PAST FORWARD
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Yesterday, as we threw out the prisoners out of our ship, we could not hear a sound. But their terrified faces are like screaming cries that still echo in my head. As a Vega of this ship, my power held no value to prevent this brutality - all in the name of keeping the majority alive. What an irony it is that the more we try to save humanity from going extinct, it feels like we are losing humanity even more.

Slip Sliding, Sloshing, Flooding, Burning, Collapsing, & Blowing Away
Florida & California, having once been Meccas for vacationers, retirees, & long-term residents, have become hellish environments. Florida is a cesspool of various algal growths & trash-covered beaches caused by human pollution, along with the unstoppable increasing collapse into sinkholes of its honeycombed porous foundation.

Elevator Dreams
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. The idea frightened generations and was the number one visceral reason everything else was going to have to be as safe as humanly possible before I would even consider following my hearts' call out here. No way I was going to risk that agony unless the odds were very, very low that anything else would go wrong.

eBikes are the Rage
With the introduction of a new program that will compensate people for switching to electric bikes, France hopes to have a significant impact on the transportation industry. If participants in the "E-Bike Revolution" initiative decide to upgrade their current bicycle to an electric one, they will receive 4,000 euros. The objective is to reduce pollution and persuade individuals to switch from gas-guzzling automobiles to more ecologically friendly modes of transportation. If this effort is effective, it might represent a significant step toward weaning the nation off of conventional modes of transportation.

Physics of Faith
I hope that this information will be enlightening. Not just in what you learn regarding the facts that seem to point to the existence of a master intelligence, but also enlightening in another way, the way that we are being manipulated. By whom, I'm really not sure, spiritual warfare can be very covert and devious, but manipulated, nonetheless. Am I a conspiracy theorist? Not unless a conspiracy exists.

Tonga before the blast
Smoke fills the air. Not the smoke of a volcanic eruption but the cookfires of hundreds of family huts. It was 1986, and I visited Tonga on an Earthwatch expedition. Our task was to map the growing fields identifying the types of vegetation–taro, plantains, papaya, and coconut made up some of the target crops. Our direct observation used ground-truth satellite imagery. Once identified on our maps, we transferred the information to the satellite photographs of the island. This, in turn, allowed researchers to extrapolate the key colors to other islands in the South Pacific.
