Maui Fires

A real cause.

Buckminster Fuller wrote in one of his books about a time when a captain of a Navy ship was sent on a mission halfway across the world, in a time of far less instant communication. He went on to say that a Navy Captain had to make big decisions on his own as there was no way to communicate back to base to his senior officers. He did make those important decisions. The implication was in those times, people had a better grasp of the Big Picture of things so as to make important intelligent decisions on their own. This Nation has had people making important decisions that affect us all and those decisions in recent times are hurting us all badly. What happened to that Big Picture decision making skill? Is it selfish Ego clouding those decisions? Is it Money Clouding those decisions. I am convinced at least partly, that good intentions were involved in many of those decisions. I am also convinced the other two above also had a part in these not so good decisions. A most difficult thing for many if not most humans to do these days it seems is to admit they are wrong, especially when money and that selfish aspect of Ego is involved. So it goes with what I see as a major contributing factor in the Horrific Maui Wildfires. There Is a direct causal link between this tragedy and Monsanto, Dole, the Sugar Growers and the decisions made to go with this out of balance and at times very toxic agriculture and chemical farming in general.

When will the people in charge of our government get real about what is going on around us? We are literally destroying ourselves and those in charge seem oblivious to what is causing it. Instead of doing things to correct it, they seem to blindly charge on doing things to make it worse. The Maui Wildfires are but one result. The overall deteriorating health of our Population is another result of our seemingly blind harmful actions/decisions, and they are related.

To me, the Maui Wildfires, to some degree, more or less, can be directly attributed to Chemical and GMO Agriculture that has been and is rampant in Hawaii for far too long. They are a direct causal factor in these Horrific Fires. What is the causal link between the wildfires and this bad agriculture? It is the Soil.

Soil continually depleted and made lifeless. The percentage of Organic matter in the soil is very important on a number of levels. This percentage varies in different locations. The important thing regarding these fires is, the Hawaiian Islands has some of the lowest Organic matter in their soils at this time due to abusive agriculture and other land use methods. What is the result of this? Low moisture held in the soil and a hotter dryer soil overall. It wasn’t always like this. Human activity did this. Chemical GMO Growing did this.

Organic matter in the soil holds moisture and keeps it cooler. Cooler soil with diverse green growth attracts rainfall I think on a more regular basis. This can be partly at least, responsible for the Droughts. Depleted soils have lower Carbon uptake in soil that is deadened by chemicals that do not belong in a healthy soil environment resulting again in less Organic matter in that soil. Carbon that should be in the soil for abundant green growth is therefore left in the atmosphere in possibly too large amounts. I may not be getting this equation exactly right, however, intuitively it is not hard to see the equation if one is aware of the natural cycles. It IS a DIRECT causal factor in these Fires. Massive amounts of land was, and still is, farmed in this abuse-to-healthy soil way in Hawaii. This has gone on for many years. This has resulted in less regular rain to keep things moist and green. It even means less rain for the areas that have not been abused hence an overall a deterioration in healthy balance in those areas also. This leading to a vicious overall downward cycle.

I remember reading the history of Hawaii, when outsiders came in and strove to make a living. One of the things they chose was pineapples. For sure an understandable endeavor. At that time, the soil had no chemical agriculture. Nature had made its balance and there was much organic matter in the rich live soil on the whole. As things happened, business was made to grow as the market expanded for these products. What was lacking in this rush to grow, pun intended, was a consciousness of the imbalance being created in the soil. This only got worse as in time farming became dependent of Chemical fertilizers and other harsh toxic to healthy soil additives. I remember reading years back that pesticides were used for Pineapples that were Banned in the rest of the Country. Right now, on Oahu, there are a number of different pesticides being sprayed on a regular basis that are BANNED in 8 other Nations. All this not so conscious activity again, slowly killing the live soil, step by step, year by year, reducing the organic matter in the soil. This left the soil hotter, dryer, less able to retain cooling moisture, on a large scale as the farming expanded. This hotter dryer soil on a large scale did not attract rainfall as it had when it was cooler and greener, thereby on a large scale setting up the Perfect (fire) storm. You can repeat this with Sugar Cane and WORSE GMO Corn and Soybeans. Harsher and Harsher chemicals were needed as the life, health and Organic content of the soil was squeezed out of the land. The land got hotter, dryer with less moisture in the soils contributing greatly to the Maui Wildfires we just saw.

You can extrapolate what I have said here to our Forests. We have cut down trees in Diverse forests, that were cool and green, a balanced healthy mix. Attracting rain in a natural pattern, one can even say on an energetic level. We replanted a single species with no diversity on the forest floor, depleted the life and organic matter in the forest soil, leaving it hotter and dryer, added chemicals to make this worse, further depleting the balanced Organic matter there and what do we have. Horrific Forest fires.

Things done with maybe good intentions are literally Killing us with unconscious activity, out of balance with Nature, thinking we know better than Nature. WE DO NOT.

I could go into detail on how we have done the same thing with our healthcare. It is a very similar scenario. I wrote about this in my first Substack post. It does not have to be this way. We can learn to work again in balance with Nature and live a healthy abundant life. God help us make the change. If we don’t, the beautiful children we all cherish will not have a future.
