Peter Koenig: Israel wants CONTROL of water, hydrocarbons in the Middle East

December 06, 2023 -

Koenig, who was formerly with the World Bank, put forward this claim during a recent appearance on the "Health Ranger Report." He told the Health Ranger Mike Adams that he and some of his World Bank colleagues had made a study of water availability in the Palestine-Israel area.

The said study found that 80 percent of all the water in the area was either on or below the Palestinian territories. This was one of the reasons why Israel never wanted to honor the Oslo Accords, ...

The STARVATION MATRIX decoded: Russia, fertilizer, hydrocarbons, CO2, the Haber equation and crop yields explained

March 09, 2022 -

Break out your nerd caps.

There are three equations you'll need to understand in order to decode what's happening. Those three equations are:

#1) Photosynthesis

#2: Hydrocarbon combustion

#3: The Haber equation for creating fertilizer

Photosynthesis

Notice that plants consume CO2 as a food nutrient. Combined with water and sunlight, they generate plant sugars (metabolic energy) while releasing oxygen that you and I breathe....

Can geographical location affect the chemical composition of plant-based essential oils? Science explains

August 12, 2020 - aliphatic hydrocarbons (7.7 to 45.5 percent) and oxygenated monoterpenes (2 to 13.9 percent). Among the terpenoids, the main constituents of dwarf everlast essential oils were:

The essential oils also contained appreciable amounts of aliphatic hydrocarbons, mainly octadecane and heneicosane. These likely came from the wax that covered the outer surface of the cuticle of the dwarf everlasts. The oils’ octadecane content was found to be ...

Interstellar space is filled with “toxic grease” that would make future space travel very difficult, say researchers

September 01, 2018 -

This dust is made from the same carbon that makes up most asteroids, planets, stars, and organic lifeforms. An international research team replicated it in a laboratory to determine its effects on future space exploration.

They reported that the dust behaves somewhat like grease. The Milky Way alone is overflowing with it, much more the rest of the universe. Any starship that goes through interstellar space will find itself covered in a sticky layer of cosmic dust....

Sunlight triggers chemical reactions that make the Deepwater Horizon oil spill unlikely to degrade

August 05, 2018 -

The disaster was the biggest marine oil spill in U.S. history. More than three million barrels of oil escaped before the leak was sealed.

The day after the disaster started, sunlight began to affect the oil slicks that surrounded the burning oil rig. Over the following days and weeks, the light triggered chemical reactions that added oxygen atoms to the chained-together carbon and hydrogen atoms that made up oil molecules.

The process created oxygenated hydrocarbons ...

Immense hydrocarbon cycle discovered in the world’s oceans

April 06, 2021 -

The study was conducted by researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI). Using funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation, they investigated a previously neglected area for signs of an overlooked global hydrocarbon cycle and how it might impact the ocean's response to oil spills.

"We demonstrated that there is a massive and rapid hydrocarbon cycle that occurs in the ocean, and that it is distinct ...

Systematic review looks at the medicinal potential of TCM herb, Gynura

February 01, 2019 -

In the study published in the African Journal of Traditional, Complementary and Alternative Medicines, the researchers reviewed articles on Gynura that were published between the years 1979 to 2016, which they found through a literature search using different databases. Their search revealed that Gynura is rich in alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic acids, terpenoids, polysaccharides, and aliphatic compounds.Pharmacological properties of Gynura

The researchers attributed ...

Oil and gas AREN’T “fossil fuels” – they’re RENEWABLE resources constantly recreated by our planet

October 02, 2024 -

The abiogenic deep origin of hydrocarbons and oil and gas deposit formation is the subject of a paper that highlights some of the lies that humanity has been told about the supposedly finite amounts of oil and gas that exist throughout the planet.

The paper posits that the asthenosphere of the earth generates hydrocarbons that exist throughout the deep faults in the earth's crust. These hydrocarbons form oil and gas deposits in all sorts of rocks as part of the natural ...

Fascinating interview with Doug Casey on the collapse of the $5 Trillion Green Energy SCAM

December 13, 2024 -

According to a recent interview with renowned economist and author Doug Casey, over $5 trillion in subsidies and government spending over the past two decades has yielded little more than a 2% reduction in the world's dependence on hydrocarbons. Despite all the investments in green energy, hydrocarbons remain the backbone of global energy production at 84%.Misguided $5 Trillion investment in green energy has not reduced the world's dependence on hydrocarbons

Fracking found to worsen air pollution, increasing respiratory disease

February 23, 2019 -

Air pollution in the urban areas has been decreasing gradually since the 1970s. However, with the fracking boom happening around 10 years ago, the U.S. has now found itself a new source of hydrocarbons, which enter the atmosphere via compressors, pipes, separators, valves, or through exhaust vents on tanks.

This means that in recent years, there has been a flood of research to ascertain the amount of emissions from fracked oil and gas wells. There has been much talk ...

The DOLLAR will DIE… and the Ruble will DOMINATE as “commodities-based” currencies make paper fiat obsolete

March 24, 2022 -

There is no other rational conclusion. Anyone who is honest and who understands finance would reach the same conclusion.

See, the US is now characterized by a decadent, collapsing culture, insane levels of money printing and shocking inflation rates that are going to lead to food riots before the end of 2022. We may also see fuel rationing, food price controls, food rationing and similar actions that smack of economic authoritarianism. (The US also now features extreme ...

Fracking wastewater found to contaminate lakes

July 17, 2017 -

Fracking's market share is expected to increase over the next few years because it promotes shifting the focus away from coal — a move that is guaranteed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.   However, fracking can still be a harmful practice — large volumes of wastewater from fracking sites were found to have released a plethora of toxic chemicals and compounds into surface waters, leading to the contamination of a Pennsylvania watershed.

A study published online in Environmental ...

Trash-to-fuel research could reduce mountains of plastic waste

May 21, 2019 -

The conversion technique came from the laboratories of Purdue University. A joint work of professors, graduate students, and students at the academic institute's schools of chemical engineering and engineering technology, this technique could convert more than 90 percent of polyolefin garbage into usable products.

"Our strategy is to create a driving force for recycling by converting polyolefin waste into a wide range of valuable products, including polymers, naphtha (a ...

Making sure baby gets the best: Researchers evaluate how a mother’s diet impacts the quality of breast milk

June 21, 2018 -

The research team obtained data on the participants' dietary habits. Likewise, the scientists used the headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) technique to detect the presence of organochlorine pesticides and both mono- and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in breast milk samples. The experts also used the Ni electron capture detection technique to determine the levels of organochlorine pesticides in the samples.

The findings revealed that mothers living in rural ...

Diabetes science: Tasmanian bluegum regulates blood sugar levels

February 04, 2019 -

Recent estimates by the World Health Organization show that more than 422 million adults worldwide suffer from diabetes. This condition has two major types. The first of these is Type 1 diabetes or juvenile diabetes, which occurs when the body is unable to produce insulin. On the other hand, patients with Type 2 diabetes still produce insulin, however, their cells are unable to respond like they normally do. One thing that both types of diabetes have in common is that they ...
