CO2 good or bad ? The one gas essential for all life on earth is now universally termed a pollutant. Nuclear power is now classed as green energy?
O'h I forgot debate is not allowed any more. I must burn those old science books and ask the search engine providers to algorithm out alternative science from results as fake news. Silly Me I am too late they thought of it first.
It was even worse in the 1970's when they told us were were heading for an ice age and electricity was in short supply in the hard winters. They said Nuclear power was deadly and would pollute the planet for 10's of thousands of years so we needed to burn more coal instead. Yes they had us in fear then too.
Wake up world question everything and your consciousness will rise.
Agendas politics and science need clear boundaries for us to grow in understanding of the world we live in.
If someone in power tells you there is no debate it means they can't win one.
The politics of fear must be ignored and understood for our consciousness to rise a level.
The greening effect of CO2 is real and even recognised at NASA also know as Never a Straight Answer. Temperature rises do release CO2 from the oceans. Does CO'2 release increase air temperature ? A chicken an egg situation.
I am more inclined to think the sun's activity and changing distance from the earth which causes ice ages as the magnetic poles shift has some relevance to the peaks and troughs in out climate, Varying amounts of cosmic rays as the sun travels through the universe could also be important.
The thousands of nuclear explosions below the pacific oceans in the 20th century may just have warmed the sea a bit too and melted some ice. Oh no it looks like three is a debate, Silly me we are not allowed one. Blame yourselves for impending doom not the governments. They will be happy then.
Lets not keep protesting for the World Government Agendas and question more. Science can contain the mind or free it. The choice is yours,
VIRIDITAS
The meaning of the word Viriditas describes Nature’s divine healing power, transferred from plants to humans.
The piece is an exploration of experiential wisdom, of our interconnectedness with nature, and of the need for flourishing feminism consciousness in our world today.

2 sec hand held exposure a la Chris Friel. Cross-processed with Photoshop 'curves' which were mildly adjusted from the default settings, then generally mashed about a bit until you get what you see here.
Actually, I just thought of a small aside. The image was taken around the time of the 'BIG RAINS' , it might even have tipped it down later that evening, but to get to the point. A couple of days later, I noticed that part of the land slightly to the right of where I was standing for this shot was roped off with that red & white hazard tape they use. It would seem that the rains had the effect of washing out the ground, and big hole had opened up there. One of those things I guess.
“The detectors don’t induce the phenomenon of wave function collapse; conscious observation does. Consciousness is like this giant roving spotlight, collapsing reality wherever it shines—and what isn’t observed remains probability. And it’s not just photons or electrons. It is everything. All matter…A testable, repeatable fault in reality.”

A menudo me acuerdo de aquellos momentos que nunca sucedieron. Esos que quise haber tenido pero por un motivo u otro dejé pasar.
Recuerdo aquella carta en tu buzón, decir que no cuando debí, nadar hasta el final sin mirar atrás o fotografiar aquel instante mágico.
Me viene a la memoria cuando te pedí perdón por ser un capullo, cuando no aparté la vista la vez que me miraste o de aquel instante en el que no me reprimí.
En ocasiones sueño con esa noche en la que permití a la lluvia caer fría sobre mi cuerpo desnudo, con cantar a gritos en el concierto de mi grupo preferido, con darte las gracias o con acudir en tu ayuda a tiempo.
Otras veces me viene a la cabeza cuando no te juzgué, cuando conversamos sin motivo aparente, cuando guardé silencio en el oportuno momento o incluso de la vez que te abracé cuando lo pediste con la mirada.
Como de todos estos, a menudo me acuerdo de otros tantos momentos que nunca sucedieron. Algunos todavía estoy a tiempo de cumplir, otros quedarán en mi consciencia para siempre.

With a heavy grimace; old, sad, and worthless. Walking with a slow step, I’m carrying my grief. Far from the big city that has seen me flourish in the mysteriously strangest streets, I feel my soul start to darken. No one sees my end, nor do they care about my grief. No one wants my friendship. I’m alone with my bitterness, and so I’ve wandered since the day I arrived. When after a crazy dream, I abandoned everything and said goodbye.

This is my entry for Kiara's contest. And I chose to recreate this photo in my own way.
I had a lot of fresh concepts in mind, but thought this one seemed more fitting. Although this is shitty, I personally like it.
In Spiritual reality, we are One. Regardless of any perceived differences, the core of our being is our Consciousness. Everything comes from consciousness, seen and unseen, physical and non-physical, illusion and reality, everything from our Unity of Consciousness.
This Truth has been spoken by the Mystics and Sages throughout the ages. Now, quantum physics is revealing this Truth to scientists. What will they do with the Truth?
Thanks to the following for these images:
A person who does not meditate does not know how to expand his consciousness. He has narrow vision as if he is looking through a window, but when he learns to expand his consciousness, it is like going through a door. It is exactly as if one were looking through a small window in a house. From the window his view is very limited, but when he goes out of the house, he has a much wider view. When he goes to the roof, he can see even more clearly. As one’s consciousness expands, his vision becomes clearer, and he understands things as they are. - Swami Rama

Burke and Wills Menindee Camp Pamamaroo Creek 26/10/1860 to 26/01/1861.
The story of Burke and Wills has become an integral part of the Australian consciousness. Burke and Wills and their fate seem to encapsulate and justify the fear that many urban Australians have of the vast, lonely, dry wilderness which occupies over two-thirds of the continent. Of course the truth about the ignominious demise of Burke and wills is more pedestrian. What went wrong with their expedition can best be summed up by those well-known human failings - incompetence, arrogance, inflexibility and racial bigotry. The expedition was ill-conceived from the outset. It is now generally agreed that the raison d'etre of the whole undertaking was overwhelming pride. This pride was a result of the newly found wealth of Melbourne (a direct result of the gold rushes) and the newly created colonial independence of Victoria. Public enthusiasm for the expedition was high. Public subscriptions exceeded £3000 and the government contributed £6000. Under ordinary circumstances this would have been adequate funding but over half of the funds were spent on purchasing and importing twenty-four camels from Afghanistan. The committee then advertised for a man to lead the expedition. They had thirteen applicants out of whom they chose Irish-born police inspector Robert O'Hara Burke. Burke had no experience and no apparent knowledge of the Australian bush. Why he was chosen to lead an expedition which was going to travel across thousands of miles of rugged and unknown terrain remains a mystery. It was not so much an expedition as a public display. The camels and packhorses were carrying twenty-one tons of equipment including 120 mirrors as presents for Aborigines, sixty gallons of rum, four gallons of brandy, supplies of rockets, arms and vast qualities of dried food.
On 6 September when the expedition reached Swan Hill Burke sold off a large quantity of stores and hired two new men. In Balranald the foreman, Ferguson, quit; Burke dismissed Creber, Cowen, Fletcher, the cook Drakeford, and Langan; and some stores including the expedition's entire supply of lime juice were sold. At the Darling River camp at Pamamaroo Creek Burke insisted that all items weighing over thirty pounds be abandoned. This decision meant that neither Dr Beckler nor the naturalist Ludwig Becker could carry their instruments. Becker left the expedition at Menindee. Prior to Becker's departure the second-in-command, Landells, realised that he would never be able to work with Burke and resigned. At Menindee news arrived from Melbourne that another continental crossing was about to commence. All pretence about the desire to 'enquire into the report upon the exploration of the Australian interior' was abandoned. Burke could not tolerate the thought that he might be beaten. On 19 October Burke, Wills, Brabe, King, Gray, McDonough, Patton and an Afgan cameleer Dost Mohammed left Menindee. Wright was left behind with instructions to bring stores and provisions and to follow the main party in a week to Cooper’s Creek. The main party reached Cooper Creek on 11 November and on 27 November the famous Camp 65 was established under a coolibah tree on the banks of the river. On 16 December 1860 with six camels, one pony, and Wills, Gray and King, Burke began the final push north to the Gulf of Carpentaria. Disaster now followed disaster on the trip north and back to Cooper Creek. On 17 April on the way back Charley Gray died. Four days later Burke, Wills and King reached the Cooper Creek depot. They were exhausted and in desperate need of fresh supplies. To their horror the depot had been abandoned only hours earlier. On a tree William Brahe, the depot foreman, had carved DIG. Confronted with an empty depot, a small cache of supplies and the prospect of starvation, Burke had to decide whether he was going to go back to Menindee or attempt a 320 kilometre walk across the desert to a cattle station at Mount Hopeless. Once again Burke made the wrong decision. He decided to head for Mount Hopeless. It is perhaps the most telling comment about the character of Burke he ignored his only chance saving himself, Wills and King. It is almost certain that the local Aborigines could have saved the trio. But Burke saw himself as the conqueror, as a member of a superior civilisation. The idea that he could be saved from death by a group of 'savages' was unthinkable. The base camp in Menindee was thus occupied by part of the group from 19 Oct 1860 to 26 Jan 1861 before they headed back to Melbourne. Only John King made it back alive from Cooper Creek because he had accepted the hospitality of the Aboriginal people there. Dost Mahomet returned and lived in Menindee and worked for Ah Chung the Chinese baker. He died in 1880 and was buried just outside the town. The base camp at Pamamaroo Creek near Menindee was occupied from 19 October 1860 to 26 January 1861. Before setting off north Burke stayed in the hotel in Menindee and not with his men at Pamamaroo Creek depot. The main weir on the River Darling diverts water into Lake Pamamaroo which becomes the water supply of Broken Hill and the source of irrigation water for the fruit and vines around Menindee.
