5G, EMF's in General, Are Bad For You and Bad For the Environment

I have been pointing out the dangers of EMFs and 5G for well over a decade on this blog. 5G damages your DNA, causes inflammation and much more. Yesterday the Full Measure ran an informative segment they ran on 5G back in May. Below is link to the segment.

Texas is Sweltering--More Signs Climate Migration is Accelerating

Parts of Texas are searing with temps above 110°F; Abilene hit 113°F yesterday. Demand for electricity is at record levels--driving up utility bills. This will push climate migration north.

What will also contribute to climate migration north is the unraveling of support staff, or workers, that make every day life possible. High temperatures make working outside during the summer nearly impossible.

Heat wave casualties are increasingly showing up in  Texas and other locales. A UPS driver in north Texas passed out because of heat a few days ago and crashed his truck. Nearly 40 deaths in Dallas County this summer are being investigated as heat-related, according to the medical examiner. Climate change is increasingly putting a hurt on Americas south.

I have been posting on climate migration for years and will continue to do so.

One of the Better Books on Climate Migration

Abraham Lustgarten has written an insightful book on climate migration, On The Move, The Overheating Earth And the Uprooting of America. Not surprising given that Lustgarten is a reporter on Climate Migration for ProPublica and the New York Times.

As someone that has been passionate about Climate Migration for years Lustgarten points out changes and raises issues I had not thought of. For example, rising heat will lead to increased suicides, thefts  and assaults.

The book has a social justice bent pointing out that rising temperatures will drive demand for energy which will balloon utility costs in some of the poorest regions of the country. It cites a report that Climate Change will also disproportionately hurt poorer communities that were hurt by redlining decades ago; with things like a "heat island effect" that can  spike temperatures  22°F more because of increased concrete and asphalt surfaces , and buildings and a lack of green space.

Increasing temperatures will increase pollens and allergens and lead to rise of vector-borne diseases and pandemics.

Follow the Water

Water scarcity may be the key determinant in leading to Climate Migration as more of America becomes parched. A research study in Mexico found the key variable in driving migration was the greater the drought the greater the out migration. 

Many areas of the country are at risk of losing their source of water. Arizona has published reports saying that by 2035 it will run out of water as the Colorado River dries up. The Ogallala aquifer in America heartland is down 150 feet. The Water Resources Institute that monitors water believes competition for water will be two to three times greater by the mid-century. Noting,

Extreme water stress--a characterization normally reserved for countries close to the equator--will plunge much of the land west of the Missouri Rive, roughly where the 100 th meridian divides the verdant East from the arid Great Plains, by 2040...

Adding that speculators are hoarding water. Yuk!

As temperatures rise  farming will require more water putting more stress on the demand for water.

Nuanced Migration

Lustgarten provides a more nuanced perspective on Climate Migration. People are not going to whole sale beginning moving. And if they move they may  not necessarily all move to America's north. People in rural southern areas may initially move to large metro areas like Atlanta.

However the north will experience a population rise, as well as the economic benefits.

The poor in the South may stay be stuck in the South and we may create islands of the wealthy.

All in all, On the Move is interesting, thought-provoking and worth a read.

Earth Healing 101

I am an Earth Healer that works with Mother Earths hidden body to make a better world. I do this because I believe actions taken in the hidden world can reverberate stronger than actions taken in the physical world. I recently began posting videos on YouTube on Earth Healing.

Climate Migration--Florida Home Prices Plunge YOY While Prices Rise Elsewhere

For several years I have been advocating that climate migration will drive people from southern climes northward in the USA. Newsweek reported that 3 of 5 largest home price declines in the country were in metropolitan areas in Florida over the last year. Meaning people are beginning to realize that rising temperatures and rising sea levels  will increasingly make Florida uninhabitable. Citing ATOM sources Newsweek said,

The biggest year-over-year decrease in typical profit margins—which can be calculated as the percentage difference between median purchase and resale prices—was recorded by ATTOM in the metropolitan area of Hilo, Hawaii, where the homeowners' margin was down from 80.5 percent in the second quarter of 2023 to 45.3 percent in the second quarter of 2024.

It was followed by Port St. Lucie, Florida (down from 95 percent to 73.9 percent); Daphne-Fairhope, Alabama (down from 49.8 percent to 34 percent); Crestview-Fort Walton Beach, Florida (down from 60.7 percent to 45.1 percent); and Naples, Florida (down from 84.9 percent to 69.2 percent).

 This does not portend well for  Florida.

Meanwhile my hometown of Syracuse was mentioned as being one of the fastest rising areas.

Warmest Day on Record this Past Monday (7/22/24)--Broke Sunday's Record

Global temperatures continue  to rise and break records. According to the Copernicus Climate Change Service, 

The Earth has just experienced its warmest day in recent history, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) data. On 22 July 2024*, the daily global average temperature reached a new record high in the ERA5 dataset**, at 17.15°C. This exceeds the previous records of 17.09°C, set just one day before on 21 July 2024, and 17.08°C, set a year earlier on 6 July 2023.

Based on preliminary data released by C3S on 24 July, Monday 22 July was the hottest day in the ERA5 dataset, which begins in 1940.

What really stands out is also the difference between the temperatures since July 2023 and all previous years.

While temperatures have been rising for some time, what is surprising is how dramatic the rise was in comparison. Which makes one wonder, are temperature rises beginning to accelerate?

And if temperature rises are beginning to accelerate what does is it say--has our response been too weak or inadequate?, or is our response and solution totally wrong?

The agency notes that it is too early to predict whether 2024 will be the hottest year on record, particularly  since the last four months of 2023 were exceptionally warm, but...

Swami Vivekananda'sThousand Islands Cottage to Open July 10 to August 16

Swami Vivekananda's Thousand Islands Cottage will open July 10 until August 16, 2024. Hours of operation to view the cottage will be 10AM to 12 noon and 4PM to 6PM daily. It appears there will be a satsang and group meditation in the afternoon. Historically the grounds have been open to visitors even if the cottage is closed.

A seminar will be held beginning Wednesday July 24, 8PM until Saturday July 27.

Here is a link to the press release.

It was on the grounds of the cottage the great sage Swami Vivekananda achieved the highest state of Samadhi, Nirvikalpa Samadhi. He credits the grounds of the cottage on Wellsley Island in the Thousand Islands for giving him a unique sense of inner freedom and helping him break free.The cottage and its grounds are listed in my book Sacred Sites in North Star for the Fields of Consciousness and numerous Energies Vortices found there.

I have several write ups on the cottage on my blog that can be accessed at: Swami vivekananda cottage
