CHARLIE HEBDO.




One more time I must stress here the fact that Humankind's greatest enemy is identification with thoughts. Indeed, this identification keeps us disconnected from Reality since in Reality we are not our thoughts but BEING in us.

The atrocious and barbaric terrorist action perpetrated in the name of Islam by Said and Cherif Kouachi against Charlie Hebdo's office, like the one perpetrated in the name of Islamophoby by Anders Behring Brejvik in Oslo (2011), are possible only because people are identified with their thoughts and as a consequence disconnected from Reality. Engulfed into the blind and crazy horizon of an ideology weaved by thought-identification, people commit evil while not even knowing it.

Yet, a human BEING can be called civilized only when s(he) retrieves BEING within and NO ideology can dissipate the madness identification with thoughts represents. I know you will not like what I will say here but my job is not to please thought-identity.

Little is the number of people who do evil on purpose, usually we find good reasons to justify our wrong doings. Westernized people attached to their so-called "democratic ideology, are also identified with their thoughts and also commit atrocities.

The UK human-rights group gave The Guardian the latest statistics (November 24, 2014) compiled by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, on collateral damage from American drone strikes in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen.

Eliminating a specific terrorist is a ‘surgical killing’ according to the US but it is a big lie. Britain’s Reprieve human-rights group calculated that it takes about 28 innocent lives to take out a single terrorist, often with multiple drone strikes. This means that during the last decade thousands and thousands of innocent people, often children, were killed on a daily basis for no reason by the US drones in the name of our civilized world.

These innocent people US drones kill in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen and elsewhere are as much humans as these poor journalists killed at Charlie Hebdo's office by the two criminal madmen. And, if they remain totally unknown to us they were very important to their mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, etc. ... but honestly, do we truly care for them like we care for our journalists ?

The problem is, when you are identified with your thoughts you do not see you're disconnected from Reality. Clinging to your thought-system, no matter what it is, Democracy, Islam, whatever, you absolutely want to believe you're right even when you act criminally. Only the return to BEING, and therefore to Reality's ISness in us, can end this shared madness where humans kill humans in the name of their ideologies.

"You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye". (Luke: 6:42)

A MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD

The IPCC warned us in its latest report, that we should bring back our CO2 emissions to 50% of what they were in the year 1990 and this before 2020, if we want to keep our planet within the 2° degrees. And the IPCC bases this prevision on the most optimistic scenario. Indeed, during the last decades, the scientists forcasts about Global Warming have been constantly revised upwards. The cascading effet is pretty uncertain and, for instance, we don't know the exact impact of CH4 emissions through the warming of the oceans and the melting of the permafrost. Lima Conference on Climate ends with ridiculous and criminal decisions about CO2 reduction: Reducing CO2 emissions from 40% by 2050 is just nonsense. You can no more haggle over with Global Warming that, for instance, you can haggle over with a fire that transforms your house in a furnace. You cannot say to the blaze: "stop, wait 20 minutes until the firemen arrive". The United States found $ 3000 billion just for I

What can you do to save the planet Earth?

What can you do to save the planet Earth? You might have had this question popping up in your mind – “What can I do alone to save the environment?” Actually, there are thousands of people like you who have the similar thought in mind, amidst that dilemma and hesitation, no one’s taking a step. But you, alone, have the power to initiate, and those thousands will eventually follow you. No step is a small step, and every contribution matters in its own way. While caring for the planet isn’t a matter to be saved for June 5, however, it’s a good time to start today and take the pledge to do whatever you can, in order to achieve a sustainable environmental development. Organize a cleaning drive: That’s something you can easily do! You have organized parties before, this time, organize a cleaning drive. Call your friends, friends of friends, office colleagues, acquaintances and family members to be a part of this act. Gather in your neighbourhood or a popular market area and clea

DIRECTLY CAPTURING CO2 FROM THE ATMOSPHERE

Image
Direct air capture is the process of chemically scrubbing carbon dioxide directly from the ambient air, and then storing it either underground or in long-lived products. This new technology is similar to the carbon capture and storage technology used to capture emissions from sources like power plants and industrial facilities. The difference is that direct air capture removes excess carbon directly from the atmosphere, instead of capturing it at the source.  It is relatively straightforward to measure and account for the climate benefits of direct air capture, and its potential scale of deployment is enormous. But the technology remains costly and energy-intensive. It is often difficult to pin down costs for new direct air capture technologies, but a 2018 study estimates that it would cost about $94-$232 per metric ton. Earlier estimates were higher.  Direct air capture also requires substantial heat and power inputs: scrubbing 1 gigaton of carbon dioxide from the air could require ne
