The country’s beekeepers reported that 31.1% of their colonies perished in the months spanning last fall through early 2013.

The number of bee casualties in that period--twice that considered natural--is in keeping with rising honeybee mortality rates of the last six years. Scarier still, scientists aren’t exactly sure as to the cause for the degrading health of bee populations--something that should give you great cause for concern. After all, without bees, you can kiss your favorite fruits and nuts goodbye. Well, you don’t have to. In a press release, Whole Foods says the stunt was part of the “Share the Buzz” campaign, a joint project with The Xerces Society that seeks to “raise awareness” about the importance of bees (honeybees in particular) to the health and vibrancy of our food system.

Or as Whole Foods puts it: Cleaning, Disinfection, and Sterilization of medical instruments and supplies in survival situations. In survival situations, medical emergencies will arise. One of the main concerns with any medical procedures is clean, sterilized equipment so as to not pass on infection and compound or completely compromise any medical procedures that must be done.. Here is a basic primer on disinfection and sterilization in survival situations Q. What is the difference between disinfection and sterilization?

A. Sterility is only a temporary state – once sterile packaging is open or the product has been removed from an autoclave colonization begins almost immediately just from exposure to air and bacteria present in the environment.

Quoted in an article in US News onDecember 24, Dr. Through his declaration of the imminent nature of a pandemic, Kim adds his name to a growing list of insiders who are stating that we are shortly facing a disease event of a global magnitude. At the very time that our attention is focused on the possibility of losing our rights to defend ourselves via our potential loss of our second amendment rights, the insidious possibility of a global pandemic is lurking....well, right under our pavement.

The possibility for utilization of the water system as a delivery system for a pandemic-type agent remains salient. Truthfully, I prefer the word “genocide” to “population reduction.” Dr. Merck has been under scrutiny for a number of years for problems with its products, including drugs such as Temodar, PegIntron, and Intron A. United States Accused of Planting Avian Flu in Recent H7N9 Outbreak. Janet C. PhelanActivist Post Amidst allegations by a highly placed Colonel in the Chinese army that the U.S. has released a bioweapon in Mainland China, concerns are ramping up that this year's version of the avian flu, H7N9, may turn into a major pandemic.

The last few years have seen several false alarms on the pandemic front. Neither the bird flu of 2004 nor the swine flu of 2009-2010 ended up being of much concern, although agencies from the WHO on down certainly created quite a flurry around both of these flu bugs. H7N9 has already shown itself to have a high mortality rate, higher in fact than the Spanish flu of 1918, which caused 50 million deaths worldwide. According to Keiji Fukuda, WHO's assistant director-general for health, security and the environment, "This is definitely one of the most lethal influenza viruses that we have seen so far. " Already, there are questions as to whether H7N9 has mutated and is now transmissible from human to human. Prepper Ideas. Water Filter Options- What is the Best Filtered Water?

Did you hear about the 800 esteemed scientists who came together and demanded the production of genetically modified crops and products be stopped ?

Scientists who called on world powers to re-evaluate the future of agriculture and seek sustainability rather than corporate profits ? Don’t be surprised if you haven’t, as the mainstream media won’t touch this one. Eight-hundred scientists did make such a demand. They made it first over a decade ago and they have updated it over the years, adding signatures and release dates. Still global powers have all but ignored their calls. The Institute of Science in Society is a non-profit group of scientists from around the world, dedicated to bringing an end to what they refer to as the “dangerous GMO “experiment.

In their open letter to the world, they have highlighted why governments need to stop genetically modified crops now – before there are irreversible effects on the health of the people and the health of the earth at large. Source: Why Do Many Muslims Gain Weight During Ramadan? Lead Paint Trial: Did Industry Promote Product Knowing Of Its Toxic Dangers? Despite an internal company memo in 1900 that read, "any paint is poisonous in proportion to the percentage of lead contained in it," Sherwin-Williams Co. went on to become a leading lead-based paint manufacturer and to promote with other members of the industry the use of paint with large percentages of lead -- "the higher, the better. " "White lead should be the basic ingredient of all white paint and light tints," read a Sherwin-Williams magazine advertisement in the 1920s.

"It is to these paints exactly what flour is to bread. " Sherwin-Williams is now one of five corporations that went on trial in California this week, facing claims they knowingly poisoned generations of children with the neurotoxic heavy metal and continue to do so today, with lead-based paint lingering and deteriorating on the walls of homes.

I think we’d all agree with that. We talk to people about gmo’s, radiation, dying bees, chemtrails etc., trying to spread the word of planetary genocide. We get mad, or rather I do, when they respond with apathy. I say to myself, what’s wrong with them?

Don’t they care about their children, the planet and its creatures? The short answer is NO. A third dimensional consciousness lives only for the senses and base instincts. They are nothingness, just reproducing in the programme like other animals. So what about us, the tired warriors of change? The answer is: We are not third dimensional beings in terms of spiritual frequency. Our mission is to destroy the Archon programme in ourselves and access the fifth chakra: the pentagon of space.

Only through the Heart can this be achieved. Are we alone in our struggle against the Archon dark? No, we are not. We and our world are made up of five great Titans; the powers that never sleep.
