The waters will be rising soon.
Find someone or something to cling to.”

“Much effort has gone into using weather weapons to create a global warming effect around the world, which the new world order can exploit for political gain and mainstream media false flag publicity.”
William Dingwall, What Happened When I Was Asleep

“Rainbow Days by Stewart Stafford

They make us live in monochrome,
Autoerotic under a mirrored dome,
Regurgitating back this non-entity,
Inside I scream it's the death of me.

In between bouts of colon screening,
Rainbow days in a third eye's gleaming,
Silence a throbbing executioner's drum,
Brass muffling the demagogue's hum.

Shattered manacles I'm going to see,
As I'm leaving this world for infinity,
Christen horror hurricanes after me,
On submerged planet earth, Terra-Firma-On-Sea.

Ling  Ma
“Jonathan broke the silence. In a timorous voice, he said he could see clearly now, could see the future. The future is more exponentially exploding rents. The future is more condo buildings, more luxury housing bought by shell companies of the global wealthy elite. The future is more Whole Foods, aisles of refrigerated cut fruit packaged in plastic containers. The future is more Urban Outfitters, more Sephoras, more Chipotles. The future just wants more consumers. The future is more newly arrived college grads and tourists in some fruitless search for authenticity. The future is more overpriced Pabsts at dive-bar simulacrums. Something something Rousseau something. Manhattan is sinking.

What, literally? Because of global warming? I snarked.

Don’t make fun of me. And yes, literally and figuratively.”
Ling Ma, Severance

Elly Griffiths
“Gary’s made a bit of a name for himself. He’s always in the papers going on about climate change being a hoax. That’s why I was surprised ….’
‘Surprised by what,’ prompts Harbinder because the singer seems to have dried again.
‘All the diners, the members of this club, were men,’ says Chris. ‘And they were all really rich and successful. … Then, after dinner, there was a speaker. She talked about climate change and – my God – she laid it on thick. Rising sea levels, shrinking glaciers, thawing permafrost, temperatures only likely to rise, it’s a hundred seconds to midnight on the doomsday clock. I know a lot of this stuff and I was still depressed. But I expected Gary to argue, to shout her down. I mean, that’s been his schtick for the last few years, right? Global warming is cyclical, it’s all a ruse by lefties to shut down the coal business. That sort of thing. But he agreed with every word. They all did. Then I realised. They believed in climate change. They knew it was happening. They knew better than anyone, with all those directorships of oil companies and the like. They knew but they wanted to stop anyone else understanding the full extent of it. Because it was bad for business.’ – Chris Foster in Bleeding Heart Yard (2022) by Elly Griffiths”

“Cold is better, because you can put on layers to keep warm. Heat will kill you.”
Steven Magee

“As a result of human-induced climate change, the Arctic region is warming, and it is doing so at a rate faster than the rest of the planet. This is having a great impact on the Arctic Ocean ice cap. One stark trend is that the overall thickness of the sea ice is decreasing rapidly—it declined from a mean of 3.64 metres in 1980 to 1.89 metres in 2008. Prior to the late 1970s, sea ice typically extended over close to 15.6 million square kilometres in late winter in the Arctic. However, the maximum winter extent of sea ice in the Arctic Ocean has been decreasing by an average of 3 per cent per decade since 1979 and in recent years at a much faster rate than this; it is now down to about 14.4 million square kilometres. The extent of minimum summer ice cover is decreasing at an even faster rate. Sea ice typically extended over about 7 million square kilometres at summer’s end in the Arctic. Over the past decade, though, the minimum sea ice extent has been only 3.5 to 5 million square kilometres. At this rate, the Arctic Ocean will become nearly or completely ice free for several months a year before 2040, and possibly within the next decade.”

“The global government is on a mass suicide mission for the human race.”

Swami Dhyan Giten
“We have been taught that life is a fight and a struggle. We have been taught to fight, because of the the idea that man has to continuously fight for his survival. We have been taught to fight, because of the idea that man and nature are enemies. 
Nature is not our enemy. Nature is our home. The universe is not antagonosiotic to us. The universe means the earth, which the universe fills with flowers, trees, animals, people, rivers and mountains. The universe is supporting them. Why would the flowers, the trees and the rivers otherwise grow? 
Man is part of this existence. But the idea that we have to fight creates a separation between us and the whole. Man becomes an isolated island. Then we live in fear, anxiety and worry. So how can we be happy? Instead we feel alienated, alone and meaningless, because the whole seems to be a constant fight and struggle. 
For the person who have been fighting with existence, death seems to be the ultimate thing. But for the person who have surrendered to existence, who is in tune with existence, death is not the ultimate thing. Surrender means to let go of your ego, so for him there is no death. It is only the egothat dies, because the ego is a separation from the whole. Itis the ego that fights with the whole. Surrender means to drop all that is superficial and shallow. Surrender means to become egoless. 
Surrender means that our heart starts to beat in tune with the universal heart. Instead of being an isolated island, we become part of the whole continent. And then we live in love, joy, silence, trust, truth, freedom and the eternal. Suddenly we know the joy and beauty of surrender. Surrender means to yes to the whole.”

“In Conversation With The Earth!

Hello I am Earth , your home,
Hello I am human from Climate summit at Rome,
Pleasure meeting you today,
Well I thought you met and saw me everyday,
Nevermind, human mind is a curious creation,
Look at the devastation and your numb sensation,
Water levels rising,
Frequent wildfires are least surprising,
Landslides burying people alive,
For the poor Earth is no longer a place to thrive,
CO2 emissions creating a blanket of doom,
The world looks like a planet draped in agony and gloom,
Deforestation has left me naked,
By your callousness I feel raped, you humans are so ungrateful and wicked,
The rising heat will kill us both,
I will manage drifting in the universe but imagine your plight in the cosmic broth?
You are the cause of your own extinction,
And you seek mercy from me for this inevitable destruction,
I am part of the universe the universe is not a part of me,
And if there is a cause, an effect too there shall be!
But I am wondering why you are still procrastinating,
You are more interested in Mars’s Terraforming,
Instead of saving your present home,
Where there is Italy, Germany, India, America, Russia, China, many others and Rome,
You seem to ignore my pleadings and warning signs,
And somehow your conscience resigns,
Into a slumber of thoughtlessness,
And you seem willing to endure this perpetual feeling of restlessness,
But refrain from acting now,
Sometimes you just need to start, without wasting too much time on thinking how,
This maybe my last conversation with you , my dear human being,
It is time you believed in what you are seeing,
A ravaged soul of mine,
I fret and fume, yet you convince yourself I am fine,
Because you can still breathe in my air,
But how long, because you are offering me a bargain that is unfair,
Very soon you may need protected air zones to survive,
And then only those with a penny in the pocket shall be alive,
Where will your less fortunate brothers and sisters go?
I think after the great fall, today humanity has fallen really too low,
Not placing restraint on their acts so ignoble,
Although you see my scars so fresh and palpable,
Anyway, why shall you care as long as you can breathe,
And not realise the irony, the day you feel choked I too shall no more be able to breathe!
Mars is a distant dream,
Pay heed now when I yell and scream,
Mars is just a reflection in the mirror,
But I am the mirror, you just need to be a heedful observer,
And act now before it is too late,
And stop wasting time in a bureaucratically complex debate,
Maybe this will be the last summer for you and me too,
But I am still believing and expecting the best from you!
