Chemtrails Are Real And Called "Stratospheric Aerosol Injection" - Used For Depopulation Under The Guise of Combatting Chicken Little "Climate Change", Overpopulation And Financial Burden Of Governments By Seniors

By David William Jedell Updated June 19, 2025
No Direct Evidence of Global Warming - Most climate change scientists do not agree that global warming is happening
"Whether most scientists outside climatology believe that global warming is happening is less relevant than whether the climatologists do. A letter signed by over 50 leading members of the American Meteorological Society warned about the policies promoted by environmental pressure groups. “The policy initiatives derive from highly uncertain scientific theories. They are based on the unsupported assumption that catastrophic global warming follows from the burning of fossil fuel and requires immediate action. We do not agree.”2 Those who have signed the letter represent the overwhelming majority of climate change scientists in the United States, of whom there are about 60. McMichael and Haines quote the 1995 report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which is widely believed to “prove” that climate change induced by humans has occurred.3 The original draft document did not say this. What happened was that the policymakers’ summary (which became the “take home message” for politicians) altered the conclusions of the scientists. This led Dr Frederick Seitz, former head of the United States National Academy of Sciences, to write, “In more than sixty years as a member of the American scientific community ... I have never witnessed a more disturbing corruption of the peer-review process than the events that led to this IPCC report.”
"Policymaking should be guided by proved fact, not speculation. Most members of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change believe that current climate models do not accurately portray the atmosphere-ocean system. Measurements made by means of satellites show no global warming but a cooling of 0.13°C between 1979 and 1994.5 Furthermore, since the theory of global warming assumes maximum warming at the poles, why have average temperatures in the Arctic dropped by 0.88°C over the past 50 years?"

Stratospheric aerosol injection, or SAI, involves dispersing microscopic particles between 7 and 30 miles high in the atmosphere.
Why are aerosols bad?
Overview
Aerosols and Climate – Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Aerosols are harmful because they impact both human health and the environment. They contribute to poor air quality, leading to respiratory and other health problems, and can also affect climate patterns. Additionally, some aerosols contain chemicals that damage the ozone layer or contribute to acid rain.
If the injected sulphate aerosols are not uniform throughout the atmosphere, whether due to inadequate placement, due to non-uniform mixing by winds, or due to differential removal by wet deposition, some regions of the earth could experience more extreme drought and other regions could potentially experience floods.
Geoengineering interventions are complex and could have unforeseen negative impacts on the environment and human populations.
The "stratospheric aerosol particle index" generally refers to a measure of the concentration and properties of tiny particles, both solid and liquid, suspended in the stratosphere. These particles, often sulfate aerosols from volcanic eruptions, influence Earth's climate by reflecting sunlight and affecting atmospheric chemistry. The "index" can refer to various metrics used to quantify these particles, such as their size distribution, extinction coefficients, or backscatter ratios.
Key aspects of the stratospheric aerosol particle index:
Composition:
Stratospheric aerosols are primarily composed of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and water, forming droplets. Size Distribution:
The size of these particles is crucial, as it affects their ability to scatter sunlight and interact with other atmospheric components.
Impacts:
These aerosols can purportedly cool the planet by reflecting sunlight, but also influence ozone depletion and potentially alter precipitation patterns.
Measurement:
Various techniques are used to measure stratospheric aerosols, including satellite-based instruments (like SAGE) and lidar systems.
Specific indices and parameters:
Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD):
AOD is a measure of how much sunlight is blocked by aerosols at a given wavelength.
Extinction Coefficient:
This parameter quantifies the amount of light absorbed and scattered by aerosols per unit distance.
Backscatter Ratio:
Lidar systems measure the ratio of backscattered light from aerosols to backscattered light from air molecules.
Effective Radius:
This parameter represents the average size of aerosol particles.
Particle Number Density:
This indicates the concentration of aerosol particles per unit volume of air.
In the context of climate modeling and geoengineering:
Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI):
This purported geoengineering technique involves releasing aerosols into the stratosphere to reflect sunlight. (These particles spread out over the entire sky.)
Is stratospheric aerosol injection harmful to humans?
AI Overview
Yes, stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is harmful to humans, although the exact extent of the harm is still being researched. SAI involves injecting aerosols into the stratosphere to reflect sunlight and cool the planet. While this might help mitigate some climate change impacts, there are concerns about potential negative consequences, including:
Aerosol inhalation:
The injected aerosols could be inhaled by humans, potentially causing respiratory problems or other health issues.
Unintended climate effects:
SAI could disrupt global weather patterns, leading to reduced rainfall, drought, or even increased extreme weather events.
What is aerosol index?
Aerosol index (AI) is a measurement related to Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) that indicates an increased concentration of tiny particles called aerosols suspended in the atmosphere. In general, a lower AI value indicates clearer skies due to a lower concentration of aerosols.
What effects do aerosols have on the human body?
AI Overview
Aerosols, particularly fine particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), have significant negative effects on human health, including respiratory and cardiovascular issues. Inhaled aerosols can penetrate deep into the lungs, potentially causing inflammation, irritation, and damage, leading to both short-term and long-term health problems.
Respiratory Effects:
Asthma and Bronchitis:
Aerosols can trigger or worsen these conditions, causing inflammation and narrowing of airways.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD):
Chronic exposure to aerosols can contribute to the development and progression of COPD.
Lung Cancer:
Long-term exposure to certain aerosols, particularly those containing toxic substances, may increase the risk of lung cancer.
Reduced Lung Function:
Aerosols can impair the lungs' ability to effectively exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Increased Respiratory Symptoms:
Aerosols can cause coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and other respiratory symptoms.
Cardiovascular Effects:
Cardiovascular Disease:
Exposure to aerosols, especially PM2.5, has been linked to an increased risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular problems. Arteriosclerosis:
Aerosols may contribute to the buildup of plaque in arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease.
Other Health Effects:
Infectious and Allergic Reactions:
Some aerosols, particularly bioaerosols, can cause infections and allergic reactions.
Toxicological Effects:
Certain aerosols contain toxic substances that can have harmful effects on various organs and systems in the body.
Premature Death:
Exposure to aerosols has been associated with increased mortality rates, particularly in individuals with pre-existing heart or lung conditions.
Factors Influencing Aerosol Impact:
Particle Size:
Smaller particles, such as PM2.5, pose the greatest risk as they can penetrate deeper into the lungs and even enter the bloodstream.
Exposure Duration:
Both short-term and long-term exposures to aerosols can have health impacts, but chronic exposure is associated with more severe outcomes.
Environmental and Individual Factors:
The impact of aerosols can vary based on environmental conditions (e.g., urban vs. rural) and individual factors (e.g., age, pre-existing conditions).
How long do aerosols stay in the air?
AI Overview
How is stratospheric aerosol removed?
Aerosols are removed from the atmosphere by natural processes on timescales of a few days in the troposphere and a few years in the stratosphere. An SRM strategy like peak-shaving would require ongoing deployment until such time that the atmospheric concentrations of GHGs are sufficiently reduced.

2025 Bilderberg Conference
A Bilderberg Group press release listed 121 participants from 23 countries. Established in 1954 by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, Bilderberg conferences (or meetings) are an annual private gathering of the European and North American political and business elite. Events are attended by between 120 and 150 people each year invited by the Bilderberg Group's steering committee; including prominent politicians, CEOs, national security experts, academics and journalists. Bilderberg conferences operate under the Chatham House Rule, meaning that participants are sworn to secrecy and cannot disclose the identity or affiliation of any particular speaker. As a result, media are not invited and delegates rarely speak about what was discussed.

Shorter Life Expectancy Reduces Projected Lifetime Benefits
The increase in average life expectancy for older adults in the United States contributes to challenges for retirement planning by the government, employers, and individuals. Social Security retirement benefits and traditional defined benefit (DB) pension plans, both key sources of retirement income that promise lifetime benefits, are now required to make payments to retirees for an increasing number of years. The GAO compared projected benefits based on shorter or longer life expectancy with projected benefits based on average life expectancy, and found that shorter-than-average life expectancy reduced their projected lifetime benefits by as much as 11 to 14 percent.

United Nations' World Population Plan of Action
Individual reproductive behaviour and the needs and aspirations of society should be reconciled. The desire of couples to achieve large families is believed to result in excessive national population growth rates and Governments are explicitly attempting to reduce those rates by implementing specific policy measures.

World Economic Forum - David Attenborough: The planet can’t cope with overpopulation
On the WEF website, David Attenborough notes (an unscientific presumption): “One of the reasons population has increased as fast as it has, is that people like me are living longer than we did, so there are more and more people just because the expectancy of life has increased.” Attenborough, whose 2015 interview by Barack Obama about climate change was screened in more than 50 countries, has contributed a huge amount to shaping our views on environmental issues. As UN Head of Environment Erik Solheim says, “few people have inspired action for the planet” like him. Continued population growth increases pressure on the planet’s limited resources - and impact on the environment. In an interview for BBC Newsnight, the 92-year-old British broadcaster said: “It is very alarming at the rate we’re going, and although people will say, ‘In the long run, we are going to stabilize’, they’re going to stabilize - as far as I can see - at a rather higher level than the Earth can really accommodate.”

Portable Optical Particle Spectrometer (POPS)
The Portable Optical Particle Spectrometer (POPS) was developed at the NOAA Chemical Sciences Laboratory (CSL) by Dr. Ru-Shan Gao and his team. The instrument is a robust, small, lightweight, low-power consumption, and relatively low-cost research grade instrument that reports particle size and number concentration of aerosols with diameters between 140 nm and 2.5 µm. This size range captures the bulk of accumulation mode aerosols, which can efficiently scatter light and often outnumber larger aerosols, thereby influencing radiative forcing and Earth's radiation budget.

Official documents link these persistent trails to a weather modification technology called solar geoengineering by stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) sprays are mainly composed of metallic particles (Al, Ba, Sr, Fe, nanoparticles) and sulfur, which considerably increase air, soil and water pollution. Many of the current environmental and health problems are consistent with those described in the literature on solar geoengineering by SAI if this method was employed. For example, metal particles used are well known environmental contaminants, cardiorespiratory diseases and neurodegenerative diseases. The observations (whiter skies, less solar power) also correspond to the same risks as those described in the solar geoengineering works. Patents show that this weather modification technology has been known and mastered for a long time. In addition, some scientific papers as well as policy documents suggest that solar geoengineering by SAI has been used for many years.

Molecular mechanisms of aluminum neurotoxicity: Update on adverse effects
Recent studies have demonstrated that the brain may be considered as the target for Al toxicity (Exley, 2014), resulting in neurodegenerative (Exley, 2013; Shaw et al., 2014) and neurodevelopmental disorders (Blaylock, 2012). Recent detailed studies by Exley and the coauthors have highlighted the association between brain Al accumulation and neurological disorders including Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis and autism spectrum disorder (Exley and Clarkson, 2020; Mirza et al., 2017; Mold et al., 2018). Speciation analysis using hyphenated techniques demonstrated that Al exposure induces a specific bioligand response in Al-exposed neuronal cells (Połeć-Pawlak et al., 2004).

Aluminum in neurological disease – a 36 year multicenter study
Aluminum is a ubiquitous neurotoxin highly enriched in our biosphere, and has been implicated in the etiology and pathology of multiple neurological diseases that involve inflammatory neural degeneration, behavioral impairment and cognitive decline. Over the last 36 years our group has analyzed the aluminum content of the temporal lobe neocortex of 511 high quality coded human brain samples from 18 diverse neurological and neurodegenerative disorders, including 2 groups of age-matched controls. Brodmann anatomical areas including the inferior, medial and superior temporal gyrus (A20-A22) were selected for analysis: (i) because of their essential functions in massive neural information processing operations including cognition and memory formation; and (ii) because subareas of these anatomical regions are unique to humans and are amongst the earliest areas affected by progressive neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

How Unicorns and Rainbows Are Used for Brainwashing Children and Parents Into LGBT, Pedophilia, Mutilation and Sterilization: Seriously, No Joke

By David William Jedell Updated June 20, 2025
Contorted Logic for an Underdeveloped Snowflake
"As a child, if you can identify with an imaginary creature and you are told you can make it 'real' if you want to in your imagination, and it becomes real, YOU can identify as other imaginary things. All you have to do is want to. The rainbow is beautifly colored with DIVERSE colors. Thus, a rainbow MUST be good, and therefore DIVERSITY of everything is good. You, child, haven't been happy. It just might be that when you were born, the doctor mislabeled your GENDER. If you can imagine another gender then you could be that gender, and it's good because diversity is good. Unicorns are happy and cute so by identifying as an image you will be good, happy and cute."
The unicorn has often come up as the animal representing the LGBT+ community. Pride flags were marketed along with unicorn horns that made their way to Pride Parades across the world. Single-horned headbands were all the rage! IT IS THE BEGINNING OF INDOCTRINATION INTO GENDER DYSPHORIA AND PUBERTY BLOCKER/BODY-MUTILATION INSANITY.
Thousands of preteens and teens are being duped into believing that “gender affirming care,” a euphemism for sterilizing hormones and surgeries, will alleviate their mental suffering. Instead, it only increases it. And our children are falling victim to the aggressive pro-transition culture in K-12 school and on social media. Although the media ignore them, many detransitioners are speaking out about the abuse they endured by clinicians who prioritize ideology over health and safety. One detransitioner said, “I have this intense rage in me over the harm that was done to me.” She calls her treatment a “collaborative idiocy” between her parents, therapists and doctors. At the age of 14, she was given testosterone injections and a mastectomy, neither of which helped her mental distress. Then, she began experiencing heart problems due to the medical interventions, but was offered no help. Many detransitioners like Julie complain that they were rushed through experimental procedures when all they needed was nothing or at worst cognitive therapy and time to grow out of their confusion. Often times, adults aren’t truly listening to and helping children, but imposing their own political beliefs. There is no way to have honest, truthful conversations about how to best treat gender dysphoric children without acknowledging these stories. The psychopathic mutilators, however, prefers to deny reality when it doesn’t serve their narrative. This is why the stories of hundreds of detransitioners remain in the dark and discussions surrounding “gender affirming care” remain dishonest.
This is nothing less than child abuse. Children whose brains are still developing are not mature enough to make permanent, life-changing decisions about their bodies. The majority of people with "gender dysphoria" OR SIMPLE CHANGES OF PUBERTY WE ALL WENT THROUGH end up re-identifying with their biological gender and regretting the “gender affirming care” they received.
Cloe Cole speaks to Congress of the horrors she wernt through starting at 11 years old when mutilated and wants to de-transition back to a girl but it's impossible. Video of Congressional Testimony Under Oath:
https://youtu.be/DSGgR3W_jjg
THE CULT WAS BORN OUT OF PEDOPHILIA THIS IS WHY IT IS SO DANGEROUS NOW TO CHILDREN BEING LGBTQ INDOCTRINATED AND TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE CHILD'S INGNORANT, UNTHINKING "WHAT IS MEANT TO BE," PARENTS!!! This CULT has some disturbing justifications for pedophilia. Some claim it’s just another “sexual orientation” that deserves to be added to the LGBTQ+ spectrum. Others claim that it’s a harmless source of pleasure. And yet others use a historical justification — they point to the Ancient CULT, where sexual relationships between young men and older men were highly idealized. And yes, it’s true that such relationships were/are extremely common. “Pederasty” translates to “love of boys;” they were male prostitutes, depicted on vases as young, handsome, naked slave boys often serving reclining masters. They did not recline alongside the more mature attendees (unless in the process of pleasuring them). The "active" partner in the pederastic relationship was a man in his twenties or thirties. He had started to use boys for sex when he himself was an older adolescent. Though the infatuations of pederasty began to look silly as the man advanced in age, some men must have continued to use boys well into their mature and later years. The boy himself was thought to be at the peak of his attractiveness between the ages of 12 and 16, though he might have been used by the man when he was even younger. The boy remained beautiful so long as his body seemed sexually immature. Once he passed through puberty and began to grow bodily hair, the man usually would replace him with a younger child.
It takes a culture of entitlement and a nation of compliant, willfully ignorant, politically divided citizens to provide the foundations of tyranny.
"The unicorn has also done its bit for the LGBT community in the last century... Rainbows and unicorns are so intrinsically linked (the association is also a Victorian invention) that, unsurprisingly, the magic creature started to appear on T-shirts and banners at Gay Pride around the world, with slogans such as 'Gender is Imaginary' or 'Totally Straight' emblazoned under sparkling rainbow unicorns." LGBTQ+ Symbols
In the past, and currently in some countries to this day, LGBTQ+ people came up with many covert ways such as items of clothing, accessories, slang, styles, or small tattoos that could easily be covered up to signal to each other that they were part of the gay community. An example of common gender symbols today include astrological signs from ancient Roman times, such as the pointed Mars symbol representing males and the Venus symbol with the cross representing females.
Throughout history, the LGBTQ+ community has adopted symbols, flags, and colors for self-identification to demonstrate unity, pride, shared values, and allegiance to one another. These signs and symbols communicate ideas, concepts, and identities within LGBTQ+ communities and everyday mainstream culture.

Apparent Arson-Caused Wildfire Smoke and Heat Affecting Millions of Americans. Virtually Proven Here that Wildfires are Not Caused by Climate Change, but Wildfires Actually Cause Hot Weather that Heats the Earth's Atmosphere

By David William Jedell Updated June 20, 2025
Fable : Chicken Little Fictional Video for Your Entertainment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCBIAmtaKuA
Virtual Proof: Arson (and a small amount of negligent human cause) is to blame
What is the ignition temperature of plant matter? 450 Fahrenheit!!! Average ignition temperatures were species dependent, ranging from 227°C to 453°C, with a large degree of scatter from leaf to leaf. Correlations of time to ignition and ignition temperature were made, but showed only a weak dependence on leaf thickness and almost no dependence on mass of moisture in the leaf. https://research.fs.usda.gov/treesearch/30610
See also, https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GOVPUB-C13-2aca434d0a907ff2aff50e4308d18e98/pdf/GOVPUB-C13-2aca434d0a907ff2aff50e4308d18e98.pdf
Hypothetical I.Q. Test: You are in your living room and it's getting very hot. You keep putting more logs on the active fireplace. Q: Did the living room heat cause the fire in the fireplace, or did the fireplace heat up the living room?
Hypothetical Answer: Chicken Little Climate Change DEFINITELY DOES NOT COMPLETELY CAUSE WILDFIRES!!! On the contrary, wildfires cause the atmosphere to heat up and produces billions of tons of CO2 and Toxic Smoke and Particulates. (Opinion: Virtually a Reversal of Cause and Effect)
Arson is the criminal act of deliberately or maliciously setting fire to property including public lands with the intent to damage or defraud. Devices and “hot sets” are commonly used to ignite fires. Arson is a felony, punishable by imprisonment of one year or more and/or a fine. A suspect found guilty of arson may also be responsible for all costs associated with the suppression, rehabilitation of land, and damages incurred by the wildfire he/she set. Arson fires may account for over 20% of all human-caused wildland fires, and up to 70% or more fires in some jurisdictions. The actual number is unclear as arsons fires may not be recognized as such and be classified as another cause, undetermined, or unknown for some time before a pattern develops. https://www.nifc.gov/fire-information/fire-prevention-education-mitigation/wildfire-investigation#arson

Remotely Piloted Aircraft Become Mainstay of Wildland Firefightin. Aug. 7, 2018 | By Air Force Senior Airman Crystal Housman, California National Guard. Five years after a proof-of-concept mission, the MQ-9 Reaper drone has developed into a key asset in California’s fight against wildfires, including the Carr and Mendocino Complex Fires, which are currently burning in Northern California. https://www.defense.gov/News/News-Stories/Article/Article/1595204/
No Life on Earth Without Trees
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, including trees, use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen as a byproduct while producing the sugars they need to grow, essentially allowing them to "create" themselves and the oxygen we breathe in the atmosphere; this process is vital for life on Earth as we know it. Leaves pull in carbon dioxide and water and use the energy of the sun to convert this into chemical compounds such as sugars that feed the tree. But as a by-product of that chemical reaction oxygen is produced and released by the tree. Trees also store carbon dioxide in their fibers. According to the Arbor Day Foundation, in a year ONE mature tree will absorb more than 48 pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen in exchange. https://www.usda.gov/media/blog/2015/03/17/power-one-tree-very-air-we-breathe#:~:text=Through%20a%20process%20called%20photosynthesis,and%20released%20by%20the%20tree.
Arson is the leading cause of fire in the United States. Each year, an estimated 267,000 fires are attributed to arson, which result in $1.4 billion in property loss and cause over 2,000 injuries and 475 deaths. 2 As a result, arson prevention and investigation have become the focus of increased attention within the federal government, the fire service, and the criminal justice system. https://apps.usfa.fema.gov/downloads/pdf/statistics/v1i8-508.pdf

NASA artfully reveals that the atmospheric carbon dioxide has increased, without pointing to the burning of fossil fuels; only "human activity." "Most of the warming occurred in the past 40 years, with the seven most recent years being the warmest. The years 2016 and 2020 are tied for the warmest year on record". Thus they claim that "The Evidence for Rapid Climate Change Is Compelling." Not a word is mentioned about manmade wildfires started by arson between 2016 and 2020, and continuing to this day. Clearly this is a deliberate CYA con job!!! https://science.nasa.gov/climate-change/evidence/
The carbon cycle is the process through which carbon is cycled through the air, ground, plants, animals, and fossil fuels. People and animals inhale oxygen from the air and exhale carbon dioxide (CO2), while plants absorb CO2 for photosynthesis and emit oxygen back into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is also exchanged between the atmosphere and the oceans. This natural system of processes keeps CO2 levels in the atmosphere stable over time. https://netl.doe.gov/carbon-management/carbon-storage/faqs/carbon-dioxide-101
According to the National Park Service, human-caused wildfires account for around 80 to 90 percent of all reported wildfires. https://www.greenmatters.com/p/what-causes-wildfires Wildfires can affect the physical, chemical, and biological quality of streams, rivers, lakes and reservoirs. These changes are noticeable for years and even decades after a fire. The first and greatest impact of wildfires is a significant increase in storm water runoff. With the loss of vegetation during a wildfire, the soil becomes hydrophobic (tending to repel or failing to mix with water). Under normal conditions, plant life slows precipitation down once it hits the landscape and lets it gradually seep into the ground. After a fire, foliage-free soil doesn’t absorb water easily. These burn scars increase runoff and provide a pathway for the transport of debris and sediment to rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations from burned foliage run into the water and lead to algal blooms resulting in fluctuations in oxygen or oxygen depletion in downstream waterbodies. Lastly, post-fire flash floods introduce high levels of heavy metals from ash, soils, and geologic sources into waterways. Wildfires can compromise water quality both during active burning, and for months and years after the fire has been contained. https://deq.utah.gov/communication/news/wildfires-impact-on-our-environment#:~:text=Wildfires%20can%20affect%20the%20physical,significant%20increase%20in%20stormwater%20runoff.
Wildfire smoke is a mixture of hazardous air pollutants, such PM2.5, NO2, ozone, aromatic hydrocarbons, or lead. In addition to contaminating the air with toxic pollutants, wildfires also simultaneously impact the weather by releasing large quantities of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. https://www.who.int/health-topics/wildfires#tab=tab_1 Beyond the human and societal impacts, wildfires also affect the Earth's weather. Forests in particular store large amounts of carbon. When they burn, they immediately release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which in turn contributes to climate change. https://www.epa.gov/climate-indicators/climate-change-indicators-wildfires#:~:text=Beyond%20the%20human%20and%20societal,turn%20contributes%20to%20climate%20change.
A growing body of scientific evidence links wildfire smoke exposure to various health effects. There is evidence of an increase in the risk of both cardiovascular and respiratory-related effects in response to wildfire smoke exposure, particularly as the intensity of wildfire smoke increases. https://www.epa.gov/wildfire-smoke-course/why-wildfire-smoke-health-concern
Exposure to smoke can also increase your risk for long-term (chronic) health effects. People who live in areas with higher fine particulate air pollution and those who breathe air containing fine particles over long periods have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Frequent exposure to smoke even for brief periods can also increase your risk for long-term health effects https://www.health.ny.gov/environmental/outdoors/air/smoke_from_fire.htm#:~:text=Inhaling%20smoke%20for%20a%20short,have%20changes%20in%20heart%20function.
Not only are wildfires happening every summer, but they’re also happening multiple times every summer. These kinds of repeated exposure scenarios are what may lead to diseases like cancer. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signaling pathway: Dysfunction of this pathway is one of the main cascading events that leads to the development and progression of lymphoma. https://health.ucdavis.edu/news/headlines/exploring-the-link-between-wildfire-smoke-and-cancer-risk/2022/08
Higher levels of a type of air pollution called PM2.5 were linked to a higher number of dementia cases developing over time. The strongest links between pollution and dementia were seen for PM2.5 from agriculture and wildfires. Reducing such exposures might help lower the incidence of dementia. https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/air-pollution-linked-dementia-cases#:~:text=Higher%20levels%20of%20a%20type,lower%20the%20incidence%20of%20dementia.

NYC Trump Trial Contrary to Legal Precedents

By David William Jedell, Attorney at Law April 19, 2024
The Bragg case must be dismissed as beyond the Statute of Limitations.
Statute of Limitation for a Felony
No crime is alleged after 2017 and the indictment is dated April 4, 2023, over 6 years later. See, Indictment, https://www.npr.org/2023/04/04/1167708172/trump-charges-hush-money-new-york-indictment. Statute of Limitation for a Felony under NY Law: For felony offenses other than A felonies listed in § 30.10(2)(a), the statute of limitation requires that the “prosecution for any other felony must be commenced within five years after the commission thereof…” See § 30.10(2)(b). "Penal Law § 175.10 Falsifying business records in the first degree: A person is guilty of falsifying business records in the first degree when he commits the crime of falsifying business records in the second degree, and when his intent to defraud includes an intent to commit another crime or to aid or conceal the commission thereof. Falsifying business records in the first degree is a class E felony."
Staute of Limitations for a Misdemeanor
Under New York law, CPL § 30.10(2)(a), a “prosecution for a misdemeanor must be commenced within two years after the commission thereof.” "A person is guilty of falsifying business records in the second degree when, with intent to defraud, he: 1. Makes or causes a false entry in the business records of an enterprise; or 2. Alters, erases, obliterates, deletes, removes or destroys a true entry in the business records of an enterprise; or 3. Omits to make a true entry in the business records of an enterprise in violation of a duty to do so which he knows to be imposed upon him by law or by the nature of his position; or 4. Prevents the making of a true entry or causes the omission thereof in the business records of an enterprise.
Falsifying business records in the second degree is a class A misdemeanor." See, https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/laws/PEN/175.05 Cuomo COVID-19 Executive Order: any statute of limitations that began to run and did not expire prior to March 20, 2020 will have 228 days added on to it. CPL 30.10(3)(b)…against a public servant, or any other person acting in concert with such public servant at any time during such public servant's service in such office or within five years after the termination of such service; However, the extra 5 years does not apply because PUBLIC SERVANT means any public officer or employee of the state or of any political subdivision thereof or of any governmental instrumentality within the state, or any person exercising the functions of any such public officer or employee. PL 195.00. There has never been a SCOTUS decision holding that a statute of limitations on a state crime is tolled by the term of the President. See, https://www.uclalawreview.org/evaluating-a-proposed-presidential-reform-tolling-statutes-of-limitations/
CPLR 207: Statute of limitations not tolled for period of absence from state when personal jurisdiction was obtainable over defendant through expedient service.
CPLR 207 provides that if, after a cause of action has accrued against a person, he departs from the state and remains continuously absent therefrom for four months or more, the period of his absence is not a part of the time within which the action must be commenced. The plaintiff cannot rely on a CPLR 207 toll, however, if personal jurisdiction could have been obtained despite the defendant's absence from the state.' In Goodemote v. McClain," the defendant left New York for a fourteen-month period eighteen months after she was involved in a New York automobile accident. The Appellate Division, Fourth Department, unanimously held that the statute of limitations was not tolled for the period of her absence from the state because the plaintiff could have obtained personal jurisdiction over the defendant at any time by obtaining an ex parte court order for expedient service under CPLR 308(5). Since the broad discretionary reach of CPLR 308(5) may be utilized whenever there is a jurisdictional basis, this decision should severely curtail the instances of tolls for absence under CPLR 207. See, https://scholarship.law.stjohns.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?referer=&httpsredir=1&article=2990&context=lawreview
Judicial Bias
Further, Judge Juan Merchan appears to be directly biased against Trump and Republicans as he himself allegedly supported an organization that expressly states it is against both, on its website. “During the 2020 United States presidential election, Judge Juan Merchan supported Joe Biden the Democratic candidate and the Democratic Party, donating 35 dollars as a contribution to Democrats distributed as follows, $15 earmarked for the Biden campaign, $10 earmarked for Progressive Turnout Project and $10 for Stop Republicans, a subsidiary of the previous. See, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Merchan As stated on its website, “Stop Republicans, an accountability campaign of Progressive Turnout Project, is a grassroots-funded effort dedicated to resisting the Republican Party and Donald Trump’s radical right-wing legacy.” See, https://www.turnoutpac.org/stop-republicans/
“Clearly, a judge who cannot be impartial when a particular attorney appears before the judge must disqualify him/herself, and remittal is not available (see 22 NYCRR 100.3[E][1][a][i]; 100.3[F]). However, even when a judge’s disqualification is not mandated by either Judiciary Law §14 or the specific circumstances described in §100.3(E)(1)(a)-(e) of the Rules and the judge believes that he/she can be impartial, if the judge’s impartiality might reasonably be questioned by others, he/she must nonetheless disqualify him/herself, but, in such circumstances, the disqualification is subject to remittal (see 22 NYCRR 100.3[E][1]). Whether a judge’s friendship with an attorney causes a judge’s impartiality reasonably to be questioned depends on the facts of each case.” See, https://www.nycourts.gov/ipjudicialethicsopinions/11-125.htm
Right to a Public Trial
Furthermore, another issue is that Judge Merchan allegedly "frequently use[d] email to communicate with Trump’s defense lawyers and the prosecutors from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office. That’s led to a ballooning set of off-the-book messages that are shielded from the public." See, "How large parts of Trump’s trial are playing out in the shadows," See, https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/21/trump-trial-shadows-court-cases-00153506?cid=apn
This may violate the Fifth and Sixth Amendments which, among other things, state "No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury,... nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law..."; See, https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-5/ ; and "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a . . . public trial." See, https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/sixth_amendment#:~:text=The%20Sixth%20Amendment%20guarantees%20the,charges%20and%20evidence%20against%20you.
Legal Insufficiency of the Indictment and Violation of Due Process
The following illustrates the insufficiency of the Actual Indictment: (See, Indictment, https://www.npr.org/2023/04/04/1167708172/trump-charges-hush-money-new-york-indictment.)
Regarding Judge Merchan's alleged jury instruction that "election interference is the (uncharged) crime Trump was covering up" and allegedly that "the case is to be referred to as the election interference case": ("The indictment may incorporate the words of the statute to set forth the offense, but the statutory language '"must be accompanied with such a statement of the facts and circumstances as will inform the accused of the specific offense, coming under the general description, with which he is charged."'") (quoting Hamling, 418 U.S. at 117-18 (quoting United States v. Hess, 124 U.S. 483, 487 (1888))); cf. United States v. Nance, 533 F.2d 699, 702 (D.C. Cir. 1976) (noting with approval mail fraud count that specifies misrepresentations); United States v. Curtis, 506 F.2d 985, 990 (10th Cir. 1974) (citations omitted) (dismissing mail fraud indictment that excludes false pretenses). Other uncharged purported crimes that allegedly have been allowed to be argued by the prosecution are: 1. Federal Campaign Finance Crimes; 2. State Campaign Finance Crimes; 3. Conspiracy to promote or prevent an election; 4. A catch-all alternative; and a Catch-and-Kill Scheme. https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/04/22/trump-hush-money-criminal-trial/3-catch-and-kill-deals-00153622
The prosecution attempted to remedy the Catch-an-Kill defect in his Statement of Facts dated April 4, 2023, dated the same date as the indictment. See, https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24479174/lawfare-docket-watch-trump-statement-of-facts-supporting-indictment-april-4-2023.pdf
However, "[t]he Supreme Court has instructed that an indictment is sufficient if it contains the elements of the offense charged, fairly informs the defendant of the charges against which he must defend, and enables him to enter a plea without fear of double jeopardy." (citing Hamling v. United States, 418 U.S. 87, 117 (1974)); see also Collins v. Markley, 346 F.2d 230, 232 (7th Cir.) (en banc) ("The sufficiency of an indictment is to be measured by certain guide lines. First, the indictment standing alone must contain the elements of the offense intended to be charged, and it must be sufficient to apprise the accused of the nature of the offense..." In Yefsky, the court held that the indictment was defective in that it did not provide the defendant with adequate notice of the charge (conspiracy to commit mail fraud) against him. 994 F.2d at 993 ("Where guilt depends so crucially upon . . . a specific identification of fact, . . . cases have uniformly held that an indictment must do more than simply repeat the language of the criminal statute.") (citing Hamling, 418 U.S. at 118). In Curtis, the court stated the following in considering the sufficiency of the allegations contained in an indictment charging mail fraud) (what the actual Trump indictment says on this issue, inter alia, is "The defendant, in the County of New York and elsewhere, on or about June 19, 2017, with intent to defraud and intent to commit another crime and aid and conceal the commission thereof, made and caused a false entry in the business records of an enterprise" p. 6:
United States v. Adamo, 534 F.2d 31, 35 (3d Cir.) ("The Curtis indictment was so vague that trial might have proceeded upon an entirely different concept of the scheme than that contemplated by the grand jury when it returned the indictment. By contrast, the indictment in this case explicitly outlines the elements of the fraudulent plan."), cert. denied, 429 U.S. 841 (1976). https://www.justice.gov/archives/jm/criminal-resource-manual-971-sufficiency-indictment-generally#:~:text=(en%20banc)%20(%22The,the%20nature%20of%20the%20offense."
Combining this lack of notice and the Merchan court's alleged mandated 24 hours to submit all evidence after the judge informed the jury that this case would be called "election interference case" appear to combine to deprive Trump of Constitutional rights to Due Process and the right to a 5th and 6th Amendments Grand Jury indictment with particulars noticed. Subsequently, during the trial weeks after commencement, for the first time, Judge Merchan allegedly informed the Trump defense that D.A. Alvin Bragg was alleging that the alleged crime that was being covered up, but not alleged in the indictment, was Election Law § 17-152. "Conspiracy to promote or prevent election. Any two or more persons who conspire to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means and which conspiracy is acted upon by one or more of the parties thereto, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor." Fundamental Due Process requires prior notice and an opportunity to be heard. This hardly seems to comply.
Jury Instructions Included:
“By Unlawful Means”
Although you must conclude unanimously that the defendant conspired to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means, you need not be unanimous as to what those unlawful means were."
Probably Unconstitutional Jury Instructions
Here are the probable unconstitutional jury instructions used by the judge, telling the jury to decide amongst a number of uncharged crimes and without unanimous consent on any one of them! https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24699534-trump-ny-criminal-trial-jury-instructions?embed=true&responsive=false&sidebar=false

Trump sentencing delayed until after November election. Judge Merchan also postponed consideration on whether to overturn the criminal conviction in light of a recent Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity and other evidence. That hearing is now set for Nov. 12. Prosecutors working for District Attorney Alvin Bragg did not oppose Trump’s request for a sentencing delay. Instead, they said they would defer to Merchan’s discretion, and they acknowledged the potential for the immunity issue to complicate the process. (https://www.politico.com/news/2024/09/06/trump-trial-sentencing-hush-money-00177749?cid=apn). ORDERED, that decision on Defendant's CPL $ 330.30 motion to set aside the jury verdict and to dismiss the indictment will be handed down off-calendar on November 12, 2024; and rt is further ORDERIID, that sentencing on this matter, if necessary, is adjourncd to November 26,2024, at 10am.

Opinion From Logical Deduction: There is NO "Time" In and of Itself. It is Always Now; Everywhere. Now is Space and Space is Now

By David William Jedell Updated April 19, 2025
“It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.” - Mark Twain.
The Peer Review "Requirement" is Simply a Constraint on Innovative Discoveries Not Understood by the Store-Bought Science Collective in Order to Monopolize True Scientific Thought in the Hands of the Military Industrial Complex
Neuroscience sheds light on brain mechanisms underlying exceptional creativity: A new study sheds light on how highly creative individuals, such as visual artists and scientists, may have brains that function differently compared to others. The research, published in Psychology of Aesthetics, Creativity, and the Arts, reveals that people who exhibit exceptional creativity—referred to as “Big C” creative individuals—demonstrate more random patterns of connectivity in their brains. By using functional MRI (fMRI) technology, the researchers observed that highly creative brains bypass typical neural hubs, making distant connections between different regions of the brain more quickly and efficiently. These individuals are not only distinguished by their high levels of creative achievement but also by their ability to think in novel and non-linear ways.
Why does such an obvious concept remain undiscovered since consciousness developed? Immanuel Kant insufficiently tackled the question of "Time", along with other very famous philosphers and physicists. Thus, it is a very important topic, however neither Kant nor anybody else has seen the simple truth that Time in and of itself does not exist, although they provide sophistries to beguile their readers with imagined and irrelevant fallacious thoughts. The facts are as follows: It is always Now. If physicists, mathematicians and other scientists would accept this obvious fact, and disregard scientific propaganda and the peer review "requirement", we would approach a better understanding of everything. I challenge anyone to refute this paper.
We exist in our local Space point reference (spacial area where changes in object, energy and wave position are within our conscious sensory perception). The delusion of Time construct follows as a result of our single point reference on earth, giving rise to the conscious inference of Past, Now and Future. Have you ever woken up when it was not Now? The ticks of a watch are only made by gears that are coordinated with a fraction of the earth's rotation we call a "second." It is not keeping track of "Time." It is keeping track of the relation of two motions. The "speed" of these motions are not inherent in Time as a thing in and of itself, but rather, in the ratio of the distance the object travels to an arbitrary fraction of the earth's cyclical rotation as a constant (i.e., the ratio of one to 24, or an "hour"). Space and Now are the same thing. It is only consciousness that creates the delusion of Time; without it the Earth would exist in eternity. However, the universe would actually not "exist" at all without consciousness because existence is strictly a conscious construct.
When there is an event, like a collision of two objects in front of us, we store it in memory. When that event has moved out of our local Space, and there is another event in an ordered sequence, we delude ourselves into believing that the conscious perception of the first sequentially ordered event happened in the "past," as a result of the fact that the event is no longer generating sensory impulses (i.e., you no longer see it in front of you). However that event and its energies still continue in their effects in Space that is non-local. Since our conscious mind can review the perceptions of memory and the lack of the same immediate sensory perceptions simultaneously occurring (i.e., you don't see it anymore), the mental construct is created that there is a past and a present. This is not factual but flawed. As far as the "future," the motions and coincidences in "events" (i.e., the paths of two objects colliding) have not occurred in our local Space reference. The future can only be imagined, predicted or hoped for, but if the future did exist, it would be in our local Space. There are motions of matter and a sensory "observer" however Space is always Now and Now is always Space. So-called "Time Dilations" in relativistic physics are at best accelerations of momentum within Now.
Rather than a light cone, it is more accurate to depict a circle representing your conscious area of sensory perception. Arrows outside of the circle pointed inward to the circle represent sequentially separated momentum or events that have not effected your perception but are poised to do so. See, https://www.dreamstime.com/illustration/arrows-pointing-to-circle-middle.html
Arrows inside the circle (or sphere) pointed outward are events or momentum that affect your perception but are moving away from your area of sensory perception. See, https://www.istockphoto.com/vector/arrows-outwards-circle-round-shape-vector-illustration-gm1473703846-503768100
A sequence does not depend on "Time", i.e., the sequence 1,2,3 will always be 1,2,3 no matter how much the earth has rotated or revolved. A sequence is time independent.
However, Einstein doesn't apply his own postulate that all inertial frames are equivalent. So, the observer on the spaceship sees the clock on earth going slower while the observer on earth sees the clock on the spaceship going slower at the exact same rate. Since all inertial frames are equal, when the two observers are joined back together, the number of clicks of their clocks are physically the same, and the displacement of each clock from the other is zero. Otherwise, the observer on the space ship would see the earth spinning like a top, and the spaceship would be a "privileged" frame of reference which Special Relativity does not allow.
Moreover, in accordance with Einstein's Special Relativity, light always moves in a straight line. In his famous thought experiment, the light leaves the emitter and heads straight up towards the receiver at an angle. This is impossible. Actually, the beam must be moving straight up and down. It is the spaceship that is moving, that's all, and in the opposite direction, the "proper" frame is also "moving." Clocks are not "Time" itself, but rather, they measure and compare relative motions. The use of light, with its constant speed in all reference frames, to measure the rate of clicks, is simply a convenient way to exactly compare the so-called proper frame number of clicks with the relativistic frame number of clicks..
The slowing or red shifting of light moving away from an object near the event horizon of a black hole (or dark neutron star) is just that; the slowing of photons in the grasp of strong gravity continuing in Space-Now. There is no evidence of Time slowing down or even existing in and of itself.
A major obstacle to the general acceptance of the fact that Time is a mathematical convenience or tool to compare relative motions in everyday life, and not a thing in and of itself, is that languages, such as English, are pervaded with words that express Time as a thing in and of itself, such as "happened," "was," "yesterday," tomorrow," and many other expressions of past and future tenses. Calendars, clocks and appointments are other obstacles to the comprehension of Space. Attributing a dimension to Time is analogous to attributing a dimension to a 12 inch ruler and calling it distance. In the same way clocks are not time itself. Moreover, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis states that the grammatical and verbal structure of a person’s language influences how they perceive the world. It emphasizes that language either determines or influences one’s thoughts. https://thejedellreport.blogspot.com/2022/05/roe-v-wade-getting-worked-up-over.html
Hypothetical Thought Experiment
Instead of trying to think this out with our flawed verbal language system, try to think in a spacial way of what is actually happening. Here is a simple example of spacial comprehension of this; a thought experiment. A jet liner located on the equator takes off due west. When it reaches 35,000 feet it is traveling 1,000 mph ground speed. The pilot has only a sun dial in front of the cockpit that he can see from inside. Nobody on the plane has a clock or watch. The sun dial shadow indicates it is 3pm upon reaching 35,000 feet. The sun can be seen high above. Subsequent to the plane traveling 6,000 miles, the sun dial is in the same 3pm position and the sun hasn't moved. Its still high in the sky. The pilot and everyone on the plane think that time has stopped during the flight. They even confirm this assessment when they land and take a few minutes to walk into the airport. All the clocks on the walls and all the people's watches indicate 3:05pm.
On the ground at the airport that the plane departed from, the ground crew personnel look at their watches and see that they indicate 9pm. It is also night, the stars are shining. They compare their memory of a sunny day with the present sensory input of night and no sun. They construct the delusion of time. Whereas the pilot and passengers have current sensory input of a shining sun and a sun dial that has not moved during the flight. Finally, the pilot and passengers are informed that they are moving through Space from one area of Space to another, and that they passed 6 "Established Time Zones." The pilot and passengers accept this explanation after some thought. But the ground crew believe that it is 9pm and that 6 hours of "Time" have passed because the hands of their watches moved and the sun set and it is night. The crew holds on to delusion like people did when the earth was flat and the earth was the center of the universe, rejecting Columbus and Copernicus on his death bed, and burning Guido at the stake for heresy.
There can be no "Time Travel" without Time, and the "Arrow of Time" can just as easily be reversed with no real difference, i.e., that "Time" moves from the future to the past or moves from past to future. Theoreticallyt, in order to travel into the "Past", all cause and effect vectors would have to be reversed, and it would take 150 years to go back 150 years. However, this cannot be done. Neither can travelling to the "future" because it would require an increase in momentum of all vectors of momentum, which cannot be done.
Furthermore, entropy is not only a flawed concept (i.e., the egg was a jumble of particles before it was neatly assembled into an egg, then dropped into a chaotic mess), but is does not prove the existence of time. Einstein's light cone (see illustratio https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/). File:World_line.svg, in so far as it represents space, is a correct structure with a false premise, i.e., that at the top is "Time" in the "future" moving down to the center which is "Time" in "the present" then lower which is "Time" in the "past." Actually, the top is filled with events whose momentum has not sequenced into our sensory space. The center is our sensory space, and the bottom is where momentum has moved from our sensory space to outside our sensory space. All in NOW! We can account for the entire universe without the delusion of "Time" in and of itself.
My Opinion: The Fact That Light Travels Fast Does Not Necessarily Prove The Existence of Time
A sequence does not depend on "Time", i.e., the sequence 1,2,3 will always be 1,2,3 no matter how much the earth has rotated or revolved. Thus a sequence is time independent.
"Serious critical thinking and skepticism addressed to new and even old claims is not just permissible, it is encouraged and desirable as the essence of science." - Carl Sagan
