Feeding Consumerism
The plundering of Gaia’s resources to support consumerism continues.
I try always to remain objective about world events, but I am human just as you are, and I was saddened today to hear that Japanese scientists have discovered substantial “rare earth” deposits in deep water under the sea bed of the Pacific. The area is in international waters and so acrimonious arguments over ownership and drilling rights are inevitable, as is the potential damage to an area of great environmental significance.The prize is a supply of scarce minerals which are needed to make the must-have sophisticated technological gadgets like i-phones, i-pads and plasma TVs. What can I say? Except, remember Atlantis.

... In remembering Atlantis, i often wonder if it will happen again. There are so many potential (and recognised) natural disasters waiting to wipe out different parts of the sophisticated world, so it could happen at any moment. Apart from spreading the word of the dangers of consumerism, what else can we do? Have the Masters indicated the likelihood of another Atlantis, or do They still hope we can pull this earth back to become the sacred planet without first annihilating it? |
