  Two years ago I became friends with someone who at one time in her life was a big activist.  She was telling me last week that I must vote even if I don't believe in the system anymore.  I told her it was all bullshit and she got angry.  She also does not believe that geoengineering is going on…she says it is all climate change even though I gave her one of Dane's flyers to read one time and also pointed out the skies to her on numerous occasions when when they were heavily sprayed.  When I told her we didn't have much time left on this planet she didn't want to hear it….she said she only wanted to hear positive things, nothing negative.  How the hell was she ever a Psychologist at one time if she never wants to hear negative things!   Anyway, I became friends with her because I thought we had so much in common but finding out now that we really don't.  You can't just keep putting this out of your mind because the truth is too hard to bare.

      This is  a positive site for change for the better good of all mankind. Are we so stupid that telling the truth and trying   to fix it is bad?  Everyone needs to wake up and stop being in denial.  Most of the posts on this blog educate the public about alot of stuff for the GREATER GOOD.

      People like that are definitely frustrating to deal with on this topic for sure, Sandy. My advice from what I've experienced with friends and family is to keep chipping away at it. Do the best you can to not get the friend's defenses up or bring any emotion into the talk whatsoever. Ask questions like "Why did we not see skies like this in the past?", "Why are there hundreds of govt documents talking about this? What's up with all the patents that talk about spraying megatons of nanoparticulates into the sky to create a silvery canopy to combat global warming…. doesn't that seem like exactly what we see in the sky now?" "How can 'condensation' linger like that and expand exponentially larger than the planes that left the trail when the engines on those planes only heat up about 10% of the air flowing through them (the highbypass turbofan jet engines)"…. etc etc. Ask questions. Spur interest. The best thing you can do with people like this is keep repeating factual data and information and leave it at that for them to ponder. Any kind of verbal back and forth that isn't sought by them ends up being counterproductive at a certain point in my experience.

      i never used to vote until a gentleman told me that he always votes but spoils the paper

      so now – as we have paper votes in the uk – i always write on it – none of the above – someone will read it – and it is registered as i went to vote

      we have numbers on our paper so the government can track who has voted what

      i have to protest somehow!!!!!

      Au contraire, mon amie, we do in fact have people in very high places that DO know what's going on– witness Governor of California Gavin Newsome.  There is a Global Alert News program where Dane talks about his meeting with then A.G. of CA Newsome.  I think we could use a refresher on that one, a re-run would be great ;-).  In the meantime, do you know anything that can help him and other elected representation to STOP this insanity, other than shouting in this very specialized forum htere that everyone needs to follow the rule of law?  Really?  Because we are talking about CRIMINALS here.

    How people around us are so hopelessly brainwashed by this system it truly is shocking beyond belief!

    Cut a long story short, after much effort with all those around me to no or very little avail yet over last two years, in the workplace as result I am now being forced to see a professional at a clinic for psychological help under threat of disciplinary procedures if did not agree and been told to not speak my ‘beliefs’ anymore!

    All info refused of course and these people won’t even look at the sky – what will it take!

    First appointment is tomorrow – doubt will end well coz no one is going to convince me to ignore reality whatever happens!

    And how this insane asylum has everything in place with people we’re trying to help enforcing the control…

      It's not worth it Pete. Take this job and shove it! I aint working here no more!

    • Sandy Patrus says:

      Hi Pete, you are not the one who needs the psysocological help, they do!  Either they know you are telling the truth and do not want this truth out there so instead you are considered the crazy one who needs help.  Or they are truly brainwashed themselves.  Be careful though, they might try to brainwash you.  I was told several years ago by a friend I have had for many years, who lives in another state, that she was concerned about my mental health after seeing what I posted on FB.  I no longer am on FB because of how they demonized anyone who was trying to tell the truth.  What they are doing now is turning the tables on anyone who tries to tell the truth….you are the one who needs your head examined.  I am thoroughly sick of what is happening to this world.  If you are a mindless order follower, who can't think for themselves, you will do well in society.  Anyone questioing authority or the status quo will end up in a mental hospital….this is what this country is coming to. I have a friend who is a retired psychologist and she does not believe anything is going on and starting to question my beliefs.  I would rather be a loner than to have these kinds of friends.  It is so wrong on every level that in order to keep your job today you have to keep your mouth shut…not allowed to have your own opinion.  I told my family I won't live like that…it is not my beliefs and I will not let anyone try to change my way of thinking.  Several years ago I woke up to the reality of what has really been going on since the beginning of time.  We have been living a lie our whole lives.  Everything we have been taught is a lie…the whole political system is a lie. This planet is an experiment and we are the guinea pigs.  My family thinks I am completely insane but what they don't know is I am truly the only sane one.

    • Daniel says:

      My take on the situation is this. Move on from the people here you've been trying to convince. It's a lost cause. Many people are so brainwashed, so close minded, so indoctrinated and so caught up in the societal nut house that they won't take a second to look up from their smart phone, put down their pharma pill bottle, or stop shoving toxin/brain altering crap in their mouths. They aren't worth your time. Share with them credible, printed data, tell them you're available to talk about this topic if they have any questions, and move on. 

      There are too many people out there who if they only had a source of credible information would quickly realize the situation we're in. Try and reach out to THOSE people. At this point, the more you try and beat these other close minded ones over the head with the reality in our skies the more they'll close off and persecute you. They're not worth the effort at this point.

      Just my 2 cents. 

    • 'a' simple horseman says:

      Pete, I'm sorry I am writing this after your first appointment for evaluation. You've stepped into a mighty big pile of you know what. Here's my take on activism "at work". First off, having a payroll job means that you agreed that the time on the clock is not yours. It belongs to the company. It is your duty to honor that agreement. Your thoughts and efforts must pertain to the tasks you have been given. I fear that if you have been sent to be evaluated for reasons of future dismissal. We all must maintain our means of support. You have crossed a line of your own honor. "Don't be a pest". Mr Chamberlain wrote "take this job and shove it". I also notice that he doesn't post much activism efforts anymore. That cut off also coincided with a change in business. Glad he is now happier but am sad he has been less active, awareness wise, than he once was. It's OK I wrote that. If Mr Chamberlain has a problem with it, he will give me a call. (Hope he does. I haven't talked to him in a while). He's got my number. But as for a "job", the topic at hand. The infamous "they" want us truthers to take a nose dive, fall off a wagon, shoot ourselves in the foot. A wise executive I once worked for said, "if you don't like the way the game is played. Learn to play it better than anyone else". Thank you Lord for how far those wise words from long ago have taken me. Bottom line is, it is unwise to put yourself in great jeopardy. If you lose the battle, you will become less effective. It is best to be a smart lil fox.

      Love and strength to you Pete

    • Dennie says:

      Knowing the facts of climate engineering and how massive the programs are, as well as the equally massive cover-up, is a really burdensome thing.  You don't say how long it's been since you first knew about this but I remember wanting to tell everyone around me about it– Don'tReally.  Unless you really do want to lose your job, don't need the income and insist on being right, even when you are.  There is a time and place for these talks but I would really not do that while at work.  Okay, you can go ahead, shout from the rooftops while at work about all the particulars of this evil program, but don't expect to win the "hearts and minds" of your co-workers.  Even when you know you're right, unless you like being unemployed, save the soap box for the appropriate times and places, like the open mic portion of weekly city hall meetings.  Get your city to declare itself a "geoengineering-free zone."  As for all those people you're annoyed with for not listening/understanding/believing you:  People just aren't going to learn until they are ready.  If they're not finished sleeping, don't pound on them to wake them up.  TAKE THIS ADVICE OR IGNORE IT AT YOUR OWN PERIL:  DO NOT CAST PEARLS BEFORE SWINE.  You're winning battles while losing the war– who has ever been a help for operating that way???

    • Pete says:

      Thank You all for support and great words, I knew people here would certainly understand.

      The first appointment, well assessment of my mind, went ok, sort of, I chose my words carefully and would not say the main thing of huge importance that is on my mind but hinted a little and asked her questions, like does it not occur to people the environmental collapse that is unfolding such as the fires in Amazon of late and why is it nobody really wants to even talk about the climate change they do tell us about! She had no reply to those moral questions!

      Ended with her recommending further counseling having said in her experience I come across as angry, well yes, having gone there in the first place which I said to begin with I do not want to be here but have been forced just so we’re clear on that! I spoke of my frustration and disillusionment of so many around me who just do not want to know about anything that truly matters and refuse all information offered and said it’s a duty I feel and therefore job has admittedly suffered as pressure has built; at least she said feeling a duty is commendable followed by patronizing remarks, like asking if I’m paranoid and used word ‘conspiracy’ maybe trying to get me to say exactly what I was talking about and to respect others opinions  (if only knew the lengths I have gone to at work, treading carefully most the time, looking for angle in and planting so many seeds) and even asked if I hear voices or think about hurting others. I answered accordingly but held back as could tell she is not the sort of person who was going to understand, like they want someone to imply they are ‘crazy’ and then gave me form to fill in on how I am feeling, I refused that form of such ridiculous questions! Oh and they get paid for further counseling so in their interest I do believe, damn, in this system, prison is even big business as are more sick and dying people with mental health etc and if work do want rid of me they’ll use it later if dare say too much again or have problems conforming!

      I will try my best to give up on those people around me and shut my mouth at work especially. But when I see so clearly the insanity up there before work, on way in and through the day so often, knowing what I do it does affect me and very hard to be in big office all day as probably the only one seeing this who cares; I feel trapped and alone I suppose and for few weeks all did become too much along with so much corporate nonsense! Why should we not state the blinding obvious and what we’ve learned out of concern for all and say it how it is – mind boggling isn’t it really!

      I’ve made enough aware at work and sadly nearly all just don't want to have their fake bubble of reality interfered with I guess and some gossip about me behind my back, but seeds are out there and are a few who do agree but yet to really understand so that is down to them – I had real hopes to begin with that people might just care, how deluded I was!

      Not any better outside of work as I’ve lost many so called old friends and family but no matter what is said, with few exceptions who do get it but also yet to do anything, no one is going to make me give up on what is right, even if means being jobless and/or homeless, but if think going to label me as ‘crazy’ when they are so brainwashed, nope, not having that, guess I can live with the angry label, well if not angry at all going on in this world and stuff we have to deal with, then really must be something wrong with you!

      Over last two years, digging down a very deep hole has of course been very eye opening, I already knew the world is messed up, then realized exactly how much, as I have learned how deeply this system has conditioned the minds of so many. But what really gets me aside from the enormous level of ignorance and denial, is the lack of curiosity in most people, that won’t even look at the sky and the lack of vision for a better world and on the odd ray of hope speaking to someone open, often follows with, well nothing we can do so why worry – what a job this system and those in power have done, we truly do live in an insane asylum, where those who try expose that fact with good intentions are the ones treated as ‘crazy’ – very backwards indeed!

      So grateful for Dane, people on here and many others I am in contact with all over the world, many wonderful souls who collectively at some point with all of our combined efforts and what is blatantly happening up there increasingly so, has got to tip the balance of awareness, surely, and of course unfolding cataclysms will make sure it does, however things pan out!

      In the end, we can say we tried in whatever way we could, despite so much heartache and resistance but never gave up and we are human so going to suffer! I can live with that, ignoring this dire reality I cannot…

      how can nature save us from the unconscious people who are destroying everything around us

    I just want to share some experiences with spreading awareness for those who are reading to hopefully spur some ideas or give some people leads to encourage others. In no way trying to bring any attention to what I'm doing other than to emphasize how EASY and QUICK it can be to make a difference. We ALL can do this. It's not hard at all, and we have the ability to reach many, many people.

    First off, get some bumper stickers on your car. There are bumper sticker websites out there that give you the ability to make an eye catching one (or two, or five) that lead back to Geoengineeringwatch.org. Ones that catch people's attention, make them contemplate what they're seeing, and encourage them to research more. Get creative. These DO work. There are many out there that are on to the oligarchs, but don't have a direction to turn to with credible information. People look at these as they're sitting behind you in traffic and look the website up. I've seen it happen in real time. There is a thirst for good info today… and slapping a few stickers on your car is the easiest thing you can do.

    Can't emphasize enough, get on to this site and get the awareness raising materials off of it. Dedicating $25-30 to get some high quality informational flyers (which are extremely well done, btw… and very effective), informational booklets,  bumper stickers, business cards with info, dvds is nothing. People go out to dinner and spend three times that much in one night. It's a great idea to dedicate that much every few months (or more, given how much info you manage to hand out) and get this stuff into circulation. Awareness raising is exponential. You tell one person a day for a month. Those people take it seriously and tell one person per day for a month. On and on and on and by the end of the month, millions are aware and have credible information at their fingertips.

    Write up an email on Microsoft Word with credible links leading back to frontline information. Links to the Geoengineering patents, government documents, videos of planes spraying, videos off Dane's youtube channel, videos of the whistleblowers that have come out, links to governments talking about geoengineering, links to the congressional hearings, etc etc. Write out a format that gives the basics, save the document, and copy/paste it into an email and email as many people as you can. Go onto university websites, look up that university's atmospheric sciences department and email all the contacts there. Get creative.

    If you sell on ebay, poshmark, or any of the online sites, stick informational flyers in there when you make a sale. I've done this, and have managed to get hundreds and hundreds into circulation.

    Create your own Geoengineering awareness raising bumper stickers in bulk and sell them on ebay to get them out there. People do buy them. Slap "Geoengineeringwatch.org" on them and lead them here.

    Set up your own awareness raising booth like those on this link do and hand out flyers and talk to people.

    Share links on your facebook. Drop a few words on the "Extinction Rebellion" posts with links leading back to Geoengineeringwatch.org. Heck, search out all posts made on facebook that talk about the climate and where we're headed and posts comments linking back to here. SO MANY OPTIONS FOR PEOPLE WHO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.

    Please. Do not give up. There are so many things we can do. Please don't let others put out your fire and let them make you feel that learned helplessness that the idiots in power want you to feel. Do not give up or give in. This fight isn't over yet.

    President Donald Trump has reportedly suggested dropping nuclear bombs into hurricanes to stop them from causing damage to the US..According to Axios, Trump suggested the idea during a hurricane briefing at the White House, saying something along the lines of: "They start forming off the coast of Africa, as they're moving across the Atlantic, we drop a bomb inside the eye of the hurricane and it disrupts it. Why can't we do that? 

    It's called HAARP Mr President..

    Dane and ALL, Wow, what a day it has been today. 3 days of tending an awareness booth can take it out of ya. I trucked in water today and that was about all I accomplished. Interesting how there is a big part of me that wishes I could tend a booth every day. It's the only time I feel like I am doing what I should be doing. I want to add in another thank you to the ones I already wrote down below here. The folks at the Garlic Festival were a very different crowd compared to the usual farmers market patrons. The festival folks were so much more in tune and were happy to come across credible info. I look forward to seeing them again. In this journey I am on for raising awareness to Geo engineering, every once in a while I am rewarded for my efforts. On Thursday I was invited to be at our local park on Friday and Saturday. I arrived a half an hour before the Festival opened and had a limited choice of spaces to choose from. Low and behold there was a space right under an old Birch tree right next to my neighbor and good friend at the farmers market. Some things were just meant to be. Our city park is a little over 100 years old and has the trees to prove it. They are magnificent and well placed. Someone had some good foresight. They all get to put their tap roots down into the water table of the river flowing next to the park. I was sheltered from the light rain on Friday and shaded on a beautiful Saturday. I also got to witness a performance of our local "circus camp kids". Basically kids doing cart wheels and jumping through hoops and landing with a summer salt. It was to funny, a whole bunch of other kids joined in and the show was on. They all had so much fun performing for any that were watching. The good lord knows how much I cherish children. Nothing I enjoy more than watching active, creative and innocent kids. Sometimes it's OK to live in the moment and share the joy. Those kids future will be so messed up it's incomprehensible. If my children and grandchildren get to live to be as old as I am now, my efforts will have not been in vein. I wrote before, "I don't know what else to do". Well… I don't. I've never been a public personality and never wanted to be. Looking back, ignorance was pretty dang bliss. But the more I asked questions about what I was seeing with my own eyes the further I went down the rabbit hole. and the more I realized the urgency of raising awareness. It was time to put aside my 'self' and step up to what we all are confronted with globally. The only reason Geo engineering exists is because of the want for profit and it falls into the category of "at any cost". It is good to know that I will never hate this song. I 'did' do something. Please join me and many others. "Make your voice heard". https://youtu.be/BHeHiH72L5M

    From the article cited: > "The borrower is the servant of the lender, and through the mechanism of government debt virtually the entire planet has become the servants of the global money changers. All politicians love to borrow money, but over time government debt slowly but surely impoverishes a nation. As the elite get governments around the globe in increasing amounts of debt, those governments must raise taxes in order to keep servicing those debts. In the end, it is all about taking money from us and transferring it into government pockets, and then taking money from government pockets and transferring it into the hands of the elite. It is a game that has been going on for generations, and it is time for humanity to say that enough is enough." [End quote]

    My 284th email, titled 'Climate Chaos within 15 months. Wildfires

    When will they lob 200 nukes down volcano cones to initiate the 2 year nuclear volcanic winter to refreeze the Arctic (and Antarctic)? This has nothing to do with a nuclear war, although that could be used as a distraction.

    The ongoing intensive, toxic (and therefore extremely profitable for those companies whose business model relies on disease and ill health) geoengineering and atmospheric spraying has delayed the nuclear option by over 6 years. However, because it is a covert operation, the general public has carried on with 'business as usual' and nothing has been achieved to prevent climate catastrophe and our extinction.

    Everyone is talking about the huge wildfires in the Amazon, but they are only 3rd in the league of wildfires in the last 48hrs or so: Weather Source has recorded 6,902 fires in Angola over the past 48 hours, compared to 3,395 in the Democratic Republic of Congo and 2,127 in Brazil. Plus the wildfires in most countries around the world, such as Alaska, Canada, Siberia, Indonesia, Spain, Greece, Australia, etc, etc.

    Globally there were 780,506 wildfire alerts between 17 – 24 Aug.

    We currently have a huge cyclone in the Arctic (specifically the Canadian archipelago) which will cause increased Arctic sea ice melt. Another storm system is approaching Iceland. 

    Over 3 weeks to go until the usual annual Arctic sea ice minimum.

      Today turned out actually to be a nice day weather-wise here in the North Bay Area (no insanely baking/sizzling hot sun or air, so far), so I stayed away from the accustomed Sunday morning visit to the patriarchy and set about my morning chores, thinking ahead to what I'd like to see.  After taking the brunt of a dramatic surprise raging outburst after choir practice a week ago last Thursday, in which I was quite wrongly implicated as a "person of interest" in a case of a missing clothes hamper (!?!!–???) I decided it best to take a break from church and explore other denominations and parishes that are more actively engaged in changing the way things are right here, right now.  St. Luke's Presbyterian church in San Rafael has active volunteer ministries in feeding the homeless and caring for the children and families at the nearby public elementary school and a whole lot of other stuff.  So I've decided it's time to a place or just establish what I hope to be a coalition of environmental activists who continually keep our elected representatives apprised of what's happening overhead and rubbing their noses in reality as necessary, among other things.  If it's really true that the pen is mightier than the sword then it cannot hurt to have a group of scattered, disseminated individuals that keeps on writing to these people every single day.

    Dane and ALL, I would like to express a few "thank you's" to those that are consistently "taking it to the streets". Top of the list in my book is Dane and company. Then Gem Faire. They stand up an awareness booth inside of their own business, week after week after week. Thank you my friends I have met. And thank you to the awesome person at this weeks Gem Faire awareness booth. Glad you could make it. Thank you to the folks that translate GW material into Spanish. I'm sorry I forgot your names. Thank you Maciej for being out there available to the public just like I am 'and' for producing awareness videos in two languages. Thank you to everyone that paid for and put up bill boards. Thank you to all of you that have the knack for writing to our public officials. Thank you to everyone that carries flyers in their vehicles. "Together" we ALL are making a difference, a dent in their armor, a chance for hope that we may yet salvage something of what was once yours and my beautiful home/planet. More and more I'm getting folks that stop by because they have a friend that's "really into this stuff". Since the booth somewhat resembles and functions as a drive through, I make sure those folks get the "full meal deal"(grin).

    This morning I actually got up in time to listen to this weeks broadcast live on the radio. Ok, honestly, I only caught the last 40 minutes. So after I have finished writing this. I will listen to this weeks broadcast in its entirety. It's just not the same if you don't listen the the "lead in" portion of the program. Dane, you set a good stage for truth. I just finished 3 dedicated days in a row of tending my awareness booth. I am happy to report that I was super busy all 3 days and my voice is pretty sore. I'll write more tomorrow. I have a few things to contribute in regards to this weekends events here in Tonasket, WA. Lastly here, I want you folks to know that you'd be proud of how I carry your contributions through into my relations with the public. I live in a little corner of rural WA state, USA Inc. You ALL make my view of the world much broader than would be otherwise possible. Thank you.

    Jeff Bezos is the owner of the daily newspaper in Washington DC, the Washington Post, which leads America’s news-media and their almost 100% support of (and promotions for) neoconservatism — American imperialism, or wars. This includes sanctions, coups, and military invasions, against countries that America’s billionaires want to control but don’t yet control — such as Venezuela, Syria, Iran, Russia, Libya, and China. These are aggressive wars, against countries which had never aggressed against the United States. It’s not, at all, defensive, but the exact opposite.
    It’s not necessarily endless war (even Hitler hadn’t been intending that), but it is war until the entire planet has become controlled by the US Government, which Government is itself controlled by America’s billionaires, the funders of neoconservatism — US imperialism — in both of America’s political Parties, via think tanks, newspapers, TV networks, etcetera.
    Bezos is a crucial part of that, neoconservatism, ever since, at the 6-9 June 2013 Bilderberg meeting, he arranged with Donald Graham the Washington Post’s owner, to buy that newspaper, for $250 million, after he had already negotiated, in March of that same year, with the neoconservative CIA Director, John Brennan.

    This $600 million ten-year cloud computing contract transformed Amazon corporation, from being a reliable money-loser, into a reliably profitable firm, and therefore caused Bezos’s net worth to soar even more (and at a sharper rate of rising) than it had been doing while it had been losing money. He was now the most influential salesman not only for books, etc., but for the CIA, and for such mega-corporations as Lockheed Martin.  US imperialism has supercharged his wealth, but didn’t alone cause his wealth. Jeff Bezos might be the most ferociously gifted business-person on the planet.
    Some of America’s billionaires don’t care about international conquest as much as he does, but all of them at least accept neoconservatism; none of them, for example, establishes and donates large sums to, anti-imperialistic organizations; none of America’s billionaires is determined to end the reign of neoconservatism, nor even to help the fight to end it, or at least to end its grip over the US Government. None. Not even a single one of them does. But many of them establish, and donate large sums to, neoconservative organizations, or run neoconservative organs such as Bezos’s Washington Post, which is simultaneously a neoconservative and a neoliberal organ; i.e., it’s a Democratic Party type of neoconservative organ.
    That’s the way billionaires are, at least in the United States. All of them are imperialists. They sponsor it; they promote it and hire people who do, and demote or get rid of people who don’t. Expanding an empire is extremely profitable for its aristocrats, and always has been, even before the Roman Empire.
    Bezos also wants to privatize everything around the world that can become privatized, such as education, highways, health care, and pensions. The more that billionaires control those, the less that everyone else does; and preventing control by the public helps to protect billionaires against democracy that would increase their taxes, and against governmental regulations that would reduce their profits by increasing their corporations’ expenses. So, billionaires control the government in order to increase their takings from the public.
    He, through his Washington Post, is one of the world’s top personal sellers to the US military-industrial complex, because he controls and is the biggest investor in Amazon corporation, whose Web Services division supplies all cloud-computing services to the Pentagon, CIA and NSA. And in April there was a headline “CIA Considering Cloud Contract Worth ‘Tens of Billions’,” which contract could soar Bezos’s personal wealth even higher into the stratosphere, especially if he wins all of it (as he previously did).
    He also globally dominates, and is constantly increasing his control over, the promotion and sale of books and films, because his Amazon is the world’s largest retailer (and now also one of the largest publishers, producers and distributors) of those. That, too, can be a huge impact upon politics and government, indirectly, through promoting the most neocon works, and thus helping to shape intellectual discourse (and voters’ votes) in the country.
    He also is crushing millions of retailers, by his unmatched brilliance at controlling one market after another, and is retailing, either as Amazon or else as an essential middleman for — and often even as a controller of — Amazon’s retail competitors.

    No one asks where the cocaine came from… Brazil?  No one asks why the ship and cargo weren't immediately forfeited and sold at public auction. The assets and properties of minor drug dealers are never seen again.  Why is there a difference?

    JP Morgan cargo ship released, minus the $1.3 billion worth of cocaine found onboard — RT Business News

    "US federal authorities have released a cargo ship owned by JP Morgan, weeks after it was seized at the Port of Philadelphia in an unprecedented drugs bust that netted 20 tons of cocaine.

    They are still considering whether to pursue civil or criminal forfeiture of the ship, MSC ‘Gayane,’ which is now cruising toward the Netherlands.

    US attorney William McSwain wrote on Twitter: “My office secured $10 million in cash and a $40 million surety bond from the owner and operator of the vessel in exchange for its temporary release pending a final resolution in this case.”  [How much will the "final resolution" cost?]

    Dane,

    How deeply I admire your relentless efforts to awaken those who sleep among us. You are so much stronger than myself.

    Defeated decades ago by the cognitive constipation of the lost souls who surrounded me, I gave up. Threw in the towel.

    But you so refresh me. Although I live as a hermit,and have no platform to offer in support of you, please accept my total, and absolute, gratitude for your courageous and unrelenting efforts to waken those lost souls.

    May our common Creator bless your efforts to preserve his creation.

    Yar Swerc

    • Dane Wigington says:

      Hello, Yar, thank you for standing with us in this all important battle for the greater good. It is, in fact, our collective efforts that can yet make a difference. My deepest gratitude to you, and to all other dedicated individuals that have resolved themselves to stand against the fading of the light. We march together.

    The New American Homeless | The New Republic

    … If the term “working homeless” has not yet entered our national vocabulary, there is reason to expect that it soon will. Hidden within the world of homelessness has always been a subset of individuals, usually single parents, with jobs; what’s different now is the sheer extent of this phenomenon.
    For a widening swath of the nearly seven million American workers living below the poverty line, a combination of skyrocketing rents, stagnant wages, and a lack of tenant protections has proved all but insurmountable.
     Theirs, increasingly, is the face of homelessness in the United States: people whose paychecks are no longer enough to keep a roof over their heads.

    Strikingly, this crisis of housing insecurity is erupting in America’s richest, most rapidly developing cities. New York, whose economy soared to historic heights between 2009 and 2018, watched its shelter population swell by 72 percent during that time. Washington, D.C., boasts one of the country’s highest median incomes; it also has the greatest per capita homeless rate. Seattle is close behind. In Los Angeles and Charlotte, San Jose and Nashville, the trends are similar.
    Unemployment is at a generational low; corporate profits have surged; the signs of growth—from new construction and consumer spending to the unbridled “revitalization” of urban space—are everywhere. Yet the teachers, maintenance workers, supermarket cashiers, and medical assistants who help sustain these cities are getting relentlessly priced out of them.
    Last year, 7.8 million extremely low-income renters were classified as severely cost burdened, meaning they spent at least 50 percent of their income on rent and utilities, and more than half a million people were homeless on any given night.
    Unlike earlier periods of widespread homelessness and displacement, such as during the recession of 2008, what we’re witnessing today is an emergency born less of poverty than prosperity—occurring not despite but precisely because of the economic boom.

    Is the U.S. Becoming a Third World Nation?
    Charles Hugh Smith / Aug.23, 2019
    … symptoms of a status quo that's fast losing First World capabilities. What characterizes Third World/Failing States isn't just poverty, crumbling infrastructure and endemic corruption; at a systems level these are the key dynamics in Third World/Failing States:

    1. The status quo protects insiders at the expense of everyone else.
    2. There is no real accountability; failure has no consequences, bureaucrats are never fired for incompetence, reforms are watered down or neutered by institutional sclerosis.
    3. Pay-to-play is the most cost-effective way to influence policy or evade consequences.
    4. The status quo is incapable of differentiating between complexity that serves the legitimate purposes of transparency and accountability and complexity that serves no purpose beyond guaranteeing insiders' paper-shuffling jobs. As a consequence, complexity that adds no value chokes the economy and the government.
    5. There are two sets of laws: one for insiders and the super-wealthy, and another harsher set for everyone else.
    6. The super-wealthy fear nothing because the system functions to serve their interests.
    7. The super-wealthy and state insiders control the media's narratives and the machinery of governance to serve their interests. Reforms are in name only; the faces of elected officials change but nothing changes structurally.
    8. Insiders, well-paid pundits and the technocrats serving the corporate and state elites believe the status quo is just fine because they're doing fine; they are blind to the soaring inequality, systemic corruption, stupendous waste and the impossibility of real reform.

    Does America's status quo protects insiders at the expense of everyone else? Yes. As for the other seven characteristics: yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes and yes.
    And lets' not forget #9: the vast majority of the economic gains flow to the elite at the very top of the wealth-power pyramid: is this true in the U.S.? Definitively yes. Just look at this chart: this is a chart of an informal kleptocracy which cloaks itself in the faux finery of democracy and a (rigged) "market" economy.
    That's the very definition of a Third World failed state.

      tis so, too, here in the uk

      it appears to me that human empires grow in areas where people can make money by screwing the natives, and then, because they suck the life out of the system and the people, the empire has no where to go but declines

      look to history – same ol', same ol' – the empire builders who left the built deserted cities in afganistan in the dry dusty mountains, where nothing lives

      wonder how the russian natives really feel  about the rape of their country                                        

      or the chinese natives who haven't made money and are left behind in chinas greedy search

      or the south americans natives – damned by the spanish – now by greed

      but then there seem to be the ruins there of previous greedy empires everywhere!!!

      the older people in this country love to see the trappings of the rich – the big houses, castles, obsession with gold, silver, fine furniture, carpets etc.

      no awareness that it was all taken from the earth

      saw a £4.8 billion yacht in this magic box owned by a malaysian business man

      the commentary, when describing the gold plated inside, and i quote 'king midas would have been jealous'!!??

      did his mum not tell him the end of the story that king midas couldn't eat cos everything, including food turned to gold, and so did his daughter when he hugged her

      and i just read that lord mountbatten, written in a biography by his daughter, had many lovers and so did his wife, that his childern didn't see much of them and were brought up by servants of one kind or another

      how can one grow into an emotionally stable person if the adults around you are corrupt

      corrupted minds

    Leaked Documents Show Brazil’s Bolsonaro Has Grave Plans for Amazon Rainforest
    OpenDemocracy.net / Manuella Libardi / Aug. 21, 2019

    Leaked documents show that Jair Bolsonaro's government intends to use the Brazilian president's hate speech to isolate minorities living in the Amazon region. The PowerPoint slides, which democraciaAbierta has seen, also reveal plans to implement predatory projects that could have a devastating environmental impact.
    The Bolsonaro government has as one of its priorities to strategically occupy the Amazon region to prevent the implementation of multilateral conservation projects for the rainforest, specifically the so-called “Triple A” project.
    "Development projects must be implemented on the Amazon basin to integrate it into the rest of the national territory in order to fight off international pressure for the implementation of the so-called 'Triple A' project. To do this, it is necessary to build the Trombetas River hydroelectric plant, the Óbidos bridge over the Amazon River, and the implementation of the BR-163 highway to the border with Suriname," one of slides read.
    One of the tactics cited in the document is to redefine the paradigms of indigenism, quilombolism and environmentalism through the lenses of liberalism and conservatism.
