fWotD Episode 3004: Liz Truss Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 26 July 2025, is Liz Truss.Mary Elizabeth Truss (born 26 July 1975) is a British politician who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Leader of the Conservative Party from September to October 2022. On her fiftieth day in office, she stepped down amid a government crisis, making her the shortest-serving prime minister in British history. The member of Parliament (MP) for South West Norfolk from 2010 to 2024, Truss held various Cabinet positions under three prime ministers—David Cameron, Theresa May and Boris Johnson—lastly as foreign secretary from 2021 to 2022.Truss studied philosophy, politics and economics at Merton College, Oxford, and was the president of the Oxford University Liberal Democrats. In 1996, she joined the Conservative Party. She worked at Royal Dutch Shell and Cable & Wireless, and was the deputy director of the think tank Reform. After two unsuccessful attempts to be elected to the House of Commons, she became the MP for South West Norfolk at the 2010 general election. As a backbencher she called for reform in several policy areas including the economy, childcare and mathematics in education. Truss co-founded the Free Enterprise Group of Conservative MPs and wrote or co-wrote a number of papers and books, including After the Coalition and Britannia Unchained.Truss was Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Childcare and Education from 2012 to 2014 before Cameron appointed her Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs in a cabinet reshuffle. Although she campaigned for Britain to remain in the European Union, Truss supported Brexit following the outcome of the 2016 referendum. Following Cameron's resignation in 2016 his successor, Theresa May, appointed her Secretary of State for Justice and Lord Chancellor, making Truss the first woman to serve as Lord Chancellor in the office's thousand-year history; in the aftermath of the 2017 general election she was demoted to Chief Secretary to the Treasury. After May announced her resignation in May 2019 Truss supported Johnson's successful bid to become Conservative leader and prime minister. He appointed Truss Secretary of State for International Trade and President of the Board of Trade in July and subsequently to the additional role of Minister for Women and Equalities in September. Johnson promoted Truss to foreign secretary in the 2021 cabinet reshuffle; during her time in the position, she led negotiations on the Northern Ireland Protocol and the British response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.In September 2022, Truss defeated Rishi Sunak in a leadership election to succeed Johnson, who had resigned because of an earlier government crisis, and was appointed prime minister by Queen Elizabeth II two days before the monarch's death; the government's business was subsequently suspended during a national mourning period of ten days. In response to the rising cost of living and increased energy prices, Truss's ministry announced the Energy Price Guarantee. The government then announced large-scale tax cuts and borrowing, which led to financial instability and were largely reversed. Facing mounting criticism and loss of confidence in her leadership, Truss announced her resignation as leader of the Conservative Party on 20 October. Sunak was elected unopposed as her successor, and appointed prime minister on 25 October. After spending the duration of Sunak's premiership on the backbenches, Truss lost her seat at the 2024 general election.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:37 UTC on Saturday, 26 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Liz Truss on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Stephen.

En el Radar Empresarial de hoy analizamos los posibles rumores que apuntan a una posible adquisición de BP por parte de Shell. Según informaciones de Bloomberg, en las últimas semanas la compañía ha estado estudiando la viabilidad de la operación. Según el medio económico, estas deliberaciones se encuentran en una etapa temprana y que cualquier decisión de cara al futuro podría depender de si las acciones de British Petroleum continúan cayendo. La compañía podría esperar a que surja otro candidato. Shell fue protagonista la semana pasada por la presentación de resultados del primer trimestre que mejoraron las previsiones de los analistas. La compañía británica-holandesa presentó una caída en los beneficios del 28%. Aún así, estos superaron las previsiones del mercado. El consenso de analistas esperaba unas ganancias netas ajustadas que apenas superaran los 5.000 millones. Shell consiguió 500 millones de dólares más. Esto hizo que las acciones de la empresa subieran más de un 2% en la Bolsa de Londres. Aunque exista esta disminución de beneficios y los ingresos caigan un 6% en comparación con el mismo periodo del año anterior, la compañía mejora respecto al primer trimestre. La petrolera anuncia un flujo de caja operativo de más 8.000 millones de dólares. Shell anuncia también un dividendo de 33 céntimos. La compañía sigue firme con su plan de recompra de acciones, que tendrá un valor de 3.500 millones de dólares. Este se extenderá durante los siguientes tres meses y supone el décimo cuarto trimestre consecutivo que se produce un plan de recompra de acciones con un valor de al menos 3.000 millones de dólares. En la compañía ya es bastante habitual este tipo de estrategia, ya que los economistas opinan que las empresas que hacen este tipo de plan buscan optimizar su estructura de capital y mejorar los retornos para los accionistas. Shell se fundó en 1907 con el nombre de Royal Dutch Shell. Esta compañía derivó de la fusión de la Real Compañía Neerlandesa de Petróleos y Shell Transport and Trading Company. Esta fusión tenía como objetivo competir con el gigante estadounidense Standard Oil. Las primeras operaciones de la compañía saliente de este acuerdo se hicieron en Venezuela, en 1912, a través de su subsidiaria Caribbean Petroleum Company.

The rampant rise of greenwashing threatens to undermine genuine sustainability efforts and mislead consumers, with over 900 businesses in Europe being accused of the practice in 2024.  Greenwashing can come in many different forms, and the tactics used aren't always easy to spot. In this episode, Mel dives into the 7 shades of greenwashing and explains the common greenwashing tactics you should be on the lookout for. You'll learn ·      What is Greencrowding? ·      What is Greenlighting? ·      What is Greenshifting? ·      What is Greenlabelling? ·      What is Greenrinsing? ·      What is Greenhushing? ·      What is Greenmasking?   Resources ·      Carbonology ·      7 Shades of Greenwashing Guide   In this episode, we talk about: [02:05] Episode Summary – In the 2nd part of this 3-part series on greenwashing, we dive into the various methods and tactics used by businesses to avoid their sustainability obligations. [03:05] What is greencrowding?: This tactic relies on safety in numbers and occurs when different groups (like governments, organisations and companies) join forces to create the impression of making significant environmental changes. For example, 8 of the world's biggest 20 plastic polluters including companies such as Royal Dutch Shell, Coca-Cola, and BP are part of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste, however the group moves at the speed of the slowest member and sets low environmental targets to stall action as it is often costly and involves a lot of the companies resources and time [03:55] What is greenlighting? – This is when companies spotlight a particularly ‘green' product or operation which helps to draw attention away from tis otherwise environmentally damaging activities. Commonly seen in the car industry, recent BMW campaigning highlights the company's electric vehicles, despite being heavily invested in combustion engine vehicles therefore not addressing their major source of emissions. Another example is Exxonmobil, who heavily advertised its “advanced biofuels” made from algae, however didn't mention the fact that the biofuels made up a miniscule part of production. Since coming under scrutiny Exxonmobil have rescinded this project altogether and haven't looked to practical alternatives. [05:15] What is greenshifting? - This is where the blame gets shifted onto consumers. BP's “Know your carbon footprint” campaign is a key example, it invited customers to share pledges for reducing their individual emissions yet BP's core business continue to partake and scheme hugely polluting oil and gas projects. Another example include H&M who urged consumers to recycle their old clothes yet, the company continues to be a prime culprit in fast-fashion and have a significant part to plat in over-consumerism leading to environmental degradation. [06:10] The growing need for comprehensive carbon reporting – This occurs when companies use words like ‘eco', ‘sustainable' or related wording or symbols conveying green messaging with no evidence to support it. Kohl's and Walmart were sued for labelling toxic rayon textiles as eco-friendly bamboo. Another more recent example is McDonald's Paper Straws where In 2019 a paper straws to introduced to replace plastic ones, claiming it was an eco-friendly move. However, it was later revealed that these paper straws were not recyclable, leading to criticism that the company was misleading consumers about the environmental benefits. [07:15] What is greenrinsing? - This is where companies change their sustainability commitments or targets before actually achieving them. Repeatedly, Coca-cola has missed and moved its recycling targets. Between 2020 – 2022, the company dropped its targets for using recycled packaging from 50% by 2030 to 25% proving these targets were not sufficiently made. BP and ExxonMobil are two more examples of being criticized for frequently updating their climate targets without substantial progress. Various ambitious goals were announced over the years, but critics argue that these targets are often revised or postponed making it hard to assess real achievements and also trust between consumers, investors and legal frameworks are lost. So the takeaway here is, make sure you're targets are realistic! [08:45] What is greenhushing? – This occurs when companies deliberately underreport or hide green credentials to evade scrutiny, which is a rising practice found in larger firms who struggle to successfully hit their targets/ aims. Commonly found with firms that make distant net zero targets but do not report on progress. It allows them to hide the fact that they are not taking meaningful steps. Companies often avoid reporting positive environmental measures they may be taking to prevent greenwashing accusations which can be argued as counter-productive in the efforts to help drive systemic and industrial change in the most polluting industries. H&M and ExxonMobil are key examples of greenhushing and no-longer actively promote their sustainability practices as they have faced criticism over false / limited actions in the past.  This one is rather damaging, especially to those who are taking meaningful sustainable action, but may not be keeping up with their targets. This is why it's so crucial to make those targets obtainable. If this practice continues, then there is less pressure overall for businesses to do their part for sustainability. It's important to celebrate the victories, no matter how small, as it all adds up to the bigger picture. [10:55] What is greenmasking? - Greenmasking (a term coined by Carbonology®) is used to describe the practice where organisations self-certify their environmental impact without independent verification. This means they claim their green credentials are accurate while avoiding transparency about their methodology and data. Essentially, they are "marking their own homework," which can lead to misleading claims about their sustainability efforts. Some companies offer ISO 14064 consulting and verification services that may not always adhere to the rigorous standards required for genuine verification. This can result in poor practices and undermine the credibility of the certification. For example, some consulting firms might offer ISO 14064 verification as part of their services but fail to conduct thorough and independent audits. Instead, they may ‘verify' the data is correct in-house. This can lead to situations where companies are able to self-label their environmental impact as compliant with ISO 14064 without truly meeting the standard's requirements. This results in a vast amount of unreliable and untrustworthy data that is purportedly verified. Furthermore, with some consultancy companies asserting that offering both consultancy and verification within the same firm is a viable option, it paves the way for poor reporting standards to be accepted, only worsening the problem in the long run. Greenmasking can have significant implications for stakeholders, including investors, customers, and regulators, who rely on accurate and transparent environmental reporting. To combat greenmasking, it is crucial for organisations to seek independent and accredited verification of their GHG emissions ensuring that their sustainability claims are credible and based upon the rigorous standards stated in ISO14064-3.

(Conversation recorded on November 5th, 2024)     It is no secret that population dynamics significantly impact global stability. But what's really behind today's shifting global birth trends, the increased need for medically-assisted pregnancy, and the changing age demographics of industrialized nations? Furthermore, what are the implications of these shifts for future economic security?  Today, Nate is joined by investment strategist Jeremy Grantham to discuss the critical but underreported issues surrounding toxicity and public health – particularly endocrine disruptors and their impact on human fertility, longevity, and societal structures.  In this important conversation, Jeremy highlights the ubiquitousness of toxicity in our modern environments, the cultural and economic factors contributing to declining fertility rates, and the urgent need to transition to non-toxic materials and energy sources.  In what ways could population decline pose serious economic challenges, particularly in aging societies? How might the alarming drop in sperm count affect future policies on immigration? Finally, how can we detoxify both our environments – and capitalism – before it's too late?   About Jeremy Grantham: Jeremy Grantham co-founded GMO in 1977 and is a member of GMO's Asset Allocation team, serving as the firm's long-term investment strategist. He is a member of the GMO Board of Directors, a partner of the firm, and has also served on the investment boards of several non-profit organizations. Additionally in 1989, Jeremy co-founded the Grantham Foundation for the Protection of the Environment.

The saga begins with an emigre from Sweden, Immanuel Nobel, who was an architect, a pioneer producer of steam engines, and a maker of weapons.Immanuel's sons included Alfred; Robert, who directed the family's activities in the Caspian oil fields; and Ludwig, an engineering genius and manufacturing magnate whose boundless energy and fierce determination created the Russian petroleum industry.Ludwig's son Emanuel showed similar mettle, shrewdly bargaining with the Rothschilds for control of the Russian markets and competing head-on with Standard Oil and Royal Dutch Shell for lucrative world markets.Perhaps no family in history has played so decisive a role in building an industrial empire in an underdeveloped but resource-rich nation. Yet the achievements of the Nobel family have been largely forgotten. When the Bolsheviks came to power, Emmanuel had to flee the country disguised as a peasant.The Nobel empire with its 50,000 workers lay in ruins. An empire which had taken eighty years to design and build, was nearly destroyed, bringing a sudden and bitter end to one of the most remarkable industrial odysseys in world history.This episode is what I learned from reading The Russian Rockefellers: The Saga of the Nobel Family and the Russian Oil Industry by Robert Tolf.----Make history's greatest entrepreneurs proud by going to Ramp and learning how they can help your business control your costs and save more. ----Founders Notes gives you the superpower to learn from history's greatest entrepreneurs on demand.

Bienvenidos a un nuevo directo desde Twitter. Esta noche tendremos el gusto de tener con nosotros al escritor y periodista Manuel Valera. Si muchos de vosotros no lo conocéis es precisamente porque lo que cuenta Manuel no hace mucha gracia al poder y por ello es relegado en el mejor de los casos al ostracismo y en el peor a la mas dura de las censuras. El tema que nos propuso Manuel fue el de la manipulación del lenguaje y más concretamente todos estos aspectos: Discurso real frente a discurso aparente del poder. Empobrecimiento del lenguaje encaminado a un empobrecimiento del pensamiento. Palabras creadas para el esclavo. Traducción de sus expresiones. Diccionario para nuevos dummies. Ausencia de matices para encaminar al enfrentamiento. Acuñación de términos despectivos para desprestigiar al que no se somete o duda. Inoculación de conceptos y propaganda. Antes de entrar en todo esto junto al invitado me gustaria recordaros que en la descripción del podcast en Ivoox os dejaremos algunos de los mejores documentales y artículos sobre este tema y toda su relación con el control de la sociedad a través de grupos como el Instituto Tavistok o la ingeniería lingüística. Sobre este ultimo punto me gustaría que vieseis el magnifico documental de la filóloga especializada en lingüística, escritora e investigadora Carme Jiménez Huertas donde nos habla sobre los niveles neurológicos y el lenguaje. Nos explica cómo consiguen que obedezcamos y lo que es más importante nos enseña cómo desprogramarnos. Carme nos cuenta que desde el discurso público, se utilizan los mecanismos del lenguaje para la fijación de creencias, la generación de respuestas emocionales y la manipulación social. ¿Cómo han logrado el nivel actual de obediencia? La Filóloga Jiménez Huertas lo expone en varios puntos empezando por el fenómeno de la disidencia controlada, lo que serian los antiguos flautistas de Hamelin. Otro de los puntos es el llamado primado negativo donde a través de contarte una verdad, entre argumentos dramáticos, terror o de comedia, se genera en la memoria implícita un sentimiento de rechazo hacia esa información tomándola como falsa. Ocurre cuando nos presentan una futura realidad o programación predictiva de una forma surrealista, con emociones negativas asociadas, por lo cual cuando nos toca vivir esa realidad o relacionarnos con ese concepto, lo rechazamos a priori puesto que nuestro inconsciente lo asoció como algo improbable, fantasioso o destructivo. Todo esto sumado a la manipulación informativa y mediática que es donde suele obtener la información la mayoría de la gente y un control de las redes sociales e Internet para que muy poca gente conozca información realmente alternativa hacen que sea muy difícil encontrar la verdad sin manipular. Pongamos el ejemplo de como Google desindexó mi blog hace ya muchos años impidiendo que los navegadores accedan a mostrar resultados de mi blog en sus búsquedas. Hay artículos concretos a los que solo podrás acceder si dispones del enlace completo. Solo es verdad lo que sale en los medios oficiales de información. Esa idea es la que se genera en la población en general al ser bombardeados masivamente con la misma idea desde medios que a priori deberían ser independientes e incluso mostrar perspectivas diferentes. Sin embargo, ante ciertos temas como el cambio climático, la Agenda 2030, la defensa del genero frente al sexo, la violencia machista o muchos otros campos todos los medios al unísono repiten machaconamente las mismas ideas. O nos muestran las mismas noticias, incluso en el mismo orden y forma. Luego tenemos a los llamados fact checkers o verificadores de información cuyo único objetivo es la censura y la promoción de las entrecomillas “verdades oficiales”. Todo esto genera una gran cantidad de desinformación que circula libremente y hace que las personas normales desconfíen mucho más de obtener información fuera del circuito oficial de información. Las redes sociales y los medios de comunicación se dedican a mantener un clima constante de terror lo que hace que la población este bajo control mental y social. El Instituto Tavistock de Relaciones Humanas, en sus siglas TIHR, es una organización británica sin fines de lucro que aplica las ciencias sociales a cuestiones y problemas contemporáneos. Se desarrolló a partir de la Clínica Tavistock, creada por Sir Herbrand Arthur Russell, duque de Bedford y marques de Tavistock que cede un edificio en Londres y desempeñó un papel clave en la psiquiatría del ejército británico. Fue clave en la guerra psicológica durante la época de entreguerras y durante la segunda guerra mundial. Da la casualidad de que Sir Herbrand Arthur Russell fue el onceavo duque de Bedford y familiar del también Sir Bertrand Russell un simpático abuelito que tuvo un importantísimo papel en la educación de múltiples generaciones de profesores y catedráticos del mundo occidental. En un video que tuve el placer de hacer junto a Jorge Guerra titulado “Mundo pasado y mundo futuro” hablamos de como nos la metió doblada el señor Russell. Una de las primeras investigaciones del Instituto Tavistock fueron el trauma en los soldados británicos que habían luchado en la primera guerra mundial. Descubrir dónde está situado el punto mas allá del cual un soldado se quiebra psicológicamente les importaba sobremanera. Recordemos que en esa época estaba de moda el electroshock y las lobotomias tal y cómo les mostré en mis artículos CIENCIA QUE ENVENENA Y AMPUTA CEREBROS I y II. Se estableció formalmente como una entidad separada en septiembre de 1947 tras recibir una importante subvención de la Fundación Rockefeller. Durante las décadas de 1950 y 1960, el TIHR llevó a cabo una serie de proyectos exclusivos en colaboración con importantes empresas, incluidas Unilever, Ahmedabad Manufacturing, Calico Printing Co., Royal Dutch Shell, Bayer y Glacier Metals. Todas ellas importantísimas multinacionales a nivel mundial pero tenemos que creer que el susodicho instituto es una organización sin animo de lucro. Desde la entrada que hay en wikipedia se burlan sobre como los teóricos de la conspiración hablan sobre este instituto, por ejemplo sobre la supuesta teoría conspirativa de “la creación de la música rock y las drogas para rebelarse contra el status quo, socavando y finalmente destruyendo la unidad familiar» Pero si analizamos el libro "La perspectiva Científica" de "sir" Bertrand Russell comprenderemos que en 1931 ya se sabia por donde se iba a desenvolver la sociedad impulsada por esta dictadura científico satánica. Podemos leer en mi articulo MIRANDO HACIA ATRÁS VI: ANTICIPÁNDONOS A HG WELLS CUARTA PARTE: El Proyecto Radio fue una investigación social financiada por la Fundación Rockefeller para estudiar los efectos de los medios de comunicación en la sociedad. En 1937, la Fundación Rockefeller comenzó a financiar la investigación para encontrar los efectos de las nuevas formas de los medios de comunicación en la sociedad, en especial la radio. En 1938 Theodor Adorno filósofo alemán de origen judío cruza el Atlántico para instalarse en Nueva York, donde tenía su sede el Instituto de Investigación Social, una especie de Instituto Tavistock pero creado por la universidad de Frankfurt, y ayuda a crear el rock and roll a principios de la década de 1950. Fue el verdadero compositor de algunas canciones de los Beatles por ejemplo. Esto lo escribía Wells en 1940: “Es fácil convertir a un joven desempleado en un fascista o un gángster, pero es difícil devolverlo a cualquier tarea social decente. Además, el propio liderazgo del Campeón se debió en gran medida a su calidad conspirativa y aventurera. Él mismo no es apto para un trabajo creativo. Se encuentra un luchador a la cabeza de una manada de lucha.» «En todas partes del mundo, en diversas circunstancias locales, vemos gobiernos preocupados principalmente por este problema supremo de qué hacer con estos adultos jóvenes que no pueden trabajar en las condiciones actuales. Tenemos que darnos cuenta de eso y tenerlo constantemente presente. Está allí en todos los países.» «¿Cómo vamos a usar o apagar este excedente de energía humana? Los jóvenes son el núcleo vivo de nuestra especie. La generación de menos de dieciséis o diecisiete años aún no ha comenzado a causar problemas, y después de los cuarenta, el reflujo de la vitalidad hace que los hombres acepten la suerte que les corresponde.« En la página 133 de “El misterio del club de los 27: La manipulación de la industria musical” nos cuentan cómo el señor Adorno era el mago que evolucionó a los Beatles de cucarachas a mariposas. Cuando Michael Jackson intentó adquirir los derechos de las canciones de los Beatles descubrió que éstas pertenecían a los herederos del señor Adorno. Realmente nada es lo que parece y desde luego no deberían fiarse de nada que vds no puedan investigar por su propia cuenta. Si aparece como por ensalmo por todas las cadenas de televisión a la vez habría que dar un paso atrás y empezar a sospechar de que nos quieren vender algo. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Cuando surgió el COVID estaba claro que algo muy gordo y muy oscuro estaban tramando. Todo un nuevo lenguaje surgió como de la nada: Asintomáticos, PCR, pandemia, Coronavirus, desescalada, mascarilla, nueva normalidad, confinamiento, Coronavirus, COVID-19 y SARS-CoV-2, Estado de alarma, distanciamiento social, gel hidroalcohólico y cuarentena. Desde buscadores de la verdad empleamos un lenguaje totalmente diferente que expresaba la realidad de lo que nos rodeaba: Tragipandemia Dícese de la pandemia creada exprofeso para maximizar el miedo y minimizar el problema epidémico real ya que se trata de dramatizar un evento epidemiólogico convencional Balconazi Dícese de las personas que amparadas en el anónimato que les proporcionaba espiar desde su balcón denunciaban a la policía a la gente que estaba en la calle durante el confinamiento por el coronavirus. Telecreyente Persona o grupo de personas que creen a pies juntillas cualquier información que aparezca por televisión sin contrastarla ni dudar lo más mínimo. Oficialnoico Dícese de la persona o grupo de personas que se creen sin rechistar cualquier idea que provenga de los llamados sectores oficiales, el Estado, el Gobierno, sus instituciones académicas o de estamentos u organizaciones internacionales como la ONU, el Banco mundial, el FMI u otras similares. Por otra parte estas personas reniegan de cualquier otra información que provenga de medios no oficiales ya sean medios de comunicación alternativos, investigadores independientes o del propio sentido común. Covidiano Un covidiano es una persona que se ha creído todo lo que desde los mass media, el gobierno y las instituciones le han contado sobre la Tragipandemia. Por más ridículas que sean las exigencias a cumplir un buen covidiano no se formulara ninguna pregunta ni mostrará recelo a la hora de cumplirlas. El nombre de covidiano proviene del nombre de la pandemia COVID19. Un covidiano es un buen telecreyente y se informa por TV de todas las novedades sobre la pandemia. Coronatimo La pandemia de coronavirus SarsCov2 se instaló sin apenas oposición en el mundo occidental pero hubo una parte de la población que no se la creyo, que pensaron que habían sido engañados o timados. Por ello el coronavirus pasó a denominarse coronatimo dentro lo que se llamó la tragipandemia o la plandemia Bozalistán Dícese del antiguo país llamado España que un buen día amaneció lleno de mascarillas por culpa de una Tragipandemia. Estas mascarillas eran conocidas como bozales, de ahí el término bozalistán. Covidganda Al uso abusivo de la propaganda dentro de la campaña de terror informativo de la Tragipandemia del covid19. Coronacircus La Tragipandemia terminó convirtiéndose en una especie de circo donde cada día había alguna medida para prevenir la plandemia más absurda que la anterior. Mientras algunas personas llamaban al pensamiento que desmontaba el coronatimo como magufo y conspiranoico otras tildaban a esas personas como covidianos Satanicario Dícese de la mezcla de sanitario, satanista y sicario. Se trataría de una clase de sanitarios que ya existía antes de la Tragipandemia pero que escondidos en sus quehaceres pasaban desaparecidos ya que desde su posición podían asesinar a un paciente sin tener ningún problema. Un satanicario aprueba y acepta cualquier norma estúpida que provenga de los que han planificado la Tragipandemia que estamos sufriendo desde finales del 2019. PCR Desde Buscadores de la verdad dijimos desde un principio que la técnica de biología molecular PCR Polymerase Chain Reaction ("Reacción en Cadena de la Polimerasa") era un fraude para detectar carga viral o detectar virus. Por ello nosotros hablamos de esta técnica como Kit de caldo para paella porque para nosotros las siglas significan Paella Caldo Recipe. Asimismo los gaditanos hablan de que el PCR es Puchero, Croquetas y Ropa vieja. En Galicia hablan de Pulpo, Calamares y Raxo. Covinazi Cuando un covidiano se vuelve completamente irracional se convierte en un covinazi que es la contracción de nazi y covidiano. Un covinazi es capaz de denunciar a su propia familia en caso de resultar contagiado tras hacerse un test PCR Bozadicción Trauma que mantendrán muchas personas y que les permitirá seguir llevando máscarillas aunque no sean obligatorias. Es una adicción sobretodo de los covidianos que mantienen la Tragipandemia operativa Asintomágico Dícese de las personas sanas que gracias a los test PCR pasan a ser supuestos enfermos de Covid y mantienen en funcionamiento la Tragipandemia. Covimonguer Dícese de la contracción entre covidiano y mongolo. Se trataría de definir a una clase de seres humanos que gracias a ser un telecreyente ha caído en un estado catatónico donde no saben regirse sin seguir las directrices que provienen del Estado en referencia a la Tragipandemia Vacuñao Se llama así a las personas que sin tener ningún tipo de conocimiento acerca de las vacunas, del sistema inmunológico o de medicina nos arengan a vacunarnos a los que nos sentimos en la obligación de hacer uso del sentido común y no denominar vacuna a un tratamiento genético. Se puede aplicar este término para describir a más de un experto con título académico que dice defender la ciencia pero que termina bloqueandote en las redes si le muestras lo que dice la ciencia de verdad y que evidencia que su conocimiento no pasa a ser mejor que el de un cuñado cualquiera. Repentinitis Dícese de las muertes que empezaron a darse de manera repentina tras la vacunación masiva que se produjo durante la Tragipandemia Nazipass Otra forma de llamar al pase nazitario es nazipass de la contracción entre pasaporte y nazi. “En la Alemania nazi se implementó el Gesundheitspass o "pase de salud" que en realidad era un pase para comprobar la pureza de la sangre aria” “Si introducimos esa palabra en la actualidad nos llevará a las páginas oficiales del gobierno austriaco y alemán para registrarnos y conseguir estos nuevos pases verdes” La segregación entre vacunados (puros según la oficialidad actual) y no vacunados (impuros) es exactamente lo mismo que pasó en esos guetos donde se apartaba a los no puros. Este pasaporte sanitario se mantiene en pie gracias a la gente que se ha vuelto covinazi Proctoculo Palabra derivada de protocolo y que significa que un protocolo médico o de otro tipo se aplica mal adrede o viene ya diseñado para que su aplicación cause daños de algún tipo. Sería como realizar algo "como el culo". ………………………………………………………………………………………. El poder de la palabra El poder de la palabra es evidente, porque es a través del lenguaje como se sustancia el pensamiento. Manipular el lenguaje es manipular el pensamiento, la percepción y también el sentimiento de la gente. Por eso, la cara oscura del poder de la palabra es la palabra en manos del poder. Ahí está la cita de que las guerras no comienzan cuando se da el primer tiro, sino cuando los medios de comunicación pasan a emplear una semántica bélica. Los medios de comunicación, que jamás me cansaré de decir que son la correa de transmisión del poder, no están comprados por el poder, sino que pertenecen a él. Y recordamos que su misión es la de inocular tres elementos en la gente: 1. Miedo. 2. Odio. 3. Mentira. Además de elegir lo que es noticia y lo que no lo es, un elemento primordial para ellos, la manipulación, en efecto, está en la palabra. George Orwell nos lo dejó bien claro, y dedicó una serie de ensayos magníficos sobre el asunto. Porque no ha cambiado nada en este sentido nunca. Ahora tienen más medios, pero la estrategia es la misma. César, Napoleón o Stalin seguramente soñaron húmedamente con tener a su disposición los medios de persuasión de los que el poder dispone hoy en día. Paradójicamente, cuanto más poderosos se vuelven esos medios, más fácil es salir de su alcance. Parece mentira, pero es así. Nosotros lo estamos comprobando desde hace al menos cuatro años. En mi caso, por motivos laborales, más allá incluso. Yo me entero de lo que mantiene preocupada y distraída a la gente porque cuando voy al bar me sacan temas de conversación que desconozco por completo. Me voy enterando de las bobadas con las que los entretienen a posteriori, cuando ya se prepara la siguiente dosis de droga informativa. Discurso real y discurso aparente Hace dos o tres décadas, todavía se discutía si existe un poder que gobierne el mundo o no. Hoy esta discusión ya ha sido superada por muchos de nosotros, que no contamos con la sospecha, sino con la certeza de que esto es así. Lo hemos visto en las grandes operaciones de los de arriba contra la población: la plandemia, las crisis económicas, las guerras... Actúan de un modo coordinado, a una misma voz, y los políticos, que son empleados de los poderosos, de los realmente poderosos, se limitan a obedecer y a ejecutar las órdenes criminales que avasallan a la gente. Pues bien, si partimos de esta premisa, habrá que admitir que, salvo los de arriba del todo, no voy a entrar en la identidad de los mismos porque esa línea de debate nos ocuparía todo el programa y nos sacaría del tema de hoy, nadie tiene poder. Nadie. Ni los presidentes, ni los ministros, ni los ejecutivos, ni los directores de empresa, ni los funcionarios del ayuntamiento, ni tu jefe, ni tu presidente de escalera. Nadie tiene al poder. El poder es el que te tiene a ti. El poder te da una sensación de poder, valga la redundancia, pero eres tú la posesión de ese monstruo. Y el poder produce en las personas dos efectos que, dependiendo de la honradez y la bondad de cada cual, tardan más o menos en manifestarse: 1. Manía persecutoria. Todos los que se sienten persuadidos de tener poder piensan que el mundo conspira para quitarlos del puesto que ocupan. 2. Esquizofrenia. Doble personalidad. Los desdobla. Son capaces de lo peor, arrancándose del ser que fueron. "Probablemente en su pueblo se los recordará como a cachorros de buenas personas", dice Joan Manuel Serrat muy acertadamente. Este doble juego está muy relacionado con el hecho de que el poder miente sin descanso. No puede decir la verdad, está inhabilitado para ello. Todo cuanto proviene de una instancia oficial, todo lo que tiene el sello de una institución relacionada con el poder, es mentira. Las fake news, las noticias falsas, son una expresión redundante: no hay noticia que no sea falsa, ya que siempre incluye un sesgo, una valoración, una ocultación. Te dicen sólo lo que les conviene para que actúes como les conviene a ellos. Y esto nos conduce a esa distinción entre discurso real y discurso aparente. Cada vez que se hace una declaración oficial, una promesa electoral, una proclama desde una alta instancia, se dice una cosa pero se quiere decir otra. Por ejemplo: la Ley de la Restauración de la Naturaleza. No restaura nada. A lo que aspira es a separarnos de la naturaleza para imponernos una perversión de laboratorio creada por ellos. No hay una vuelta a nada. En la palabra Restauración está la mentira. El discurso aparente dice: Restauración, como si se estuviese trabajando para regresar a un estado anterior, ideal, bueno, antes de que llegase la actividad humana, a la que se condena por perjudicial. Pero el discurso real es el contrario: se está intentando que te conviertas en un animal estabulado, sometido al antojo de las grandes corporaciones en materia de alimentación, venenos, control demográfico... Empobrecimiento del lenguaje: empobrecimiento del pensamiento La sintaxis es una cualidad del alma, dice el poeta Paul Valery. Yo sé que hay mucha gente que aquí me objetaría la diferencia entre alma y espíritu, pero hay que tomar en consideración la intención de Valery, y no la nuestra. Él quiso decir que es algo que está más allá de lo tangible, y que por lo tanto, nuestra capacidad de dejarnos permear por un lenguaje rico y lleno de matices es la que a su vez nos permitirá considerar el mundo en el que vivimos de un modo más fino. El poder quiere que pienses en términos de dicotomía: bueno y malo, propio y ajeno, amigos y enemigos... No hay puntos medios, no hay grises. Resulta mucho más fácil dejarse arrastrar por la oleada, no pensar, adquirir el juicio ya hecho por lo que dicen los telediarios. Putin, malo. Trump, malo. Biden, bueno... Lo cierto es que son todos malos, malos en el sentido de que resultan perjudiciales para nosotros, para la gente. Porque todo lo que proviene de ese alto poder, del poder de verdad, actúa contra nosotros. Es muy fácil para ellos pegar el volantazo y convertir a los buenos en malos y viceversa. Todos recordamos como Sadam Huseín pasó de ser bueno a malo en cuestión de días. Fue un tonto útil, evidentemente. Y qué decir de Muammar el Gaddafi. Hoy lo estamos viendo con Putin. Fabrican malos. Enemigos. Y eso es muy rápido de hacer cuando el lenguaje se ha limitado a catalogar todo lo existente como una dicotomía, como un juego de opuestos. Imaginemos que nos eliminarán los nombres referentes a los colores. Sólo nos quedaría una distinción entre claros y oscuros. Y sólo con ese juicio acabaríamos percibiendo el mundo. Un mundo que se iría apagando, en blanco y negro, hacia la penumbra. Pues esto que decimos como ejemplo de los colores es lo que hacen con todos los asuntos. Todos. A o B. Y además ellos te dicen qué es lo que tienes que defender: o A o B.Son tan perversos que usualmente A y B son malos, por cierto. Palabras creadas para el esclavo: términos despectivos El lenguaje, de este modo, es usado por el poder como una de esas máquinas con las que poner los precios en los productos. Una etiquetadora. Porque en eso convierten a los conceptos: en etiquetas. Así que hay que crear etiquetas para emplearlas contra todos aquellos que pongan en duda, aunque sea una mínima duda, los dictados del poder. Así, tenemos que a los que nos negamos a obedecer a la dictadura plandémica nos llaman negacionistas. Un término, por cierto, que proviene de la propaganda ejercida contra todos aquellos que se atreviesen a dudar de que la Segunda Guerra Mundial fue ganada por los buenos. Como si no hubiesen pertenecido todos al mismo bando, como si hubiese habido buenos y malos. Negacionista, por lo tanto, es una etiqueta reutilizada, les da igual. Conspiracionista. Esto proviene me parece de las dudas creadas en torno al asesinato de Kennedy. Todo aquel que no comulgara con la versión pedestre y oficial, delirante, del asesinato de Kennedy, era un conspiracionista. Creo que ahora tienen más: terraplanista, por ejemplo, que emplean contra todo ya. O expresiones como "no crees en la ciencia", otra etiqueta, como si el espíritu que inspira sus crímenes estuviese basado en la ciencia. Así, la persona con poca valentía, o que siente un gregarismo fuerte, evita a toda costa ser etiquetado. Ah, que eres, antivacunas, me han llegado a decir a mí, simplemente por expresar mi rechazo a dejarme ser envenenado. Y ni siquiera hablaba de las denominadas vacunas. Las etiquetas pueden acuñarse sin problema. Y como cuentan con esos medios, la repetición les otorga vigencia. Inoculación de conceptos y propaganda La propaganda la inventó la Iglesia, eso es lo que nos enseñaron en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Información. Pero es anterior. La propaganda es un sistema organizado para mentir a las masas. Cuando el faraón egipcio Ramsés II "empató" con los hititas, ya empleó esa maquinaria. Ramsés II les dijo a los egipcios que había ganado él la batalla. Los hititas les dijeron lo mismo a los suyos. Y ambos pueblos, persuadidos, engañados, creyeron las mentiras de sus gobernantes. Porque ninguno tenía modo de comprobar que la realidad era otra. Esto es muy importante: la propaganda choca contra la realidad. Lo vemos de manera muy sencilla cuando se habla de economía. Todos los gobiernos venden que la cosa va viento en popa. "España va bien", recordamos como un mantra que se repetía aquí a finales de los noventa. O "Ya hay brotes verdes", cuando la estafa de 2008. Ahora no es distinto: la economía está destrozada, el empobrecimiento es generalizado y se va acelerando, pero ellos no dejan de publicar sus logros. No dejan de mentir. ¿Cuándo deja de ser efectiva la propaganda? Cuando el engañado pasa hambre. Cuando le matan a la familia. Cuando sus seres queridos enferman y se van para el cementerio. Cuando es demasiado tarde. Por eso urge desoírlos. No escuchar siquiera las mentiras que se van inventando día a día. La sobreinformación Una noticia está en activo hasta que llega la siguiente. Como no se trata de temas importantes, sino de asuntos creados artificialmente para distraer al personal, da igual el contenido en sí del escándalo. Que si un político robando, como si eso pudiera ser novedad. Que si un desastre natural. Que si un accidente. Que si una indignación con un tema de consumo. La gente tiene una capacidad limitada para enterarse, para asimilar, para deglutir. Y la información ha llegado al punto de ser continua, como en un banquete en el que se te estuviese obligando a tragar continuamente. ¿Cuándo hace la digestión ese comensal? Nunca. ¿Cuándo se entera de algo? Nunca. Por eso digo: la gente más informada que conozco actualmente es la desinformada. Yo he tenido la suerte de entrar en contacto con gente extremadamente sensible y ajena a toda esta basura en los últimos días. Estar con ellos es regresar a los temas importantes: los sentimientos, nuestra verdadera esencia, quiénes somos, cómo nos relacionamos, qué temas nos preocupan y nos ocupan, pero de verdad. Pues os puedo garantizar que después de muchas y muy gratas horas, no recuerdo ni un sólo segundo hablando de temas de telediario. Porque hablábamos de temas reales. Traducción de expresiones: Igualdad: desigualdad ejercida por ley. Migración: Inmigración o emigración. Datos oficiales: mentiras avaladas por el poder. ... (AQUÍ PODEMOS ESTIRARNOS CUANTO QUERAMOS, SERÍA BUENO AMPLIAR LA LISTA) Valoración final La palabra es como una flecha. Es más: la palabra es una flecha. Pero no es lo mismo que la flecha la lance una diosa arquera, en cuyo caso sabremos que se nos clavará con gozo, a que nos la lance un ser malvado y que busca nuestra ruina. La palabra tiene que estar afilada, estilizada, tenemos que tener el carcaj lleno de palabras ricas, suculentas, variadas, preciosas, palabras de todos los calibres, para saber distinguir entre lo que nos ocultan y lo que necesitamos. Saudade, dicen los portugueses, que el otro día estuve en Portugal. Tienen una palabra lenta, paciente, oidora, estos señores de la Raya con los que pasé una mañana magnífica y sin prisas. Tenemos que ir armados con sinónimos, con palabras de belleza, de amor, de comprensión, de libertad. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Hemos empezado hablando de uno de los miembros de la familia Russell, el onceavo duque de Bedford y marques de Tavistock creador del Instituto del mismo nombre…y ahora vamos hablar de otro de sus familiares, el idealizado sobretodo por la izquierda Bertrand Russell, cuyos libros son del dominio publico salvo curiosamente los que iban dirigidos a las clases dirigentes y a los profesores y catedráticos que moldearon las mentes de los jóvenes. Algunas citas de Bertrand Russell de su libro "The Scientific Outlook" (La Perspectiva Científica) editado en 1931: "Las sociedades científicas están todavía en pañales. Con el avance de la psicología y la fisiología se espera que los gobiernos tengan más control del que ya tienen sobre la mentalidad individual, incluso en los países totalitarios. Como Fitche explicó, la educación escolar debería tener el objeto de destruir la voluntad libre, para que los estudiantes, después de dejar el colegio y durante el resto de sus vidas, sean incapaces de pensar o actuar de una manera contraria a la esperada por sus profesores." "Dieta, inyecciones y órdenes se combinarán, desde una edad muy temprana, para producir el tipo de personalidad y creencias que las autoridades consideren deseables, y cualquier crítica grave a los poderes será, de hecho, psicológicamente imposible." "La disciplina progresará más rápidamente cuando esté bajo los auspicios de una dictadura científica... Los psicólogos sociales del futuro tendrán varias clases de alumnos en los que podrán intentar producir, con métodos diferentes, la fuerte convicción de que la nieve es negra. Pronto llegarán a varios resultados. Primero, que la influencia del hogar es obstructiva. Segundo, que no se puede hacer mucho si el adoctrinamiento no empieza antes de los diez años. Tercero, que las directrices a las que se les pone música y son cantadas resultan muy efectivas. Cuarto, que opinar que la nieve sea blanca debe mostrar un gusto mórbido por la excentricidad... El trabajo de los científicos del futuro es perfeccionar esas máximas y calcular cuánto costará hacer que los alumnos crean que la nieve es negra, y cuánto costará convencerlos de que es solamente gris oscura." "Aunque esta ciencia se estudiará con diligencia, será estrictamente confinada a la clase gobernante. Al pueblo no se le permitirá conocer que sus creencias fueron generadas. Cuando este método se haya perfeccionado, y haya habido una generación de control sobre la educación escolar, el gobierno tendrá la capacidad de controlar a sus sometidos firmemente, sin necesidad de ejército o policía." En 1950, Russell recibió el premio Nobel de Literatura "en reconocimiento a su variada e importante narrativa, en la cual defiende los ideales humanitarios y la libertad de pensamiento.” Esto amigos es siempre la doble moral con la que operan estos desgraciados y que impide que la mayoría de la población siquiera sea consciente de que existe un obscenario detrás del escenario como decia Pedro Bustamante. Nos despedimos por hoy diciéndoles sin ambages ni dobles sentidos que no tengan miedo, que amen lo máximo que puedan y que cuiden a sus familias. Chao. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Bienvenidos a un nuevo directo desde Twitter. Esta noche tendremos el gusto de tener con nosotros al escritor y periodista Manuel Valera. Si muchos de vosotros no lo conocéis es precisamente porque lo que cuenta Manuel no hace mucha gracia al poder y por ello es relegado en el mejor de los casos al ostracismo y en el peor a la mas dura de las censuras. El tema que nos propuso Manuel fue el de la manipulación del lenguaje y más concretamente todos estos aspectos: Discurso real frente a discurso aparente del poder. Empobrecimiento del lenguaje encaminado a un empobrecimiento del pensamiento. Palabras creadas para el esclavo. Traducción de sus expresiones. Diccionario para nuevos dummies. Ausencia de matices para encaminar al enfrentamiento. Acuñación de términos despectivos para desprestigiar al que no se somete o duda. Inoculación de conceptos y propaganda. Antes de entrar en todo esto junto al invitado me gustaria recordaros que en la descripción del podcast en Ivoox os dejaremos algunos de los mejores documentales y artículos sobre este tema y toda su relación con el control de la sociedad a través de grupos como el Instituto Tavistok o la ingeniería lingüística. Sobre este ultimo punto me gustaría que vieseis el magnifico documental de la filóloga especializada en lingüística, escritora e investigadora Carme Jiménez Huertas donde nos habla sobre los niveles neurológicos y el lenguaje. Nos explica cómo consiguen que obedezcamos y lo que es más importante nos enseña cómo desprogramarnos. Carme nos cuenta que desde el discurso público, se utilizan los mecanismos del lenguaje para la fijación de creencias, la generación de respuestas emocionales y la manipulación social. ¿Cómo han logrado el nivel actual de obediencia? La Filóloga Jiménez Huertas lo expone en varios puntos empezando por el fenómeno de la disidencia controlada, lo que serian los antiguos flautistas de Hamelin. Otro de los puntos es el llamado primado negativo donde a través de contarte una verdad, entre argumentos dramáticos, terror o de comedia, se genera en la memoria implícita un sentimiento de rechazo hacia esa información tomándola como falsa. Ocurre cuando nos presentan una futura realidad o programación predictiva de una forma surrealista, con emociones negativas asociadas, por lo cual cuando nos toca vivir esa realidad o relacionarnos con ese concepto, lo rechazamos a priori puesto que nuestro inconsciente lo asoció como algo improbable, fantasioso o destructivo. Todo esto sumado a la manipulación informativa y mediática que es donde suele obtener la información la mayoría de la gente y un control de las redes sociales e Internet para que muy poca gente conozca información realmente alternativa hacen que sea muy difícil encontrar la verdad sin manipular. Pongamos el ejemplo de como Google desindexó mi blog hace ya muchos años impidiendo que los navegadores accedan a mostrar resultados de mi blog en sus búsquedas. Hay artículos concretos a los que solo podrás acceder si dispones del enlace completo. Solo es verdad lo que sale en los medios oficiales de información. Esa idea es la que se genera en la población en general al ser bombardeados masivamente con la misma idea desde medios que a priori deberían ser independientes e incluso mostrar perspectivas diferentes. Sin embargo, ante ciertos temas como el cambio climático, la Agenda 2030, la defensa del genero frente al sexo, la violencia machista o muchos otros campos todos los medios al unísono repiten machaconamente las mismas ideas. O nos muestran las mismas noticias, incluso en el mismo orden y forma. Luego tenemos a los llamados fact checkers o verificadores de información cuyo único objetivo es la censura y la promoción de las entrecomillas “verdades oficiales”. Todo esto genera una gran cantidad de desinformación que circula libremente y hace que las personas normales desconfíen mucho más de obtener información fuera del circuito oficial de información. Las redes sociales y los medios de comunicación se dedican a mantener un clima constante de terror lo que hace que la población este bajo control mental y social. El Instituto Tavistock de Relaciones Humanas, en sus siglas TIHR, es una organización británica sin fines de lucro que aplica las ciencias sociales a cuestiones y problemas contemporáneos. Se desarrolló a partir de la Clínica Tavistock, creada por Sir Herbrand Arthur Russell, duque de Bedford y marques de Tavistock que cede un edificio en Londres y desempeñó un papel clave en la psiquiatría del ejército británico. Fue clave en la guerra psicológica durante la época de entreguerras y durante la segunda guerra mundial. Da la casualidad de que Sir Herbrand Arthur Russell fue el onceavo duque de Bedford y familiar del también Sir Bertrand Russell un simpático abuelito que tuvo un importantísimo papel en la educación de múltiples generaciones de profesores y catedráticos del mundo occidental. En un video que tuve el placer de hacer junto a Jorge Guerra titulado “Mundo pasado y mundo futuro” hablamos de como nos la metió doblada el señor Russell. Una de las primeras investigaciones del Instituto Tavistock fueron el trauma en los soldados británicos que habían luchado en la primera guerra mundial. Descubrir dónde está situado el punto mas allá del cual un soldado se quiebra psicológicamente les importaba sobremanera. Recordemos que en esa época estaba de moda el electroshock y las lobotomias tal y cómo les mostré en mis artículos CIENCIA QUE ENVENENA Y AMPUTA CEREBROS I y II. Se estableció formalmente como una entidad separada en septiembre de 1947 tras recibir una importante subvención de la Fundación Rockefeller. Durante las décadas de 1950 y 1960, el TIHR llevó a cabo una serie de proyectos exclusivos en colaboración con importantes empresas, incluidas Unilever, Ahmedabad Manufacturing, Calico Printing Co., Royal Dutch Shell, Bayer y Glacier Metals. Todas ellas importantísimas multinacionales a nivel mundial pero tenemos que creer que el susodicho instituto es una organización sin animo de lucro. Desde la entrada que hay en wikipedia se burlan sobre como los teóricos de la conspiración hablan sobre este instituto, por ejemplo sobre la supuesta teoría conspirativa de “la creación de la música rock y las drogas para rebelarse contra el status quo, socavando y finalmente destruyendo la unidad familiar» Pero si analizamos el libro "La perspectiva Científica" de "sir" Bertrand Russell comprenderemos que en 1931 ya se sabia por donde se iba a desenvolver la sociedad impulsada por esta dictadura científico satánica. Podemos leer en mi articulo MIRANDO HACIA ATRÁS VI: ANTICIPÁNDONOS A HG WELLS CUARTA PARTE: El Proyecto Radio fue una investigación social financiada por la Fundación Rockefeller para estudiar los efectos de los medios de comunicación en la sociedad. En 1937, la Fundación Rockefeller comenzó a financiar la investigación para encontrar los efectos de las nuevas formas de los medios de comunicación en la sociedad, en especial la radio. En 1938 Theodor Adorno filósofo alemán de origen judío cruza el Atlántico para instalarse en Nueva York, donde tenía su sede el Instituto de Investigación Social, una especie de Instituto Tavistock pero creado por la universidad de Frankfurt, y ayuda a crear el rock and roll a principios de la década de 1950. Fue el verdadero compositor de algunas canciones de los Beatles por ejemplo. Esto lo escribía Wells en 1940: “Es fácil convertir a un joven desempleado en un fascista o un gángster, pero es difícil devolverlo a cualquier tarea social decente. Además, el propio liderazgo del Campeón se debió en gran medida a su calidad conspirativa y aventurera. Él mismo no es apto para un trabajo creativo. Se encuentra un luchador a la cabeza de una manada de lucha.» «En todas partes del mundo, en diversas circunstancias locales, vemos gobiernos preocupados principalmente por este problema supremo de qué hacer con estos adultos jóvenes que no pueden trabajar en las condiciones actuales. Tenemos que darnos cuenta de eso y tenerlo constantemente presente. Está allí en todos los países.» «¿Cómo vamos a usar o apagar este excedente de energía humana? Los jóvenes son el núcleo vivo de nuestra especie. La generación de menos de dieciséis o diecisiete años aún no ha comenzado a causar problemas, y después de los cuarenta, el reflujo de la vitalidad hace que los hombres acepten la suerte que les corresponde.« En la página 133 de “El misterio del club de los 27: La manipulación de la industria musical” nos cuentan cómo el señor Adorno era el mago que evolucionó a los Beatles de cucarachas a mariposas. Cuando Michael Jackson intentó adquirir los derechos de las canciones de los Beatles descubrió que éstas pertenecían a los herederos del señor Adorno. Realmente nada es lo que parece y desde luego no deberían fiarse de nada que vds no puedan investigar por su propia cuenta. Si aparece como por ensalmo por todas las cadenas de televisión a la vez habría que dar un paso atrás y empezar a sospechar de que nos quieren vender algo. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Cuando surgió el COVID estaba claro que algo muy gordo y muy oscuro estaban tramando. Todo un nuevo lenguaje surgió como de la nada: Asintomáticos, PCR, pandemia, Coronavirus, desescalada, mascarilla, nueva normalidad, confinamiento, Coronavirus, COVID-19 y SARS-CoV-2, Estado de alarma, distanciamiento social, gel hidroalcohólico y cuarentena. Desde buscadores de la verdad empleamos un lenguaje totalmente diferente que expresaba la realidad de lo que nos rodeaba: Tragipandemia Dícese de la pandemia creada exprofeso para maximizar el miedo y minimizar el problema epidémico real ya que se trata de dramatizar un evento epidemiólogico convencional Balconazi Dícese de las personas que amparadas en el anónimato que les proporcionaba espiar desde su balcón denunciaban a la policía a la gente que estaba en la calle durante el confinamiento por el coronavirus. Telecreyente Persona o grupo de personas que creen a pies juntillas cualquier información que aparezca por televisión sin contrastarla ni dudar lo más mínimo. Oficialnoico Dícese de la persona o grupo de personas que se creen sin rechistar cualquier idea que provenga de los llamados sectores oficiales, el Estado, el Gobierno, sus instituciones académicas o de estamentos u organizaciones internacionales como la ONU, el Banco mundial, el FMI u otras similares. Por otra parte estas personas reniegan de cualquier otra información que provenga de medios no oficiales ya sean medios de comunicación alternativos, investigadores independientes o del propio sentido común. Covidiano Un covidiano es una persona que se ha creído todo lo que desde los mass media, el gobierno y las instituciones le han contado sobre la Tragipandemia. Por más ridículas que sean las exigencias a cumplir un buen covidiano no se formulara ninguna pregunta ni mostrará recelo a la hora de cumplirlas. El nombre de covidiano proviene del nombre de la pandemia COVID19. Un covidiano es un buen telecreyente y se informa por TV de todas las novedades sobre la pandemia. Coronatimo La pandemia de coronavirus SarsCov2 se instaló sin apenas oposición en el mundo occidental pero hubo una parte de la población que no se la creyo, que pensaron que habían sido engañados o timados. Por ello el coronavirus pasó a denominarse coronatimo dentro lo que se llamó la tragipandemia o la plandemia Bozalistán Dícese del antiguo país llamado España que un buen día amaneció lleno de mascarillas por culpa de una Tragipandemia. Estas mascarillas eran conocidas como bozales, de ahí el término bozalistán. Covidganda Al uso abusivo de la propaganda dentro de la campaña de terror informativo de la Tragipandemia del covid19. Coronacircus La Tragipandemia terminó convirtiéndose en una especie de circo donde cada día había alguna medida para prevenir la plandemia más absurda que la anterior. Mientras algunas personas llamaban al pensamiento que desmontaba el coronatimo como magufo y conspiranoico otras tildaban a esas personas como covidianos Satanicario Dícese de la mezcla de sanitario, satanista y sicario. Se trataría de una clase de sanitarios que ya existía antes de la Tragipandemia pero que escondidos en sus quehaceres pasaban desaparecidos ya que desde su posición podían asesinar a un paciente sin tener ningún problema. Un satanicario aprueba y acepta cualquier norma estúpida que provenga de los que han planificado la Tragipandemia que estamos sufriendo desde finales del 2019. PCR Desde Buscadores de la verdad dijimos desde un principio que la técnica de biología molecular PCR Polymerase Chain Reaction ("Reacción en Cadena de la Polimerasa") era un fraude para detectar carga viral o detectar virus. Por ello nosotros hablamos de esta técnica como Kit de caldo para paella porque para nosotros las siglas significan Paella Caldo Recipe. Asimismo los gaditanos hablan de que el PCR es Puchero, Croquetas y Ropa vieja. En Galicia hablan de Pulpo, Calamares y Raxo. Covinazi Cuando un covidiano se vuelve completamente irracional se convierte en un covinazi que es la contracción de nazi y covidiano. Un covinazi es capaz de denunciar a su propia familia en caso de resultar contagiado tras hacerse un test PCR Bozadicción Trauma que mantendrán muchas personas y que les permitirá seguir llevando máscarillas aunque no sean obligatorias. Es una adicción sobretodo de los covidianos que mantienen la Tragipandemia operativa Asintomágico Dícese de las personas sanas que gracias a los test PCR pasan a ser supuestos enfermos de Covid y mantienen en funcionamiento la Tragipandemia. Covimonguer Dícese de la contracción entre covidiano y mongolo. Se trataría de definir a una clase de seres humanos que gracias a ser un telecreyente ha caído en un estado catatónico donde no saben regirse sin seguir las directrices que provienen del Estado en referencia a la Tragipandemia Vacuñao Se llama así a las personas que sin tener ningún tipo de conocimiento acerca de las vacunas, del sistema inmunológico o de medicina nos arengan a vacunarnos a los que nos sentimos en la obligación de hacer uso del sentido común y no denominar vacuna a un tratamiento genético. Se puede aplicar este término para describir a más de un experto con título académico que dice defender la ciencia pero que termina bloqueandote en las redes si le muestras lo que dice la ciencia de verdad y que evidencia que su conocimiento no pasa a ser mejor que el de un cuñado cualquiera. Repentinitis Dícese de las muertes que empezaron a darse de manera repentina tras la vacunación masiva que se produjo durante la Tragipandemia Nazipass Otra forma de llamar al pase nazitario es nazipass de la contracción entre pasaporte y nazi. “En la Alemania nazi se implementó el Gesundheitspass o "pase de salud" que en realidad era un pase para comprobar la pureza de la sangre aria” “Si introducimos esa palabra en la actualidad nos llevará a las páginas oficiales del gobierno austriaco y alemán para registrarnos y conseguir estos nuevos pases verdes” La segregación entre vacunados (puros según la oficialidad actual) y no vacunados (impuros) es exactamente lo mismo que pasó en esos guetos donde se apartaba a los no puros. Este pasaporte sanitario se mantiene en pie gracias a la gente que se ha vuelto covinazi Proctoculo Palabra derivada de protocolo y que significa que un protocolo médico o de otro tipo se aplica mal adrede o viene ya diseñado para que su aplicación cause daños de algún tipo. Sería como realizar algo "como el culo". ………………………………………………………………………………………. El poder de la palabra El poder de la palabra es evidente, porque es a través del lenguaje como se sustancia el pensamiento. Manipular el lenguaje es manipular el pensamiento, la percepción y también el sentimiento de la gente. Por eso, la cara oscura del poder de la palabra es la palabra en manos del poder. Ahí está la cita de que las guerras no comienzan cuando se da el primer tiro, sino cuando los medios de comunicación pasan a emplear una semántica bélica. Los medios de comunicación, que jamás me cansaré de decir que son la correa de transmisión del poder, no están comprados por el poder, sino que pertenecen a él. Y recordamos que su misión es la de inocular tres elementos en la gente: 1. Miedo. 2. Odio. 3. Mentira. Además de elegir lo que es noticia y lo que no lo es, un elemento primordial para ellos, la manipulación, en efecto, está en la palabra. George Orwell nos lo dejó bien claro, y dedicó una serie de ensayos magníficos sobre el asunto. Porque no ha cambiado nada en este sentido nunca. Ahora tienen más medios, pero la estrategia es la misma. César, Napoleón o Stalin seguramente soñaron húmedamente con tener a su disposición los medios de persuasión de los que el poder dispone hoy en día. Paradójicamente, cuanto más poderosos se vuelven esos medios, más fácil es salir de su alcance. Parece mentira, pero es así. Nosotros lo estamos comprobando desde hace al menos cuatro años. En mi caso, por motivos laborales, más allá incluso. Yo me entero de lo que mantiene preocupada y distraída a la gente porque cuando voy al bar me sacan temas de conversación que desconozco por completo. Me voy enterando de las bobadas con las que los entretienen a posteriori, cuando ya se prepara la siguiente dosis de droga informativa. Discurso real y discurso aparente Hace dos o tres décadas, todavía se discutía si existe un poder que gobierne el mundo o no. Hoy esta discusión ya ha sido superada por muchos de nosotros, que no contamos con la sospecha, sino con la certeza de que esto es así. Lo hemos visto en las grandes operaciones de los de arriba contra la población: la plandemia, las crisis económicas, las guerras... Actúan de un modo coordinado, a una misma voz, y los políticos, que son empleados de los poderosos, de los realmente poderosos, se limitan a obedecer y a ejecutar las órdenes criminales que avasallan a la gente. Pues bien, si partimos de esta premisa, habrá que admitir que, salvo los de arriba del todo, no voy a entrar en la identidad de los mismos porque esa línea de debate nos ocuparía todo el programa y nos sacaría del tema de hoy, nadie tiene poder. Nadie. Ni los presidentes, ni los ministros, ni los ejecutivos, ni los directores de empresa, ni los funcionarios del ayuntamiento, ni tu jefe, ni tu presidente de escalera. Nadie tiene al poder. El poder es el que te tiene a ti. El poder te da una sensación de poder, valga la redundancia, pero eres tú la posesión de ese monstruo. Y el poder produce en las personas dos efectos que, dependiendo de la honradez y la bondad de cada cual, tardan más o menos en manifestarse: 1. Manía persecutoria. Todos los que se sienten persuadidos de tener poder piensan que el mundo conspira para quitarlos del puesto que ocupan. 2. Esquizofrenia. Doble personalidad. Los desdobla. Son capaces de lo peor, arrancándose del ser que fueron. "Probablemente en su pueblo se los recordará como a cachorros de buenas personas", dice Joan Manuel Serrat muy acertadamente. Este doble juego está muy relacionado con el hecho de que el poder miente sin descanso. No puede decir la verdad, está inhabilitado para ello. Todo cuanto proviene de una instancia oficial, todo lo que tiene el sello de una institución relacionada con el poder, es mentira. Las fake news, las noticias falsas, son una expresión redundante: no hay noticia que no sea falsa, ya que siempre incluye un sesgo, una valoración, una ocultación. Te dicen sólo lo que les conviene para que actúes como les conviene a ellos. Y esto nos conduce a esa distinción entre discurso real y discurso aparente. Cada vez que se hace una declaración oficial, una promesa electoral, una proclama desde una alta instancia, se dice una cosa pero se quiere decir otra. Por ejemplo: la Ley de la Restauración de la Naturaleza. No restaura nada. A lo que aspira es a separarnos de la naturaleza para imponernos una perversión de laboratorio creada por ellos. No hay una vuelta a nada. En la palabra Restauración está la mentira. El discurso aparente dice: Restauración, como si se estuviese trabajando para regresar a un estado anterior, ideal, bueno, antes de que llegase la actividad humana, a la que se condena por perjudicial. Pero el discurso real es el contrario: se está intentando que te conviertas en un animal estabulado, sometido al antojo de las grandes corporaciones en materia de alimentación, venenos, control demográfico... Empobrecimiento del lenguaje: empobrecimiento del pensamiento La sintaxis es una cualidad del alma, dice el poeta Paul Valery. Yo sé que hay mucha gente que aquí me objetaría la diferencia entre alma y espíritu, pero hay que tomar en consideración la intención de Valery, y no la nuestra. Él quiso decir que es algo que está más allá de lo tangible, y que por lo tanto, nuestra capacidad de dejarnos permear por un lenguaje rico y lleno de matices es la que a su vez nos permitirá considerar el mundo en el que vivimos de un modo más fino. El poder quiere que pienses en términos de dicotomía: bueno y malo, propio y ajeno, amigos y enemigos... No hay puntos medios, no hay grises. Resulta mucho más fácil dejarse arrastrar por la oleada, no pensar, adquirir el juicio ya hecho por lo que dicen los telediarios. Putin, malo. Trump, malo. Biden, bueno... Lo cierto es que son todos malos, malos en el sentido de que resultan perjudiciales para nosotros, para la gente. Porque todo lo que proviene de ese alto poder, del poder de verdad, actúa contra nosotros. Es muy fácil para ellos pegar el volantazo y convertir a los buenos en malos y viceversa. Todos recordamos como Sadam Huseín pasó de ser bueno a malo en cuestión de días. Fue un tonto útil, evidentemente. Y qué decir de Muammar el Gaddafi. Hoy lo estamos viendo con Putin. Fabrican malos. Enemigos. Y eso es muy rápido de hacer cuando el lenguaje se ha limitado a catalogar todo lo existente como una dicotomía, como un juego de opuestos. Imaginemos que nos eliminarán los nombres referentes a los colores. Sólo nos quedaría una distinción entre claros y oscuros. Y sólo con ese juicio acabaríamos percibiendo el mundo. Un mundo que se iría apagando, en blanco y negro, hacia la penumbra. Pues esto que decimos como ejemplo de los colores es lo que hacen con todos los asuntos. Todos. A o B. Y además ellos te dicen qué es lo que tienes que defender: o A o B.Son tan perversos que usualmente A y B son malos, por cierto. Palabras creadas para el esclavo: términos despectivos El lenguaje, de este modo, es usado por el poder como una de esas máquinas con las que poner los precios en los productos. Una etiquetadora. Porque en eso convierten a los conceptos: en etiquetas. Así que hay que crear etiquetas para emplearlas contra todos aquellos que pongan en duda, aunque sea una mínima duda, los dictados del poder. Así, tenemos que a los que nos negamos a obedecer a la dictadura plandémica nos llaman negacionistas. Un término, por cierto, que proviene de la propaganda ejercida contra todos aquellos que se atreviesen a dudar de que la Segunda Guerra Mundial fue ganada por los buenos. Como si no hubiesen pertenecido todos al mismo bando, como si hubiese habido buenos y malos. Negacionista, por lo tanto, es una etiqueta reutilizada, les da igual. Conspiracionista. Esto proviene me parece de las dudas creadas en torno al asesinato de Kennedy. Todo aquel que no comulgara con la versión pedestre y oficial, delirante, del asesinato de Kennedy, era un conspiracionista. Creo que ahora tienen más: terraplanista, por ejemplo, que emplean contra todo ya. O expresiones como "no crees en la ciencia", otra etiqueta, como si el espíritu que inspira sus crímenes estuviese basado en la ciencia. Así, la persona con poca valentía, o que siente un gregarismo fuerte, evita a toda costa ser etiquetado. Ah, que eres, antivacunas, me han llegado a decir a mí, simplemente por expresar mi rechazo a dejarme ser envenenado. Y ni siquiera hablaba de las denominadas vacunas. Las etiquetas pueden acuñarse sin problema. Y como cuentan con esos medios, la repetición les otorga vigencia. Inoculación de conceptos y propaganda La propaganda la inventó la Iglesia, eso es lo que nos enseñaron en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Información. Pero es anterior. La propaganda es un sistema organizado para mentir a las masas. Cuando el faraón egipcio Ramsés II "empató" con los hititas, ya empleó esa maquinaria. Ramsés II les dijo a los egipcios que había ganado él la batalla. Los hititas les dijeron lo mismo a los suyos. Y ambos pueblos, persuadidos, engañados, creyeron las mentiras de sus gobernantes. Porque ninguno tenía modo de comprobar que la realidad era otra. Esto es muy importante: la propaganda choca contra la realidad. Lo vemos de manera muy sencilla cuando se habla de economía. Todos los gobiernos venden que la cosa va viento en popa. "España va bien", recordamos como un mantra que se repetía aquí a finales de los noventa. O "Ya hay brotes verdes", cuando la estafa de 2008. Ahora no es distinto: la economía está destrozada, el empobrecimiento es generalizado y se va acelerando, pero ellos no dejan de publicar sus logros. No dejan de mentir. ¿Cuándo deja de ser efectiva la propaganda? Cuando el engañado pasa hambre. Cuando le matan a la familia. Cuando sus seres queridos enferman y se van para el cementerio. Cuando es demasiado tarde. Por eso urge desoírlos. No escuchar siquiera las mentiras que se van inventando día a día. La sobreinformación Una noticia está en activo hasta que llega la siguiente. Como no se trata de temas importantes, sino de asuntos creados artificialmente para distraer al personal, da igual el contenido en sí del escándalo. Que si un político robando, como si eso pudiera ser novedad. Que si un desastre natural. Que si un accidente. Que si una indignación con un tema de consumo. La gente tiene una capacidad limitada para enterarse, para asimilar, para deglutir. Y la información ha llegado al punto de ser continua, como en un banquete en el que se te estuviese obligando a tragar continuamente. ¿Cuándo hace la digestión ese comensal? Nunca. ¿Cuándo se entera de algo? Nunca. Por eso digo: la gente más informada que conozco actualmente es la desinformada. Yo he tenido la suerte de entrar en contacto con gente extremadamente sensible y ajena a toda esta basura en los últimos días. Estar con ellos es regresar a los temas importantes: los sentimientos, nuestra verdadera esencia, quiénes somos, cómo nos relacionamos, qué temas nos preocupan y nos ocupan, pero de verdad. Pues os puedo garantizar que después de muchas y muy gratas horas, no recuerdo ni un sólo segundo hablando de temas de telediario. Porque hablábamos de temas reales. Traducción de expresiones: Igualdad: desigualdad ejercida por ley. Migración: Inmigración o emigración. Datos oficiales: mentiras avaladas por el poder. ... (AQUÍ PODEMOS ESTIRARNOS CUANTO QUERAMOS, SERÍA BUENO AMPLIAR LA LISTA) Valoración final La palabra es como una flecha. Es más: la palabra es una flecha. Pero no es lo mismo que la flecha la lance una diosa arquera, en cuyo caso sabremos que se nos clavará con gozo, a que nos la lance un ser malvado y que busca nuestra ruina. La palabra tiene que estar afilada, estilizada, tenemos que tener el carcaj lleno de palabras ricas, suculentas, variadas, preciosas, palabras de todos los calibres, para saber distinguir entre lo que nos ocultan y lo que necesitamos. Saudade, dicen los portugueses, que el otro día estuve en Portugal. Tienen una palabra lenta, paciente, oidora, estos señores de la Raya con los que pasé una mañana magnífica y sin prisas. Tenemos que ir armados con sinónimos, con palabras de belleza, de amor, de comprensión, de libertad. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Hemos empezado hablando de uno de los miembros de la familia Russell, el onceavo duque de Bedford y marques de Tavistock creador del Instituto del mismo nombre…y ahora vamos hablar de otro de sus familiares, el idealizado sobretodo por la izquierda Bertrand Russell, cuyos libros son del dominio publico salvo curiosamente los que iban dirigidos a las clases dirigentes y a los profesores y catedráticos que moldearon las mentes de los jóvenes. Algunas citas de Bertrand Russell de su libro "The Scientific Outlook" (La Perspectiva Científica) editado en 1931: "Las sociedades científicas están todavía en pañales. Con el avance de la psicología y la fisiología se espera que los gobiernos tengan más control del que ya tienen sobre la mentalidad individual, incluso en los países totalitarios. Como Fitche explicó, la educación escolar debería tener el objeto de destruir la voluntad libre, para que los estudiantes, después de dejar el colegio y durante el resto de sus vidas, sean incapaces de pensar o actuar de una manera contraria a la esperada por sus profesores." "Dieta, inyecciones y órdenes se combinarán, desde una edad muy temprana, para producir el tipo de personalidad y creencias que las autoridades consideren deseables, y cualquier crítica grave a los poderes será, de hecho, psicológicamente imposible." "La disciplina progresará más rápidamente cuando esté bajo los auspicios de una dictadura científica... Los psicólogos sociales del futuro tendrán varias clases de alumnos en los que podrán intentar producir, con métodos diferentes, la fuerte convicción de que la nieve es negra. Pronto llegarán a varios resultados. Primero, que la influencia del hogar es obstructiva. Segundo, que no se puede hacer mucho si el adoctrinamiento no empieza antes de los diez años. Tercero, que las directrices a las que se les pone música y son cantadas resultan muy efectivas. Cuarto, que opinar que la nieve sea blanca debe mostrar un gusto mórbido por la excentricidad... El trabajo de los científicos del futuro es perfeccionar esas máximas y calcular cuánto costará hacer que los alumnos crean que la nieve es negra, y cuánto costará convencerlos de que es solamente gris oscura." "Aunque esta ciencia se estudiará con diligencia, será estrictamente confinada a la clase gobernante. Al pueblo no se le permitirá conocer que sus creencias fueron generadas. Cuando este método se haya perfeccionado, y haya habido una generación de control sobre la educación escolar, el gobierno tendrá la capacidad de controlar a sus sometidos firmemente, sin necesidad de ejército o policía." En 1950, Russell recibió el premio Nobel de Literatura "en reconocimiento a su variada e importante narrativa, en la cual defiende los ideales humanitarios y la libertad de pensamiento.” Esto amigos es siempre la doble moral con la que operan estos desgraciados y que impide que la mayoría de la población siquiera sea consciente de que existe un obscenario detrás del escenario como decia Pedro Bustamante. Nos despedimos por hoy diciéndoles sin ambages ni dobles sentidos que no tengan miedo, que amen lo máximo que puedan y que cuiden a sus familias. Chao. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Today Laura and Kevin talk to Colin Gounden the CEO and co-founder of VIA about privacy and energy. We discuss why data privacy matters in energy, if the average person really cares about privacy, compensating renters for sharing in energy conservation, how EV owners think about privacy,  which countries are the most (and least) advanced in data privacy, the 2014 class action lawsuit against Honda, Toyota, VW and GM about data collection in cars, why cars are even our collecting data and whether smart meters are worth "Big Brother" watching us. We also discuss a federal privacy law, what you can infer about someone based on their energy usage, the Justice40 initiative, and George Clooney. Colin Gounden is CEO and co-founder of VIA. Colin recruited five of the top 20 global utilities and the U.S. Department of Defense as co-developers and now major users of VIA's Trusted Analytics Chain™ (TAC™), a data privacy-enhancing blockchain-based platform. With seven patents issued and nine pending, TAC™ is the bridge that securely connects infrastructure data, distributed across many locations, to AI solutions. Previously, Colin was the first investor and board director of five MIT and Harvard spinouts, focused on energy and deep science technologies. Two of these spinouts became profitable in their first year of operations and three of them are now valued at more than $400M each. In 2009, he sold Grail Research, where he was founder and CEO. Under Colin's leadership, Grail Research grew from its first employee to more than 300 full-time employees in three years. In the 2000s, Colin was a partner and elected board director at a top five global strategy consulting and private equity investment firm with $2Bn in assets under management.

On this episode, Nate is joined by co-founder of GMO Financial Holdings, Jeremy Grantham, to discuss how finance, human population, ecology, and pollution interact to shape current trends and what they could tell us about the future. Mr. Grantham unpacks why the expectations of perpetual growth - in the economy, standards of living, and finance - are not so likely and that when looking at the system holistically we should expect large paradigm shifts in the coming decades. What can the pattern of super (stock market) bubbles over the last century tell us about the larger resource bubble we find ourselves in? How will rapidly changing population demographics and fertility rates interact with the other global crises we face? How might endocrine disrupting chemicals impact these other trends? Where should investors be focusing energy and resources towards to make the largest and most positive impact on human and planetary futures?  About Jeremy Grantham Jeremy Grantham co-founded GMO in 1977 and is a member of GMO's Asset Allocation team, serving as the firm's long-term investment strategist.

How can we tell if the sedimentary record is good enough to make solid inferences about the geological past? After all, it can be difficult, or even impossible, to infer what is missing, or indeed whether anything is missing at all. As he explains in the podcast, Bruce Levell tackles this question by combining fieldwork with systematic analysis based on what we know about contemporary deposition and erosion. Armed with an understanding of preservational bias, he questions the confidence with which some widely held interpretations of the sedimentary record have been made. For example, by analyzing sequences of glacially-deposited rocks in southwest Scotland, he has shown with others that, contrary to the “Hard Snowball Earth” hypothesis, parts of the Earth probably experienced a persistently active hydrological cycle and were not simply fully-frozen, at least during the earlier of the two postulated snowball glaciations. Bruce Levell is a Visiting professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Oxford. Previously, he was Chief Scientist for Geology at Royal Dutch Shell.

In this episode, Charles ‘Chad' Holliday, former Chairman of Royal Dutch Shell, discusses the seven hardest to abate energy sectors. He shares his insights on the challenges these sectors face and potential solutions to achieve a net-zero carbon future.  Chad starts by talking about the seven hardest-to-abate energy sectors, which include heavy-duty transport, aviation, shipping, cement, steel, chemicals, and long-distance heating and cooling. He explains that these sectors pose a significant challenge due to their heavy reliance on fossil fuels and limited alternatives.  He highlights the need for collaboration between governments, industries, and investors to facilitate the transition to a low-carbon economy. Clear targets and policies must be set to encourage innovation and investment in clean energy technologies.  The discussion then moves on to the role of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) in reducing emissions from these sectors. Chad explains that while CCUS has great potential, it is still in the early stages of development, and more research and investment are needed to make it a viable solution.  The former Chairman of Royal Dutch Shell also touches on the success of a global carbon price in other countries to incentivize the shift towards a low-carbon economy. Carbon prices create fair competition among businesses and encourage investment in clean energy technologies.  In conclusion, the speaker underscores the importance of collaboration and innovation in driving the transition to a net-zero carbon future. Despite the significant challenges posed by the hardest-to-abate sectors, a combination of policy, technology, and investment can overcome them.  Links:   https://hollidayresources.com/  https://missionpossiblepartnership.org/ 

"The stone age did not end because the world ran out of stones."  -Royal Dutch/Shell employee Don Huberts, 1999   I was arguing with a man today who told me that maybe we'd run out of oil if we don't defy the environmentalists and build nuclear.  To be honest, I'm skeptical.  I don't think you CAN run out.  I don't think that's how raw materials work.   He said, "But it doesn't hurt to have a plan B"   Could it take a million years? How many tons of, say, oil and gas are created within the Earth each year?   But let's think about his "doesn't hurt to have a plan B"   What if some Earl back in 1100 had said, "What if the sun burns out?  What if next year all the fish go extinct?"  Whatever.  "Never hurts to have a plan B."  He should have been thinking about the black death or syphilis or crop rotation or the likeliest of the next hundred intra-European wars.    There are problems to be solved in their own time.   "Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own."  -Matthew 6:34

Welcome to an episode with one of Silicon Valley's most renowned business advisors and coaches, Tom Eddington. “There's always a challenge, and there's always an opportunity.” - Tom Eddington In this episode with Tom, we discussed how the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a multitude of issues today – not only for individuals but also for most organizations. One of the biggest problems that every organization has faced because of COVID is retaining employees. Over the last couple of years, we've seen the mass resignation, and it's been a challenge across all industries to attract and retain talent.  Organizations adapted to a virtual workforce, and people have spent the last two years working remotely; the idea of moving back to a physical location has required a lot of reconsideration. Some companies exhibited higher productivity rates with a reduced workforce during that time. They delivered more financial results but took a tremendous toll as leadership teams are extremely stressed and exhausted. The long-term effects of COVID continue, impacting individuals and organizations. COVID has delivered a message to the world – a warning sign. COVID is a knock-on effect of climate change, as opposed to being an epidemic. Climate change is by far the biggest issue we face. As we destroy the ecosystem, we lose biodiversity. This results in bacterial infections and viral infections, which become pandemics such as COVID. We are seeing the impact of climate change, and we are at the most critical decade in human history where we need to do something fundamentally different.  “Business talks about how we become climate-conscious from today, but I've never heard a business leader talk about what we are going to do about what's already out there.” - Michael Tom Eddington works with some of the most influential CEOs and non-profit leaders, advising them on everything from global mergers and organizational change to conscious leadership and work/life integration. He understands the pressures business leaders face. Having spent the last three decades as a consultant, educator, entrepreneur, and strategic advisor, he has dedicated his life to studying and teaching board, leadership, and organization effectiveness – focusing on how they grow, achieve, and sustain effectiveness while remaining stewards for their stakeholders. Tom has lived, worked, and studied on six continents, working with leaders across all industry sectors and organization stages of development. His work as a student, mentor, coach, and advisor focuses on conscious leadership. His motto: Take care of matters within yourself to make the most possible impact in the outside world. Tom has sought out opportunities to teach and work in the private, public, academic, and non-profit sectors working with industry leaders and most-admired organizations, including HP, W.L. Gore, MBNA Corporation, Royal Dutch/Shell, and Taproot Foundation. He assists organizations in fostering leadership on all levels. Enjoying our podcast?

Welcome to Strategy Skills episode 250, an episode with one of Silicon Valley's most renowned business advisors and coaches, Tom Eddington. “There's always a challenge, and there's always an opportunity.” - Tom Eddington In this episode with Tom, we discussed how the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a multitude of issues today – not only for individuals but also for most organizations. One of the biggest problems that every organization has faced because of COVID is retaining employees. Over the last couple of years, we've seen the mass resignation, and it's been a challenge across all industries to attract and retain talent.  Organizations adapted to a virtual workforce, and people have spent the last two years working remotely; the idea of moving back to a physical location has required a lot of reconsideration. Some companies exhibited higher productivity rates with a reduced workforce during that time. They delivered more financial results but took a tremendous toll as leadership teams are extremely stressed and exhausted. The long-term effects of COVID continue, impacting individuals and organizations. COVID has delivered a message to the world – a warning sign. COVID is a knock-on effect of climate change, as opposed to being an epidemic. Climate change is by far the biggest issue we face. As we destroy the ecosystem, we lose biodiversity. This results in bacterial infections and viral infections, which become pandemics such as COVID. We are seeing the impact of climate change, and we are at the most critical decade in human history where we need to do something fundamentally different.  “Business talks about how we become climate-conscious from today, but I've never heard a business leader talk about what we are going to do about what's already out there.” - Michael Tom Eddington works with some of the most influential CEOs and non-profit leaders, advising them on everything from global mergers and organizational change to conscious leadership and work/life integration. He understands the pressures business leaders face. Having spent the last three decades as a consultant, educator, entrepreneur, and strategic advisor, he has dedicated his life to studying and teaching board, leadership, and organization effectiveness – focusing on how they grow, achieve, and sustain effectiveness while remaining stewards for their stakeholders. Tom has lived, worked, and studied on six continents, working with leaders across all industry sectors and organization stages of development. His work as a student, mentor, coach, and advisor focuses on conscious leadership. His motto: Take care of matters within yourself to make the most possible impact in the outside world. Tom has sought out opportunities to teach and work in the private, public, academic, and non-profit sectors working with industry leaders and most-admired organizations, including HP, W.L. Gore, MBNA Corporation, Royal Dutch/Shell, and Taproot Foundation. He assists organizations in fostering leadership on all levels. Enjoying our podcast?

In the past decade, the EPA has received over 98,000 reports of harm and over 2500 reports of pet deaths connected to the Seresto brand of pesticide-containing flea collars. But the EPA has never issued any warnings or recalls of these collars. Also, the 2022 Goldman Environmental Prize recipient for Africa is Chima Williams, an environmental lawyer who worked with two communities to hold Royal Dutch Shell accountable for disastrous oil spills in Nigeria. We talk about why Chima and his colleagues brought the case all the way to the Hague in the Netherlands to pursue justice. And in the coming weeks we'll feature more stories of this year's intrepid Goldman Prize winners.

Shell has announced a shock jump in its profits - nearly triple what it was last year, which has sparked calls for a windfall tax on oil and gas giants to help families struggling with the cost-of-living squeeze.The Standard reports on Thursday how Royal Dutch Shell published underlying profits of $9.1 billion (£7.2 billion) for the first financial quarter of this year.The biggest shock is the size of the profits, which are up 43 per cent thanks to soaring oil and gas prices.Now, there are calls for a one-off tax on the likes of BP and Shell, suggesting a windfall payment could bring in £9 billion for the Treasury's covid-ravaged coffers and help households .It comes after BP announced another huge earnings jump to $6.2 billion.Back in February, both BP and Shell were among multinational companies exiting the Russian market.But is there a moral argument that some corporations could still be war profiteering as a knock-on effect of the invasion of Ukraine?It comes as the Bank of England raises interest rates and warns of a recession.To examine today's developments, by the Evening Standard's City Editor, Oscar Williams-Grut.

Happy New Year, Awesome People! Welcome to 2022! The turning of the year provides the opportunity to stop, see where we are, remember the lessons of where we've come from, and determine our intentions and goals for the future. In the first AWESome EarthKind episode over a year ago, we interviewed Denis Hayes, the original organizer of Earth Day who then led the movement that made Earth Day the most widely celebrated secular holiday in the world, involving over 1 Billion human beings. In that interview, Denis spoke about how there is Always Hope. He recounts several turning points in history where the future was dark and bleak – and yet, despite the odds, people held onto hope and snatched victory out of the jaws of impending defeat. While today there is much to be rightly concerned about – there are also brilliant starbursts of light that ignite hope and show us a path forward. Here are some excerpts from the Good News Network (https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/) and various other sources: Despite a few national governments continuing to keep their coal and oil projects afloat, market demand and private entrepreneurship is driving what can only be described as a revolution in renewable energy. These latest achievements were basically unbelievable when global climate change was first being discussed as a serious threat. But today, each successive development of renewable energy generation, clean heating & cooling, and electric cars, makes new achievements cheaper and easier to scale. Solar for the Developing World A half-million people living in 3 of the Northern Congo cities are going to be supplied with reliable renewable energy by a trio of United Kingdom, French, and Spanish solar power companies. Citizens from that region suffer from the lowest rates of reliable electricity in the world. The solar power plants with battery storage will now resolve this problem. In West Africa, 2 Senegalese cities will find 60MW of solar power available to them in the coming months as a variety of institutions offer government financing for sustainable energy. Senegal is a heavy net energy-importer, placing enormous financial burdens on people for the importatino of coal and oil. In Nigeria, one of Africa's largest economies, the Solar Power Naija program will equip 500,000 homes with solar panels, generating electricity for 25 million Nigerians. Solar on Demand – the least expensive energy source on the planet The United States National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) reports that solar and storage costs have fallen dramatically over the past decade. The price of residential solar was reported down from $7.53/W in 2010 to $2.65/W in 2021,; utility-scale solar was $5.66/W a decade ago to $0.89/W today. That was driven in large part by higher module efficiency and lower module cost.  The combination of low-cost solar farms and lithium-ion batteries has produced a dynamic new hybrid resource capable of providing energy from the sun after dark and reshaping America's power mix in the 2020s. The spread of these hybrid facilities has been fueled largely by plummeting solar-plus-storage prices, which have begun undercutting conventional fossil-fueled generation. Levelized solar energy prices - Adjusted for inflation over the estimated 30-year lives of the projects - are in the 2 to 3 cents per kwh range, according to a recent report from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Just a few years ago, solar-plus-storage prices were more than triple today's going rates. Today, solar and battery storage provide the lowest cost energy on the planet. Last year, 3/4s of all new electric generation capacity in the world was built with solar.   The windiest on record   2021 was the single best year on record for wind turbine manufacturers with 93 new gigawatts (BILLION watts) being added—a 53% increase since 2020.  The 2021 Global Wind Report summary states:   “Through technology innovations and economies of scale, the global wind power market has nearly quadrupled in size over the past decade and established itself as one of the most cost-competitive and resilient power sources across the world.”   “Today, there is now 743 GW of wind power capacity worldwide, helping to avoid over 1.1 billion tons of CO2 globally—equivalent to the annual carbon emissions of South America.”   HOT ELECTRIC CARS   Data assembled back in March from Germany's largest automotive industry review produced a startling statistic - 1 in 5 cars made in Germany can be plugged in.   The Schmidt Automotive Research Center found that 74,000 of the 374,000 cars that left German assembly lines were either electric or hybrid electric vehicles.   On the demand side, things are just as rosy. Germany is the fourth largest auto market in the world, and electric car registrations grew from a 4% national market share in December 2019, to a whopping 26% market share just 12 months later.    This is just in the background of a global surge in EV purchasing that climbed 40% during 2020, when most markets were suffering from COVID-related issues. Bloomberg New Energy Fund “expects that EVs will make up 20-30% of sales in the United States, European Union and China by 2025, based on "proposed and confirmed rules" in those markets. President Joe Biden has set a goal for half of new passenger vehicle sales in the United States to be electric vehicles by 2030. And New York and others have banned the sale of gas cars by 2035. 2021 is estimated to be "yet another record year for EV sales globally," with 5.6 million sold. That is 83% higher than 2020 and a 168% increase over 2019 sales. And global momentum towards zero-emissions vehicles (ZEV) has "accelerated significantly," Bloomberg said. EVs will "capture a higher share of passenger vehicle sales, sooner than previously expected."   The green new pension   Since its green shoots 50 years ago, acceptance of ESG (environmental, social, and governance) considerations in institutional investing – especially at pension funds – has evolved with distinct shifts in investor preferences.   As the holders of the largest state-controlled pension fund on Earth, the South Korean monetary authorities released a statement in May that the $771 billion National Pension Fund will cease all investments related to coal power both at home and abroad.   The fund also announced that they would revamp guidelines for investment strategies to ensure a more sustainable pattern emerges in the future.   Worldwide, ESG (Environmental Social & Governance) assets surpassed $35 trillion in 2020 - up from $30.6 trillion in 2018 and $22.8 trillion in 2016 reaching a third of current total global assets under management, according to the Global Sustainable Investment Association.   ExxonMobil – long known for its anti-climate change positions - used to have bragging rights as the world's most valuable public company with $500 Billion of market valuation. Now, America's largest oil company is in steady decline. It's been kicked out of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and has less than half of its peak market value. Adios, coal: Spain hits 50% renewable milestone Back in mid-May, the Spanish legislature announced it would be phasing out all oil, coal, and gas production by 2042, and that all carbon-emitting vehicle sales would be banned by 2040.   In the short term, the Spanish lawmakers want 74% of the national energy consumption to be entirely renewable by the end of the decade. They are quite close to that goal already, as the month of May saw 50% of the nation's energy demand fulfilled by green energy.   Romania also joined the effort, alerting the EU that through its National Recovery and Resilience Plan the country would cease all coal production by 2032, at which time it plans to have installed 34% renewable electricity to take over the baton.   G7, the world's seven largest developed economies, all agreed to stop coal financing by the end of the year. Now that Japan is also on board, that leaves the African, India, and China as the last remaining holdouts.   In the US, 22 states now have carbon-free energy goals:   Arizona 100% carbon-free electricity by 2070 Adopted by order of the Arizona Commerce Commission in May 2021, extending and expanding the existing state RPS. Docket number RU-00000A-18-0284. California 100% carbon-free electricity by 2045 2018 legislation (SB 100) extended and expanded the existing state RPS. State agencies are required to submit implementation plans by January 1, 2021. Also in 2018, Gov. Jerry Brown's Executive Order B-55-18 set a goal of statewide carbon neutrality by no later than 2045, with net negative GHG emissions thereafter. Colorado 100% carbon-free electricity by 2050 for Xcel Energy A 2019 law (SB 19-236) codified a pledge previously made by Xcel, whose service territory covers approximately 60% of the state's load. It is mandatory “so long as it is technically and economically feasible.” Connecticut 100% carbon-free electricity by 2040 Governor Ned Lamont's 2019 Executive Order (Number 3) set a 2040 goal for carbon-free electricity and asked the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to develop a decarbonization plan for the power sector, in line with previous legislation to cut economy-wide carbon emissions by 80% below 2001 levels by 2050. District of Columbia 100% renewable energy by 2032 through the RPS The Clean Energy DC Omnibus Amendment Act of 2018 (DC Act 22-583) amended the existing RPS to mandate 100% renewable electricity by the year 2032. Hawaii 100% renewable energy by 2045 through the RPS 2015 legislation (HB623) made Hawaii the first state to set a 100% RPS for the electricity sector. Illinois 100% clean energy by 2050 2021 legislation (SB2408) established a goal of 100% clean energy by 2050, with interim targets of 40% by 2030 and 50% by 2040. Louisiana Net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 Governor John Bel Edwards' 2020 Executive Order (JBE 2020-18) established a Climate Initiatives Task Force to develop a roadmap and make recommendations. Maine 100% clean energy by 2050 2019 legislation (LD 1494) increased Maine's RPS to 80% by 2030, and set a goal of 100% by 2050. Also LD1679 sets an economy-wide goal of 80% cuts to greenhouse gases by 2050. Massachusetts Net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 In 2020, the Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs set a 2050 net-zero GHG emissions goal under the authority of 2008 legislation. The same goal was then included in a March 2021 climate action law (Bill S.9). A decarbonization roadmap was released at the end of 2020. Michigan Economy-wide carbon neutrality by 2050 Governor Gretchen Whitmer's order in 2020 (Executive Directive 2020-10) set a goal “to achieve economy-wide carbon neutrality no later than 2050.” It directed the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy to develop a plan by the end of 2021. Nebraska Net-zero carbon emissions from generation resources by 2050 for Nebraska Public Power District and Omaha Public Power District; 2040 for Lincoln Electric System Nebraska is the only state served solely by publicly owned utilities. As of December 2021, the three public utilities that serve the vast majority of customers have all adopted 100% clean energy goals. Nevada 100% carbon-free electricity by 2050 2019 legislation (SB 358) raised the RPS to 50% by 2030, and set a goal of a net-zero emission power sector by 2050. New Jersey 100% carbon-free electricity by 2050 Governor Phil Murphy's Executive Order 28 in 2018 set a carbon free goal for the power sector and directed the BPU to develop an Energy Master Plan, which was released in 2020. New Mexico 100% carbon-free electricity by 2045 2019 legislation (SB 489) requires a zero-carbon power supply by 2050, with at least 80% from renewables. New York 100% carbon-free electricity by 2040 2019 legislation (S6599) requires zero-emissions electricity by 2040 and sets a goal of cutting all state GHGs 85% by 2050. A Climate Action Council will develop a plan. North Carolina Carbon neutrality in the electricity sector by 2050 2021 legislation (HB 951) requires the North Carolina Utilities Commission to “take all reasonable steps” to achieve a 70% reduction in CO2 emissions from electric generating facilities in the state by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2050. Oregon Greenhouse gas emissions reduced 100 percent below baseline emissions by 2040 2021 legislation (HB 2021) requires investor-owned utilities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with the electricity they sell to 80 percent below baseline emissions levels by 2030, 90 percent below baseline emissions levels by 2035, and 100 percent below baseline emissions levels by 2040. Puerto Rico 100% renewable energy for electricity by 2050 2019 legislation (SB1121), the Public Energy Policy Law of Puerto Rico, set a timeline for reaching 100% renewable electricity by the year 2050. Rhode Island 100% renewable energy electricity by 2030 Governor Gina Raimondo's 2020 Executive Order (20-01) requires the Office of Energy Resources to “conduct economic and energy market analysis and develop viable policy and programmatic pathways” to meet 100% of statewide electricity deliveries with renewables by 2030. Virginia 100% carbon-free electricity by 2045 for Dominion Energy and 2050 for Appalachian Power Company The 2020 Virginia Clean Economy Act (House Bill 1526 and Senate Bill 851) requires zero-carbon utilities by 2050 at the latest. Washington 100% zero-emissions electricity by 2045 2019's Clean Energy Transformation Act (SB5116) applies to all utilities. The state Commerce Department started a rulemaking process in August 2019. Utilities must file implementation plans by January 2022. Wisconsin 100% carbon-free electricity by 2050 Governor Tony Evers' Executive Order (EO38) in 2019 directed a new Office of Sustainability and Clean Energy to “achieve a goal” of all carbon-free power by 2050. Natural Gas Moratoriums & Heat Pumps Dozens of cities, including San Francisco, Berkeley and San Jose in California; Cambridge, Mass.; and Seattle, Oregon have moved to ban natural gas hook ups in new buildings as a way to combat climate change. In Westchester NY, there has been a moratorium on new natural gas hookups since 2018.  And on December 15th, 2021 - New York City banned natural gas hookups for new buildings starting in 2027. Previously, Geothermal or ground source heat pumps were growing at a rate of  7% per year. Since geothermal is the most efficient form of heating and cooling – with 500% efficiencies from using the stored heat in the ground beneath our feet – it is expected that the growth in both air and ground source heat pumps will soon reach double digits.    Green oil All is not business-as-usual in the boardrooms of some of the world's largest petroleum producers.   In a landmark court decision, a judge in the Netherlands ordered Royal Dutch Shell to cut emissions by 45% after 17,000 people brought a lawsuit that Shell's large greenhouse gas footprint merits a significant investment in CO2-slashing as a debt to society. Elsewhere in Europe, the Italian oil company Eni became the first European oil company to launch a corporate bond that is linked to sustainability. The €1 billion 7-year bond is linked to two key performance indicators: “Increasing renewable installed capacity to 5GW by the end of 2025; and cutting the net carbon footprint of its upstream business by 50% by 2024,” Lastly, Engine No.1, a shareholder group of ExxonMobil, managed to get two of their candidates elected to the American company's board on the argument that the company's long-term business strategy didn't take into account all of the value loss potential from climate change, both from shareholders jumping ship, and potential damages from extreme weather events. BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager with $8.6 trillion in private capital, ensured the Engine No.1 candidates got the positions by utilizing their vote as large shareholders. 100% Clean Energy On April 29th, 2021 over 29 million people in California got 95% of their power from renewable energy— and were contributing virtually nothing towards climate change as far as their electricity needs were concerned.  California follows another major population center, South Australia, which recently fulfilled 100% demand with renewables. “It sends chills down my spine. It's amazing,” said Elliot Mainzer, president and CEO of the California Independent System Operator, which runs the state's main power grid. “These types of transitions aren't always pretty. But we're getting a lot of renewable generation online, making a real dent in the state's carbon emissions,”  Mainzer recently urged the state to construct another 10,000 megawatts of renewables, an equivalent of one-eighth of the entire state baseload power, in order to cover the gaps in the grid. Covering gaps in renewables is important for two reasons. The first is that electricity is the only resource that must be consumed as soon as it's produced. That means projections of demand must always be just about perfect.  The second reason is that renewables most often have no form of storage, and the electricity they generate goes into the grid immediately upon production. To help navigate around these natural flaws in renewable energy, California has been a key leader in coordinating with other states in the west to share surplus power across state lines, creating a more robust grid, removing more need for fossil fuels, and taking advantage of other states' resources. For example, California is much sunnier than Wyoming, but Wyoming has the most consistent wind power of any state. Utility companies in each place can exchange their baseload power with the strengths of the other and reduce fossil fuel input and increase grid stability. This is the best method for protecting against blackouts and drops in supply due to changing weather until cost-effective and scalable storage technology become widely implemented. A Clean Economy = Healthier Communities Scientists at UC Berkeley are hailing the state's diesel engine standards for drastically dropping the amount of diesel particulate matter in the air, and reducing the cardiopulmonary deaths attributable to poor air quality. If you never saw the pictures of the city of Los Angeles before the Clean Air Act, they look like something out of the movie Escape from L.A. But encouraging shifts away from high-sulfur fuels, and replacing diesel ships with electric ones, has gradually scaled the horror show back. “Our analysis of mobile source DPM (diesel particulate matter) emissions suggests that many California sector-based policies have been highly effective,” write the authors of the paper published in Science. They found that from 1990 to 2014, the amount of DPM in the California skies fell by 78%, while cardiopulmonary and cancer deaths linked to diesel pollution dropped by 82%. These are just some of the many positive actions that have been happening around the country and globe. Obviously, there still much to be concerned about.  As I record this podcast, I have one son in Boulder Colorado whose former home community was destroyed by the recent wildfires.  Only 1 mile away from his current home, 100 mph winds created a blast furnace of destruction for thousands of homes. Thankfully, the massive snowfall has now contained that catastrophe. But my other son and his family were pummeled by 11 feet of snow on the way to their holiday vacation in Lake Tahoe. Don't Look Up  If you haven't seen the new comedy film “Don't Look Up” – it's worth watching.  While the insanity of ignoring science is pretty funny – the reality is that we can't allow ourselves to continue to be distracted by day-to-day petty politics and our ridiculous obsession with social media.

Jane Keate, Shell's Global Brand Standards and Assurance Manager, and Dean Aragón, CEO & Vice Chairman of Shell Brands International, explain how a brand as massive and well-known as Shell connects to its employees, customers and external stakeholders through its all-in approach to sonic branding, and how building a distinctive yet flexible sound helps deepen and humanize the brand's identity while also fulfilling marketing's ROI goals.
