Microscopic creatures first changed Earth’s ocean chemistry more than 2.7 billion years ago by producing oxygen.  Then those creatures led the  Oxygen Revolution, or Great Oxidation which marked the biologically induced appearance of dioxygen (O2) in Earth’s atmosphereResearch by a University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD) graduate student Mojtaba Fakhraee and Associate Professor Sergei Katsev has pushed a major milestone in the evolution of the Earth’s environment back by about 250 million years. Cyanobacteria: Responsible for the buildup of oxygen in the earth’s atmosphere.

Fluorides, the atomic bomb, and fake news

Written by Jon Rappoport

Faced with toxic fluorides destroying food crops, animal and human life, and with law suits piling up, atomic scientists decided they could distract the nation by promoting fluorides as a beneficial tooth treatment.

Occasionally, I reprint this article. I wrote it some years ago, during research on toxic chemicals pervading the landscape. I used to send the piece to mainstream reporters, but I eventually gave that up as a bad bet.

They’re dedicated to fake news…and now they’re losing control over public consciousness. Losing badly. Independent media are in the ascendance, and rightly so.

Bombshell Study: Flu Vaccines May Actually Spread the Flu

Written by Mike Adams

 

A bombshell new scientific study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) finds that people who receive flu shots emit 630{154653b9ea5f83bbbf00f55de12e21cba2da5b4b158a426ee0e27ae0c1b44117} more flu virus particles into the air,compared to non-vaccinated individuals.

In effect, this finding documents evidence that flu vaccines spread the flu, and that so-called “herd immunity” is a medical hoax because “the herd” is actually transformed into carriers and spreaders of influenza.

Climate: Heating up or cooling down?

Written by Anthony Bright-Paul

Everything is either heating up or cooling down. This is just simple observation.  It is a law. Anybody can verify this for themselves quite easily by watching a bonfire. Heat is generated by combustion inter alia, and what is hot rises up and cools down.

If any climate scientist says otherwise you know he is a fraud. You know very well also that if he says heat is trapped he is not only a fraud but is after government funding.

Great Barrier Reef Scientist Snubs Uni Gagging Order

Written by Dr Benny Peiser

We will enter a new dark age of unreason if universities are afraid of debate. – John Roskam, Institute of Public Affairs, 1 February 2018

Most disappointing of all is the way that science – especially the leaders of the world’s science academies – have joined the climate campaign, not just demonizing those who say they are not convinced we face catastrophe, but turning a blind eye to the distortion and corruption of the scientific process itself. –Matt Ridley, Global Warming Policy Foundation, November 2015

Latest Data Show NO SEA LEVEL RISE ACCELERATION Since 1993

Written by Pierre R Gosselin

Dr. Sebastian Lüning and Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt today here are asking how sea level rise is doing because as have not heard much about it lately. A good place to start is at Climate4You.

Strangely the data go only until December 2016. And if you look at the data from the source form the University of Colorado, we find the same. So what’s with 2017?

The ‘adjustment’ methods used to show ‘global warming’

Written by Ron Clutz

Science Matters features a monthly update on ocean SST averages from HadSST3 (latest is Oceans Cool Off Previous Three Years). Graeme added this comment:
I came across this today (link here). Can you comment on why your studies seem to show the reverse! Regards, Graeme Weber

While thinking about a concise, yet complete response, I put together this post. This is how I see it, to the best of my knowledge (emphasis added):

A Mid-Winter Special — Groundhog Musings

Written by Dr Klaus L E Kaiser

Dear Cousin Punxsutawney Phil,

Cordial thanks for your response to my letter of last year to our Aunt Climate. I think you were right on target and our great aunt has listened to our gripes. Of course, she’s not alone; as you know the U.S. President, in his speech on the State of the Union, a couple of nights ago, did not even mention “climate change” once. Presumably, he had read the letter too and him and aunty agreed to finally boost the production of that formerly claimed “evil-extraordinaire,” the trace gas carbon dioxide, also known as CO2 in the atmosphere.

Alleged Extended Lifetimes of Atmospheric Muons: Does This Really Confirm Relativity?

Written by Raymond HV Gallucci, PhD, PE

Among the long-standing ‘proofs’ of Einstein’s relativity is the alleged time dilation effect that muons created during cosmic ray collisions with particles in our upper atmosphere experience as they plummet downward at nearly the speed of light.

That is, an unexpectedly large number reach sea level despite the very short half-time for decay, as allegedly ‘proven’ by Frisch and Smith in 1963.  Alternate, non-relativistic explanations have been offered, including the one I examine here – the possibility that the muons are created by cosmic ray collisions with particles throughout our atmosphere, not just at a single altitude.

Injecting minute amounts of two immune-stimulating agents directly into solid tumors in mice can eliminate all traces of cancer in the animals, including distant, untreated metastases, according to a study by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine.

 The approach works for many different types of cancers, including those that arise spontaneously, the study found.

The researchers believe the local application of very small amounts of the agents could serve as a rapid and relatively inexpensive cancer therapy that is unlikely to cause the adverse side effects often seen with bodywide immune stimulation.

The History of the Population Control Movement 1798 to 1998

Written by William Walter Kay

The population control movement (or better put: the contraception-abortion-sterilization medical-industrial complex), while little understood and seldom discussed, is one of the most culturally and politically influential movements of the modern world.

The population control movement and the environmental movement are so pervasively collaboratively and ideologically conjoined as to be conceptually inseverable. The following articles hopefully may serve as stepping stones across the 200-year wide river of darkness separating the general public from any practical awareness of this deliberate historic endeavour profoundly affecting each and every one of our lives.

Amateur Astronomer Receives Signals from ‘lost’ NASA satellite

Written by Richard Chirgwin

An amateur astronomer hunting the Zuma satellite that SpaceX may or may not have lost has instead turned up signals from a NASA bird thought dead since 2005.

Zuma went missing after separation from its SpaceX Falcon 9 launcher earlier this month. Like many other amateur sky-watchers, Scott Tilley has since tried to locate the super-secret satellite.

During that search he instead received signals from NASA’s IMAGE (Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration) satellite, which was pronounced dead in 2005. Tilley’s discovery has been confirmed by the Goddard Space Flight Center.

The arctic air that has frozen the northeastern U.S. over the first weeks of 2018 has prompted New Englanders to crank up the heat and New England’s utility companies to scramble for fuel.

This season’s above-average heating and electricity demand has tested grid reliability at a time when the topic has had particular political salienceMost reporting on the matter has lauded the resilience the grid has shown, but a fuel-security analysis performed by the group that oversees New England’s power system delivers a pessimistic chill. ISO New England’s analysis reveals that in winters to come fuel insecurity will plague the region.

The Speed of Light: Constant and Non-Constant

Written by Raymond HV Gallucci, PhD, PE

This paper further explores the possibility of non-constant light speed, looking at two explanations offered by other dissident physicists.  First an example of tennis balls acquiring velocity of motion is extended to light.

Next is an examination of Curt Renshaw’s unique theory of light as traveling over an entire spectrum of speeds, like an expanding elastic psring,  with humans only able to observe that part of the spectrum (spring) traveling at exactly c.

Climate Science Judged by Scientists with Naked Conflict-of-Interest

Written by Donna Laframboise

SPOTLIGHT: History’s most momentous climate decision was made by people with substantial conflicts-of-interest.

BIG PICTURE: In November 1995, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) declared for the first time that humans were changing the climate. Its verdict turned on a single piece of then-unpublished research. Four months after the fact, the research was submitted to a prominent journal. Three months later it was published.

Vaccine industry in PANIC as America’s vaccinated children keep dying

Written by Mike Adams

Children are dying from the flu all across America, according to media reports. What the media isn’t reporting, however, is how many of the children who died were also vaccine recipients.

Make no mistake: If only unvaccinated children were dying from the flu, that would be the headline everywhere: “Unvaccinated Children Dying Across America” or even “Flu Shot Saves Children from Deadly Influenza.”

But of course you’re not seeing those headlines for the simple reason that vaccinated children are among those who are being killed by this year’s flu.
