Military Sonar is Causing Fish to Spin/Whirl Endlessly Until They Die in The Florida Keys

If you watch news you may remember a few weeks back there was a story about fish in the Florida Keys spinning out of control until they died. Here is a link to one of those news stories,

My initial thoughts were Electropollution was behind the die-off and wondered whether it was offshore wind farms creating problems. Last summer and fall there lots of news coverage about whales dying off of the coast in New York and New Jersey because of offshore wind turbines.

I did some research and found that Florida does not allow offshore wind turbines.

Then I got an email from Arthur Firstenberg on how the fish deaths were primarily located near a military base that has stepped up its use of sonar and radar to create a 200 mile radius surveillance zone.

Here is a link to the Cellular Task Force article.

More on Climate Migration

 More news on how climate change is forcing people to move, this time to escape rising temperatures and calamities. Propublica had a story out today on how flooding is increasingly forcing  people to move. Noting that, 

the number of people forcibly cast out of their homes by natural disasters, counted very few displaced Americans in 2009, 2010 and 2011, years in which few natural disasters struck the United States. But by 2016 the numbers had begun to surge, with between 1 million and 1.7 million newly displaced people annually.

Climate Migration, , Bloomberg Says Housing Crisis in Warm Climates is getting Worse

The insurance crisis in climate stricken areas is getting worse and will ultimately affect all of us--the only question is how and the severity. People cannot get homeowners insurance in places like Florida, California, Texas... States may extend themselves by offering cheap homeowners insurance to residents, only to face a huge financial crisis should a major weather event (hurricane, fire...) occur--which is highly likely. Then turn to the Feds. I have been writing about how climate change and rising costs for insurance, help.. will force climate migration north. 

I had written an article  for the March/April issue  Life In the Finger Lakes on how people will begin to leave southern climes in favor of the north. Climate Migration--Is A Change in Store For the Finger Lakes?  It was a followup to a blog post I did for them five years earlier.

I have several posts on Climate Migration

Today on Amanpour and company, a Bloomberg reporter talked about the depth of the crisis and how it is spreading. Link below.

Things are getting very serious and we are in the early stages of what will become the new normal--AND IT IS ONLY GOING TO ACCELERATE!

Florida Housing Prices Falling--Another Indication that Climate Migration May Pick Up

Back on March 1st I posted an article I had written for the March/April issue  Life In the Finger Lakes on how people are beginning to leave southern climes in favor of the north because of rising temperatures and rising costs for help, insurance... Climate Migration Is A Change in Store For the Finger Lakes? It was a followup to a blog post I did for them five years earlier.

Newsweek just put out an article Prices Fall as Homeowners Desperately Try to Sell on how the price of homes in Florida are starting to fall because of the surge in homeowners insurance, one the factors I mentioned in my article. Saying,

The Sunshine State's number of motivated sellers on Zillow remained much higher than in other states like California and Texas. As of Wednesday morning, California had 1,032 motivated sellers for a total of 74,792 properties listed, while Texas counted 1,829 out of a total of 1818,888.

The high number of motivated sellers in Florida might be explained, in part, by the skyrocketing home insurance premiums in the state. In the past three years, the cost of home insurance has grown by 102 percent, according to the Insurance Information Institute (Triple-I), as the risk posed by extreme weather events is rising. Several private insurers have left the state or have stopped offering new policies.

Still early in this trend, we will see.

Climate Migration

The following is from the March/April issue of Life in the Finger Lakes.

Climate Migration

Is A Change in Store For the Finger Lakes?

I don’t think many of us were surprised to learn that 2023 was the hottest year on record for the eighth year in a row. Or that we recorded the highest ocean temperature ever last year. What did surprise many of us were the Canadian wildfires last summer that filled our air with smoke for weeks. Clearly climate change is beginning to affect us in unimaginable ways.

How are we in the Finger Lakes going to be affected?

Like most places, our temperatures will rise, weather patterns will become more erratic and there will be a decrease in the biodiversity of flora and fauna.

The biggest change may be a large influx of climate migrants looking to escape stifling heat and flooded coastal areas. For them, the Finger Lakes Region is a climate haven.

Five years ago, I wrote a piece for Life in the Finger Lakes, “Is Population Growth Coming to Upstate New York?” The article predicted a rise in our population from an inflow of climate migrants. So far there continues to be a net outflow of residents from New York State. However, prognosticators and national media have since begun to tout our area as a climate haven.

In his book How to Prepare for Climate Change, CBS correspondent Daniel Pogue recommends moving to cities along the Great Lakes such as Buffalo. “Cold, snowy Syracuse and Buffalo could be shelters from the storms,” Pogue said in an interview. He added, “Florida and Arizona are the worse places for you to retire.” Several other organizations believe the Great Lakes Region will be a climate haven, such as Wisconsin Public Radio, Crains Detroit, Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and NOAA.

Gaia Vince, in her book Nomad Century, How Climate Migration Will Reshape Our World, feels the Great Lakes Region in the USA and Canada are climate havens that will see a “huge influx of residents … as the vast bodies of water should keep the temperature fairly temperate.” Believing the 45° N parallel (the very northern tip of NYS) and above will become the 21 century’s “booming haven.”

We need only look to our neighbor to the north of Lake Ontario to see how large inflows of immigrants can flood an area and change its complexion. It seems like there is one housing development after another from Niagara Falls to well on the other side of Toronto, approaching the Thousand Islands. In 2021 Toronto was ranked the 21st most congested city in North America; it spiked to being third in 2022. If we act now this does not need to be our fate.

The case for the Finger Lakes as a climate refuge is compelling. Our temperature is more moderate and we have an abundance of water, both from the Finger Lakes and our proximity to the Great Lakes. There are several factors that are creating climate migrants and drawing them to our area. First, life is becoming increasingly challenging in the south. Second, support networks sustaining hot areas are beginning to fray. Thirdly, the pool of northern havens is not as large as believed.

Climates are not friendly in the South and West

Consider some of last summer’s heat records. Miami, FL; Austin, TX and Phoenix, AZ each had several weeks of temperatures at 100 degrees or more. July was the hottest month on record.

A study by the First Street Foundation in 2022 predicted that the heat index will reach 125 degrees, what it calls “Extreme Danger,” at least once per year within the next 30 years in most Texas counties. As for the rest of the country, it said that 8 million residents in the U.S. experienced Extreme Danger Days in 2022; by 2053, that number will reach 107 million.

Rising temperatures will encourage people to move to cooler climates.

The National Ocean Service predicts that sea levels could rise by as much as a foot by 2050, overwhelming coastal areas. Large swaths of Florida and Louisiana will be below annual flood levels.

Additionally, rising sea levels will pollute fresh water estuaries close to the coast with salt, ruining the source of drinking water for many coastal areas. Then there is the surge of wildfires and the resulting smoke. Last year the UN forecast that wildfires will increase by 50 percent by 2100, and they will be more intense. Higher temperatures will provide more fuel for hurricanes and tornadoes, increasing their intensity, season length and most likely their frequency. All of which will disproportionately affect areas already hard hit by climate change.

 

Support networks are beginning to fray

Climate change is putting pressure on support networks that make home ownership possible in climate-stricken areas.

Consider homeowners insurance. Farmers just joined about a dozen other insurance companies that will no longer underwrite homeowners insurance in Florida. The average cost for insuring a home in Florida jumped 42 percent to $4,200 in 2023, compared to $1,800 the national average. Allstate and State Farm are no longer underwriting homes in Texas and California. Similarly, insurers are leaving Arizona and Louisiana.

Eric Andersen, head of AON, the largest reinsurer (reinsurers help insurers absorb catastrophic losses), testified before the Senate in March 2023. He said there has been

a crisis of confidence in predicting losses, particularly for wildfires and floods. Comparing the current state of underwriting risk to the financial crisis of 2008, Anderson stated “Just as the U.S. economy was overexposed to mortgage risk in 2008, the economy today is over-exposed to climate risk.”

Rising temperatures in the South is making it unsafe to work outside during heatwaves. OSHA recommends extra precautions be taken when temperatures reach 95 degrees. This will reduce when workers can work, and possibly the pool of workers, and raise the cost of home repairs.

Diminishing support networks will add to the climate induced pressure to have people move.

Climate haven locations are nuanced

Finding a climate haven is more than just moving  north. Changing weather patterns and other factors may alter perceptions of where a safe area is located. The Pacific Northwest’s 2021 heat dome, earlier departure of snowpack and infestation of pine beetles (which increase the chance of wildfires) showed it might not be the climate havenmany of us thought.

Last summer, New England saw heavy rainfall that led to flooding.The southern tier in New York is the most flood prone area in the state and has been flooded on several occasions. By 2100, New York City could experience a sea rise of 5 feet, give or take a foot. In August 2014, Toledo, OH faced a water crisis due to algae blooms in Lake Erie.

The good news is that we have time. People continue to leave New York. Surprisingly some of the states experiencing the highest inflow of new residents are also the most vulnerable states to climate change, such as Florida and Texas.

Preserve and protect the earth

Vince believes the world can handle the coming surge of climate migrants. In her book she points out that if we allow 20 square meters of space per person – more than double English planning regulations– 11 billion people would need 220,000 square kilometers. No doubt Vince has compassion for people and the environment, but her perspective is about how we can save ourselves, not how we can save our environment. I would argue that if we instead focus on how we can save the earth, we will in the process save ourselves.

The coming inflow of climate migrates provides an opportunity to help us focus on climate change, do something about it and attract resources.

We should try to protect and preserve as much land as possible. Fortunately, the Finger Lakes Land Trust (FLLT) has been doing so for years, as have the Central New York Land Trust and the Ontario Land Trust whose mandate includes a few areas in the Finger Lakes. Besides acquiring property, their use of conservation easements prevents the development of the land they have underwritten – meaning large swaths of land cannot be developed.

The more land we can lock up and protect from development, the more of our identity we can keep and the less we will look like one massive suburb.

President Biden signed an executive order when he took office that looks to preserve 30 percent of America’s land and water by 2030. Likewise, Governor Hochul signed legislation December 2021 to preserve 30 percent of NY’s water and land by 2030. The state will rely on a variety of measures to secure its ambitious goals from land purchases, to offering grants and encouraging conservation easements.

It will be a challenge to preserve 30 percent of the Finger Lakes by 2030. Max Heitner of the FLLT believes that the current amount of land preserved in the Finger Lakes as a percentage is in the low teens.

The state is beginning to prepare for the inflow of climate migrants. OnMarch 29, 2023 Senator Rachel May (whose district includes part of the Finger Lakes) introduced Senate Bill S6106, the Climate Relocation Planning and Preparation Act, to the finance committee. This is a start. But more needs to be done.

Businesses will also look to move to the Finger Lakes. Politicians need to realize we are a climate haven and not give them all sorts of tax breaks. Instead, they need to start thinking like Tom Sawyer who got his classmates to pay him for the privilege of painting a fence.

Fortunately, the inflow of climate migrants has yet to begin in earnest, so we have time to prepare. I expect very shortly we will see large pools of money looking to invest in our area; possibly even competing with land trusts for property.

Please donate to, or volunteer for, one of our land trusts. If you are a landowner, consider signing a conservation easement.

Solar Flare Wallops Cell Service and Radio in Parts of the World

Two powerful  X-Class Solar Flares (X is the strongest) disrupted radio signals and cell service in America's west and in large swaths of the Pacific. A radio blackout was experienced in Australia, Indonesia, India and East Africa.

Solar flares are bursts of radiation from the Sun's surface. If strong enough they can fry satellites orbiting the Earth. The strongest solar storm, that we know of, the Carrington Event, occurred in September (1,2) of 1859. It not only disrupted telegraph service in the States, it fried parts of America's telegraph system and killed one operator. It also led to northern and southern lights (Aurora borealis) in countries close to the equator such as Cuba.

More Vulnerable, Lucky So Far

Over the last 150 years our usage of electrical devices has exploded. We have electrified and digitized much of the world and continue to switch to electricity. Groups like Bill McKibben's 350.org advocate that we go 100% renewables and electrify everything. In other words, betting it all on electricity.

Is that the smart?

On July 23, 2012 there was a Carrington like event, fortunately it happened on the side of the sun facing away from the Earth. Like the Carrington Event it began with a solar flare followed by a huge coronal mass ejection. NASA said had it occurred on  the side of the sun facing the Earth there would have been “widespread power blackouts, and everything that plugs into a wall socket would have been disabled.” 

NASA, the group that put a man on the moon in 1969, is telling us we dodged a bullet and remain incredibly vulnerable to solar storms.

It gets worse.

The geomagnetic field that shrouds the Earth gives us some protection from solar storms. Unfortunately, it has weakened about 9% since the middle of the 19th century, in the process making us more vulnerable to solar storms.

I also believe that our effort to electrify everything is contributing to a weakening of the geomagnetic field. More on this in the future.

Trouble Ahead.

The sun has a solar cycle that lasts about eleven years, where solar activity increases for about 5 1/2 years, reaching a crescendo, what is called a solar maximum". From there solar activity decreases for 5 1/2 years until it reaches a nadir, what is called a "solar minimum.

In the current solar cycle the solar maximum is expected to peak in the first half of 2025. So we should expect to see solar activity increase for the next 1 year plus.

There are also larger cycles within solar cycles. It is forecast that solar activity will dampen, be in a minimum, for the next few decades. Meaning that there are forces that will  exert downward pressure on solar activity for the next few decades.

Call Federal  and State Officials

Please call your state and federal representatives and tell them to slowdown this mad rush to electrify everything. For example, New York State has outlawed the addition of new gas furnaces after 2025.

What happens if the east coast of America experiences a solar storm that fries much of Americas electrical grid during the winter (North) or summer (South)?

A lot of people are going to die.

Secondly, this mad rush to electrify is bad for human health and the environment. As an electrosensitive my life dramatically change in 2022 when the city of Syracuse went to 5G cell service. At times I can feel the damaging effects of electricity. 

More importantly, I can see and dowse out the damage electricity is doing to Mother Earth.

Religious "Nones" are now the largest Cohort in America

 Pew Research reported today that when Americans were about their religious affiliation the largest group of people said, "none." Compared to 23% who are Catholics and 24% Evangelistic Protestants.

A dramatic increase from 2007 when 16% of America's were nones.does  46% of the nones said they do not like religious organizations. 

Some of the other findings were,

Most “nones” believe in God or another higher power. But very few go to religious services regularly.

Most say religion does some harm, but many also think it does some good. They are not uniformly anti-religious.

Most “nones” reject the idea that science can explain everything. But they express more positive views of science than religiously affiliated Americans do.

Please Pray for the Animals

 A bitter cold wave is hitting much of America. Cold weather puts stress on all of us. It also puts incredible stress on the flora and fauna, most notably animals.

When cold weather like this hits my area I try and pray for the animals that do not have heated homes, or access to food. I do so briefly a few times a day. If I am out driving to the grocery store or walking my dog I spend some time praying. I encourage you to join me and find the time to pray during this cold spell.

Please pray for the animals.

Surprising, Unusual and Weird affects of Our Environmental Criis

Our environmental crisis is worsening, and the decline is accelerating. The realization a few days ago that 2023 was the hottest year on record by far, and that we are getting close to  surpassing the 1.5° C (1.48°C)  rise that we could not afford to pass  tells me so. Because of our environmental crisis we are also beginning to get surprises and unusual events occurring most of us would never have imagined. These Bizarre and Surprising Events--are a Tell, a Sign--it's BAD and getting WORSE!

These strange and surprising events are occurring because we do not understand the magnitude of our environmental crisis and the damage we are doing to our Mother. Nor do we understand how linked we are to each other, the world and to events. As an Earth Healer and Keeper of Sacred Sites, who works with the Unseen World, that Hidden World beyond our normal perceptions I can honestly say--WE ARE CLUELESS about our Mother!

Some of you may be more prescient than I, but I think the following are a few things that got me to say WOW!

Lats Summer's Wildfires--The smoke from Canadian wildfires that blanketed large swaths of America last summer were a big surprise. Did you ever hear that Wildfires would choke America. I sure didn't and even some of my diehard environmentalist friends were caught by surprisel.

It really sucked to have to stay indoors and not go hiking, or be outside because it was dangerous to breather the air.

Ticks, Butterflies, Spiders, Cockroaches (?) Bugs of all sorts are dramatically declining in number because of electropollution. RF radiation from cell phones and cell towers is doing great damage to wildlife. So reports the Cellular Phone Task Force. EVEN THE TICKS ARE VANISHING  Don't know about cockroaches dying, but ticks tell me they are. I don't know if it was a myth or not, but it has been said that  cockroaches have survived all sorts of cataclysms and some could survive the fallout of a nuclear blast.

Climate Change and the Shrinking Brain. A study of the last 50,000 years found that warmer periods on the Earth were associated with a decline of as much 10.7% in brain size. Cognitive consequences: Study reveals startling link between climate change and shrinking of human brain

2023 Was the Hottest on Record--The Line in the Sand Was Almost Crossed

Last year was the hottest year on record, by far. Worse we finished .02° (1.48°C) below the 1.5° Celsius temperature rise nations said we need to not surpass. We are failing, in a big way. Sad.

Scientists were caught by surprise by the magnitude of the rise.

Things are going to get much worse.
