21The power of the INVISIBLE
22The wavefunction expands
- In a hundred years we have increased the amount
of electromagnetic signals on the planets surface
100 million times - Electro-pollution is invisible the smog of
human tele-communication
23Reducing the human body to a solid mass of
neutrons and protons would result something that
would be around 500 nm is length. i.e. around a
hundredth of the thickness of a human hair. So
one see how much space and nothing a human body
contains
24Waves and Connections
- The wave theory that surrounds us has manifested
itself more and more in science - nanometer scale vibrations in living cells.
Gimzewski discovered this in yeast cells which
vibrate in the audible spectrum and that there is
a lot of nano-motion in cells. - Difference between waves and matter is that waves
connect to each other, they are the result of
energy and connection
25Music Based Theories
-
- Quantum mechanics was developed using theories
applied to musical instruments to describe the
electrons as waves. - string theory the elementary particles could be
thought of as the "musical notes" or excitation
modes of elementary strings. - If string theory is to be a theory of quantum
gravity, then the average size of a string should
be somewhere near the length scale of quantum
gravity, called the Planck length, which is about
10-33 centimeters, or about a millionth of a
billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a
centimeter. the strings are way too small to see
by current or expected particle physics

27Environmental damage, climate change, rapid
population growth, and unwise political choices
were all factors in the demise of these
societies, but other societies found solutions
and persisted.
28Available fresh water amounts to less than half
of one percent of all the water on Earth. The
rest is seawater or polar ice. Fresh water is
renewable only by rainfall.
29Global consumption of water is doubling every 20
years - more than twice the rate of human
population growth. According to the United
Nations, more than one billion people on Earth
already lack access to fresh drinking water. If
current trends persist, by 2025 the demand for
fresh water will rise by 56 percent and as many
as two-thirds of the world's population will be
living with serious water shortages or absolute
water scarcity.
30"water will be to the 21st century what oil was
to the 20th." Who owns water and how much they
are able to charge for it will become the
question of the century. The privatization of
water is already a 400-billion-a-year business.
Fortune Magazine
31 Up to 60 percent of the human body is water,
the brain is composed of 70 percent water, and
the lungs are nearly 90 percent water. About 83
percent of our blood is water, which helps digest
our food, transport waste, and control body
temperature. Each day humans must replace 2.4
litres of water, some through drinking and the
rest taken by the body from the foods eaten.
