I'm not an alarmest but I do like to know what's going on around me. I also like to post things about health / environment that I feel are important to us all.
I've been holding back here lately, only because there is so much to post about, I can't keep up. The best I can tell there are at least 10 "plagues" that are effecting planet earth simultaneously. I say "plagues" in quotes because, being a God fearing man I don't know what other term to use that fits the bill.
#1 Cancer - raise your hand if someone you know has not died from cancer. What no one raised their hands?
#2 Armies Of Locusts - developed in Africa ravaged millions of acres of crops across Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia, crossed the Sea and is eating away at China now. So massive is the army that they devour entire fields of crops in as little as 30 seconds.
#3 Extremely Bizarre Weather Patterns - I like to joke around about Al Gore and his global warming. But I don't think I need to say anything further about the weather patterns, we all are experiencing "something" unusually different than what we remember as youths.
#4 Unprecedented Flooding - We are seeing unusual flooding all over the world, and as of late the southern US has been impacted also.
#5 Major Earthquakes - Really big earthquakes are happening with such frequency now that it is very difficult for me to keep track of them all.
#6 Unusual Volcanic Eruptions - Seismic activity has been rising all over the globe, and over the past couple of months we have seen volcanoes all over the world pop off as common as dynomite in a rock quary.
#7 Coronavirus - The numbers continue to rise, and many are speculating that this could potentially become the worst global pandemic since the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918. I hope they are wrong though.
#8 African Swine Fever - “Pig Ebola” has already wiped out millions upon millions of pigs in China, and it has now spread to more than 40 other countries.
#9 The H1N1 Swine Flu – Unlike the African Swine Fever, the H1N1 Swine Flu can actually harm humans. I've read it's already caused more human mortalities outside of China than the coronavirus has. I also hope this is wrong, it's so hard to trust what you read on the internet.
#10 H5N1 Bird Flu – This strain of the bird flu caused a massive global scare a number of years ago, and they are now predicting a resurgence. China has had to kill thousands of chickens so far, and experts are warning that this outbreak could be just getting started. Again I hope the experts are wrong.
