Geoengineering groups are on the rise in 2023. How are we going to navigate a world with these rogue actors trying to change the climate in the way they think best for everyone? In a highly complex multivariate system like our planet, how likely is it that they haven't accounted for every variable?

With climate extremes and supply chain disruptions, FARMING is more essential than ever. While some turn back to homesteading and the old ways, large corporations are harnessing today’s developments in AI, sensors, drone tech, and other sectors in order to automate large scale farming. What do they see? And how are they going about it? Here’s an overview of what a lot of the large players did in 2022, and how they’re positioning themselves for 2023… If you’re a modern techie, its good to know where the opportunity is. If you’re a traditionalist, its good to know what ‘Skynet’ is up to… either way this should be on your radar.

The technology we use to talk to one another is ingenious, but how does it work within our larger environment? What are solar cycles and how do they interfere with our gadgets and society as a whole? What would happen if GPS stopped working? Which form of comms technology is best during space weather events? How would all this change if our magnetic field weakened? Very interesting questions. Hopefully I do a halfway decent job answering them here.

The Hunga-Tonga Volcano erupted one year ago, and since then we’ve seen a 10% increase in water vapor in the stratosphere that could stay with us for 10 years. Water vapor reflects sunlight, absorbs infrared radiation, depletes ozone, moves wind currents, and changes the intensity and spectrum of sunlight that reaches plants. This seems like a big deal, right? Why is it getting almost no media attention? Combined with the other factors driving climate, what can we learn from this event?
