Grasshoppers

"Is there an absent of other organisms in your area that you can tell are gone?"

Yes, and, it is the same in Vermont, China and here in Ontario, three places I have been in the last 7 years. Everything is going away, and, it is the same truth everywhere on the globe, since, the altering of the composition of the atmosphere by internal combustion engines pervades everywhere the sky does.

"Is there any chemical you can think of that may have leached into your soil, whether personally or externally caused?"

Not here where I am living now, no, and in the places I've been in Vermont that isn't the case either. I know it is a terrifying idea to grasp that the sky itself has been altered so much, and the O2 level has declined so much now that species are dying from hypoxia, however species continue to die from a lack of O2, which is also the energy that drives ICE's.

"Have you talked with the local people in your area of this issue? What do they think?"

There is overwhelming evidence that my assertions are are founded in reality. Reactions from others vary, and any with a good background in any of the sciences, or those who did well in school, ranges from scant belief to outright disbelief that it was not only allowed to occur in the first place, but that it continues. Those without a suitable background will believe you when you tell them that we looked closely at the sky, at the molecular level, and what the sky is made from resembles a bunch of little blue Elephants and purple Unicorns. If they don't know, they don't know, and in the absence of knowledge, people create gods and demons.

"Do you think the climate in your area has anything to do with this?"

In my mind I have never, ever, seen any evidence that climate has ever been able to have an effect like this on any of the life forms here. Not even close, even though many do speak of it, I have never seen any examples or justification to blaming the weather outside for any effects on animal life, especially not an effect that results in vast numbers of species going completely extinct. There is no evidence of this.

"Do you have a lot of chemtrails in your area?"

For all I know, chemtrails could be an attempt to restore the O2 level, since the biosphere is collapsing presently and the damage is at the elemental level, but generally chemtrails are over the cities and heavily populated areas, not so much here.

Cool William! You fit right in with nature!

Much love,

The oxygen levels of earth have been declining for millions of years. The sole reason there existed 4 foot long centipedes, dragonflies with three foot wingspans and a myriad of other giant insects and arachnids is due to the increased oxygen levels of those times. The correlation between oxygen levels and insects is their size -- not their existence. They have survived all the major extinctions. They have changed, yes and evolved, many species fade away and hundreds more are "created", "evolved" or "discovered" every year -- evidence to this constant change.

So I would not expect insects to just "disappear" as the oxygen level is reduced slowly, they just won't grow as large. By the time there is so little oxygen that all the insects disappear, I am certain many, many other creatures will have met their species fate before that time - so it isn't like we would not have noticed.

Did the dinosaurs abuse internal combustion engines that lowered the oxygen levels of the planet during their times? I don't believe so. So there is definitely a natural aspect to all of this without a doubt.

Have humans' activities helped reduce oxygen levels beyond where they would be naturally? likely plausible, but to what extent? Where are the stats? This should be looked into first before we start using loose correlation of the observations of one person in one area of the planet to spell out the facts for us.

Have there been changes in insect populations along with the climate changes we have been seeing? Yes, it appears so, but there could be a natural correlation here as well.

Things we do know, is that humans have no proper control over the amount of ****e (and I don't mean the organic type) or what type we are polluting the planet with, or what the result will be until it is too late. We need to reach a balance - this is obvious.

So we do know that the planet needs "help" (or rather, that we do). We have a million ways to say it and have been saying it for a long time -- no secret here. We know the earth and it's flora and fauna are and will continue to be affected. We know this and little has changed.
The real problem is collective inaction to force the solutions on those who only care about their current lives and their offshore bank accounts. Or better yet, we need to remove all those psychopaths from power.

Then we are back to the daily theme here on Avalon ... full circle.

My 2 cents

Thank you for this William. Could you give me your zip code, or postal code, so we can mark the elevation and location?

indeed would bee happy to..52531.we live outside of town..Monroe county area.albia iowa.and I just wanted to post that vid to reassure others that the scum running the show are not the only ones pushing back.HOPE.there are true protectors out there..unseen unknown..warriors.true to the earth and all beings there of.

Indeed, insects are very adaptable. Prior to 2010 we didn't know they were under water caterpillars and now we have discovered I think as many as 12 species of them. Mostly Hawaii and some Africa I believe. They absorb oxygen through their skin. And never develop into a butterfly. Adaptation and evolution.

295 meters above sea level, at the town hall. Interesting. I'm going to try to map out all of our insect hatcheries over the next couple weeks, (it is monumentally important to have as complete a picture as we can) and then I'm getting on a plane to Beijing to begin the work of terra forming. It's a long story, but I was at the historical two week long Accord 21 in 1999, and the Chinese made up half of the group assembled for this. At the very least their government is stocked with electrical engineers and other trade related professionals, and unlike us, they have no lawyers economists or other non-science based professionals in their government. It's like Tyson said, when we look at our governments they are all lawyers and businessmen types, and none of the sciences are represented, not even remotely.

In any event, we will be using the government and private industries together to do this. Gauges do not lie: they are incapable, and in this very real arena of elements and composition of the atmosphere itself, those readings are staggeringly inadequate, and so far there has not been a reversal of the downward slide the O2 level continues to make daily. It's simply a matter of arithmetic to determine that an area of Oxygen that measures several hundred cubic kilometres is used daily by engines, and therefore removed from the stock pile of it that all life here requires.

Apple trees cleverly wrap their seeds in a tasty fruit, so that deer will eat them and then poop their seeds out somewhere else. Otherwise, all of the apple trees would have clusters of their own children growing around their base, and this would likely result in the parent tree being suffocated by its' own offspring.
