Clear and Present Danger
We’ve heard about Anthropogenic (human-generated) Climate Change, and less frequently the threat of a nuclear war between rival super powers as the biggest threats facing humanity and life on this planet.
There are however less talked about dangers which are just as pressing and demanding of attention. Seldom are these perils confronted in any serious way.
The first of these, that will be explored in this week’s Global Research News Hour radio programme, is the threat posed by nuclear radiation from the nuclear industry.
The Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear facility, which became crippled by an earthquake and tsunami almost four years ago, is estimated to have released over 25 million billion becquerels of Cesium-137 radiation into the ocean in just the four months following the disaster. [1] According to a major study, in the 14 weeks following the Fukushima meltdowns, radio-active fall-out that descended on North America resulted in 14,000 excess US deaths. [2]
There are dozens of other nuclear plants in the US and around the world that could likewise melt down as infrastructure breaks down. Nuclear radiation in the air, water, and food supply represent a clear and present threat to all life on this planet.
Another critical concern is the amount of toxic material being deliberately being inserted into the atmosphere, apparently with the aim of affecting climate.

Commonly referred to as ‘chemtrails,’ the release of reflective microscopic particles by aircraft in order to affect the amount of sunlight reaching the earth is having an impact not only on weather, but on human, plant and animal health.
These and other weather modification techniques have been not only contemplated, but in effect for decades, as is well documented. (see document above.)
Yet, discussion of these artificial climate control mechanisms is virtually absent from all mainstream around climate change. In fact, like counternarratives around the 9/11 attacks, ongoing geo-engineering programs through ‘chemtrailing’, solar radiation management, HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program ) and other mechanisms is commonly referred to as a ‘conspiracy theory’ in public discourse.
This week’s Global Research News Hour introduces these planetary perils with two outspoken, passionate and knowledgeable guests.
Mimi German is a self-described Earth Activist, with the grassroots group No Nukes Northwest, and is founder of Radcast.org which monitors radiation readings world-wide. She speaks to the nuclear question in the first half hour.
Dane Wigington has an extensive background in the field of solar energy, a licensed contractor and a former employee of Bechtel. The founder of the information site geoengineeringwatch.org, Wigington is convinced that geo-engineering is the number one threat facing humanity at present, and expands on his research in the second half hour.

About methane, Bill Gates’s gas problem, and technology ideals that we don’t need:
So Bill Gates is now a climate specialist, social planner, bio-engineer, and profound environmentalist. The problem with Bill Gates is that he hasn’t a clue as to how his wonderful plastic junk and associated electromagnetic emissions; cause MASSIVE increases in global energy usage. Here are some facts regarding the energy hog “wireless” and computer technology represents:
The first thing to consider is total terawatt hours consumed planet wide circa 2001:
1 Terawatt = 1 trillion watts
3.327 TWh = average daily power consumption of the U.S. in 2001
13.5 TWh = average daily power consumption of the world in 2001
174,000 TWh = average daily supply of energy to Planet Earth
Every day, Earth receives 12,000 times as much energy
as civilization uses.
http://www.terrawatts.com/
Observe the figures below. These figures are limited to wireless cloud and communications, only. What are the total planet wide consumption figures circa 2014?
Excerpted from: The Power of the Wireless Cloud
[“Our team at the Centre for Energy-Efficient Telecommunications (CEET) set itself the task of finding out how much energy the wireless cloud will consume in 2015 compared to 2012.
We analyzed product specification sheets, publicly available reports and white papers, peer-reviewed journal articles, and used all of the available information to create a wireless cloud energy consumption model.
Our energy calculations from this model show that, by 2015, wireless cloud will consume up to 43 terawatt hours (TWh) worldwide, compared with only 9.2 TWh in 2012. That’s a 460% increase in just three years.
In terms of approximate carbon footprint estimates, this is an increase in carbon footprint from 6 megaton’s of CO2 in 2012 to up to 30 megaton’s of CO2 in 2015 – the equivalent of adding 4.9 million cars to the roads.
We found 90% of this consumption is attributable to wireless access network technologies (WiFi and 4G LTE). Data centers account for only 9%, with the remaining 1% accounted for by the network.
The full results and are contained in our recently released white paper The Power of the Wireless Cloud.”]

Bill Gates is basically a good salesman, yet an environmental ghoul and an industrial slob. People made a folk hero of Steven Jobs as well. These guys are nothing more than toy peddlers, yet the media would have us praise them as gods…
Bill Gates on energy: Innovating to zero!

Recently I saw a doc about the radiation currently escaping from barrels placed in the ocean as a way for England, France and Germany to dispose of their spent fuel. These barrels are now corroded and leaking yet the govt refuses to let anyone recover these barrels – worse the placement was not precise so they don’t really have a good record to know where these barrels really are located.
Then I saw the special on the radiation being sent via Pipe to the Irish Sea – England can get away with this because it is not specifically forbidden to send radiation by pipe to the ocean. People are playing in the sand at the beach while radioactive slush is being poured into the Irish Sea and those people don’t have a clue as to what they are being exposed to. No wonder so many people are dying at very early ages – after decades of being inundated with radiation, it finally takes its toll on the human body. Liposomic Vitamin C or Vitamin C injections are a good remedy but how many people know about this? I fear for us all. Surely everyone has read that the US govt has ordered specific meds to protect against radiation? The democratic convention had a crew using tools to measure their banquet food to ensure it was not radioactive. Our govt is as corrupt as any that ever existed.
It´s amazing the temperatures in Syberia posted by Freedom ranger.This just shows us how global warming deniers are so wrong.The radiation are another time bomb as geoengeneering is ,it´s getting worst as the time is passing… the same with methane bomb that is being released everyday …do we need more ?of course there´s other things …Is there anything right in this planet?not even information by our oficial Media is right or have correct data !they entertain us with other things as “the house of secrets”(big brother type of show)or football or fiction novel ,everybody knows “news” about this kind of programs but if they talk about how crazy the weather is or how cold it is and i start talking about geoengeneering they ignore it or laugh …how is it possible to change anything if people don´t seem to care or don´t search for information?They trust in imediate easy news that gives them no trouble to get it ,…in this news they trust!
Radiation leakage from nuclear power generation and mining of radio nucleotides is just one of many subjects the Nuclear Regulatory Agency chooses to sweep under the rug. The notion that nuclear energy is “clean” energy, would be laughable if it weren’t for the fact that most people actually believe the advertising blurb.
Another major element: If any large scale social upheaval would take place in any modern country serviced by nuclear power grids, these grids will more than likely become very unstable in terms of current draw. Nuclear power plants are inherently unstable or “conditionally” stable devices. That is: They need to dissipate power in a predictable and stable manner, or they themselves become “marginally” stable very quickly. There are computer controlled systems built into modern plants to help mitigate these instabilities, yet there are serious stability problems in nearly every nuclear power plant thus designed. These plants can go into an unregulated “surge” mode within minutes, and the entire physical facility can self-destruct very quickly.
Social revolution sounds like a great idea to fools who gad about with protest signs on Wall Street. If these same persons actually perceived the potential dangers of 400+ marginally stable power plants, they’d be focusing on having them all shut down SAFELY well ahead of time…
Something I read a while ago was that some authority in the USA that controls or stipulates the level of acceptable radiation in food quietly lifted the limit. I cannot remember where or what web site. Also Freedom Ranger’s comments about other forces involvement I tend to agree with, scary days that we live in for sure. Keep up the good work Dane.
thank u dane for your thought to save humanity .i love the planet my heart broke today when i eyeballed the nebraska ski to day was a purple sunrise i am in total shock been bummed all day friends called about football i thought about what u said last week be safe all
I used to think they were at least trying to mitigate the methane release in the arctic. The Fukushima event is a contrived disaster they intend to depopulate the earth with. I mean look at these temps in Cherkisy Siberia, ESAS, where the methane release is coming from.

95 degrees in the arctic. The scumleets are trying to increase the rates of methane release. They are not mitigating it in any way, shape or form. They are planning on turning out the lights quick. They dont care about awarenes they are trying to make this extinction happen. I almost believe they are demons simply trying to destroy creation. WOW, they dont want to help the situation they want it to escalate. I mean what do you do with information like this? EVERYONE INVOLVED WITH THIS COVERUP AND I MEAN EVERYONE IS GUILTY OF THE MOST PROFOUND TREASON. I ESPECIALLY HATE THE METEOROLOGISTS WHO ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON. WHAT SHAMEFUL EVIL COWARDS. .
Hello Freedom Ranger, yes, the temperatures in many regions are astoundingly high, and certainly it is ever more apparent that eugenics is one of the agendas being carried out by those in power. This being said, I would argue against the notion that the power structure is trying to trigger the methane releases. Though they are indeed making that situation worse with all they are doing, if the methane release continues the planet will soon resemble Venus and those in power know it. Your last statement is absolutely on target “EVERYONE INVOLVED WITH THIS COVERUP AND I MEAN EVERYONE IS GUILTY OF THE MOST PROFOUND TREASON. I ESPECIALLY HATE THE METEOROLOGISTS WHO ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON. WHAT SHAMEFUL EVIL COWARDS.”
