COVID-19 and Urban Air Pollution




People are already starting to see the benefits of reduced air pollution. Surprised? Should not be really. NO MORE OIL WARS. Get rid of IC and diesel vehicles now! Just do it.

This was a zero-brainer before this latest CoronaVirus came along, something that has been warned about since SARS by the way, this Black Swan was foreseen by some, but the message was not exactly pushed hard was it? I wonder why? Surprise!! Bastard Heritage Foundation fossil-fuel sons-of-bitches... Also easy to see 2/3 years ago why the Trumpoids were so keen on obliterating the EPA to destroy all air quality and emissions monitoring and regulatory limits.
This was/is fossil fuel "representatives" and money plus associated gaggles of politically motivated dinosaur "useful idiot" nitwits claiming it was best to "wait-and-see". Jesus H Kristos almighty.... you only had to walk around central and West London for 30 minutes on a Summer's day to know it was hellish: aqicn.org/map/london/
Evening Standard (2019), " London Air Pollution: What is PM2.5 and NO2? How Can we Improve air Quality in the City?

  1. A main source of PM2.5 is vehicle emissions. PM2.5 is also considered dangerous to humans, because the tiny particles can bypass the nose and throat (which filter out larger particles) and can lodge in people’s lungs.
  2. NO2 is a gas which is largely produced by the burning of fuel. Emissions from cars – particularly diesel-run engines – are generally recognised as the main sources of NO2. Breathing air with a high concentration of NO2 can cause irritation in the respiratory system. It can aggravate pre-existing conditions such as asthma and cause sufferers to be admitted to hospital.
This the latest from ARPA-E on things like Carbon Capture and Storage, Direct Air Capture technologies, Fusion Energy, amongst others. Once the Terrible Trumpites and Corrupted Conservatives are out, the economic shakeout has happened and some sort of younger 21st Century Governments with some honesty and integrity (Coalitions?) are in charge in both countries, we should see accelerations in Clean Energy, once some better modern economic models are adopted and seen to be good.

  There is a large segment of British society, both home and abroad, who have not been able to gain from the terrible experiences of parents and grandparents. Through no fault of their own other than choices about how and what to learn, they never heard from an early age about any invasion of their country, never read about the desecration of their family homes and so were able to learn from that. It is no accident that Japan and Germany are two very stable successful countries now whereas Britain and America are going through various political and social turmoils and attempts at shifts to authoritarianism. In parts of mainly non-Celtic Britain, mostly within certain older parts of the moderately affluent Middle Classes, a sub-group of that deeply privileged sector received, then stoked a probably detrimental surfeit of jingoistic and ersatz "Patriotism" through much of a lifetime. It seems at times to be the very breathed air itself for those Johnnies. The results may

Quantitatively Eased Manipulated Digital Cashflows [QEMDC] Trickling Upwards in a Gush

    Quantitatively Eased Manipulated Digital Cashflows [QEMDC] trickling upwards in a gush. A neatly manufactured cash-teat sucked at by old nasties Drexel Burnham Lambert [DBL], Blackstone, Stephen Schwarzman, Apollo, Leon Black, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts [KKR], cold dead philanthropist and jet-setter Jeff Epstein and a few other Movers and Killers all mixed into that particular soup. Predatory vulture disaster capitalism at it's very best. Potentially coming to your nearest health insurers, asset strippers and property inflaters in US, AUS and UK soon, so make sure you are well prepared [$$$$] folks. More opportunities for supporters to screech "Conspiracy Hypothesis" at every opportunity when finance related issues nudge against the fundamental orientation of their prevailing grain from a position of great knowledge. Apollo, run until recently by the nasty Leon Black before the stink of his Epstein ties became overpowering and he resigned,

New Names Required for GOP and Tories

    Lest anyone be unsure as to the still remaining intentions of many the men remaining within what is still called the Republican Party in America, as well as their handmaidens in what is still called the Conservative Party in England. They were tolerated and often silently agreed with by many in those groups/parties over the years and decades.   Ten years ago they started to steadily accelerate the money, hoping the time was right. Nazism in Deutschland was essentially a gangster regime, deeply envious and resentful towards The British Empire, wanting it's share of the spoils. This is precisely what happened in that decade we all learned about and thought could not occur again. Do not believe it. No-one was prepared to stop it then and many now cry "Wolf" now. No-one used the phrase "Conspiracy Theories" in 1934. It is very simple. One is either with it or against it. There is no flexible "middle ground". That's called "accomm
