Just as our air,the envirnoment for our physical bodies,is polluted,time,the environment of our mind,is also polluted.I feel that the present moment is the door and our deep awareness and intuition is the key.I feel the acceleration.I want to unite our conscious.Infinite possibilities await or synchronization.End history.Begin the noosphere.have you found many people on your wavelength?I have found a dozen or so.One.Love

These connections forming a kind of global mind have been there at any time, but much more slow. From the homo sapiens expanding from africa to medieval where all the artists moved from one capital to the next and now everyone is connected to everyone like drowning in informational waste.
It's the economy that needs to learn how to make profit out of sustainability
and I'm afraid we will learn this by trial and error (i.e.catastropy).

London is OK as an example. People died because of air pollution in the 50's, and they aren't now. I really do expect London's air to be cleaner now than for many years in the past. It may not be.

"I've been having this discussion with Darwin's Hamster about air pollution, and he's saying that . . . it's actually a lot cleaner now than it was at the height of the Industrial Revolution. (inaudible) It's not true in LA, it's not true in most big cities."
I said that the air is not cleaner in places that were not industrialized one hundred years ago. LA was not industrialized one hundred years ago, and the "other major cities" you allude to probably weren't, were they? Give me an example of an industrialized city of one hundred years ago that has dirtier air now than it did then. You may be able to.

I don't know specific statistics or data, but London didn't pass any meaningful air pollution legislation until a few thousand people died in 1953 because of a particularly bad day of smog. London has had notoriously bad air going back way before the industrial revolution... and it is still violating EU air quality laws today.

The National Society for Clean Air estimates that 20,000 Londoner's have their lives shortened every year because of pollution. So I can't prove it is dirtier now than it was in 1907, but it still isn't clean.

Somehow, I think this supports my position.

Which is what, exactly? All I'm really trying to say in this video is that "environmental pollution" can be physical or mental... and that even if the physical pollution isn't getting worse or is being cleaned up, the mental pollution is as bad as ever.

...because I didn't pick an American city?
