Neocolonialismo – Estrazione dell’oro legale e illegale e altre industrie minerarie contro le popolazioni Indigene, la fauna selvatica e l’acqua! | Barbara Crane Navarro

“Ogni giorno mi sveglio e tutto ciò che vedo intorno a me è dolore e tristezza perché Barrick Gold ha ucciso tutto qui. Tutto è morto.” dice Torres, la cui famiglia vive a Las Lagunas da generazioni. Ora la miniera di Pueblo Viejo di Barrick Gold sta distruggendo l’area. “Barrick è peggio e più pericoloso di Cristoforo Colombo”, aggiunge. “Non avevamo idea di cosa fosse il diavolo fino a quando Barrick Gold non è arrivato nelle nostre terre.” 

Il Canada presenta alle industrie estrattive globali un ambiente commerciale che supporta la speculazione, offre sussidi governativi, consente flussi di capitali per finanziare progetti stranieri controversi e, essenzialmente, fornisce rifugio legale dal contenzioso.

Ma il Canada non è il solo ad essere coinvolto nell’estrazione legale dell’oro su larga scala… L’estrazione dell’oro è un business globale con operazioni in tutti i continenti tranne l’Antartide. Insieme, i primi dieci minatori legali del mondo hanno prodotto 27,48 milioni di once d’oro nel 2020, per un valore di circa 48 miliardi di dollari.

Sì, “elementali – visivi – capitalisti, viviamo in un mondo materiale”- e materialista. Ovunque nel mondo dove si estrae oro legale, ci sono ecocidio ed etnocidio, proprio come con l’oro illegale…

Sankt-Hans-Fest 2024 / … Summer solstice festival 2024 – Stella, oh, Stella

Wir haben nicht gefilmt, weil das immer etwas problematisch ist, wenn so viele Leute dauernd hin und her laufen. Aber wir haben ein paar wenige Bilder, wo wir ganz klein zu sehen sind 😉

… We didn’t make a video because that is always problematic when many people are running to and fro all the time. But, we have 4 photos, on which we are visible very small in the background 😉

Wir bauen die Anlage auf.
… We are putting up the gear.
Ich schicke kein Gebet zum Himmel; ich entdeckte eine dicke Nacktschnecke oben am Zeltdach und hoffte nur, dass sie später niemandem in den Teller fallen würde. Wir bekamen auch noch Besuch von einer 4 cm langen Hornisse. Zum Glück sind die weder an Menschen noch deren Essen interessiert.
… I am not sending a prayer to haven, but I had discovered a fat slug under the roof of the tent and hoped that it would not fall down on anybody’s plate later on. We also got the visit of a 4 cm long hornet. Luckily they are neither interested in people nor their food.

Damit ihr nicht allzusehr enttäuscht seid, habe ich noch ein paar Bilder von uns in zünftiger Kleidung.

… For not to disappoint you too much, I have some photos for you with us in our garb.

Ich habe ein ganz kurzes Video auf Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/birgit.heesemann

Ich versuche, es zugeschickt zu bekommen, damit ich es auch hier direkt veröffentlichen kann.

… I have a very short video on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/birgit.heesemann

… I am trying to get hold of it, so I can publish it directly here as well.

Das war’s dann erst einmal wieder mit aushäusiger Musik. Wir wollen uns jetzt ernsthaft in neue Musikstücke stürzen und auch wieder Videos machen.

… That was it for the time being as far as playing on a scene is concerned. We plan to seriously work on new music and also to make videos again.

Simple paper-strip test might spot flu, identify strain – UPI.com

A simple and inexpensive paper strip test could help diagnose a case of the flu, and even identify the influenza strain that caused it, a new study finds.

The test can distinguish between influenza A and B — the two main types of seasonal flu — as well as identifying more virulent strains like H1N1 and H3N2, according to results published in the July issue of the Journal of Molecular Diagnostics.
