Here we are in the middle of Winter with all the blahs that go with this time of year. So much bad news pumped down our collective throats all the time via the creepy mass media machine. Why? They say good news does not sell - but how would they know unless they actually tried doing it? I think something more sinister is going on. Corporations love to keep us all living in fear - great for their huge stock portfolios that only make money when we are hooked on escapist entertainment, drugs and engaged in wars.
Anyways - this blog is meant to make you feel better! Check out these news articles about the US and other countries crime rates (all) steadily going down for the last 40 years! Social scientists are at a loss to explain it, or cannot agree - especially if one considers the weak economy for the last few years. I would like to think it is because humans are evolving to a higher consciousness level.
Another great recent event was the US and China committing to do something about slowing Global Warming! These 2 countries are the 2 biggest polluters and have been the only countries not to ever sign any binding agreements at past Climate Conferences.
And finally articles about how solar and wind energy are doubling in the US now every year and Northern Europe is on its way to a total clean energy reality! No more dirty, dangerous energies!
