POPS1 billion people are threatened by starvation.
Interview with Erwin Wagenhofer_____ From article: In contrast to people who have too little and starve, we in the industrialized nations should be the happiest people since we have never really suffered from hunger and thirst. Yet we are actually far from being happy and content. What is it that hinders us? When I look around I do not see many happy people, even though we today have such immeasurable wealth. My mother and father, for example, experienced hunger; I am the first in our family who comes from a generation that has not known hunger. Maybe this is due to our considerable need for time to learn to deal with such material wealth. I believe that we need more time than we think is required. A human lifespan is not very long, even if we do live to a ‘ripe old age’. In comparison to the world’s history it is really very short. Maybe we should also be more modest and do everything somewhat more slowly. The pace of life today is killing us. ...

POPSIce Age Possible for Scandinavia? From article: Humans could neither develop agriculture or permanant settlements and in turn would move southward onto other parts of Europe, being pushed by the colder, unstable temperature from home. As the population moves, fights and even battles would break out within the mass migration. Resources within other countries would decline because of the sudden increase in population within their own country. In defense, some countries would declare war. ... By the end of the decade, Europe's weather would be more of a mirror image of Siberia's or northern Canada's then what it looked like in the past. Unfortunately, the duration of this process could take decades and even centuries.

POPS Do you lock your doors? As I am informed there are many places throughout the world where is still normal that doors are not locked. USA generally is not such a place, but in Canada in some communities it is tradition not to lock doors. It is also truth that this habit is in decline.

POPSHealth care, food, shelter and education, are basic human rights More from article: These will become the provision of adequate food, of shelter, of health care and education for all people, as a universal right. This will be paid for from an economic restructuring and the redirection of the countless billions a year now spent on armaments. These four basics seem not too much for anyone to ask - sufficient food, shelter, health care and education- and yet there is no country in the world where they pertain as a universal right. When they do, Maitreya says, the life of humanity will be transformed.
