Hello Dear Friends, Cultural Creatives & Seekers Everywhere,
“Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink.”
‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner’ by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
NASA scientists have established that there is water on the moon. Yea!
Who cares? The reason is profoundly important for the future of space exploration. Besides oxygen, the fundamental requirement for human life is water. This month’s video (input link too) emphasizes the life-sustaining significance of water in the manifestation of life, from both a biological and energetic perspective.
It’s not just human life, every living organism in Earth’s biosphere is dependent on water for its survival. The structure and function of biological cells in all life forms require water as a “solvent,” the medium, necessary to support life-providing biochemical reactions.
Simple fact: No water…No life.
The quote from The Rime of the Ancient Mariner expresses the consequence of a situation in which one is surrounded by an abundance of something, but unable to benefit from its presence. This quote is used to draw your attention to a looming planetary problem that will profoundly challenge the fate of human civilization.
True, there is water, water everywhere. However, less than 1% of the planet’s surface water is available for the survival of land animals, including humans.
| Water Source | Percent Total Water |
|---|---|
| Oceans, Seas, & Bays | 96.54 |
| Ice caps, Glaciers, & Permanent Snow | 1.75 |
| Groundwater | 1.69 |
| Fresh Surface Water | 0.76 |
To compensate for the loss of potable water, human technology has tapped into underground reservoirs, aquifers, to supplement civilization’s needs. Super clean groundwater pumped from these aquifers provides nearly 50 percent of the nation’s drinking water, and most of the country’s agricultural needs.
This is where companies such as Coke and Pepsi have been draining California’s aquifers to send plastic bottles of water around the world. There are several unforeseen consequences of s rain to reach an aquifer. Replenishing drained aquifers may take centuries! 2) Empty aquifers near the coastline become filled with undrinkable salty sea water. 3 The empty subterranean caverns created when the water is withdrawn ultimately collapse causing “subsidence,” the sinking of land that profoundly changes life at the overlying surface.) 4) The number of empty, unrecyclable plastic water bottles is precipitating its own environmental disaster.
Another disastrous influence impacting our drinking water supply is the process of fracking, the pumping of surface water into the Earth to release oil and gas reserves. The problem of fracking is that the pumped water is supplemented with toxic chemistry, making the water permanently undrinkable, and its leakage into groundwater aquifers also makes the stored water unfit to drink.
Why bring this subject to your attention? Simply, an awareness of a problem is required before we can generate a resolution to that problem. While the public is unaware of the threats to our drinking water supply it is now estimated that unless water use is drastically reduced, severe water shortage will affect the entire planet by 2040. With the intention of the public this crisis can be averted.
I always like to make the content of these newsletters uplifting. OK, the topic of losing our drinkable water is not a happy tale. So … Let’s consider this newsletter as a “wake-up” call. All it will take is an awakening of the public’s consciousness to the problem that will provide the opportunity to transcend the threat. Collectively, armed with awareness, we can participate in creating the sustainable future within which we can all thrive.
CORRECTION: Last month the title of the February Newsletter was “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.” I was mistaken in attributing those important words to a lyric in a Bob Marley song. Thanks to several of our aware Biology of Beliefaudience members, I was informed that these words were the title of a song by the great Bobby McFerrin (1988). In citing the source, I was mistaken in thinking of Bob Marley’s lyrics in his song, Three Little Birds, (1977), “Don’t Worry About a Thing.” Sorry fans.
With Peace, Love, and wishes for your Personal Empowerment,
Bruce

35 of the World’s Leading Thinkers Map Your Path Forward to a Bright Future
Ervin Laszlo and David Lorimer, drawing on their holistic expertise and global network, have assembled a stellar cast of contributors who decode the big picture to offer exactly what we need now. The world-renowned scientists and visionaries who contribute to this book illuminate where are we today and where we can go from here. They focus on the most burning question of all: how can we upshift ourselves — our ways of healing, of thinking and feeling, and even of intuiting –- to respond to the pressing requirements of our time?
Their visions empower us to “be the change” we want to see in the world –- to help others be a positive and critical part of the great upshift that has already started. This will be our salvation. This compendium of insights into solutions for our world troubled by climate change, conflict, and unsustainable conditions calls for the conscious participation of all of us to implement the verities within.
