Climate. Now who would have thought? The very mega-corporations and mega-billionaires behind the globalisation of the world economy over recent decades, whose pursuit of shareholder value and cost reduction has wreaked so much damage to our environment both in the industrial world and in the underdeveloped economies of Africa, Asia, Latin America, are the leading backers of the "grassroots" decarbonisation movement from Sweden to Germany to the USA and beyond.
Is it pangs of guilty conscience, or could it be a deeper agenda of the financialisation of the very air we breathe and more?
Whatever one may believe about the dangers of CO 2 and risks of global warming creating a global catastrophe of 1.5 to 2 degree Celsius average temperature rise in the next roughly 12 years, it is worth noting who is promoting the current flood of propaganda and climate activism.
Green Finance
Several years before Al Gore and others decided to use a young Swedish school girl to be the poster child for climate action urgency, or in the USA the call of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for a complete reorganisation of the economy around a Green New Deal, the giants of finance began devising schemes for steering hundreds of billions of future funds to investments in often worthless "climate" companies.
In 2013 after years of careful preparation, a Swedish real estate company, Vasakronan, issued the first corporate "green bond." They were followed by others including Apple, SNCF and the major French bank Credit Agricole.
In November 2013 Elon Musk's problem-riddled Tesla Energy issued the first solar asset-backed security. Today according to something called the Climate Bonds Initiative, more than $500 billion in such green bonds are outstanding.

Your body is crying out for...dirt
The idea of eating dirt isn't new. It's been around a long time, dating back more than 2,500 years. Hunters and gatherers couldn't avoid it, and regardless of culture, there's evidence people have included traces of dirt in their diets throughout the ages.

Biological Transmutations
Over the past two centuries a large number of experiments with animals, seeds and bacteria have demonstrated that biology is not only a chemical process, but also a nuclear one. It has been demonstrated that some minerals transmute into other minerals. With the development of lowenergy nuclear reactions (cold fusion), this topic is back in the scientific agenda. Very few scientists work in this field, but its importance is such that its further development is crucial.
