As the planet continues to free fall into total meltdown (covered in the article below), mainstream media is following their marching orders of denying or omitting any discussion of climate engineering at all costs. The gravity of what is unfolding around us all cannot be overstated. With each passing day it is becoming more and more difficult for the power structure to hide the magnitude of climate disintegration. As the unravelling becomes ever more clear, the geoengineering issue will soon enough be impossible to hide. Once the population nears critical mass of awareness in regard to the climate engineering issue, the “collective insanity” that currently runs the planet will become even more dangerous. It is impossible to know what cards those in power may play as the walls close in on them. Certainly, they will use their mainstream media empires to hide the lethal climate modification programs from the public till the last possible moment.

Pentagon to Escalate Global Warming Preparations
A recent report said the Defense Department should set benchmarks for adapting to global warming. The agency agreed.
Time to put some milestones on the “Roadmap.”
Whether from rising seas, eroding coasts, thawing permafrost or worsening wildfires, American military installations across the world are in the line of fire from climate change, the Government Accountability Office and the Department of Defense have found.
Following up on a 2012 “Climate Change Adaptation Roadmap” by the Defense Department – which had previously affirmed that military bases faced rising challenges from global warming – the GAO released a report Monday aimed at spurring the Pentagon to action, calling on military leaders to set benchmarks for when and how their bases will protect themselves from the consequences of climate change.
“Without a project plan in place that includes milestones, the department may not be able to effectively implement actions to meet its goal of carrying out vulnerability assessments for all its facilities,” the report stated.
The Pentagon said it concurred with the findings.
“We are committed to maintaining the resilience of our installations in support of our mission, our warfighters and our communities,” John Conger, acting deputy undersecretary of Defense for Installations and Environment, wrote in a letter to the GAO. “We will continue to integrate consideration of climate change and associated impacts across the Defense enterprise.”
GAO representatives visited 15 military installations, and at 12 of them found officials who said they had observed not only rising temperatures, stronger and more frequent storms, and changing precipitation patterns, but had also seen how those changes created “potential impacts of mission vulnerabilities,” the report said.
At a coastal Air Force communications early-warning radar installation in Alaska, for example, rising sea levels, melting sea ice and thawing permafrost had eroded roads, sea walls, infrastructure, runways and 40 feet of shoreline, preventing large airplanes from landing and restricting flights to only small planes and helicopters.
“Daily operations at these types of remote radar installations are at risk due to potential loss of runways, and such installations located close to the coastline could be at risk of radar failure if erosion of the coastline continues,” the report said.
Noting that the early-warning system is designed to operate even with the loss of one or more radar sites, it added, “Air Force headquarters officials noted that if one or more of these sites is not operational, there is a risk that the Defense Department early warning system will operate with diminished functionality.”
Meanwhile, training at an Army installation was put on hold for three weeks in 2003 because thawing permafrost had made the ground there impassible. Further melting since this time now threatens to open holes in a drop zone used for airborne training, and freezing rain – which has more frequently replaced snow as temperatures have warmed – has damaged equipment, delaying certain training for repairs.
In the Pacific at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaii, 43 straight days of rain in 2008 led to mudslides and flooding that damaged housing and other infrastructure on a base.
And even as that installation endured seemingly endless rain, other areas in the Pacific were parched. In a training area associated with Marine Corps Base Hawaii, drought sharply increased the risk of wildfires, forcing officials to reduce live-fire training and limit the types of ammunition used. When wildfires did break out, they forced officials to restrict certain training operations, wholly suspend others, and prevent aircraft from landing due to limited visibility from smoke.
“Units have had to spend extra time and money to travel to other installations to complete their required training,” the report said.
Then there were the storms: Edwards Air Force Base in the California desert suffered a flood that lasted eight months, making one of its emergency runways unusable. Surges from more severe storms along the coast, meanwhile, have put Naval bases at risk, such as at a dry dock where a submarine is being cut in half to be used for training.
“Officials explained that they were concerned about possible storms and associated storm surge, noting that if salt water was allowed to flood the submarine’s systems, it could result in severe damage. Such damage would delay completion of the submarine’s lengthening by three to four months,” the report said.
The Pentagon said it’s prepared to take these challenges head-on.
“Climate change may be one of any number of factors that can affect facilities and impact mission and readiness,” the agency said in a response to the report. “The Department will work to review processes and criteria … to strengthen consideration of climate change adaptation.”

In the weather report video, the weather man cites costs like $300 billion by the end of this century. By the end of this century, estimating dollar costs will be impossible and irrelevant. We can try to imagine the cost, but it will be like the civilian victims of war being able to imagine the coming horrors before they even happen. How do you properly measure the ‘cost’ of global devastation? Using ‘dollars’ is a symptom of the totally blinkered view of this economic paradigm. The cost is not measurable now and will only become more ‘inestimateable’.
Well, I finally connected the dots here. I was looking for information yesterday about this god aweful “smartmeter” they put on our house without my knowledge and I came across this:
The Cooking of Humanity: http://youtu.be/JojdEH0nzos it all fits! 2+2=4. Microwave radiation, aluminum skys, harpp, it all fits. “The Silent War”
We are at war and its not looking good for any of us. Watch this all the way through and watch his reaction at the closing of the interview. This man
knows something.
Hmm, they are getting ready for something! http://www.darkgovernment.com/news/military-surplus-distribution-to-local-pds-highest-ever/
If they(so called elite) can put a man in the white house that wasn’t EVEN born in this country, blow up the WTC’s on 9/11 with explosives, murder 100’s of thousands in Iraq with a war based on lies, poison us with Aspertame(rat poison), put flouride(PHOSPHATE WASTE THAT COMES OUT OF THE SMOKE STACK) in our toothpaste/water then write it on the label of the toothpaste that is, IF YOU SWALLOW TOO MUCH call a poison control center, make MILITARY AMMO OUT OF DEPLETED URANIUM that is radioactive for millions of years, make grade school children PLEDGE ALLIGANCE TO A FLAG and punish any that don’t want to, THEN USE the congress,senate,presidents, military, government agencies, TV, RADIOS, NEWSPAPERS that everything I said above is OK does it surprise anybody reading this that they CAN SPRAY US WITH ALUMINUM, BARIUM and STRONTIUM? WE might as WELL BEND OVER because IT is NOT going to CHANGE! UNLESS we have an ARMED revolution BUT like the other person making a comment that is EXACTLY what they want us to do.
Beginning of movie TAMMY has tons of chemtrails.
Our Need for a Sense of Unity; the clock is ticking very fast:
THINK while it’s still legal! Occupy your mind, the revolution begins within.
What does that short video tell anyone with basic Intelligence?
To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you, all your life from the beginning till we as individuals decide to awaken to Reality.
“The only reason people do not know much is because they do not care to know. They are incurious. Incuriosity is the oddest and most foolish failing there is.”
“Make no mistake about it – enlightenment is a destructive process. It has nothing to do with becoming better or being happier. Enlightenment is the crumbling away of untruth. It’s seeing through the facade of pretense. It’s the complete eradication of everything we imagined to be true. Imagine the current cultural paradigm is the Matrix. Imagine you are Neo on the brink of a paradigm shift, and I am Morpheus. “The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you’re inside, you look around, what do you see? Scientist, Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, and carpenters; the very minds of the people we are trying to save. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent upon the system, they will fight to protect it.”
“Awakening is not a thing. It is not a goal, not a concept. It is not something to be attained. It is a metamorphosis. If the caterpillar thinks about the butterfly it is to become, saying ‘And then I shall have wings and antennae,’ there will never be a butterfly. The caterpillar must accept its own disappearance in its transformation. When the marvelous butterfly takes wing, nothing of the caterpillar remains.”

Methane is an important factor in global climate change, because it so effectively traps heat. As conditions warm, global research has indicated that more methane is released, which then stands to further warm the planet. Scientists call this phenomenon a positive feedback loop.
Methane is one of the strongest of the natural greenhouse gases, about 80 times more potent than CO2, and while it may not get as much attention as its cousin CO2.That’s because methane is a far more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, and there are trillions of tons of it embedded in a kind of ice slurry called methane hydrate or methane clathrate crystals in the Arctic and in the seas around the continental shelves all around the world.
It could produce an extinction of species on a wide scale, an extinction that could even include the human race. If there is a “ticking time bomb” on our planet that could lead to a global warming so rapid and sudden that we would have no way of dealing with it, it’s methane.
Researchers at the University of Alaska Fairbanks International Arctic Research Center have found that Arctic methane is leaking out from the ocean floor nearly twice as fast as was previously thought. The researchers found that the East Siberian Arctic Shelf is releasing at least 17 million tons of methane into the atmosphere each year.
While billions around the globe still occupy their time with Complete Distraction:

The seafloor off the coast of Northern Siberia is releasing more than twice the amount of methane as previously estimated, according to new research results.
Methane is a greenhouse gas more than 30 times more potent than carbon dioxide.
Natalia Shakhova, one of the lead researchers on the study, said methane releases from the Arctic seafloor are, “now on par with the methane being released from the arctic tundra, which is considered to be one of the major sources of methane in the Northern Hemisphere.” To put this in perspective, just seven years ago, estimates suggested that only 500,000 tons of methane were being released into Earth’s atmosphere each year. Now we’re measuring 17 million tons of it. Just in the Arctic.
While billions around the globe still occupy their time with Complete Distraction and entertainments, life on Earth is literally imploding. The level of mainstream media spin and omission in regard to what is unfolding is difficult to comprehend. The general public is all too willing to accept the fact less facade that is fed to them day in and day out while life on Earth disintegrates around us all. Our collective future quite literally now rely on those that are awake and willing to help sound the alarm.
Hello; Not much new from what I keep on posting. Yesterday 7-1-14 all day thru our rain clouds were broken down to nothing with whited out chemtrailed skies left from much spraying (Southwest-N.M.). Today 7-2-14 the same occurred, a repeat of yesterday. It weighed heavy on me thinking that what these lowlifes really want is for the common person to revolt when the masses wake up (if) giving them a more than good reason to waste us with no second thought. I believe their is no further way to explain this. We are practically there for martial law being enacted people, serfdom. God only knows if it’ll come down to this. What will the common person do? He is really our only freedom; (oh) and by the way it is written that when the Lord comes there will be much bloodshed up to the horses bridle for many furlongs with His vengeance on this Earth which is His footstool….
