Is it Possible to Destroy AI Using AI? What We Do Today Causes the Future... Choose Wisely

You Can Now Get a Religious Exemption From Using AI at Work...

https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/now-religious-exemption-using-ai-200105422.html  

Erin Maus has secured a religious exemption effectively allowing her to skip using AI for her work.

Maus is a Unitarian Universalist, a pluralistic religion that's rooted in the inherent worth of every person. In April, she argued that AI didn't align with her religious beliefs, citing environmental and ethical concerns.

AI Data Centers & Our Communities
An initiative by Erin · Environmental Advocate https://www.brockovichdatacenter.com/

Environmental activist Erin Brockovich has launched a public reporting platform focused on the impact of AI data centers, arguing that rapid expansion by major tech companies is placing growing pressure on local communities and natural resources. The website encourages residents to report concerns including noise pollution, rising utility costs, energy demand, and water consumption linked to nearby facilities.
The debate over data centers has intensified nationwide as more communities push back against large AI infrastructure projects. Recent polling from Gallup found that roughly seven in ten Americans oppose having AI data centers built near where they live, with many respondents citing concerns about water use, electricity demand, environmental impact, and rising utility bills. Brockovich has argued that greater transparency and stronger environmental oversight are needed as the industry continues to grow.

Erin Brockovich is taking aim at the AI industry, warning that Big Tech’s rapid data center expansion could become the next major environmental fight for American communities.

She recently launched a public reporting map at brockovichdatacenter, and within a week, more than 1,600 residents had submitted concerns about noise, rising utility bills, and pressure on local water supplies. To Brockovich, the pattern looks familiar: corporations promise jobs and tax revenue, local officials move projects forward with limited environmental review, and residents are left to live with the consequences.

The water issue is especially alarming to critics. Data centers can require large amounts of water to cool their systems, and some are being built near or above important aquifers. Brockovich has argued that wasting heat means wasting water, and that communities cannot afford either. She says technology already exists to capture and reuse waste heat, but companies are not being required to use it.

A recent Gallup poll reportedly found that 7 in 10 Americans oppose data centers being built in their communities, with some saying they would rather live near a nuclear plant than a massive data facility.

Brockovich’s message is direct: if Big Tech is going to use public resources, residents deserve full transparency about how much water and power these facilities consume. For her, the issue is not just about AI growth. It is about accountability, public trust, and whether communities get a real say before their resources are reshaped by corporate expansion.

California has a water problem. It also has a power grid problem. For years, the state watched billions of gallons of precious water evaporate directly into the sky from 4,000 miles of exposed canals baking in the sun. Then someone realized the empty space above the water was actually the solution. California is now covering its canal system with solar panels. The state didn't need to buy a single acre of new land. They didn't have to clear any natural habitats. They simply looked at existing infrastructure and made it do two jobs at once. The panels generate clean electricity for a stressed grid, and the shade they cast stops the water loss.

In early April 2026, residents of Trinidad, Texas started noticing something wrong with their tap water.

It was coming out brown. Murky. Leaving dark residue in sinks and bathtubs. People in local Facebook groups started comparing notes. Some said they had been getting sick. Some said they couldn't cook with it, couldn't bathe in it, couldn't do laundry.

Jennifer Combs decided someone needed to say something publicly.
She posted on her Facebook page, Southern Belle Watch, warning residents that the city's water appeared contaminated and that people had been hospitalized due to bacteria in the supply. She urged anyone experiencing symptoms or discolored water to come forward.

Trinidad Police Department responded on April 6th with their own Facebook post, calling her claims false information that was creating fear and panic in the community. Police Chief Charles Gregory said her hospitalization claims were simply false and had only caused unnecessary confusion.

On May 8th, Jennifer Combs was arrested and charged with felony false alarm or report.

She spent the night in jail. She had never had so much as a speeding ticket before.

Two weeks after her arrest, the City of Trinidad issued an emergency boil water notice.

The mayor confirmed to reporters that the city's water pipes date back to the 1950s. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality confirmed it had received a complaint and that an investigation was ongoing.

Combs has filed a federal lawsuit against the City of Trinidad, the police chief, and several other officials, alleging her arrest was an act of deliberate political retaliation.

Her attorney's statement to the court read: "The City of Trinidad has become a cautionary tale of what happens when unchecked ego masquerades as governance."

The felony charge is still pending.

https://www.thepetitionsite.com/966/414/956/a-treaty-with-mother-earth/
A Treaty With Mother Earth:


The Preamble.

The sole purpose of the treaty is to empower the common person to save our planet Earth and to continue our survival as a species for future generations. The treaty will combine our collective voices ...to force the governments of the world to do what is vital to save our planet Earth and us. The organization born from this treaty will be known, from this day forward as the W.O.R.D.


The Declarations.


We, the signatories to the treaty with planet Earth, hereby state that the following declarations are binding to us all and only changeable upon the event of a new treaty being made and signed by all the signatories of this original treaty, unless they are deceased.


1. From this day forth we will lobby all levels of our individual countries Governments to legislate acts of parliament or pass local bi laws that will,


(a) Abolish industrial and combustion engine pollution by abolishing the use all of fossil fuels.


(b) Abolish all products waste by enforcing the standard of all products be reusable or recyclable.


(c) Abolish the use of pesticides, insecticides and all forms of carcinogenic chemicals.

https://www.thepetitionsite.com/966/414/956/a-treaty-with-mother-earth/


List of Very Easy-to-follow things that WE ALL CAN DO every day to help slow down the process of Climate Change:
- Eat Less Beef since cattle produces Oodels of Methane Gas (a much stronger Greenhouse Gas than CO2). Choose chicken, Sea-farmed Fish and Pork instead of Beef - if You are not already a vegetarian.
- Turn Off all Unnecessary electrical lights and appliances, ie. Turn Off Stand By-power states on your TV, Computer screen etc., when not in use - Especially when You leave at Work!...
- Choose a Small Car to drive in - Thus more Economical, If Your region is not covered by adequate Public Transportation...
- Fly Less and only longer distances. if on Vacation - choose to Visit your Local Beaches instead of travelling the World looking for slightly whiter sand... 😉
- Commute More Together (With fellow cozy colleagues?)
- Buy Locally produced Foods & Beverages, since Transportation Alone, uses oodles of fossile fuels.
- Support electrical power-suppliers that uses Renewable energy sources ie. Waterpower (Hydro), Sun-cells, Windmills, etc.
- Keep your car tires at proper pressure. Seems trite, but if everyone did this it could reduce fossil fuel emissions by as much as 5%.
- Walk to the store if it’s at a reasonable distance. Your National Institute of Health suggests 30 minutes of vigorous activity per day. You can be healthier and so can the planet ! 😉
- Ride your bike more. Get a backpack if you don’t have one, so you can bike even when you’re carrying a small load around your town. If you have touring bags for your bike, use them. Make sure to ride safe, use the bike lanes, and wear a helmet.
- Use a ceiling fan instead of the air conditioner.
There are lots of contributions we can make by just WASTING LESS:
- Waste less groceries. A lot of fertilizers are petrochemical-based. Making more efficient use of food, leaves more oil in the ground and saves the ground from the negative effects of those petrochemicals. Even if petrochemical fertilizers aren’t used on your food, it takes fossil fuels to drive the field machinery and transport food to market.
- Recycle directly. Glass requires petroleum to melt. Plastic is made from petroleum. Further, most plastics that are “recycled” aren’t actually recycled. They end up as greenhouse gases because they’re transported to what are euphemistically called “toxic sacrifice Dump Yards” in the unregulated third world, where they are burned. So what’s better than taking glass and plastic cups & containers to the recycler? Reusing them Directly around the house !!
- Buy used. Shop at thrift stores if you can. That reduces the amount of stuff that needs to be manufactured. Manufacturing uses petrochemicals and fossil fuels. Transporting manufactured goods uses fossil fuels. Manufacturing creates jobs but we should manufacture ONLY what we need, and not simply to satisfy consumer marketing...

Denial of a crisis is no solution, neither in the case of climate emergency nor in the case of coronavirus outbreak. We cannot let ourselves be separated from society. We have to take over responsibility for all humans now. Treat the climate crisis and the coronavirus crises with the same seriousness.
All of Italy is in quarantine.
PFF Italy posted about our responsibilty for our fellow human beings during the coronavirus crisis:
PFF Statement
"PFF is a network that has been fighting for climate action for the future of our children and for those to come. We are currently living through a very critical and acute crisis: corona virus. PFF would like to make its contribution by inviting all our fellow citizens to remember that they are part of a collective and that united can we best face this challenge. Each and every one of us can contribute to slowing down the epidemic spread by following the scientific guidelines that are our primary defence. There are no individual solutions to a problem that has no borders!! Taking personal risk, because you are young or strong or do not feel like changing your habits can kill other people. Please do not under evaluate this!!
We would also like to speak to a theme that must be addressed: Denial. This is a normal psychological defence in a process of coming to accept a reality that is difficult. We are living exceptional circumstances, this is tough for all of us, however, let’s remember that some of our fellow citizens are battling for life and death with this disease and that there are people on the front lines, our doctors and nurses, making sacrifices we cannot even begin to imagine. It is a moment in which sacrifices must be made, a time for courage, not a time to escape reality and our own responsibilities to each other.
We take a strong stance against political voices that make noise and confusion by calling for division in a moment that requires unity. There is no place for profiting from this crisis for the squalid scope of consolidating future votes.
Finally, lets remember that life is about opportunity. This challenge to our global community is an opportunity to remember what is important and realize
e the limits in our current system. Crisis and change go hand in hand. But we must be there to imagine it and create the new together. This is our vision as Parents for Future."

Our Planet is being Destroyed by Government, by their criminal funding of the fossil fuel industry, by their intentional inaction, by them refusing to sincerely take human induced climate change seriously. They have their cosy little meetings where they pat each other on the backs, but the carnage continues unabated, without question, the economy they say, as the cost to regular people continues to go through the roof, then in ten years time, will anything have changed or been put right. These so called leaders need to be held to account and when possible, put on trial. Ecocide, neglect, complicity, the rules need to be rewritten so everybody is held responsible for our long term future, otherwise we will, as a species, have no future...

Millions of people are already suffering from the catastrophic effects of extreme disasters exacerbated by climate change – from prolonged drought in sub-Saharan Africa to devastating tropical storms sweeping across Southeast Asia, the Caribbean and the Pacific. During the summer months for the northern hemisphere in 2018, communities from the Arctic Circle to Greece, Japan, Pakistan and the USA experienced devastating heatwaves and wildfires that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of people.
While we largely understand climate change through the impacts it will have on our natural world, it is the devastation that it is causing and will continue to cause for humanity that makes it an urgent human rights issue. It will compound and magnify existing inequalities. And its effects will continue to grow and worsen over time, creating ruin for current and future generations. This is why the failure of governments to act on climate change in the face of overwhelming scientific evidence may well be the biggest inter-generational human rights violation in history.
We are humans who want the same thing every other human wants — a safe place to live on this planet we call home. So while our work must continue to be unbiased and objective, increasingly we are raising our voices, adding to the clear message that climate change is real and humans are responsible, the impacts are serious and we must act now.
https://www.amnesty.org/en/what-we-do/climate-change/

Our demands
Amnesty International is calling for governments to:


Do everything they can to help stop the global temperature rising by more than 1.5°C.
Reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to zero by 2050 at the latest. Richer countries should do this faster. By 2030, global emissions must be half as much as they were in 2010.
Stop using fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) as quickly as possible.
Make sure that climate action is done in a way that does not violate anyone’s human rights, and reduces rather than increases inequality
Make sure everyone, in particularly those affected by climate change or the transition to a fossil-free economy, is properly informed about what is happening and is able to participate in decisions about their futures.
Work together to fairly share the burden of climate change - richer countries must help others.

STAND WITH THE GUARDIANS OF THE LAND.
Greta Thunberg urges us to save the old-growth forests and fight for the rights of the indigenous people who are on the front lines of the climate and ecological crisis trying to protect them.
School strike week 151.
This Friday we are in a tree plantation in Sápmi, in Northern Europe. This used to be a forest, but after it was cut down forest companies have planted an invasive tree species that grows quicker than the local ones. Cutting down forests - at a time when we need to maximise every possible carbon sink - is not only disastrous for the climate, but also for biodiversity. Not to mention the local indigenous Sami reindeer herders who have lived here and cared for this land for thousands of years. When humans now change and destroy the landscape, they also completely alter the living conditions for the local wildlife, as well as for the reindeer and humans living there. It is not just the forests and carbon sinks that are being eliminated, but also the history, future and traditions of the Sami people.
Forests are not renewable, whatever the ries may say. Trees are renewable, but not forests. In a short term we only switch from one source of carbon to another when we burn biomass. Since we don't have the time it takes for the clear cut to compensate for the carbon debt (to stay below 1,5°C of global heating) it should not be considered "climate neutral". Amid the climate crisis and more frequent and intense extreme weather events (such as heatwaves, floods and wildfires) - these plantations also exacerbate their effects, increasing the devastation and suffering of people and wildlife.
The indigenous Sami people have been historically systematically oppressed, and still are so today. Indigenous peoples make up 5% of the world's population, but take care of 80% of the remaining healthy ecosystems. They are almost always on the frontline of the climate- and ecological crisis, but they are also leading the resistance. We have to listen to the guardians of the land and value their traditional knowledge to get out of this global crisis.
The exploitation of nature, land and people needs to stop.

Unite with others locally, then eventually when everybody is involved in every community, globally, then that leads to world unity. People Power. We are not here to change the world, we are here to protect it, to respect it, to stop it being plundered, poisoned and destroyed. Love our earth, revere mother nature, for we are little specks of consciousness, each one born to really make the difference. Be silent no more. Rise up and passionately educate minds, nudge people to change their lifestyles, explain how when millions of people do small things, then great things really do happen ❤

It's simply called REALITY DENIAL. In the psychology of human behavior, denialism is a person's choice to deny reality as a way to avoid a psychologically uncomfortable truth. Denialism is an essentially irrational action that withholds the validation of a historical experience or event, when a person refuses to accept an empirically verifiable reality, such as, in this case, CLIMATE CHANGE.
These are the six giveaway signs of REALITY DENIAL.
You refuse to talk about the problem.
You find ways to justify your behavior.
You blame other people or outside forces for causing the problem.
You persist in a behavior despite negative consequences.
You promise to address the problem in the future.
You avoid thinking about the problem.
ALL OF THESE SIGNS ARE PRESENT in the ridiculous idiotic and totally irrational behavior of the Climate Change Denier.

"There is No Time To Lose."




This meme says it all, our leaders are just a bunch of cheats and frauds, who put the interests of the big fossil fuel companies way before the health and well being of ourselves and the entire planet. They keep their voters doped on empty promises and lies and 'creative accounting' (or in other words downright cheating). And as long as we can all consume and be happy, we continue to put our faith in these fossil fuel puppets, year after year, and decade after decade, while the planet is slowly strangled along with ourselves. If it wasn't so tragic, it would actually be quite comical.

and on FaceBORG SE Said:
I've posted before about how much I hate it when people post "HBD" instead of "Happy Birthday." How lazy can you get?
Well, today I'm seeing a lot of posts and comments from people saying "Happy V.D." I get that people have become too lazy to write out full words, but come on, people. Surely you know that when people talk about V.D., they're NOT referring to Valentine's Day. Maybe, just this once, you can write out a full word? If Valentine is too much, you can at least write the word "Day," can't you? That would be "Happy V. Day" rather than "Happy V.D." I'm pretty sure V.D. is NEVER happy.

and then SE Said:
I was thinking how no matter when you were born, the world moves forward and technology advances, so after you reach a certain age, you look back on an item from your childhood and it suddenly looks like an antique. And you look back on the years you were growing up, and you see the way so many things have changed, and you start reminiscing about the past and how much simpler everything seemed back then. Depending on how old you are, you may remember before we had cell phones, the internet, DVRs, VCRs, caller I.d., call waiting, answering machines, ATMs, TV, etc. and as technology continues to give us newer and better stuff, the old stuff eventually seems like an antique that belongs in a museum. Like the early home computers compared to what we have now, or the early video game systems compared to now. Even the computers and video game systems of the early 2000’s seem archaic now. And if you live in an urban or suburban area, you’ve undoubtedly seen your area change over your lifetime, open space getting built up and older buildings replaced with newer ones. So then you start to view the way it used to look with rose-colored glasses. It wasn’t necessarily better, but it’s no longer the way it used to be, and that makes you kind of sad. And if you live in an urban or suburban area, you’ll likely have memories of playing on open land which has since been built over. Movies from your childhood become classics and seem a bit dated, and music from your childhood is played on classic stations and later becomes muzak at the grocery store. But you look back on your life and view it as a simpler time, no matter when you were born. It WAS a simpler time when you were younger, because technology keeps advancing and giving us new stuff, so there is always going to be something you look back on with fondness from your childhood, when times were simpler.

I remember slide rules. They were mechanical math calculating machines. Used before the invention of the Pocket Calculator. I used them in Chemistry Class at Chico State in 1973... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule
I remember Leaded Gasoline... It caused a Horrible SMOG in San Jose... in 1972 the air was so polluted that I Couldn't see Mount Umunhum from Blossom Hill at Almaden Expressway... Where I worked as a Bag Boy at PW Super. Pushing Shopping Carts.

I had a Dream about a Painting in a Gallery. The gallery is three stories tall and each floor had a painting of a Redwood Tree to make up the triptych...

I can't pretend that I LIKE this art... Or that it is GOOD art... But that's what I dreamed... and since I find it difficult to get it out of my head, I had to draw it.

I'm certain that this has some meaning... SRL...

But the important part of the whole situation is that for years I've had the belief that I could build myself an "Idea Factory" and think of Concepts while I Sleep... Like: go visit an art gallery and look at the painting and then draw it when I wake up... Or read a book while I'm dreaming and then write down the plot when I wake up... Etc etc etc...

I'm reminded of the fact that the movie Star Wars was filmed in the Redwood Forest near Eureka... And that scene of the flying motorcycle chase took place on private property... Because you can't have explosions and fires and other special effects in a park or on public land... In That particular Forest, all the trees have been cut down... so you can't really visit the scene of the Star Wars movie... Because it's not there anymore... 

Other scenes were filmed on Highway 36 between Eureka and Red Bluff... And those are in a park and people can go and enjoy them...
