One thing we are being taught today is that man’s impact on the Earth is detrimental. It is the fault of man that the climate changes, winter storms worsen, summer seasons become warmer, and hurricanes become stronger. Anything perceived as being “bad” that stems from the Earth is classified as a perverse, anthropomorphic reaction of the Earth to a parasitic human kind that has sought only to destroy its host.
We blame naturally occurring phenomena on ourselves so often that things that can be explained through commonly known scientific evidence become confusing and are dismissed. The reality is that man’s impact is inconsequential in Earth’s bigger, evolutionary picture. We cannot control it and therefore we dismiss it, deny it, and refuse to accept it because it is in fact, bigger than man himself.
In recent weeks and months, we have been baffled by flocks of birds that seemingly dropped dead in mid flight. Explanation after explanation was provided in order to rationalize these events into terms that created a perception that “normal” events were at play; that man was still in control of his host. However, another and more sensible theory exists - a theory that suggests man is a mere evolutionary adaption of a much bigger ever-evolving planet serving only as a temporary harborer of life as we currently know it.
Noctilucent clouds of poison
The shifting of magnetic north towards Russia has been highly publicised. Though it has temporarily closed airports, many do not fully understand why. The runway markings that almost all are familiar with indicate magnetic compass headings. A runway marked 18R/36L as in the case in Florida, simply means that the runway aligns 180 degrees from north, or due south and 360 degrees from south, or due north. This runway has been re-designated as 19R/1L to indicate the degree shift in magnetic north, which is moving at a rate of 40 miles per year.(1)
While runway markings are routinely changed every few years to adjust to a constantly moving magnetic north pole, the shifting pole is no longer moving in the circular motion of Earth’s precession. This rapid shifting in magnetic north can be put in perspective by looking back a mere 420 years.(2),(3) The magnetic pole has always been in motion, but in the last 10 years, there has been a 500% increase in the magnetic pole’s movement in comparison to the previous four and a half centuries.(2)
This acceleration in the pole’s shift is part of a natural cycle of a larger process known as geomagnetic reversal where the magnetic pole of north shifts to the magnetic pole of south and vice versa.(4) Geomagnetic reversal is an unpredictable process that is chaotic in nature. This “chaos” causes turbulence in Earth’s magnetic field, or magnetosphere. The magnetic field around the Earth protects the planet from solar wind and thus forms an electromagnetic shield from harmful gases that surround the planet. As the turbulence disrupts the magnetic field around the planet, harmful gaseous clouds escape into Earth’s atmosphere.(4),(5)
It is theorized that these “space clouds” sink deep enough into Earth’s atmosphere to encounter birds in flight. Such noctilucent clouds have high radar reflectivity. On New Year’s Eve, birds again fell from the sky in the same location and at about the same time weather radar picked up the non-precipitation target.(6) The gaseous make up of these noctilucent clouds is hydrogen cyanide, a chemical asphyxiant.(7) It is thus theorized that the birds flew into the cloud, suffocated, and fell 1,300 feet to the ground which caused the “blunt trauma” that has been ruled the cause of death. It is interesting to note that no suggestions are made other than the ambiguous blunt trauma from the birds hitting the ground.(4)
New revelation of human insignificance
Such clouds are consistent with magnetic turbulence and have led to a growing concern of human vulnerability. If a cloud were to descend to ground level in a populated area, humans would be helpless and succumb to its suffocating effects within minutes. Theories such as this are often dispelled not on the science that backs them, but on the emotive response that follows the reality of the human insignificance it reveals.(8)
We have been taught to believe that nothing exists beyond the control of man, as it is man who insists his influence controls the world. We are taught global warming is manmade, despite the cyclic warming and cooling climate patterns that date millions of years beyond that of the existence of man, while further refuting the current warming pattern is responsible for our own evolution.(9) We insist upon ourselves so strongly that we now have trouble accepting that which is beyond our control. As geomagnetic reversal becomes more of a concern, increasing efforts are made to expand upon other factors to explain the otherwise inexplicable.
In many ways, it is not a matter of birds falling from the sky, or a shifting magnetic pole. It is a matter of people being willing to accept their own insignificance and even temporary existence on a planet that has been kind enough to play host to human life as it evolves before, with and beyond us. The signs of a changing planet are most evident. Perhaps the time approaches that human mortality may be viewed in more practical terms.
