Human Evolution and Climate Change. Top Story - June 2024.
The Question An oft asked question relates to how humans and every other species on the planet will or will not adapt to the new environmental conditions that climate change will quite probably (and arguably already has) impose across much of the globe. For other species the answer is fairly obvious, they will either adapt or they will perish. As has been the case throughout all of earth’s history, evolution through natural selection requires that those with the traits that are best adapted to reproduce will do so and so pass them on, especially when pressed by changes in the environment. Many argue that the changes we are seeing or will soon see as a result of climate change are occurring too rapidly for many species to adapt. In essence that evolution cannot keep up with the pace of change. Mutations simply cannot occur frequently enough to supply a wide enough variety of phenotypes of different varieties to allow for at least one that can survive the new conditions any given species may find itself in. Rapid changes are the hardest for the longest lived (excluding microorganisms), and slowest reproducing creatures to deal with, and they face the greatest threat of massive population decrease or even extinction. I happen to think that adaptation can happen much faster than is typically believed, but am not naïve enough to think that even a greatly accelerated adaptation or mutation process will be enough to save all or even most animal species from the threat of habitat loss or change brought about by global warming.

While we are wide awake in the dead quiet of the night, our thoughts are likely to stray to the morbid consideration of what taking those steps into an afterlife might one day feel like. Near-death experiences and scientific inquiring irresistibly leave us with the mystery and the concept of the true nature of death is still elusive. In this article, we venture into the beautiful world of dying, where we extract what science says about the feelings, experiences, and biological developments that we go through just before we exit the planet.

The old kingdom Agartha
The old kingdom Agartha Agartha is not a myth or a fantasy but a reality hidden from us for centuries. The theory, known as the Hollow Earth Theory, states that the Earth is not a solid sphere but a hollow one with a vast cavity inside. In this cavity, a small sun illuminates the inner world, creating a lush, livable environment on the flip side of the Earth's surface.
