California declares emergency from massive tree die-off
The Orwellian idiocy continues as the tree die-off is blamed on the beetles (only a symptom). Off course no mention of the climate engineering and its long list of horrific impacts. Astronomically high UV radiation levels, altered light wave length ( unknown impact to photosynthesis), completely contaminated rain and thus soils, extremely low humidity levels thanks to the desiccant materials used with the climate engineering programs, constant extreme heat in the US west, not just during the day but nightie “lows” are raising twice as fast as daytime highs (climate engineering is worsening the rapid warming of the planet overall), etc. People will care once all is dead, in the meantime, for most, their fossil fuel fiesta continues. – Dane Wiggington

Gov. Jerry Brown has declared a state of emergency to help California address a bark beetle infestation that is killing tens of millions of trees.
The governor sent a letter Friday to U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack seeking federal action for “the worst epidemic of tree mortality in its modern history.”
The tree die-off is exacerbated by four years of extreme drought conditions, which has left trees vulnerable to the native beetles.
The United States Forest Service estimates that more than 22 million trees have already died in California.
Brown is asking the federal government for additional funding and help for private landowners to remove dead and dying trees.
Friday’s proclamation is just the latest in California’s response to the drought.

How bad is the forest?
If the trees die, we die. Whole ecosystems are collapsing all over the globe and our rapidly dying trees are the most visible harbinger of what is unfolding. Few seem to notice the die-off until it is pointed out to them, but once recognized, what can be seen is alarming. On a geological time scale the human race has decimated planet Earth in the blink of an eye. Though there are countless sources of anthropogenic damage to our planet, climate engineering stands out above all the rest combined. The list of environmentally devastating factors directly relating to the ongoing geoengineering programs is very long. Trees are succumbing to this onslaught and the human race will follow if our species does not completely alter its current trajectory. Global geoengineering is completely disrupting the hydrological cycle (http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/ge…), destroying the ozone layer (which is exposing all life on Earth to extreme UV radiation http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/ex…), and contaminating the entire surface of the planet with highly toxic bioavailable heavy metals and chemicals. Massive levels of radio frequency transmissions directly related to climate engineering are yet another layer of destruction which is radically affecting the trees, us, and the biosphere as a whole. It is imperative to wake the masses to our common plight. All those who are already awake are needed to assist with the ongoing critically important campaign to awaken others. Arm yourself with critical data and pass it on, make every day count in this battle. The attached 10 minute video shows first hand how rapidly our forests are dying, if the trees die, we die.
