Unliveable Series


People are becoming oblivious to what is happening around them!

Over the weekend I was appalled to read about the record-breaking number of powerful tornadoes which caused deadly carnage to areas of the US. However, it was not the devastation of the tornadoes that shocked me but the actual comments posted by the American people. "This is not news, it happens every year!" or "This normal." "It's just weather, get over it!"

Folks, these same comments, or at least similar, can be found under the record-braking fires around the world happening recently, or the record-breaking storms, floods, droughts, heatwaves, cold waves our sick world is enduring. But it's not just the weather... I wish it was!




At the beginning of the twentieth century a master key was unlocked which suddenly opened up the secret to the mystery of the ages! Daniel had prophesied almost 2,500 years earlier about the so-called "end-times," but an angel instructed him in Daniel 12:4: “To shut up these words and seal the book until the time of the end.” Daniel had written: “Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased!”

Daniel did as he was told and everything the prophet wrote was sealed but suddenly, at the beginning of the 20th century, that seal was unlocked and Daniel’s prophecy, as well as many other end-time prophecies, began to slowly unfold. Since then, the entire world has learned to run 'to and fro,' circumventing the globe by the millions daily. The world is now a tiny village compared to how it was in 1900 when the best way to get around was still a horse.



As COP26 ended in somewhat chaos, three words come to my mind! "Blah, blah, blah." Greta Thunberg might not be your favorite zoomer but her dismissal of our world leaders climate rhetoric as "blah, blah, blah" at the beginning of COP26 in Glasgow was not just spot-on but frighteningly so!

Let me explain, unfortunately for Greta Thunberg and her army of Zoomers and Generation Alphers, Millenials, Generation X, and Baby Boomers, the penny has not quite dropped. You see our leaders are spewing  "climate rhetoric-blah, blah, blah" for one reason and one reason only! And you can see it in their attitude, behavior, and manners.

You see, dear reader, they know we "can't save the planet," it is broken, much too far down the line to fix, they don't know how to stop the slide, hell-the "supercomputers" they have built to better understand and take the problems can't help them.




A maximum-security prison in regional NSW had be emptied of inmates after it fell victim to a "horrendous" mice plague. Rodents have been devouring crops and cutting a destructive swathe through properties in the state's west and south since spring 2020.

In June, they caused all 420 inmates at Wellington Correctional Centre in the state's west to be sent to other facilities after they damaged the building, a budget estimates hearing heard on Friday. Prison staff were working in buildings where cavities and ceilings were full of dead mice, Acting Corrective Services NSW Commissioner Kevin Corcoran told the hearing.



So far this summer the Northern Hemisphere has probably reached a new level in wildfires with Europe's Copernicus Atmospheric Monitoring System, (CAMS) claiming the number, size, persistency and intensity have been remarkable.

Out of control wildfires have been raging in northeastern Siberia since June and are still burning in many areas. North America has had an unprecedented year with the usual suspect California crippled by wildfires for the 5th year on record and no end in site but also Canada and the Pacific Northwest have also being ravaged.

Mediterranean countries have seen a massive uptick in wildfires this summer too with Greece, Spain and Italy all suffering horrendous wildfires and the season is not officially over.


Despite a lull over the winter, Australia’s mouse plague never ended – and now it’s threatening new areas of the country. Large numbers of mice continue to plague rural Australian communities as farmers fear yet another crop will be ruined. After dwindling in the winter cold, mouse populations have begun growing rapidly again, CSIRO mouse expert Steve Henry said.

“We’re quite concerned, given them the numbers that have been reported at the moment,” Mr Henry said. NSW Farmers vice president Xavier Martin, who operates a farm in Gunnedah, said the new wave of mice would be a hard blow for farmers still reeling from the plague earlier in the year. “A lot of farmers are on edge because they’re still trying to deal with contaminated hay and crops,” he said.




The remnants of Ida slammed the tri-state Wednesday night with fatal results, producing historic rainfall amounts that left millions under a flash flooding emergency and triggering multiple tornado warnings throughout the night — including for New York City. Most of New York City is under a Flash Flood Emergency until 11:30 p.m. -- with the National Weather Service urging the 9.1 million at-risk people to seek higher ground.


Dedicated to my best friend Nobson who became another cruel statistic of 2020 and who I can never replace.

"Othering!"

Othering is a phenomenon in which some individuals or groups are defined and labeled as not fitting in within the norms of a social group. It is an effect that influences how people perceive and treat those who are viewed as being part of the in-group versus those who are seen as being part of the out-group.

Othering also involves attributing negative characteristics to people or groups that differentiate them from the perceived normative social group.

It is an “us vs. them” way of thinking about human connections and relationships. This process essentially involves looking at others and saying "they are not like me" or "they are not one of us


Sunday, 15 August 2021 A week of deadly warnings as the UN issues a code-red for mankind, NOAA claim July was the hottest ever recorded, scientists claim the Gulf Stream is slowing, Europe hits its highest temp ever and 7 massive deadly quakes rumble in just 24 hours around the globe

You may not have noticed but it has been a very difficult week for many this week the UN claimed Global warming is 'unequivocally' human-driven, at an unprecedented rate as they issued a "code-red" for mankind. NOAA has also thrown its 10 cents into the bag claiming July was the hottest ever recorded. It was a week when Europe recorded its hottest temp ever when Italy saw a record-breaking 48.8 deg C, 120 deg F on the mercury, and Spain clocked a preliminary record of 47.2 C (116.96 F).

Climate scientists have detected warning signs of the collapse of the Gulf Stream, one of the planet’s main potential tipping points. The research found “an almost complete loss of stability over the last century” of the currents that researchers call the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). The currents are already at their slowest point in at least 1,600 years, but the new analysis shows they may be nearing a shutdown.


Today it was particularly wonderful, a warm August sun, fanned with a cool southwesterly breeze, the birds were singing, the fish were jumping and the insects chirping and the walk itself gave me a double shot of happy endorphins, lifting my spirit for the day ahead.

It is hard to imagine that just a few hundred kilometres south from this paradise the gates of hell have opened for many of my European neighbours.

An anti cyclone, ironically named Lucifer has parked its fat butt over the Mediterranean countries of Italy, Greece and Spain causing Sicily to record the hottest temperature ever in Europe when the mercury hit 48.8 deg C, 120 deg F yesterday beating the 48 deg C which was recorded in Athens Greece, back in 1977.


Wednesday, 11 August 2021 Climate scientists warn of the collapse of the Gulf Stream, one of the planet’s main potential tipping points. In the winter of 1962-63 something incredible happened in the UK. The entire British Isles was suddenly plunged into an unexpected and unprepared mini-ice-age event which was dubbed “the year the gulf stream stopped.”

Climate scientists have detected warning signs of the collapse of the Gulf Stream, one of the planet’s main potential tipping points. The research found “an almost complete loss of stability over the last century” of the currents that researchers call the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). The currents are already at their slowest point in at least 1,600 years, but the new analysis shows they may be nearing a shutdown.

Such an event would have catastrophic consequences around the world, severely disrupting the rains that billions of people depend on for food in India, South America, and West Africa; increasing storms and lowering temperatures in Europe; and pushing up the sea level in eastern North America. It would also further endanger the Amazon rainforest and Antarctic ice sheet.


Tuesday, 10 August 2021 Nowhere to run nowhere to hide: From a Covid Pandemic to vaccine hysteria, climate change, wildfires, heatwaves, droughts, floods cold-snaps, animal die-offs and a very vulnerable magnetic field: Earth appears to on the brink

Groups of families, friends and colleagues are becoming more and more divided with no choice but to pick sides regarding their vaccine status. There is so much mistrust, doubt, skepticism and suspicion of governments, scientists, (big Pharma) and the media.

While big Pharma have once again hit the jackpot and raked in billions of dollars from covid jabs, "We The People" are left bewildered, confused and confounded as to what is the correct action to take because we have been lied to so often before, we don't know what or who to believe anymore.

Is the vaccination an experimental medicine that has not yet been approved? Or is it perfectly safe? We don't know very much about them either, especially the long time side effects, we just don't know.


Monday, 9 August 2021 Unliveable series! On the very day, the UN claims Global warming is 'unequivocally' at an unprecedented rate Southern Europe becomes the third continent in the last three years to be devastated by out-of-control record-breaking wildfires after Aus and the US.

Firefighters on the Greek island of Evia say its survival hangs 'minute by minute' on heat, wind, and rain as few residents stay behind to fend off the flames.

The Prime Minister of Greece has described the situation as ‘nightmarish.' Firefighters are struggling to contain the flames near the capital Athens.
A record heatwave is fueling devastating wildfires across much of the southern Mediterranean and eastern Europe. Hundreds of blazes have broken out – many of them multiplying in recent days.

Italy, Croatia, Greece, Bulgaria, Turkey, Albania, Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Ukraine are tackling dozens of wildfires. Scientists have linked them largely to the intense heat - which they say is made more likely and more severe by global warming.


Saturday, 24 July 2021 Unliveable Series! Climate chaos continues: A week of record-breaking rainfall around the globe continued yesterday when an incredible "600 mm, 24 inches" of rain-drenched Maharashtra India in just 24 hours killing at least 110 people and more rain is forecast

A week of record-breaking rainfall around the globe continued yesterday when an incredible 600 mm, 24 inches of rain drenched Maharashtra India in just 24 hours killing at least 110 people with many more people missing.

Most of the deaths came from landslides, hundreds of villages were overwhelmed, sweeping away houses and leaving residents stranded according to the BBC.

The incredible deluge was the heaviest spell of rain in the area for decades. India is enduring its monsoon season but this amount of rain has not been witnessed by a generation.

Extreme weather continues to wreak havoc across the planet with farmers, agriculture, wildlife, and humans all taking a hit on the chin from the unusually bad weather.

Unusual and unseasonal cold, record-breaking heat and droughts, wildfires, and killer floods are creating absolute havoc in the summer of 2021 as climate change becomes, "CLIMATE CHANGED!"

Unusual freezing temperatures and frost have harmed and damaged trees which will affect next year's coffee crops in many parts of Brazil. The country has suffered all year with drought and flooding and the cold snap is the final slap in the face for coffee producers.

Last week it was Europe when almost 200 people died from record-breaking rainfall after record amounts of rain burst river banks in the areas and it was the speed of the rising water which caught many people unprepared. Governments and authorities are failing to warn and prepare people beforehand, that's because these extreme events are happening too rapidly for governments to react. This week it's China when a year's rainfall fell in a couple of hours.

Zhengzhou saw 624mm of rainfall on Tuesday, with a third of that amount falling between 16:00 and 17:00 alone, which "smashed historical records". It forecasted that parts of the region would continue to see "severe or extremely severe storms" and that the heavy rain would likely only end on Thursday. Many factors contribute to flooding, but a warming atmosphere caused by climate change makes extreme rainfall more likely.

It is early summer in the US and already Oregon is on the verge of suffering its biggest wildfire ever. The Bootleg Fire has been raging for two weeks and has become so intense it is creating its own weather, a phenomenon we have seen in California and Australia recently. So far the fire has ravaged nearly 400,000 acres and is approaching the biggest ever recorded wildfire in Oregon, which was the Long Haul Fire in 2012 which destroyed almost 560,000 acres. The fire is only 30% contained and has already destroyed an area the size of Los Angeles.

Upwards of nearly 100 wildfires are raging across 13 states in the US at this moment according to The National Interagency Fire Centre. The hot tinder-dry conditions will remain for the next two days with 3.5 million people under red flag warnings in the West for more wildfire outbreaks.

For years The Big Wobble has been warning people that extreme summer downpours and heatwaves would cause the places we call home, unliveable, for parts of the year at the very least.

More than 100 people have been killed and hundreds more missing in Germany, Belgium, and southern Holland after record amounts of rain have burst river banks in the areas but it was the speed of the rising water which caught many people unprepared. The UK was hit by a similar deluge at the beginning of this week and the government's advisory climate change committee told ministers the nation was even worse prepared for extreme weather events than it was five years ago, that's because these extreme events are increasing too rapidly for governments to react.

Thousands of tonnes of dead sardines, as well as other fish and marine life, washed up on the northern Pacific coast of Baja California Sur over the weekend in an event described by local environmentalists as the state’s worst-ever marine ecological tragedy.

Massive quantities of sardines as well as smaller amounts of other fish such as combers and anchovies along with sea cucumbers and lobsters, some of which were still alive, washed up on beaches on Sebastián Vizcaíno Bay, located off the northwest coast of the municipality of Mulegé. According to local media reports, about 15 kilometers of coastline were covered with dead sardines that attracted hungry seagulls and even coyotes. Locals told the newspaper El Sudcaliforniano that the event was unprecedented in terms of its magnitude.

Many people who read my posts covering increasing heat on our planet often leave unhelpful comments such as, "well it's summer," or, "it's supposed to be hot!" These people, of course, are very funny if not observant, however, they often miss the word, "record," or the phrase, "hottest ever." What is happening to our planet's weather recently is astonishing.

California's Death Valley is known to be a hot place, I get that, but it hit 130 degrees Fahrenheit (54.4 degrees Celsius) Friday for only the fifth time in recorded history, that's only five days out of more than 40,000 days on record. The record for the number of consecutive days at 125 degrees or higher is 10, set in 1913 (June 28-July 5). This year, Death Valley hit 126 on July 7 and will likely continue that stretch of days with 125-plus temperatures through Tuesday. This would be eight straight days, which would be the second-longest streak in recorded history (tying eight days in 2013). 

This large hailstone, being held with two hands, fell from a severe thunderstorm at approximately 7:35 pm CDT on April 28, 2021, near Hondo, Texas. NOAA’s NCEI verified that it's the largest hailstone on record to fall in Texas; it had a diameter of 6.416 inches and weighed 1.26 pounds. This severe weather outbreak across Oklahoma and Texas was one of eight separate billion-dollar disasters that struck the U.S during the first six months of 2021. (Resident submitted photo, courtesy of National Weather Service Forecast Office, San Antonio)

As June 2021 has just been announced as the hottest ever in the U.S. by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Tropical Storm Elsa was announced as the earliest 5th named storm in the Atlantic season ever, (typically the 5th named storm of a season usually arrives at about the end of August) the nation has been hit with a more than 30 billion-dollar disaster bill for 2021 in just over six-months.


Monday, 5 July 2021 Canadian record-breaking heat! We were warned this would happen by NASA, JFK, and Eisenhower, along with scientists Harry Wexler and Milutin Milankovitch back in the early '60s but the mighty military-industrial complex, Al Gore, NASA, NOAA, have been blaming us ever since

Unliveable Hell-Hole Series!

"Our very future depended on being the ones who first seized ownership of space."Control of space means control of the world,” Johnson declared. “From space, the masters of infinity would have the power to control the earth’s weather, to cause drought and flood, to change the tides and raise the levels of the sea, to divert the gulf stream and change temperate climates to frigid.” Vice President Johnson at Southwest Texas State University (1962).

If you were drawing up a list of possible locations for hell on Earth before this week, the small mountain village of Lytton in Canada would probably not have entered your mind. Few people outside British Columbia had heard of this community of 250 people. Those who had were more likely to think of it as bucolic. Nestled by a confluence of rivers in the forested foothills of the Lillooet and Botanie mountain ranges, the municipal website boasts: “Lytton is the ideal location for nature lovers to connect with incredible natural beauty and fresh air freedom.” Over the past seven days, however, the village has made headlines around the world for a freakishly prolonged and intense temperature spike that turned the idyll into an inferno.

The temperature continues to rise across the Western US and Canada smashing previous records in places where snow is not unexpected in June. The Mercury later today will break more records with temperatures hitting 47.1 deg C, (117 deg F) along the US Canadian border. 

Temperatures previously unknown to Canada and parts of the US-North West are making life extremely unpleasant for millions of people as an intense, prolonged, record-breaking, huge high-pressure zone that has settled over California up to Canada's Arctic territories and stretching inland through Idaho.

Temperatures previously unknown to Canada and parts of the US-North West are making life extremely unpleasant for millions of people as intense, prolonged, record-breaking, unprecedented, abnormal and dangerous because of a huge high-pressure zone from California up to Canada's Arctic territories and stretching inland through Idaho. Daytime temperatures were in the triple digits Fahrenheit, breaking records in places where many do not have air conditioning. Temperatures along the border are expected to hit a record=breaking 46.9 deg C, (116 deg F) later today, see map above.

According to the BBC, Canada has recorded its highest ever temperature as the country's west and the US Pacific north-west frazzle in the unprecedented heatwave.

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.

At least 101 people have died after flash floods and landslides hit Indonesia and East Timor on Sunday. Torrential rain sparked widespread destruction in the South East Asian neighbours, with water from overflowing dams submerging thousands of homes. The affected area stretches from Flores island in eastern Indonesia to East Timor. In Indonesia alone, 80 people have died with dozens still missing. Officials warn the toll could still rise.

"The mud and the extreme weather have become a serious challenge and the debris piling up has hampered the search and rescue team," Indonesian Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesperson Raditya Djati told BBC reporters. 

First fires, now flood and plagues from spiders, mice and locusts - it's been a terrible year for Australia's wildlife and livestock that are now trying to survive the rainfall pummelling New South Wales. Reports of spiders swarming by residents' homes to reach higher ground have spread on social media but animals are struggling across eastern Australia. In the worst flooding in decades, close to a metre of rain has fallen in some parts of New South Wales and more is forecast to come, forcing thousands of people to evacuate. From a farm in Kinchela Creek, one man posted an image of thousands of spiders running across a muddy field. 

"All the brown you can see is spiders trying to beat the floodwater," Matt Lovenfosse wrote on Facebook, adding that he expected them to soon be inside his house. In Macksville, Melanie Williams watched as "thousands" of spiders scaled the fence of her back yard, she told ABC News

Just over a year ago today the worst bushfire season ever recorded came to an end in Australia. The true extent of consumed forestry was found to be truly astonishing. Researchers at Western Sydney University’s Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment have analysed historic data on the extent of Australia’s extraordinary forest fires and found that the area burned in Australia during the 2019-2020 forest fires was an astounding 21%.

Previous "major fire" seasons have historically been around 2% of Australian forests consumed by fire. 3 billion animals were killed or injured during the unprecedented fires. The fires have gone this year but have been replaced by a Biblical plague of mice and what is being called a "once in a generation flood." Australia, farmers and people living in NSW rural communities are crying out for help to deal with an escalating mice plague that's threatening their health as well as the winter crop.


“Now learn this illustration from the fig tree: Just as soon as its young branch grows tender and sprouts its leaves, you know that summer is near.

 Available data from the Food and Agriculture Organisation released in March 2021, shows us that an increased occurrence and intensity of disasters is the new normal. Within the first few months of 2020, huge swarms of desert locusts began ravaging countries across the Greater Horn of Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and Southwest Asia - just one more hit to farmers already impacted by floods, cyclones, hailstorms, animal diseases, droughts, and other shocks.


The expected mass exodus is beginning. A new report reveals more than 12 million people have been internally displaced around the world since September 2020 mainly due to climate and weather-related disasters. In just 6 months, 12.6 million people, more than the population of Belgium have been displaced around the world. In just 23 days during January 2021, Indonesia suffered 185 disasters including two major earthquakes, seven volcano eruptions with a further 3 showing activity, as well as deadly tornadoes, landslides and floods killing and injuring thousands and displacing many more. These figures released two days ago by the Red Cross show just how desperate life is becoming for many people around the world thanks to increasing extreme weather events.

Kuala Lumpur, 16 March 2021  The new report reveals 12.6 million people have been internally displaced around the world in the last six months mainly due to climate and weather-related disasters, according to data available through the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre.
Yesterday the American government-run National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, (NOAA) released their monthly national report on the American weather which covers last months coldest February in more than 30 years and the record-breaking freeze which caused many parts of the country, especially Texas, to become, "unlivable!" 

It was a brutally cold month for Texans: February 2021 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.

I read somewhere 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 is, in all intents and purposes, destroying the very place in which we live?


Our world is collapsing, an implosion on a scale unimaginable just a few years ago. Without a doubt, if we continue on our current path we will lose our home and everything in it. 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. If our natural world can no longer support our basic needs then our civilisation will quickly descend into chaos.
