TBW: Documenting The Most Important Decade In The History Of The World!

An Open Letter From A Good Friend In America! What do goats, tap water and PCR tests have in common? | Catholics, take note: Biden's China 

Dear Family and Friends,
I will be the first to admit plentiful ignorance about what exactly a virus is and what does it do in the body - is it friend or foe? My admittedly confused assumption prior to watching the two videos below, was the understanding that viruses were extremely small, alive, can easily pass from person to person and through most any mask not electrostatically charged, exists mainly to do harm and could potentially replicate out of control to do much damage or even cause death. Full Post Here


Unliveable Series

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.

Bugaloo 2021
On July 8, President Joe Biden stated that: "The likelihood there’s going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely.

Fifty-nine years ago JFK was assassinated, most didn't know at the time but it was the beginning of a paradigm shift for the Anglo-American super-powers. The old British Empire had all but collapsed after two World Wars and the US was embroiled in a cold war with Soviet Russia. The most powerful country in the world began to slowly crumble on the day of JFK's murder and has never recovered. This month they left Afghanistan sneaking away in the middle of the night with Joe Biden washing his hands of the Afghanistan people in one of the worst cowardly acts I can remember.



Plagues

A punishing drought in the U.S. West is drying up waterways, sparking wildfires, and leaving farmers scrambling for water. Next up: a plague of voracious grasshoppers. Federal agriculture officials are launching what could become their largest grasshopper-killing campaign since the 1980s amid an outbreak of the drought-loving insects that cattle ranchers fear will strip bare public and private rangelands.

In central Montana’s Phillips County, more than 50 miles (80 kilometers) from the nearest town, Frank Wiederrick said large numbers of grasshoppers started showing up on prairie surrounding his ranch in recent days.

Already they’re beginning to denude trees around his house. “They’re everywhere,” Wiederrick said.



Volcanoes
Cots, tents, and respirator masks poured into the eastern Caribbean island of St. Vincent as officials expected to start distributing them on Saturday, a day after a powerful explosion at La Soufriere volcano uprooted the lives of thousands of people who evacuated their homes under government orders.

Nations ranging from Antigua to Guyana offered help by either shipping emergency supplies to their neighbour or agreeing to temporarily open their borders to the roughly 16,000 evacuees fleeing ash-covered communities with as many personal belongings as they could stuff into suitcases and backpacks.



USGS

The world is shaking! A magnitude 7.2 - 12 km NE of Saint-Louis du Sud, Haiti is the 7th major quake to rock the planet in the last 24 hours

Two massive quakes have rocked the South Sandwich Islands, just seconds apart, off the east coast of Argentina yesterday. According to the USGS, a mag 8.1, the second biggest quake of the year followed a mag 7.5 quake just a few seconds earlier, 3 major quakes, mag 6 or higher hit the area earlier. The area continues to be rocked by aftershocks. Earlier today a powerful mag 6.9 struck Alaska

Today's major quake, (mag 6 or higher,) brings the August total to 9 and the year total to 99.

Extreme Weather

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.


Hurricanes and cyclones

Category 5 Monster! Cyclone Yasa has intensified to a top-of-the-scale Category Five storm, with devastating gusts of up to 280 kilometres per hour (174 miles per hour) and is on track to hit Fiji late Thursday: Around two-thirds of the island nation's population of 900,000 are in its path.

17 Dec 2020

Fijians living in the path of an approaching super cyclone were told to hunker down at home or flee to emergency shelters immediately on Wednesday, as authorities warned the storm has the potential to uproot buildings and cause mass destruction.

The Fiji Meteorological Service said Cyclone Yasa had intensified to a top-of-the-scale Category Five storm, with devastating gusts of up to 280 kilometers per hour (174 miles per hour). It was on track to hit Fiji late Thursday and the National Disaster Management Office said around two-thirds of the island nation's population of 900,000 are in its path. 



Spaceweather

Solar Cycle 25 is at its fledgling stage and is predicted to be very quiet, (a grand solar minimum). NASA has predicted Solar Cycle 25 will be the quietest solar cycle since the years 1650, to 17oo which is called the Maunder Minimum and is also known as "the mini ice age.". Many experts are also predicting Solar Cycle 25, (which will last for roughly eleven years) will bring record cold and other extreme weather to the planet causing an even more difficult period for crops and agriculture.

This month we have witnessed some horrendous weather on the planet with record-breaking floods, heat, droughts, and wildfires, and June 2021 was the warmest June ever recorded.

Climate Change 

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.


Disease

Monday, 5 April 2021 It's impossible to know just how many pigs have died from the disease but it is thought to be hundreds of millions: China's second wave of African swine fever has killed almost 10 million pigs in the first 3 months of 2021

It's impossible to know just how many pigs have died from the disease but it is thought to be hundreds of millions.

According to a report by ABC, the second wave of African swine fever (ASF) is estimated to have killed almost 10 million pigs in China since the start of the year, detailing the country's plans to rebuild its national herd. New variants of the pig-killing disease African swine fever have emerged in Asia. Hundreds of millions of pigs were killed by the disease in the last couple of years, in China, Asia and Europe reducing the world's stock by more than 40%. The first reported outbreak of the disease was in August 2018 and within a year it had spread to multiple countries.

Animal Die-Offs

Thursday, 15 July 2021 Unliveable! “Described by local environmentalists as the biggest ecological tragedy recorded on the coast of Baja California Sur.” Thousands of tonnes of dead sardines, as well as other fish and marine life, washed up on the northern Pacific coast over the weekend (Video)

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.


Environment

In an incredible disregard for life, the US Navy has used a 40,000lb explosive to test a warship in 'Full Ship Shock Trial.'

The United States Navy has been carrying out 'Full Ship Shock Trials' off the country's east coast. The 40,000lb (18,143kg) explosion was detonated as part of a test to assess the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford's ability to withstand battle conditions. The US Geological Survey registered the explosion as a 3.9 magnitude earthquake. Following the trials, the warship will return to a dry dock to undergo modernisation, maintenance and repairs.



Wildfires

“We used to say ‘unprecedented and historic.’ We’re past that now.” Sugar fire becomes California’s first ‘megafire’ of the year as the Dixie fire triples in size; California experienced a record wildfire season in 2020 but 2021 is already outpacing it

As the Dixie fire in Butte County balloons in size, the Sugar fire burning in Plumas National Forest north of Sacramento has become the first 100,000-acre fire in California this year. The lightning-sparked Sugar fire ignited July 2 and quickly swelled in size as crews battled extreme temperatures and strong gusts of wind.

In the days that followed, spot fires and flareups made it difficult for firefighters to gain a footing on the blaze, officials said. At one point, it grew with such velocity that its massive cloud of smoke, ash, and heat generated its own lightning.


Religion

Wednesday, 18 August 2021 I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire, and billows of smoke. As the "mighty" coalition flee Afghanistan will Israel be next bringing with it the terrifying Bible Prophecy of Ezekiel, Chapter 38

I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke.

As Joe Biden's America, Boris Johnson's UK, and the rest of the most "powerful coalition," the "greatest military might" the world has ever seen, flee the Afghanistan people after being defeated by a band of Jihadi militants. Many are wondering if Bible prophecy is at work here.

This month, the coalition, led by America, fled Afghanistan in the dark of the night handing the country back into the arms of the Taliban. leaving millions of people, especially women and kids in the desperate hands of the Taliban. The void left by the Americans will surely be filled by the Russians and Chinese once again. The latest, shameful act will damage America's already badly dented world image who's ideas of themselves is widely apart from what the rest of the world thinks of them.

Dear Gary and Readers of The Big Wobble,

As you have come to know, I often think outside of the proverbial box! In this day and age, when I often see health issues I wonder, ‘is this connected to Electrosmog or going to be in some way, and can shielding or grounding help with these health issues?’ So, in the next couple of articles, I hope to touch on an idea that may help with the Jab for COVID which has been designed to cause control and destruction problems with those who have made a poor choice and were poked. I would like to state that I am no expert, I am just an Alaskan Bush Rat (a term used in Alaska for those living remote) who spends mass hours reading “BOOKS.”

Years ago I was given a book titled, “Earthing, The most important health discovery ever!” Because I had lived in constant pain for years, due to a car that struck me while working on the road as a land surveyor, I was always looking for relief. As one not interested in anything but natural alternatives, this really spiked my interest.

A letter from Holland: Unusual skies this week in the Amsterdam region as the world enters lockdown: Libertine, tolerant and free Amsterdam is at this moment just like the rest of the world, empty as the Covid-19 threat takes hold
This time of the year where I live, just north of Amsterdam on the Dutch West Coast we are usually inundated with tourists from all over Europe but not this year. Libertine, tolerant and free Amsterdam is at this moment just like the rest of the world, empty. The cannabis selling coffee shops, sex shops and bars have all been closed down due to the coronavirus, these places are only used by tourists anyway.

As I walk my dog every day I come across only occasional other dog walkers or runners who are only too ready to distance themselves from me, eying me with caution. Empty busses pass me by as do the occasional automobile, however, Holland wouldn't be Holland without bicycles and scooters and, this is the mode of transport at the moment, especially for the kids.

A Big Wobble Report: In what is considered the worlds most pristine areas the Antarctic is characteristically seismically stable but more than 30,000 quakes have been registered in the Bransfield Strait since August along with other climate catastrophes and disasters


Credit Wikipedia

Unusual seismic activity in the Antarctic Peninsula Bransfield Strait Seismicity Report in November 2020 reported by the University of Chile causes concern among experts after more than 30,000 have been registered in the Bransfield Strait since August 2020. 
The Antarctic is characteristically seismically stable, until recently.

Other problems are beginning to occur in what is considered the worlds most pristine areas.

Also in November, a giant iceberg the size of the U.S. state of Delaware was reported to be floating toward the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, raising fears it could indirectly endanger young wildlife. The British Antarctic Survey is concerned the iceberg may run aground near the island, preventing land-based marine predators from reaching food supplies and returning to their offspring. Last week that scenario happened when a large piece of the iceberg broke off when the giant iceberg ran aground.

The giant iceberg, named A68, has been floating north since it broke off from the Larsen C ice shelf in July 2017, the Antarctic Survey said. South Georgia, located in the southern Atlantic Ocean, is a British overseas territory. Full Story

In 2018, the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) reported that kilometres beneath the ice of Antarctica, a radioactive heat source is slowly melting it from underneath. Researchers flew planes over the ice using radar to "see" three kilometres beneath the ice, where the hot material seems to be slowly melting the ice. The researchers believe the heat source is radioactive rocks and hot water from inside Earth's crust. Full Story 

Again in 2018, An iceberg about five times the size of Manhattan broke off the Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica, an ominous sign of the continued retreat of this fast-flowing mass of ice. It was reported to be the 6th largest-ever iceberg to break off the Antarctic. Full Story

Penguins demise

The number of chinstrap penguins in some colonies in Western Antarctica has fallen by as much as 77% since they were last surveyed in the 1970s, say scientists studying the impact of climate change on the remote region. The chinstrap penguin, named after the narrow black band under its head, inhabits the islands and shores of the Southern Pacific and Antarctic Oceans and feeds on krill.


“The declines that we’ve seen are definitely dramatic,” said Steve Forrest, a conservation biologist who joined a team of scientists from the two U.S. universities of Stony Brook and Northeastern on an Antarctic expedition that has just ended. “Something is happening to the fundamental building blocks of the food chain here. We’ve got less food abundance that’s driving these populations down lower and lower over time and the question is, is that going to continue?” Full Story

Controversially, in 2016 proof of the left’s agenda on Global warming as media giants the BBC, (known for having a thinly veiled a left-wing agenda) claimed: “massive Ice loss spreading up Antarctic glaciers!” When actually three weeks earlier, NASA reported the Antarctic has been gaining 112 to 82 billion tons of ice a year since 1992? They, the BBC, claimed, the scale and pace of change now taking place in West Antarctica are captured in a new, long-term satellite record. Scientists have combined nearly a quarter of a century of observations to show how the region's great glaciers are losing height by up to 7 meters per year, more on this later.

Their unlikely story came just three weeks after NASA claimed the Antarctic ice sheet showed a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice a year from 1992 to 2001, slowing to 82 billion tons of ice per year between 2003 and 2008. The new NASA study claimed that an increase in Antarctic snow accumulation that began 10,000 years ago is currently adding enough ice to the continent to outweigh the increased losses from its thinning glaciers. The research challenges the conclusions of other studies, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) 2013 report, which says that Antarctica is overall losing land ice. According to the new analysis of satellite data, the Antarctic ice sheet showed a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice a year from 1992 to 2001. That net gain slowed to 82 billion tons of ice per year between 2003 and 2008. That is 112 to 82 billion tons a year GAIN NOT LOSS. Full story here

Earlier this year, Antarctic continent posted a record temperature reading of 18.3°C 
bringing fresh fears of accelerating damage to the planet’s ice sheets and sea-level rise have been fuelled by confirmation from the UN’s weather agency that the Antarctic likely saw a new temperature record of more than 18°C. Speaking to journalists in Geneva, spokesperson Clare Nullis from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), said that the record reading taken in the north of the continent would be considered unusual, even during the current warmer summer months.

The Argentine research base, which is called Esperanza, is on the northern tip of the Antarctic peninsula; it set a new record temperature yesterday: 18.3°C, which is not a figure you would normally associate with Antarctica even in the summertime. This beat the former record of 17.5°C, which was set back in 2015.” Experts at WMO will now verify whether the temperature extreme is a new record for the Antarctic continent, which is defined as the main continental landmass. It should not be confused with the Antarctic region, which is everywhere south of 60 degrees latitude, and where a record temperature of 19.8C was recorded on Signy Island in January 1982. Full Story

Scientists stumped! Unprecedented Arctic warmth in 2016 triggers massive decline in sea ice while Antarctic is gaining billions of tons of ice per year!

Click on image to enlarge

If I was to claim on a random day in the Northern Hemisphere in the middle of December, Colorado Springs, more than 2,500 miles further south was more than 50 Deg F (10.3 Deg C) colder than parts of the Arctic Circle you would probably claim I was making it up, well as the chart above shows, I am not!

Parts of the Arctic Circle have often been much warmer than countries much further south in 2016, today is just another example. In November The Washington Post reported, ‘The North Pole is an insane 36 degrees warmer than normal as winter descends.’ Just last week The Big Wobble posted, ‘This morning at 9.am UST, Bismarck North Dakota USA recorded a temperature of minus 32.5C, minus 26.5F, which is 25F colder the North Pole which recorded its temperature at minus 17.3C, minus 1F.’

So it should not come as a surprise at NOAA’s latest report: Unprecedented Arctic warmth in 2016 triggers massive decline in sea ice, snow.

Warmer temperatures also bring record-breaking delay to fall sea-ice freeze.

Here are the main points of the report.

“Rarely have we seen the Arctic show a clearer, stronger or more pronounced signal of persistent warming and its cascading effects on the environment than this year,” said Jeremy Mathis, director of NOAA’s Arctic Research Program. “While the science is becoming clearer, we need to improve and extend sustained observations of the Arctic that can inform sound decisions on environmental health and food security as well as emerging opportunities for commerce.”
Major findings in this year’s report include:

Warmer air temperature: Average annual air temperature over land areas was the highest in the observational record, representing a 6.3 degree Fahrenheit (3.5 degree Celsius) increase since 1900. Arctic temperatures continue to increase at double the rate of the global temperature increase.

Record low snow cover: Spring snow cover set a record low in the North American Arctic, where the May snow cover extent fell below 1.5 million square miles (4 million square kilometers) for the first time since satellite observations began in 1967.

Smaller Greenland ice sheet: The Greenland ice sheet continued to lose mass in 2016, as it has since 2002 when satellite-based measurement began. The start of melting on the Greenland ice sheet was the second earliest in the 37-year record of observations, close to the record set in 2012.

Record low sea ice: The Arctic sea ice minimum extent from mid-October 2016 to late November 2016 was the lowest since the satellite record began in 1979 and 28 percent less than the average for 1981-2010 in October. Arctic ice is thinning, with multi-year ice now comprising 22 percent of the ice cover as compared to 78 percent for the more fragile first-year ice. By comparison, multi-year ice made up 45 percent of ice cover in 1985.

Above-average Arctic Ocean temperature: Sea surface temperature in August 2016 was 9 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius) above the average for 1982-2010 in the Barents and Chukchi seas and off the east and west coasts of Greenland.

Arctic Ocean productivity: Springtime melting and retreating sea ice allowed for more sunlight to reach the upper layers of the ocean, stimulating widespread blooms of algae and other tiny marine plants which form the base of the marine food chain, another sign of the rapid changes occurring in a warming Arctic.

This year’s report also includes scientific essays on carbon dioxide in the Arctic Ocean, on land and in the atmosphere, and changes among small mammals.

Ocean acidification: More than other oceanic areas, the Arctic Ocean is more vulnerable to ocean acidification, a process driven by the ocean’s uptake of increased human-caused carbon dioxide emissions. Ocean acidification is expected to intensify in the Arctic, adding new stress to marine fisheries, particularly those that need calcium carbonate to build shells. This change affects Arctic communities that depend on fish for food security, livelihoods and culture.

Carbon cycle changing: Overall, the warming tundra is now releasing more carbon into the atmosphere than it is taking up. Twice as much organic carbon is locked in the northern permafrost as is currently in the Earth’s atmosphere. If the permafrost melts and releases that carbon, it could have profound effects on weather and climate in the Arctic and the rest of the Earth.


Small mammals: Recent shifts in the population of small mammals, such as shrews, may be the signs of broader consequences of environmental change full report here

All the above research is actually opposite to what is happening to the Antarctic which is gaining billions of tons of ice per year!
NASA claim the Antarctic ice sheet showed a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice a year from 1992 to 2001, slowing to 82 billion tons of ice per year between 2003 and 2008.

A new NASA study says that an increase in Antarctic snow accumulation that began 10,000 years ago is currently adding enough ice to the continent to outweigh the increased losses from its thinning glaciers. The research challenges the conclusions of other studies, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) 2013 report, which says that Antarctica is overall losing land ice. According to the new analysis of satellite data, the Antarctic ice sheet showed a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice a year from 1992 to 2001. That net gain slowed to 82 billion tons of ice per year between 2003 and 2008. That is 112 to 82 billion tons a year GAIN NOT LOSS.

Scott and Shackleton logbooks prove Antarctic sea ice is not shrinking 100 years after expeditions

The Telegraph reported this week that Antarctic sea ice has barely changed from where it was 100 years ago, scientists have discovered, after poring over the logbooks of great polar explorers such as Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton. Experts were concerned that ice at the South Pole had declined significantly since the 1950s, which they feared was driven by man-made climate change. But new analysis suggests that conditions are now virtually identical to when the Terra Nova and Endurance sailed to the continent in the early 1900s, indicating that declines are part of a natural cycle and not the result of global warming. It also explains why sea ice levels in the South Pole have begun to rise again in recent years, a trend which has left climate scientists scratching their heads.

BBC claim massive ice loss spreading up Antarctic glaciers! Just 3 weeks after NASA claim the Antarctic has been gaining 112 to 82 billion tons of ice a year since 1992.

Proof of the left’s agenda on Global warming as left-wing media giants the BBC claim “massive Ice loss spreading up Antarctic glaciers!” When actually a three week old NASA report claims the Antarctic has been gaining 112 to 82 billion tons of ice a year since 1992.

Extraordinary statistics our global warming experts are not telling us!

Global warming champion Al Gore

2016 is to be the warmest year on record as was 2015 before it, leaving the global warmist’s fraternity with a smug, told you so look on their faces. However 2015 was the beginning of one of the strongest El-Niño on record and 2016 was the back end of the super strong event which accounted for 16 months in a row of record warmth for the globe, the longest such streak in 137 years. September this year saw that run stop and October was also cooler meaning our planet is cooling and the powerful El-Niño has gone. Global warming is primarily a problem of too much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere according to scientists, which acts as a blanket, trapping heat and warming the planet. As we burn fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas for energy or cut down and burn forests to create pastures and plantations, carbon accumulates and overloads our atmosphere, let’s just stop there and look at some remarkable statistics.

Stunning new data indicates El Nino drove record highs in global temperatures suggesting rise may not be down to man-made emissions.

The Daily Mail reported this week; Global average temperatures over land have plummeted by more than 1C since the middle of this year – their biggest and steepest fall on record. The news comes amid mounting evidence that the recent run of world record high temperatures is about to end. The fall, revealed by NASA satellite measurements of the lower atmosphere, has been caused by the end of El Nino – the warming of surface waters in a vast area of the Pacific west of Central America.

NASA claim the Antarctic ice sheet showed a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice a year from 1992 to 2001, slowing to 82 billion tons of ice per year between 2003 and 2008.

A new NASA study says that an increase in Antarctic snow accumulation that began 10,000 years ago is currently adding enough ice to the continent to outweigh the increased losses from its thinning glaciers.
