Earth is
defined herein as:realm or abode of
mortal existence
mothership of the species
homo sapiens
solid matter of the planet we inhabit in distinction from
air or water
The softer
inorganic matter composing part of the surface of the
planet, in distinction from the firm
rock; soil of all kinds, including gravel, clay, loam, and the like; sometimes,
soil favorable to the growth of
plants; the visible surface of the globe; the ground; as, loose earth; rich
earth.
The third planet from the sun, having a sidereal period of
revolution about the sun of 365.26 days at a mean distance of approximately 149
million kilometers (92.96 million miles), an axial rotation period of 23 hours
56.07 minutes, an diameter of 12,756 kilometers (7,923 miles) at the equator.
Earth spins around the center of the Milky Way
at ~ 220 kilometers per second, or 490,000 miles per hour.
I close my eyes,
only for a
moment,
and the moment's gone
All my dreams,
pass before my eyes,
a curiosity
Dust in the wind,
all they are
is dust in the wind.
Same old song,
just
a drop of water in an endless
sea
All we
do,
crumbles to
the ground,
though we refuse to
see
Dust in the wind,
all we are is
dust in the wind
Don't hang on,
nothing lasts forever but the
earth and
sky
It slips away,
and
all your money won't another minute
buy.
Dust in the wind,
all we are is dust in the
wind
Dust in the wind,
everything is dust in the
wind.

"May the inhabitants of earth find heartfelt
consensus.
Unite their imaginings with
dwellers in heaven!
All
separation and
dualism will vanish
For there is only unity in real
existence!" - Rumi
"It is horrifying that we have to fight
our
own government to save the
environment."
Ansel Adams
The first scientific study of
ecology was done by the Greek scholar Theophrastus in 325 BC.
Theophrastus wrote about the relationship between organisms and between
organisms and their environment.
"All organisms and microsystems depend
on the health of the ecosystem in which they live, and each
ecosystem depends on other, distant
ecosystems.
Higher life forms depend on microbes to maintain a life
supporting atmosphere.
While life on
earth can sustain the loss of some
species, each species depends on the
whole.
None can exist in
isolation on a bare and lifeless
planet." - Charles Eisenstein
"I am born into an
environment
I know not whence I came
nor whither I go
nor
who I am.
Erwin Schrödinger
"If the social learning system comes to lack sufficient individual
learning or cognitively costly adaptive biases, behavior ceases tracking
environmental variation.
Then, when the environment does change,
fitness declines and the population may collapse or even be extirpated." - Hal
Whitehead
Science reveals the truth of an ever
changing Earth.
Real scientists are moral
individuals who seek truth.
Corruption of
the process of seeking after
the truth
undermines not just
democracy but
civilization
itself.
"It's easier to kill a number than an
individual,
whether we're talking about so many tons of fish,
so many
board feet of timber,
or so many
boxcars of
untermenschen."
Derrick Jensen
John Graham's
cost-benefit
analysis in conjunction with Milton Friedman's
Chicago School of
Economics ideology is fatally flawed as both neglect to take into account
general effects produced.
1989 John Graham, a
Wise Use sycophant, founds the
Harvard Center for Risk Analysis.
The
pseudoscience of
cost-benefit analysis claims to be
able to compare the monetary cost of the implementation of new laws.
In
John Graham cost-benefit analysis if a fish has no commercial value and 10
million fish die because of toxic pollution the
economic cost is
zero.
In this mindset
useless eaters are
better off
dead.
Toward that goal premature death is on the rise from slow
acting posions - transfat,
high fructose corn syrup,
diacetyl, fluoride, methyl
tert-butyl ether, bisphenol A,
phthalates, pyrethroids,
polybrominated diphenyl
ethers, lead,
polytetrafluoroethylene,
trichloroethylene,
polychlorinated biphenyls,
asbestos,
perchlorate,
mercury,
glyphosate and
organophosphates.

"Cost-benefit analysis' is
a cheap deception of the
general public.
This approach represents a
serious erosion in science.
You
create credentials and appear scientifically sensible, while all the time you
are just fronting for a political agenda." -
Michael Oppenheimer
"Economists
view the environment as invisible because their cost-benefit analysis is fatally flawed.
A full cost accounting
of industrial practices reveals how much the natural services of ecosystems threatened
or destroyed by development and
industrial pollution
are actually worth in addition to the real value of natural resources
consumed and wasted, especially irreplaceable ones.
Environmentalists despise the
church of neo-liberal
economics and the priests of predatory
corporatism, who are spending our principal and
deferring environmental debt like there's no tomorrow."- Andrew
Christie
John Graham, appointed by George Bush to head the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs in 2001, central role was undermining
environmental protection through 'research' papers based on cost-benefit
analysis.
John Graham blocked every rule change that protects the
environment including two dozen proposed by the EPA including
reduced arsenic levels in drinking water,
reduced pollution from coal
burning plants and regulation of
fecal waste from industrial
factory farms.
The Trump administration has done even more by
eliminating all environmental regulation.
June 8, 1783
Skaptar Jokull Volcano in Iceland explodes sending huge clouds of ash high into
the sky.
Summer never came
to the Arctic that year.
All along the Bering Sea coast and Norton
Sound area the Eskimos starved to death.
The volcanic cloud from the
Icelandic volcano drifted across the Pacific Ocean reaching Japan where 1783
became known as the year summer never came.
Sulfurous gases combined with water vapor high in
the atmosphere to produce a cloud of
tiny sulfuric acid crystals which reflected a considerable amount of
solar radiation back out
into space.
This lowered the temperature of the earth by about 1°
Celsius, and these effects were felt for about two years.
April 5, 1815 Mount Tambora Sumbawa,
Indonesia erupts with such
violence explosions could be heard for 1,000 miles.
Ash fell two
feet deep over 850 miles away.
Darkness cloaked a 300 mile area around
the volcano for three days.
Mount Tambora lost 4,100 feet in height and
threw out an estimated 36.4 cubic miles of debris.
Volcanic debris was
hurled into the atmosphere where it circled the earth, darkened the sky and
eventually helped to make 1816 known as the year
without a summer.
In the northeastern part of the US and the Ohio
Valley frost, ice and snow were
common in June; heavy frosts throughout July and even ice storms; frost and ice
were common in August.
Snow fell in Springfield, Massachusetts on
September 11, and colder weather settled in again during the final days of
September with ice up to one-fourth inch thick. October, although fairly
normal, had its share of frost and ice.
Coseguina Volcano in Nicaragua
erupted in January of 1835.
The volcano's erupted continuously for
seven hours creating total darkness within a radius of 50 miles of the volcano.
This eruption of Coseguina was blamed for the cool summer of 1836.
That summer was nearly as cold as the summer of
1816 in western Pennsylvania
and northeastern Ohio.
There were frosts in every month of the year,
and the only true summer weather was limited to the first 14 days of September.
During the period 1817-1890, 1836 had the coldest summer of record.
August 26, 1883 Krakatau(Krakatoa) erupts
creating a gigantic cloud of ash that shot upward to a height of 17 miles and
spread out like a huge oak tree.
On
August 27 the darkness from Krakatau (Krakatoa) eruption extended 100 miles out
from the volcano with the ash cloud from Krakatau (Krakatoa) rising an
estimated 50,000 feet above the Earth's surface.
Then came a second
eruption estimated to be equal to 200 megatons of TNT - about 13,000 times the
yield of the Little Boy bomb (13 to
16 KT) that devastated Hiroshima, Japan, and four times the yield of the
Tsar Bomba (50 MT), the largest
nuclear weapon ever built.
The 1883 eruption ejected approximately 21
cubic kilometres (5.0 cu mi) of rock, ash, and pumice, and generated the
loudest sound historically reported: the cataclysmic explosion was distinctly
heard as far away as Perth in Australia approximately 1,930
miles (3,110 km), and the island of Rodrigues near
Mauritius approximately 3,000 miles (5,000 km) distant.
The sound waves
from the explosion circled the Earth seven times.
During
the winter of 1883-1884, snow in
Scotland, Holland, Germany and different parts of the US was found to contain
tiny particles of volcanic dust.
The dust particles from
Krakatau(Krakatoa) could be seen on a clear day ringing the sun.
The
mean global temperature in 1884 was lowered 0.27C.
In
the dust of the Tibetan Plateau, with
much thinking and careful
calculation, the detonation
of thermonuclear warheads could blast fine particulate into the upper
atmosphere working in much the same way as Krakatoa.
The Tibetan
Plateau is a significant dust source area of great importance.
Synoptic
dynamics and remote sensing tracing of a dust storm on 3 to 5 March, 2003 in
Lhasa on South Tibet demonstrate that the Tibetan Plateau possesses all factors
and conditions of generating dust storms.
Accompanied with this dust
storm is a strong ascending stream on the Plateau which has raised various
sizes of dust particles into different levels.
The lifted coarse
particles were largely fallen down and accumulated as loess on the eastern
Tibetan Plateau, and the fine particles were translated by the westerly jet and
subsided in the northern Pacific Ocean.
The spatial-temporal
distribution of dust storms between years 1961 and 2000 on the Plateau shows
that dust storms mainly occur in winter
and early spring with high
frequency, and the path of
dust storm moves gradually from south to north, which is closely coupled
with the northward moving of the westerly jet from winter to spring over the
Tibetan Plateau.
The Tibetan Plateau is one of the key dust source
areas for long-distance transport because its high occurring frequency and
elevation cause fine particles easily to be lifted into the zone of the
westerly jet.

Citizens for Sensible Control of Acid
Rain (CSCAR) operated between 1983 and 1991 to oppose tightening the Clean
Air Act. In a 1986 letter sent
to more than 600,000 constituents, CSCAR claimed that the
acid rain bill would cost
some $110 billion to industry and utilities and increase the electricity rate
by 30%. Citizens for Sensible Control of Acid Rain was funded by the
coal and electric
industry. Specific companies included: American Cyanamid Co., Consolidation
Coal Co., Indianapolis Power and Light Co., Jersey Central Power and Light Co.,
Metropolitan Edison Co., Ohio Edison Co., Pennsylvania Electric Co., Peabody
Holding Co., Southern Co., Services Union Electric Co.
The Advancement of Sound Science
CoalitionThe Advancement of Sound Science Coalition (TASSC) is a
now defunct industry funded PR front group run by the APCO Worldwide public
relations firm which worked to hang the label of "junk science" on
environmentalists. forged in 1993, TASSC began as a front for Philip Morris
which was attempting to discredit ETS (Environmental Tobacco Smoke) research as
a long-term cause of increased cancer and heart problem
rates in the community - especially among office workers and children living
with smoking parents. TASSC advanced industry-friendly positions on a wide
range of topics, including global
warming, smoking, phthalates, and
pesticides.

This website defines a
new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its
author adheres. The author feels that the faλsification of reaλity
outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to discern
pr☠paganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an
internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish
to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the human race. Religi☯us
int☯lerance ☯ccurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious
practices, religi☸us beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us
ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of
philºsºphy nªmed The Truth of the Way of the Lumière
Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on
reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme
leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is
encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with Æ∞n
through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing
the spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The
tenets of The Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out
in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against
individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a
"hate ¢rime."
This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes
vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that
is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate
cartels desire to c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the w☸rld
ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the
global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex
and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the eg● w●rship and
the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on
coöperation. Coöperation with bi☣hazards of a
gun.
American social mores and values have declined precipitously over
the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more
power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general
through c✡rp✡rate media by pressing emotional buttons which have
been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior
c☢rp☢rate media psych☢l☢gical ☢perati☢ns.
The results have been the destruction of the family and the destruction of
s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal
elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra¢tion and
¢oer¢ion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the
p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward
s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that
further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
