It has not got much attention with the world focused on coronavirus, but deforestation has surged in the Amazon rainforest this year, raising fears of a repeat of last year’s record-breaking devastation – or worse.With world distracted, the Amazon rainforest continues to burn
Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon hit a new high in the first four months of the year, according to data released Friday by Brazil’s National Space Research Institute (INPE), which uses satellite images to track the destruction.
A total of 1,202 square kilometres of forest – an area more than 20 times the size of Manhattan – was wiped out in the Brazilian Amazon from January to April, it found.
That was a 55 per cent increase from the same period last year, and the highest figure for the first four months of the year since monthly records began in August 2015.
“There is a web of connected factors [driving deforestation], and in the context of coronavirus, things are even more worrying,” said Greenpeace Brazil spokeswoman Carolina Marcal.Microplastics disrupt hermit crabs' ability to choose shell, study suggests
So the very Mind of Nature - the equatorial rainforest - is being wiped out - and the synthetic chemicals are destroying the minds of Nature....
“We hypothesize that either some aspect of the polyethylene is getting into them to affect their decision making, or else it is an indirect effect that the presence of the plastic in the tank might be influencing their feeding behaviour, for example,” Arnott said.As modern Westernized humans we can't help but spread destruction of ecology on Earth... and the destructive rate is accelerating.

So the destruction of ecology is barely mentioned in the corporate-state mass mind control media while the word "ecosystem" is now applied to things NOT part of ecology (like "the medical ecosystem" or "the internet ecosystem" etc.)
“It’s very discouraging when these events happen in places where people are trying to protect or restore salmon populations.”So one of the hopes of the Pandemic was that nature was being "restored" - but such cases are very localized and temporary.

global warming emissions keep rising - CO2 and Methane, etc.
People don't want to hear the "bad" news because they don't want to feel "guilty" - they want to make excuses and dismiss it - they don't want to have to feel the need to "do something." But we don't have to do anything !! Mother Nature is taking care of it! The East Siberian Arctic Shelf Methane Bomb will go off soon - doubling global warming levels very dramatically.

So as summer kicks in for the North - with abrupt global warming - then mass starvation will be much worse due to the Pandemic shutting down the economy...
Due to Westernization of the World - most farmers are focused on growing "cash crops" - not growing their own food. And so then markets become easily disrupted - and farmers are paid very very little - next to nothing and yet work the hardest!!
In Nature the wild animals eat till they are STUFFED and still the locusts live on. So humans would need to also preserve them. Meanwhile the cash source is gone. So they have means to buy equipment, etc. and as was mentioned - they can not sell the locusts for cash since it's not an export crop. In contrast grasshoppers are harvested in Cambodia and sold to Thailand as an export product. The grasshoppers are harvested at night - by hand. So how many locusts can people catch by hand? Do they have nets? No...
People say don't be so depressing and instead buck up and be a survivalist. I say be realistic! We are all going to die and planet Earth is just a speck of dust in the Universe. So instead find out what exists AFTER death!! Ghosts are real and yet what powers our spirit? Eternal energy as awareness aka Mother Nature - the Cosmic Mother. The ancients had numerous words for her - N/om was our original human culture - Qi for Daoists - Prana or Shakti in India - Aion in Pre-Socratic West Asia-Greece. What unites these words? Music - the secret that is very simple yet very radical - of complementary opposites as real natural resonance.
I posted several times on the Imperial Implosion of the US - at the time my posts seemed "fanciful" - and even silly - and very few people read this blog. And yet look what happened! The Truth is not a popularity contest. The truth speaks for itself.
