Topic: Methane

The "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish" strategy used by Microsoft in the 1990s is now being applied to the agricultural sector by Bill Gates. By investing in patented synthetic meat companies like Impossible Foods, Gates seeks to create a monopoly on protein while using methane regulations to bankrupt traditional ranchers. The "Green Premium" is explained as a regulatory tactic to artificially inflate the price of real meat, turning it into a luxury good.

Mark Morano discusses the push for alternative proteins, including the EU's approval of insect powder and Bill Gates' investment in lab-grown "synthetic beef." He describes the process of growing meat in steel vats using fetal blood and 3D printing technology. Morano suggests that the targeting of methane emissions is a pretext for eliminating traditional livestock farming in favor of corporate-controlled food sources.

George Wiseman explains the "Lord's Pump," a pistonless pump technology developed by L. Throckmorton that utilizes Browns Gas. The device uses a combustible mixture to create pressure and vacuum cycles to move liquid without mechanical pistons. Measurements suggest the pump can generate ten times more potential energy in driven water than the energy required to produce the gas through electrolysis.

In 50,000 BC, a global meeting was allegedly held to address the threat of massive herds of dangerous animals, including giant sloths and mammoths. The plan involved using explosive methane gas pockets to destroy or redirect these herds. Dr. Little points out that modern geological research has identified giant holes in the ocean floor that suggest massive methane bursts occurred during this same timeframe.

The discussion defends animal husbandry, specifically managed grazing, as a tool for environmental restoration and topsoil creation. Morrell disputes the claim that cows are a primary driver of global warming, noting that wetlands produce significantly more methane than livestock. Despite regulatory pressure on small farmers in the U.S. and Europe, she observes a growing movement of people seeking local, independent food supplies.

Industrial feedlots are criticized for isolating components of nature, leading to problems like methane accumulation and antibiotic resistance. In contrast, healthy pastures utilize methanotropic bacteria to consume cattle emissions, while pigs in orchards provide natural pest control by sealing tree trunks with mud. Working with natural systems creates "knock-on" benefits where nature rewards the farmer rather than creating new diseases.

The episode concludes with announcements regarding the upcoming Higher Side Overhaul, which will merge the free and plus websites into a modern infrastructure. Listeners are invited to a joint session on the 25th and encouraged to subscribe to the Plus version for a second hour covering indigenous spirits, farm profitability, and the "methane myth." The show signs off with a critique of corporate food producers and a musical outro.

The guest questions the completeness of IPCC climate models, arguing they focus on carbon dioxide while neglecting the role of water vapor in heat transportation. The discussion touches on reports of warming on other planets as a challenge to purely human-centric climate theories. Despite these technical critiques, both speakers agree that burning fossil fuels is toxic and should be phased out for environmental health.

Daniel Pinchbeck outlines the dire environmental stakes detailed in his book, highlighting the risk of human extinction due to climate change. He explains the danger of methane deposits in the Siberian permafrost, which are 30 times more potent than CO2 as a heat-trapping gas. The conversation links these ecological tipping points to the failure of establishment politicians like Obama and Clinton to address underlying life-support issues.

The conversation covers the geopolitical history of the polar regions, including Nazi Germany’s "New Schwabenland" claim in Antarctica and their wartime occupation of Spitsbergen. It also addresses modern Russia’s efforts to refurbish World War II-era bases in the Arctic. Osman suggests Russia is interested in both esoteric knowledge and practical energy resources like frozen methane fields left over from the last ice age.

The guest briefly addresses environmental issues in California, including radiation from Fukushima and methane leaks. He suggests that individuals can defend themselves against radiation and mind control by changing their internal energy and becoming "service to others" oriented. Kelly concludes by promoting his book, "Cities Under The Plains," and providing his contact information.

The discussion shifts to NASA's recent confirmation of liquid water seeps on the Martian surface during summer months. Brandenburg links this to the presence of methane in the atmosphere and the discovery of sodium perchlorate, a chemical used in rocket fuel. He suggests that these chemical signatures are biological waste products, indicating that life currently exists in the Martian soil and water tables.

Guy McPherson asserts that Homo sapiens is terminally ill, citing the extinction of roughly 200 species per day as a precursor to human demise. He identifies 30 self-reinforcing feedback loops that have been triggered, including the "clathrate gun" or methane bomb in the Arctic. The conversation highlights the trade-off humanity has made, sacrificing soil, air, and water quality for industrial conveniences like smartphones.

The "clathrate gun" hypothesis involves the release of methane hydrates from the Arctic Ocean, a gas over 100 times more powerful than CO2 in the short term. NASA's CARVE project documented methane plumes 150 kilometers wide in 2013, indicating the process has accelerated since 2007. Analysis by Sam Karana suggests this feedback loop could lead to a 4-degree Celsius temperature increase by 2030, a level humans have never survived.

Extreme weather events like hurricanes contribute to a feedback loop where mass tree death turns carbon sinks into carbon sources through decomposition. Current atmospheric CO2 levels of 396 parts per million have not been seen in 20 million years, while methane levels have nearly tripled since the Industrial Revolution. McPherson references physicist Tim Garrett’s 2009 paper, which concludes that only the complete collapse of industrial civilization can prevent runaway greenhouse effects.

The theory that methane gas releases cause ships to sink is critiqued as being as far-fetched as paranormal explanations. Quasar argues that while methane might explain a single ship sinking, it fails to account for aircraft disappearances or the mathematical improbability of gas erupting precisely beneath moving vessels.

The global elite are reportedly preparing for a mass extinction event triggered by the Yellowstone volcano or atmospheric changes involving flammable methane clouds. Douglas Dietrich claims the ruling class plans to retreat to underground shelters while using "zombie" labor forces on the surface that do not require oxygen or protection from heat. This scenario mirrors past extinction events where over 90% of life on Earth was wiped out.
