“Pause, take a deep breath, and triangulate”
An OPINION By Frederick Sinclair
A century of rapid industrial development has carried humanity into a trend of valuing quantity over quality and failure to make technology work with the biology of living systems. World leaders, economists and policy makers, and regulators as well as investors, CEOs and we the people have lost sight of human health considerations and protection of our life supporting environment when designing, testing and approving products for development and release. The introduction and industrial use of PFAs (forever chemicals), plastics, pesticides, toxic food additives, heavy metals and myriad unnatural pollutants are being identified in the bloodstreams of most people tested as well as in the soil, the water and the air that we breath. The frenzy to maximize communications in an exploding information age sees wireless microwave radiation bombarding the entire planet with electromagnetic pollution (Electrosmog). Concerns of global warming and climate change are resulting in clandestine Geoengineering projects that create chemtrails, artificial cloud cover, toxic fog, support programs to block out the sun and increase risky weather manipulation. The HARP (High Altitude Research Project) is bombarding the ionosphere with extremely high powered radio waves that also impact the Ozone layer. More than 900 early atmospheric above ground atomic and thermonuclear hydrogen bomb tests have exposed the entire planet to unimaginable radiation. An unquenchable thirst for energy and the mining of raw materials continues stoking the fires of unsustainable living. The list goes on and on and it is obvious that our industrialized century of ignore-ance is coming home to roost.
There have been attempts to control the negative consequences of rapidly growing industry and technology. Laws have been enacted to integrate impacts to health, safety and environmental protection into the process of governing and regulation. New York State recently added a Constitutional amendment that guarantees its people the right to clean air, water and a healthful living environment. Well intended protections, however, have been co-opted by industry and technology cartels imposing their agendas and influencing, in order to sidestep ‘bothersome’ protections. Special interest ownership and control of mass media intentionally keeps the public uninformed, preoccupied and unaware.
The way out of this deepening whole humanity has gotten itself into involves is first, stop digging. Pause, take a deep breath, and triangulate where we are and set a new course using the past, present and future. We as a culture and as individuals have to take ownership of our past successes and failures; ‘the good the bad and the ugly’. It all has to be unpacked, processed and let go in favor of new directions. There has to be a new attitude and conscious intention that recaptures life and continuously shapes it in the eternal NOW. You, as an awakening individual, unafraid, becoming informed and acting with conviction not only improves your life but it evolves the group consciousness of mankind and marks an entrance for the road to redemption.
