The COVID-19 pandemic and the novel coronavirus irrevocably altered the state of human life throughout the world in the years that is most predominantly ran rampant. Social, cultural, and economic normalcies were completely changed, often inorganically and by the forced mandates of governing bodies. These changes were the most significant in the western world. In the United States, in many states, school was held “remotely” for over a year. Undoubtedly, though, the virus was serious, and over 1 million Americans died from the various strains of COVID. Regardless, many individuals’ civil liberties were openly violated and restricted in the name of public safety. In the Garden State, Democrat governor Phil Murphy’s massive shutdowns gutted the state’s economy. Hundreds of thousands of small businesses were forced to close their doors, with many never reopening. Murphy even attempted to place restrictions on the number of people allowed to gather for holiday festivities during Thanksgiving.
In recent times, a dangerous natural substance has been discovered by scientists which may pose a threat to humans. In Barcelona, Spain, the fungus Candida Orthopsilosis was discovered and deemed a brand new species. Scientists have claimed that it originated from two other types of fungus and hybridized; these officials are blaming global warming and climate change as the cause of this occurrence. Troublingly, the fungus has the ability to infect humans, grow at high temperatures, and even resist antifungal medications. Scientists say that this is only the first hybrid fungus and believe that as global warming accelerates, more may appear.
As leftists continue to make climate change and green energy initiatives a central focus of their political agenda, it appears that these policies may be benefitting adversaries of American and the west. President Biden signed a green energy bill in 2022 affecting minerals. The nation of China has vast reserves of these minerals, and since 2022 the nations mining industry has greatly expanded, reaping the big benefits.
