  1. Ummm really? How in the world the top 3 or 4 are not the current ongoing disasters including climate change, overfishing and the complete destruction of the seafloor near the biggest fisheries of he world, like the Somalian coast (yup, there are pirates and constant war there mostly because multinational fishing fleets literally destroyed their chances of life by destroying the fish populations just as one single example) and the deforestation and homogenization of vast areas of nature just for agriculture .

  2. You know USA and, to an extent Mexico, have their own disaster quite like the Aral lake disappearance, and that it is still deliberately sustained? The Colorado River Delta wetlands are merely 5% of what they were before all those dams.

  3. Deepl translation:
    +++ Call to all passive members worldwide +++
    Dear passive members around the world,
    As you know, circumstances urge us to use the time wisely and to inform the general public about the root cause of all evils, first and foremost environmental destruction and the climate catastrophe: The overpopulation that, like a rat's tail, brings about so much negativity and destruction.
    The following list of Ptaah (taken from the FIGU-Zeitzeichen special edition no. 4) could serve as a guideline, which you can use in letters to the editor, blogs, forums, social media etc. etc:
    The articles of daily use, which on the one hand are absolutely necessary for all people to live, but which on the other hand the majority of the masses of overpopulation want to have irresponsibly and unscrupulously as luxury goods at any price and at the expense of the climate, the ecosystem, the life and health of mankind, led to the climate catastrophe. So the fact is: If there were no overpopulation, all the evils that are rampant all over the world today would never have arisen. The fact is that without overpopulation there would not be the following planetary tragic fatal plagues, such as:
    1. Pollution (garbage of all kinds)
    2. environmental degradation (exploitation of earth resources, destruction of land through land development with roads, buildings, airports, sports facilities, factories, energy plants, etc.)
    3. water pollution (streams, rivers, ponds, lakes, seas)
    4. groundwater poisoning (by liquid manure, washing, toilet and cosmetic products, heavy metals,
    herbicides, pesticides, copper from BIO plant protection treatment, all kinds of toxins, etc.)
    5. marine litter (plastic waste, other plastics and rubbish of all kinds, etc. in the oceans)
    6. ecosystem destruction (destruction of nature and all its fauna, or destruction of the biocoenosis of organisms of all genera and species of the inanimate environment; the habitat, the habitats, the inanimate 〔abiotischen〕und animate 〔biotischen〕Komponenten)
    7. atmospheric poisoning
    8. climate destruction
    9. natural disasters in increasing numbers and on ever worsening proportions
    10. energy problems
    11. hunger in third world countries
    12. forest fires, steppe fires, bush fires, peat fires, etc.
    13. jungle fires = impenetrable, swampy forest in the tropics
    14. virgin forest fires = original, uncultivated forest with rich fauna and flora (in the tropics)".
    Yours faithfully, the core group of the 49, CH-8495 Hinterschmidrüti
    Please help to the best of your ability and knowledge to ensure that this important information is made public and reaches as many people as possible, who can then ultimately contribute to a positive change.

  4. So the US is connected to or directly responsible for almost all of the worst man-made natural disasters. Sweet. Which, speaking of, why is climate change not on this list?

  5. Allah has made you brethren one to another, so be not divided. An Arab has no preference over a non-Arab, nor a non-Arab over an Arab; nor is a white one to be preferred to a dark one, nor a dark one to a white one as right

  6. I've been lucky enough to have been able to take the 2-day Chernobyl tour. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life! And the tour is actually quite safe, the tour is not "tourist-y". It is conducted with the utmost respect for the events that happened there, and is not somber, but you do get the full effect of a place forever frozen in time like a modern Pompeii. I highly recommend the tour from the amazing people at ChernobylWelcome.com!
