What do AIDS, severe storms, wildlife dieoffs, birth defects, droughts, mental illness, acid rain, sexual problems, the hole in the ozone layer, and climate change have in common?
Disparate as this listing may seem, they are all effects of a single cause, according to a wide-ranging theory little-known to most scientists. The hypothesis first advanced in the 1950s by Wilhelm Reich, M.D., claims that underlying the movements of the atmosphere there is a constantly fluctuating energy field which also constantly is creating and dissociating the material substances that make up the atmosphere. When this field is fluctuating within normal limits, the weather remains within normal limits and the chemical composition of the atmosphere is also normal.
When the energy field is excited by exposure to concentrated radioactivity or high-voltage electrical equipment, the weather will go to extremes of alternating droughts and floods, and the chemical composition of the air will vary from the norm, with greater production of some elements, less production of others, and an over-all greater acidity of the water created in the sky.
The theory also predicts, and confirming evidence has been found, that the abnormal excitation also has an adverse effect directly on all biological processes. In this framework, the hole in the ozone layer is not due to chemical substances released from activity at ground level, but is being caused by the interference with the normal atmospheric creation processes at high altitude.
The changes in climate which are now being observed are due to the abnormal fluctuations of the earth’s field. The acidity of rainwater, which is a threat to forests in several parts of the world, occurs because the water which is being constantly created in the sky from mass-free energy is defective. Many types of diseases, including birth defects and behavioral disorders, are caused by the deforming effects of the ambient energy which is essential to life, but must be within normal parameters to properly fulfill this function.
According to Reich, and those who have followed in his tracks, the ongoing increase in electromagnetic technology and especially the use of nuclear power on this planet are causing an ever-increasing excitation of the earth’s field, which thus is at the roots of a very wide range of biological and meteorological problems. Short of a nearly total abandonment of almost all the technological advances of the past century, there is no realistic solution to many problems, which are popularly blamed on a host of unrelated causes, instead of a single underlying cause. Is the situation therefore hopeless? NO! Not at all.
There are several ways that the deterioration of the atmosphere can be halted, and even reversed, without the politically and economically impossible task of convincing the human race to change its ways. But the solutions would require thinking outside the usual boxes and that is what most people, even including most environmental activists, are most reluctant to do.
