"Don't Sweat the Small Stuff" We will shortly be struggling in an "Unliveable Hell-Hole" and trying to cope with a situation where nearly 8 billion people will be trapped on a dying planet with no food to feed them.

The weight of snow and ice stretched the copper telephone wires until they reached the ground. East Dundry Lane, Somerset, January 1963 HowardDublin - Own work

 58 years earlier.

The UK experienced its worst winter since the mid 18th Century and for no specific reason, it just happened.


In the winter of 1962-63 something incredible happened in the UK. The winter had begun somewhat mild but stormy until just before Christmas, 1962. The entire British Isles was suddenly plunged into an unexpected and unprepared “Day After Tomorrow ESC” mini-ice-age event which was dubbed “the year the gulf stream stopped.” The devastating winter lasted from December 1962, through January and February and into March 1963 with snow-covering lasting well into April. The unexpected blast of cold, wind and snow crippled the country’s infrastructure, economy and labour market more or less overnight and brought the UK to its knees. The record cold and snow of 1962-63 was a record-breaker and was only preceded by the record-breaking winters of 1683–84, (known then as the "mini-ice-age") and 1739–40. The winter of 1962-63 was so severe the sea froze around the ports of the UK disrupting shipping imports, exports and fishing. On the 22nd of December, a “beast-from-the-east” weather front of high pressure, brought in brutal cold air from Russia and planted itself, firmly above the UK. Incredibly, this was followed by another high-pressure system bringing in even colder air from Iceland, Britain was the frozen meat in the sandwich. The extreme cold established itself over the UK and didn’t move for three months plunging the country’s roads and transport systems into chaos, isolating towns, cities and villages around the country. Great Britain’s infrastructure was not designed for a weather event like that and couldn’t cope. Cold northern winds brought blizzards sweeping across the country dumping incredible amounts of snow with drifts as high as 20ft, or 6 + metres in many places, an incredible amount of snow for the UK. The relentless snow, along with cold and fierce winds carried on through January and February causing misery and hardship for millions of British people. Many hospitals struggled to cope and thousands died from the cold. Shops struggled to keep up with supplies and farming was impossible, resulting in thousands of dead cattle and frozen crops. The whole three months turned into a modern-day disaster, highlighting the inadequacy and fragility of modern-day infrastructure when hit with a once-in-a-lifetime extreme weather event.


This inadequacy has suddenly become increasingly evident around the world recently, long after Britain's record-breaking winter of 1962-63 many countries, some rich and some not are being hit by extreme weather events, rendering their countries, or parts of their countries, unlivable and it's getting worse very quickly.


We didn’t know it at the time of course but the winter of 1962-63 gave the Brits and the rest of the world just a tiny glimpse into future extreme weather events around the world. How could we have known then? In just 60 years time our whole world would be in danger of a sixth extinction event?


Not only are we now facing the prospect of losing crops, plants, animals and marine life, the very food we need to survive, but also, insects, bees and butterflies, the small but equally important species which pollinate flowers, fruit and crops. Our home, the actual planet itself is in danger of dying. Human greed and neglect have brought the entire planet to its knees in just a short time, the actual collapse started around 60 years ago, in fact, just five years before Britain's record-breaking winter. We didn’t know it then ("NASA" did have an idea back then), "climate change" had arrived, “baby steps at first,” but, natural disasters, volcanic activity, major earthquakes, floods, droughts, extreme weather events along with other extreme anomalies suddenly started increasing, while soil, plants, animals and microorganisms suddenly began decreasing. Very gradually, and very quietly our ecosystem here on Earth began to crumble and now just 60 years later we as a people have an inevitable breakdown of the very life support system which is keeping nearly 8 billion people alive. 


It is much worse than we are led to believe!


In March 2021, the American government-run National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, (NOAA) released their monthly national report on the American weather which had just recorded its coldest February in more than 30 years and the record-breaking freeze which caused many parts of the country, especially Texas of all places, to become, "unlivable!" February 2021 was a brutally cold month for Texans: It brought the coldest air since December 1989 to much of the state. Several locations across central Texas — including Austin and Waco — broke records for the longest streak of below-freezing temperatures. Every county in Texas was under a “Winter Storm Warning” in mid-February and experienced wind chill values below zero as far south as the Rio Grande River and northeastern Mexico. The Texan infrastructure just like Britain’s 63 years earlier was brought to its knees. At one point eight million Texans were boiling their water to make it safe to drink, others were reduced to drinking a “yellow, foul-tasting sludge” from their taps, while platoons of plumbers and engineers struggled to repair the damage done to countless homes and businesses by the cruel winter storm. Nearly as many were without electricity for almost a week. Many Texans faced food shortages as grocery stores tried to stay stocked, huge crowds descended on food pantries already under stress due to the Covid-19 pandemic which continued to threaten a state where, according to NBC News data, almost 50,000 people had died of Covid-19 and 2.6 million people had been infected. At the height of the storm 1,445, public water systems reported service disruptions due to the cold, affecting 14.4 million Texans across 190 counties. Also, while power had been restored in much of Texas after the state's power grid buckled in the face of the historically low temperatures, many people were also hit with massive electricity bills because scarce power means higher prices in the state's market-based system. Millions of Texans were already suffering from a pretty deep recession caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Ironically the US had just recovered from “unlivable” weather events in September and October 2020: Historic, record-breaking wildfires had burned across the entire Western coast and unprecedented tropical activity churned up the Atlantic causing a record-bustin’ hurricane season, along with large swathes of the country struggling with record heat waves. What’s more, the first nine months of 2020 brought a record-tying 16 billion-dollar worth of weather disasters to the nation, according to scientists from NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information. Seven of those events — western wildfires, a Western/Central U.S. drought and heatwave, Hurricane Sally, Hurricane Laura, the Midwest derecho and Hurricane Isaias and the February cold-snap — all occurred in just a seven month period after June 2020. 

What happened to the UK in 1962/63 was a precursor as to what we are beginning to see in certain areas of the world. Vast areas are now becoming impossible to live in due to climate change and extreme weather events. Many of the areas have for years been heavily populated but are now, at least for certain parts of the year,

"unlivable."


At the beginning of 2020, the entire eastern coastline of Australia, a vast area covering millions of square miles, was engulfed by flames, 3 billion animals were killed or injured, almost 25% of temperate forestry was lost as was 60% of the Australian summer crop production. Many people died, thousands of houses and businesses were lost as drought, unprecedented heat and tinder-dry conditions sparked the biggest wildfire season by a country mile for the Aussie people. A normal severe wildfire season in Australia would normally destroy 2% of temperate forestry, this one burned 25%! We are not prepared for what is coming. Let me repeat that: “We are not prepared for what is coming.”

“Among other things, you'll find that you're not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behaviour. You're by no means alone on that score, you'll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You'll learn from them—if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn't education. It's history. It's poetry.” 

― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye


An expected mass displacement has begun and will increase dramatically as this decade unfolds. A new report on the 16 of March 2021 claimed more than 12 million people have been internally displaced around the world in the last six months, mainly due to climate and weather-related disasters. In just 6 months, 12.6 million people, more than two million a month and more than the entire population of Belgium have been displaced around the world, beginning a trend that will dominate the ‘20s. In just “23 days” during January 2021 Indonesia suffered an incredible "185 disasters" including two major earthquakes, “seven volcano eruptions” along with a further 3 showing activity, as well as deadly tornadoes, landslides and floods killing and injuring thousands and displacing many more. Indonesia’s neighbour the Philippines was battered by Typhoon Goni, the world’s most ferocious storm last year. Three storms battered the Philippines in as many weeks, leaving over 3 million people destitute. These figures released by the Red Cross show just how desperate life is becoming for many people around the world thanks to increasing extreme weather events and other natural disasters. These figures are just the tip of the iceberg as to what awaits our unsuspecting world in the decade to come. In many ways Covid-19 is complicating matters concerning humanitarian support, however, the virus itself will become another reason for mass displacement as millions of people become jobless and homeless. Many sceptics reading this post will claim these disasters have always happened around the world! And so they have but... never on this scale before and they are increasing in size and regularity.


Nothing sold to us can be more “pure or more valuable” than what is, “freely,” available and that will become very clear to mankind in the very near future and is, in many ways an indication and proof of creationism as opposed to evolution and gives us a wide panorama as to why we have found our planet hurtling toward calamity in 2021. Human or any other life form has here on Earth has “NOT,” evolved into a natural selection of the fittest and finest who will survive the weak. On the contrary, our world is on the verge of collapse for everyone and everything, not only the weak but the powerful, rich, fat and greedy alike. Despite mind-blowing technological advances, mankind has not been intelligent enough to see this simplest of deceptions. When God created Adam, he was given a “free choice,” follow his heart, freeing him up for an eternity in paradise, or selling it, for a lie, condemning himself and the human race to death. Incredibly he bought the lie... And the rest of us have been following suit ever since.


I read somewhere (I think it was a quote from “The Four Horsemen'') that to really understand something is to be liberated from it. Yet, how can we liberate ourselves from our vain attempt at global progress, which has, in all intents and purposes, destroyed the very place we live in? The very word progress means a movement towards a refined, improved, or desired state. Incredibly, our fantastic advances in technology have “systematically destroyed” the very place we are trying to improve and that place will very soon be unlivable for all forms of life due to our hubris! We have become the perfect parasitoid, a parasite that eventually kills its host.


Indeed, our world is in a state of collapse, an implosion on a scale unimaginable just a few years ago, the carnage which is about to be unleashed has been sneakily growing under our noses and is now inevitable. It is now well known among experts and many once doubting sceptics that without a doubt if we continue on our current path (which we will) we will lose our home and everything in it. It is now an undeniable fact, mankind’s environment is collapsing just as fast as its society. Planet Earth’s resources are dwindling at an alarming rate. Animals, plants, fossil fuels, minerals, water, air and soil are all diminishing at an unsustainable speed while the world’s population is increasing. We will shortly have a situation where nearly 8 billion people will be trapped on a dying planet with no food to feed them.


Unliveable Hell-Hole


Untold millions of people are being displaced along with billions of animals as their environment is gobbled up by rich planners and callous businessmen. More animals and an ever-increasing number of humans too are lost every year due to wildfires, drought, heat, cold, floods, disease, neglect, over-farming and natural disasters. Many billions of birds are dying around the world. Billions of fish are being brutally overfarmed and are not being replenished which is causing a knock-on effect in our oceans causing other fish and mammals and migrating seabirds to die of starvation. Crops are failing around the world along with soil erosion due to climate change. Millions of farms are going bust due to Covid-19, pest and disease invasions and extreme weather events. We are beginning to see huge populated areas of the world which are becoming impossible to live in, areas that for years have been heavily populated and teeming with life and vegetation. But now, for certain parts of the year at the very least, have become "unlivable," due mainly to extreme climate events such as wildfires, droughts, flooding and hurricanes.


The population of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians, reptiles, insects, bees and butterflies have seen an incredible decline of almost 70% since 1970. Just stop here and wonder! Can you imagine if 70% of humans had died since 1970? Well, I’m sorry but, it is about to happen to us in the “VERY NEAR” future and I think we are too late, we can’t stop it and it will happen very quickly too, we are seeing it now, our cities are becoming unlivable at least for parts of the year due to extreme weather events and our fragile infrastructure, which cannot cope just when we need it. Have we left it too late to stop the decline? Hard to get your head around it, isn't it?


The Paradox


The astonishing paradox is the explosion of technology. For almost 6,000 years the best way to get anywhere was on a horse and then suddenly technology appeared to explode around the beginning of the 20th Century. For the first time ever we saw the introduction of mass man-made machinery. Everything from automobiles to tractors was rolled out on mass production lines in large numbers decreasing cost and at the same time becoming available to the normal working man. But the benefits masked a more cynical ideal, mankind suddenly had found another use for these production lines, bombs and weapons could be mass-produced and for the first time ever in the history of mankind, people could be slaughtered on an industrial scale.


We have reached a point now where mankind can destroy our planet many times over. The technology explosion has been insane, the first people to fly a plane were the Wright brothers in 1903, just 66 years later we had landed on the moon and just 100 years after that historic flight a spacecraft had visited every planet in our Solar System. A guy called Buckminster Fuller created something called the Knowledge Doubling Curve. He noticed that until 1900 human knowledge had doubled approximately every century but by the end of World War II, knowledge was doubling every 25 years. We are now doubling our knowledge in less than a year but, according to IBM, the tech company, we will soon be doubling our knowledge every 12 hours. And of course, the military is light years ahead of the rest of us.


According to the Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, the 2020s are set to be a decade of dramatic economic and social upheaval, reversing many of the trends of the past 40 years and this report came out before the Covid-19 pandemic swept the world. Add to this another billion mouths to feed, this decade will carry on producing extreme weather events, whether it be, record heat, cold, rain or droughts and it doesn't need an expert to know we are in for a rough ride, a very rough ride. Merrill Lynch says the era of globalisation from 1981-2016 has ended and is reversing. The bank's analysts expect inflation and interest rates to increase from their current 5,000-year lows. The bank is expecting wealth inequality to fall next decade as voters demand redistribution and taxes rise in what it describes as "the decade of peak". In the 2020s we will have another billion mouths to feed. Add into the mix the Covid-19 disaster and then you suddenly realise we have a huge problem.


2019 was already a disaster for much of the world's farming industry but it will be paled into significance as we approach the halfway mark of a Covid-19 infected 2021. A new report from Bloomberg claims thousands of pigs are rotting on compost heaps as grocers run out of meat. Covid-19 outbreaks at slaughterhouses have led to the largest pig culling effort the U.S. has ever seen. Hundreds of thousands of animals are already backed up, and CoBank estimates 7 million animals may have to be destroyed this quarter alone. That’s about a billion pounds of meat lost to consumers. Some farms in Minnesota are even using chippers -- reminiscent of the 1996 movie “Fargo” -- to grind up carcasses to be spread out for compost. Rendering plants are seeing higher volumes of hogs turned into everything from gelatin to sausage casings. Behind that enormous waste are thousands of farmers, some of whom are holding on in the hope that slaughterhouses get back up and running before animals get too heavy. Others are cutting their losses and culling herds. Pig “depopulation,” to coin an industry euphemism, highlights the disconnect that’s occurring as the pandemic sickens workers trying to churn out food supplies in mega-plants across the U.S.


Back in 2019, a crisis emerged across three continents as extreme weather conditions and disease began to bite the farming industry leaving world banks warning the 2020s would be a decade of dramatic economic and social upheaval as another billion mouths will need to be fed. This statement, of course, was made well before the coronavirus had jumped from animal to human.


In 2019, Europe was losing 1000 small farms a day, due to a crop decline, leading to price rises. Officials were using the word 'disaster' to describe the widespread crop failures happening all over America and in Asia, pork prices had doubled after more than a quarter of the entire global pig population had been slaughtered due to an outbreak, (also in China) of African swine fever.


Another big factor, destroying crops in 2019 was the weather. In many parts of Europe, Ireland and the UK it began to rain at the end of September 2019 and didn't stop until the end of January 2020. It was even worse for the U.S., which witnessed “unprecedented” crop failures all across the country. The endless rain and horrific flooding during the early months of 2019 resulted in tremendous delays in getting crops planted in many areas, and then snow and bitterly cold temperatures turned the harvest season into a complete and utter nightmare all over the country, resulting in their worst agricultural year in history.

Keep telling people Gary! Maybe the blinded masses will eventually hear and or see it, because from my view point today no one seems to see any of this.
Question....if we have only been keeping records of weather for approx. 150 years, then how do we know that 1683 and 1739 were as stated?
The UK winter event of 1962/63 that you described was the same year Colorado legally started to use and make man made snow for their ski resorts. Hmmmm, try to connect those dots and you might consider geoengineering's birth and trials seem to be a coincidentally related time period....??
The TX freeze this winter of 2021..... minus what was it, 8 or 18F? Minus=below zero temps....in south eastern TX, same latitude/longitude as SWFL and that same day TX was below zero SWFL was 85 above zero. Hello!! Do people really think that was natural? If so we really are going down fast this time. If no one recognizes what is really causing all our woes then there is below zero chance of ever becoming better or normal again and yes it's over because without a healthy fully functional environment we are dead. No insects we die. No wildlife we die. No plants and trees, we die! It's that simple and no gmo Franken food or synthetic meat is going to ever save the day it is in fact several of those nails in our collective coufins.
Gray's point about technology is spot on correct and IT is why we are collapsing absolutely.
Radiation poisoning it is. Satellites in the tens of thousands maybe more are surrounding our planet like a new atmosphere beaming RADIATION on to all life on earth 24/7 and for too many years now. Radiation....how many nuclear disasters? Radiation....how many devices do we sit in front of, put up to our heads, walk through and under, and how many diseases do people have? Hmmmm, think there might be a connection? Does anyone ever think anymore, are they capable anymore is probably the question to ask.
Here in SWFL we are once again with poison Gulf of Mexico waters breathing in toxic fumes from ongoing red tide (since Oct. 2020) and now turning in to toxic green algae killing all the fish....again... yet real estate is in another boom like never before. People are paying 1, 2 million,dollars for flesh eating disease waterfront property(local nbc news reported a woman who swam in the Gulf on Ft. Myers Beach just this past week and got flesh eating disease on her legs).
That says what? INSANITY. And, in that nbc news report of this womans legs they also tell you that this is normal!!! Lol.....that so many people "thought" swimming in the once pristine Gulf was good for you, it used to heal cuts, now it infects those cuts with a flesh eating disease that has many ending up with amputations being the only way to stop it. Why would the news tell viewers NO NO NO, the Gulf is not that good healing water you "thought", it's highly toxic "normal" full of all kinds of bad infectious organisms... very valuable to consumers though with waterfront home prices. What!?
I hear ya Gary and I agree 100%, we are done. Ignorance is bliss because it blinds you. So they may as well be wearing their masks as eye coverings.

I remember the UK winter of 62/63 like it was yesterday, I was 4 years old.
We rented part of a farmhouse, with just open fires for warmth, ice formed on the inside of the windows.
The farmer's teenage sons built a full sized igloo in their back garden and were living in it. The remnants were still to be seen in early June !
Great times, life was such fun in those days, I feel thankful that I grew up during the 60's and 70's, I pity the kids of today.

Rapture and End Times said...

Very true. It is coming. For most people, the concept of “the end of the world” is more fantasy than reality. But, the Holy Bible makes it very clear that the end will come. 4 countdowns give us a clue for the timing of the Rapture and End Times: https://raptureandendtimes.com/2021/05/29/after-the-rapture-the-end-of-the-world/

A'SaN said...

A perfect case for receiving NO thanks for Speaking THE TRUTH. But the GREATER TRUTH concerns how all this was brought to pass and Metatronic technology is seen for what it is. In the hands of most humans the worst kind of drug imaginable. Explosive!

After the rapture of the Church the 7 year tribulation begins and much of earth's remaining human population will be killed during the 7 Seals of God Judgments and the the 7 Bowls of Wrath Judgments, and this time is VERY near. Food shortage problem solved.

To All Peoples: A Message of Salvation
The World that is now, has rejected God. The hardship and plagues we have been experiencing are Gods attempts to WAKE You UP!!! What HAS happened is NOTHING compared to the catastrophe that is on the way. No amount of prepping, praying, hoping, thinking, meditating, crying, drinking, positivity, optimism-NOTHING, NO THING, NO THOUGHT, Absolutely Nothing, will halt, stop or lighten what is next.

You do Not have to be here!! How can I be so Sure, you ask? Because you can be Saved by the Blood of the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, and He has such a great love for His Children, that those who are Saved, will not be living through that horror show. Come one, come all- and learn a simple truth: God is not blind to what all is happening. There IS a Heaven and there is a Hell. ----BUT****There is a Blessed Hope: There is freedom in Jesus Christ. Even if this message of God's goodness and Mercy, and message of Salvation through Jesus Christ, brings persecution, I will count it greater a blessing to have pulled a soul from Hell, than to be silent in fear, and see that soul lost forever in Hell . *For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believe; to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.* To have Faith in Jesus Christ, is trusting in His grace to bring you to Himself, to save you from hell. There are only 2 Commandments that we as Christians are to live by:the first is To love the Lord thy God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. the second is like unto this: to Love thy neighbor as thyself. To love someone is to tell them the truth, no matter how painful it sounds, for then the pain can be lessened by finding Peace in Christ Jesus. I myself would want to be told the truth, so I am telling this to you. Time is so short, now.

KNOW that God IS in control. Do NOT take the vaccine or get microchipped, and then also tell others that Jesus is the ONLY Name by which you may get into Heaven; there is NONE other. It is NOW becoming GLOBALLY MANDATORY that all get the Shots. These people who are calling the shots are out to steal your souls!! DO NOT LET THEM! Instead, turn to The Lord Jesus, and call on His name, and He WILL free you from your bonds of sin and shame. Please do not delay.

From the King James Bible; The Gospel according to John:
3:16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 3:17For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

3:18He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 3:19And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 3:20For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 3:21But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
---

We all can see that a BIG something is coming, and that it is not based on our own physical understanding of what we see is happening. It is God's will. Is not God, He who sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for us, so that through Him we may be saved and live eternally with Him in Heaven; is He not greater than anything that is on this earth? To know Gods blessed salvation through Jesus Christ, one must become Born Again... Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and You shall be saved.

If you get to this point and believe, please feel free, as God leads, to pass this message on.

I was surprised to read your landing page article, got to the end, and realized you left your readers with no hope at all. Read "the back of the Book" and there is absolutely the most glorious hope possible. Just as surely as Revelation 6 through 18 will come to pass, Revelation 19 through 22 will also come to pass.

Good point Sir. And it is a point I use throughout the posts. Thank you.

Hey Gary. Storm season is cooking up again, me and my family got lucky last year, thank God. We live in SELA and dodge many record breaking storms, now it looks like it's going to be bad again with Gulf storm zeroing in on us already. I pray for everyone to stay safe & God bless. Amen

Gary Walton said...

Yes, good luck Melly, storm season's beginning earlier and ending later every year... stay safe buddy x
