NASA 2014: Over 32 advanced civilizations have collapsed and we are next in line. FRANCE: Throughout the 18th century, France was the greatest superpower in Europe, if not the world.
But France became complacent, believing that they had some sort of ‘divine right’ to reign supreme, and that they could be as fiscally irresponsible as they liked. The French government spent money like drunken sailors; they had substantial welfare programs, free hospitals, and grand monuments. They held vast territories overseas, engaged in constant warfare, and even had their own intrusive intelligence service that spied on Kings and subjects alike. Of course, they couldn’t pay for any of this.
Rinse - Repeat.
It wasn’t climate change, it wasn’t China, it wasn’t Russia. It was an overindulgent, greedy government that caused hyperinflation, civil war, military conquest and – genocide. Global dominance fell after the French Revolution which called for all political opponents to face the guillotine. In order to regain its place on the board game, France had to decolonize and focus on agriculture and manufacturing. The country now ranks 7th in the globe.
The same agriculture that pulled France out of its hole is now being threatened. With the intention of destroying farming and ranching due to ‘climate change’. In the US, Idaho’s government issued curtailment of water for eastern farms that will dry up 500,000 acres of profitable potato fields. Idaho had a good rain/snow year so why would the government cause this economic devastation? Governor Brad Little says it’s the groundwater that has been depleted… He has since begun negotiations with the black farmers who appealed. It is an election year…
The Biden Regime declared China persona non grata, China was the source of most of America’s rare earth mineral needs. There is only one such mine in the states, Mountain Pass Mine located in San Bernardino, California. An open pit mine, that was closed in 2002 due to a toxic waste spill. The mining operations shut down – a slew of bankruptcies and hedge funds attempted to revive it to no avail. Today, it is owned by Hedge Funds; JHL Capital Group, QVT Financial, llp, the CCP and public investors.
CHINA Wins.
The extraction process requires a large amount of water. The production of one kilogram of rare earth oxides requires an average of 2,300 liters of water. Southern California doesn’t have water. It gets its water from the Colorado Aqueduct which is in peril for droughts.
These open pit mines ravage the environment, disrupt eco-systems, and can produce wastewater ponds filled with acids, heavy metals and radioactive material that might leak into groundwater.
Fossil Fuels bad… Open Mine pits good…
Idaho, Wyoming and Colorado want to build rare earth mineral mines to mitigate simply buying from China. Rare earth minerals are used in making ‘green energy’ wind turbines and electric vehicles and solar panels and magnets. They require ‘cheap labor’ to compete with China. The standard government response to US creating these vast hell holes of toxicity? National Security.
To produce rare earth minerals – water, chemicals and power are required. That ‘power’ comes in the form of fossil fuels. The water means cutting back citizen resources, and the chemicals drive toxic air and underground water supplies.
MP Materials owns the majority shares of Mountain Pass mine and to date Shenghe Resources has been the sole purchaser of MP Material's rare earth concentrate. Shenghe Resources is – CHINA. So the US Government has decided that America needs to erode pristine land, and agriculture land - its water resources and its power in order to sell rare earth minerals to China – but we can’t just buy the minerals from China because that is a national security threat…
In Wyoming a rare earth deposit was discovered in 2023 on top of a coal mine by Ramaco Resources which claims an estimate of 1.2 million tons worth $37 billion. The deposit is near Sundance, a pristine resort town. Funding has been provided by the federal and state Governments. That’s called a ‘free-ride’.
The discoveries so far in the US pale to the value of the Minerals in Ukraine which triggered a war for their market value of $11.7 trillion.
The mining is less than green. An electric car requires six times the mineral inputs of a conventional car, and a wind plant requires nine times more minerals than a gas-fired plant. Yet Europe and the US still claim that poisoning earth with these mines is necessary to achieve ‘net zero emissions’…
As a result of the pollution and waste and water usage Experts of Science are having difficulty selling the ‘sustainability’ quadrant. Instead, they revert to nondisclosure, propaganda, and outright lies to suppress the tremendous environmental impact. How these magnetic mineral extractions might impact earth’s magnetic north movement has yet to be analyzed by our devout expert scientists. The same Magnetic North that is spiraling south while "experts" claim to have no knowledge why...
While the death and extinction of civilizations is tuned to greed, we are at a stage wherein our manipulation of earths metals and minerals to the degree anticipated by 2030, 2040 and 2050 could enhance the movement of magnetic north with devastating consequences. This nongreen transition is of course based on money. Greed. The two main values that have been historically the cause of civilizations decline. Only this time, it’s on a global level. And like CERN the ultimate ramifications could be catastrophic for planet earth.
". . . and we are next in line." Precisely, and it's inevitable.
