Shrooville
The story begins in the small town of Shrooville which is set in the vast futuristic year of 2040. There was a boy named Rex who was quite the traveler and he traveled from biome to biome. Rex arrived at Shrooville on a sunny afternoon on the exact day and time of March 15, 2040. Rex traveled inside of his flying Porsche. Yes, there are now flying cars!! Oh how technology has advanced in the last decade. But we see Rex land in Shrooville and as he gets out of his car, he looks outside at the beautiful view of Shrooville. The view is very fast and colorful and there are many trees each with unique colors and symmetry to them. One tree is green with shades of blue and purple and behind it is a tree that is yellow with blue and red trails around it. The flowers on the ground are of blue and pink and the buildings are very tall and bright. Each building created differently, but large enough to house over 10 people. The biome of Shrooville is surely a sight to see and a very much livable place. This is the first time Rex has come across a livable biome. Every biome he has encountered was destroyed or empty. There was very little remains of what was left, so for Rex this was special and it brought him joy. Rex may have finally found a place to stay after months of traveling. Rex was born on June 16th, 2025 and he grew up with no parents. Rex was left with no home and began traveling at the age of 6. He looked desperately for a place to call his new home, yet never found a home. But on the joyful day of May 13th, 2026, he found a place to call his home. It was in a small, but welcoming town called BrewTown. Rex lived there up until 2039 on the month of September and the 16th day. A very large superstorm destroyed the entire town and left it in ruins. All that remained were a few signs and little pieces of houses, but everything else was gone. Rex lost his home that day and was left back to travel for over 5 months until he found Shrooville. Now, Rex believes there may be hope yet again as he found this new world. Rex continued to take in the bright and colorful view as more cars flew into the world. Rex made it to the entrance of Shrooville and was greeted by a young and beautiful woman who said hello to him and let him into the place. Rex kept walking around as he saw hundreds of people all outside walking around. Kids were playing in the grass, parents watched their kids and even joined in on the fun as they played tag, bean bag toss, raced each other and played with their puppy’s they owned. Rex walked through the biome before finding a nice house that said “free to own” and Rex decided to claim the free house. I mean wouldn’t you if you saw it was free? So, Rex opened the door and the place was huge. It had a nice teal window and huge king size bed with extra cover and blankets folded on a tall shelf by the bed. On the top of the shelf, there was a lamp which was off, since the room already shined bright. Then as he explored the house, he saw a huge kitchen along with a huge living room. Then the bathroom, which as you can guess was also huge. Rex loved the place as he layed on his bed and watched the first program that broadcasted on there. It was a looney tunes cartoon and Rex just smiled and was happy to finally find a place to live for the first time in 6 months that he could call home. Rex found a new home in the biome of Shrooville and found everuday to be a new opportunity filled with endless possibilities. This is the first time Rex felt alive in months. As 2 years passed, Rex was now a delivery driver and delivered fruits and vegetables to the residents of Shrooville. Rex ended up dating the beautiful woman at the entrance of Shrooville, Mia. Rex and Mia both lived their lives together as Rex delivered and Mia helped him process orders and oversee what he did. They both worked well together and continued to live their lives together. After work, Rex stood outside and just admired the view. The beautiful Sunny view of Shrooville and the tall buildings and colorful trees and flowers. Rex looked and Mia joined him outside and they both stared at the beautiful view as more people entered into the biome. The biome grew and grew as years passed and the population grew from hundreds to thousands and more houses were built along the way, so residents could be housed. Some houses fit 1-2, some fit 3-4 and the largest ones could fit up to 12. So there were many places to go to and some even lived in their RV’s because they felt happy there. But all was well for Rex now as he became happy in his new life in Shrooville along with his beautiful girlfriend and job he loved in a now large and astounding Shrooville!! So, what are you waiting on? Come to Shrooville now and begin your new chapter in life. There are many possibilities in this biome where you’ll see that beauty is of a gem.

Sustainability, ESG and climate change concerns are reshaping investment
Climate change is impacting businesses and societies around the world, making climate risk and sustainability a top priority for companies in all industries. Climate risk is transforming markets and redesigning capital allocation, investments, and growth strategies. Sustainability transactions more than tripled in value in 2021 to $164 billion (Refinitiv). Based on market analysis and trends observed over the last 5 years, the transition to “green growth” represents an historic investment opportunity which in our opinion will be bigger that the internet boom of 1990s. We believe that at least $5 trillion annually will be invested in sustainability by 2025. This represents the largest capital reallocation in history. At the same time, approximately $12 trillion worth of assets will have to be retired or phased out to comply with new ESG and carbon reduction regulations.

5 Facts About The Iceberg Alley
It's a supernatural experience to stand on a rocky shore and watch a gigantic iceberg drift slowly. The huge ice blocks date back about 10,000 years. This is exactly what locals and visitors along Iceberg Alley experience each year between late April and early June. The latest projections, by a team including Professor Grant Bigg and Jennifer Ross, predict an average iceberg year. WERR's control system model predicts a year of the average iceberg from 413±111 icebergs to 48°N by August 2022.

How Green Are Plastic and Wire Coat Hangers?
It’s not pleasant to hear, but the fact of the matter is that the majority of the clothes Americans are wearing nowadays are being imported mostly from countries located overseas. Each one of these items of clothing arrives in the United States on some type of coat hanger, usually plastic or wire. This holds true even for baby hangers, used for baby clothes which are almost always made of plastic. These then get dumped in landfills, where they are left to leak toxins such as bisphanol-A and benzene right into the groundwater.

Through the Decades of Time
Each decade is different. I remember the erra of the 1960's I was born into. The cold war & airplanes. A white pontiac grand prix that had bright orange stickers of fighter jets in the rear window with a bumper sticker that read; Fighter pilots do it better. Traveling through miles of winding roads each summer vacation underneath the shield of that time. When the world seemed densly populated within the fields of rolling wheat and sub degree below zero winters. Then I traveled out of the cold and into the warmth of the middle east. The snowglobe of the 1960's broke and another time period was born. The 1970's became like a revolving disco ball with its tiny mirror fragments and songs that played at dances. With city sounds of street venders, fairy boats gliding on Ageon waves under a spectacular sunset. It felt like warm Turkish bread, or Ekmek. Fifty years later, it all seemed like a dream. The parents that were there are now asleep in their graves, leaving me alone in the strange time period as i recide above the hammering of a horrible machine. Day in and day out the machine, much like the pink floyd song that i never imagined would become my reality. I believe in aliens and hope that their is a race out there that can help us rid of the other ugly machines, machines of war that i grew up around. I also believe in a ghost planet that is holographically connected to the earth. Instead of helping us, it destroys us, and haunts the news media of death and destruction. I escape by playing games, such as the one where i found a deserted planet with a astroid grinding machine. I then grinded up the rock for rocket fuel. This made me consider that the underground machine could be made of a astroid, it feels like a borg cube that no one speaks or talks about. Except one movie about a bomb train in a Pacific island cave. This made me consider that is why no one talks about it, the thing could be surrounded by bombs, as the movie plot was to blow up the entire United States. How anyone could keep a pet Hawk in a cave ? I wonder if the children of tomorrow will play in caves, of ice or crystal formations. Will they be safe of the prying of the Dooms day watchers on the hidden world ? I guess it will take a cetain hero to expose the truth. The truth of todays millinium that exceds the serinity of the past one. There was one man who was helping me in the film world, a Greek actor that seemed to live in his films as if his afterlife was in his films, he built a rocket with the initials PL & SM. He was showing me that he was somehow related to my father, as he resembled a brother like appearance. He could have been, yet he too sadly passed away in the Greek Cinema. I was told to take my satellite down because the hammering shook the dish and it could fall. I lost contact with the channel, yet still wonder how actors in films can make new movies. I also wonder about robots and androids, and if their is a secret race of them being manufactured underground. I wonder if I will get some android parts and if medical science will create warehouses of oxygen chambers for improved health. This is my idea. This would be a nice time to go for a ride in a spacecraft, if only i had one. If only I had a library to time travel through, back through the decades of lost time.
