Nothing unusual had occurred that morning. The two men in the room were each to his own. One was sitting on a comfortable sofa, reading the newspaper whilst the other, having a restless mind, was standing by the window playing the violin to calm down his jumbled up nerves.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the front door. The sound broke up the two men´s personal hell. The post had arrived puntual. They now had another case to solve in their unsolved lives full of unsolved drama in an unsolved but already dissolved world. And it was a very serious matter this time.

With a tone of voice betraying his annoyance, fear and nervousness, Sherlock Holmes yelled:

• Mr. Watson, for heavens sake, do not fall asleep on your reading now I need you the most! We must leave at once! The world cannot wait! 
• Oh... oh... yes!.. yes!... Dr. John H. Watson mumbled, Holmes´ perpetual sidekick, jumping out of his short nightmare.

Both men got ready, rushed out, went through the door and left the building as fast as they could. A horse-driven cab swang by and picked them up quickly.

Whilst riding on the horse wagon, Holmes read quickly once more the message and put it  back in his chest pocket. His mind was working faster than usual, speedier than a computer and soon he had arrived to a conclusion.

The unsolved case had to do with an invention amongst other inventions to make more inventions and these in turn to manufacture other inventions in an ocean of inventions.

The scent of the trail amongst a landscape of trails was easily picked up by Sherlock Holmes. 

It had flushed a rush of blood charged with adrenaline into Mr. Holmes´ brain making his mind work at full capacity, for there was too much at stake.

What was the damn case about? Why such a hurry? Here is why. Here is the maze of trails.

First, a company invents a product, for example a pesticide (Fig. 1). The damn thing does not come cheap to the corporation. It takes a lot of money and resources to develop it.

At this stage, hell breaks lose. Not for humans but for animals.

Lots of rats,mice, dogs, pigs, chickens, hamsters, primates, sometimes even humans (Figs. 2-3), and what have you will paid with their dear lives on this part of the road.

After having fucked up a few experimental humans and leaving behind a giant animal holocaust, i.e., lots of killing, cutting, bloodshed and fucking up the lives of sentient creatures in a deal expertly called by scientists a “sacrifice for the benefit humanity”, as if humans (Homo sapiens) were the only ones on Earth, next the company will soon manufacture its long wished product.

Once developed, the manufacturer will fabricate a sample which will be assessed by the corresponding health authorities.

This is an intrincate step, one amongst other calculated steps on a vast dancing floor of power, influence and political clout which winds and twists on top and under the table.

The test product is now thrown into the world of red tape and government labs “to make sure it will not kill people or damage the environment”.

Once the product has gone through this world of bureaucrats (Fig. 4), a flock of people pretending to work hard many a times, where you will find a lot of experts at scratching their genitalia or screwing once in a while in a dark room,  and depending on how well the business lobby has shuffled, stacked, reshuffled and played its cards, the company will get the go ahead to mass produce its crap.

The manufacturer´s machines are then cranked up and soon they are working day and night at top speed spitting shit (Fig. 5).

Previous to this or at the same time, the company has already figured out multiples ways, in a clear cut or obscure fashion, how to manipulate and sell its fucking product to a world full of gullible people: Sheeple (Fig. 6).

More money is poured into shoving the final product down the throat of people (Fig. 7) using and spending millions of bucks on tonnes of advertisement everywhere. The experts call this “marketing”.

Figure 7. Man spraying herbicide on lawn. Source: versicolor.ca.

The media is flooded with ads of the new product in which paid experts or flashy posters tell people about the wonders of the company´s new product.

The marketing tells human sheep that if they spray the new crap on their crops or gardens and lawns, they will get more grass and grain to eat and enjoy life under the radiant Sun.

And of course, consumers are also told directly or surreptitiously that by using the new product, they will get more benefits to fatten up a bank account so they can travel abroad to see more shit.

The marketing tricksters will tell anything to people so they will buy the new poison. And the company is eventually hoping for all customers to develop some kind of faithfulness to its fucking product.

The damn race to make money is on.

Then the issue of this issue will be followed by hundreds of curious scientists throughout the world who will warm their balls or ovaries investigating whether or not this product damages people, animals or the environment. 

Which really means more animal holocausts. More animal “sacrificing for the benefit of humanity”.

If the scientists´ animal holocausts are more horrible than the previous ones, if the new pesticide fucks everyone up, a new Vietnam will be brought up next.

There will be a back and forth fight between two groups: The industrialists´ own economic interests along with their crew of paid scientists and those of the public along with any scientists who have the guts to dare to challenge the status quo.

This "civilised" warmongering between the two belligerants groups might result in a few folks losing their job, a few people shot or killed with a bullet hole on the forehead left dead in a dark alley and many lawyers making huge amounts of money.

And of course, more investigations and more animal torturing and killing will follow to prove perhaps once and for all whether the product is capable of wiping out life on this planet.

But in the meantime, the pesticide is being sold to the public by truckloads everywhere.

Little by little, or a lot on top of a lot, people, animals and the environment get fucked up by the investigated product.

When the whole world has had enough, when people are sick and tired, up to the gills full of this new shit, damaged by the product in question, then governments, caught in a battle between the lobby of the big businesses and the public pressure and legal demands, might or might not get in the act to protect the public´s interests, a job that those people who run the government bureaucratic machine is supposed to do in the first place.

Months may go by, perhaps even years before coming to a halt, to a preliminary conclusion which will be discussed even further to be finally wrapped with other conclusions.

And during this time, money from pulled from taxes is being sucked up from people´s bloodstream.

The preliminary conclusion and the other conclusions lead to more conclusions resulting in lots of meetings, a great deal of long distance travelling adding more toxic farts to climate change, more science gatherings, parliamentary bickering and fights, lots of talking bullshit, all combined with fancy dinners and expensive wines and going after hookers afterwards or getting laid in expensive hotels, etc. and etc., to finally arrive to a preliminary conclusion.

The whole damn thing becomes a never ending maze, going back and forth. But such is human insanity.

Until one day, this fucking business of man´s quest for knowledge on how to kill best his neighbours on planet Earth, finally comes to a fucking “final” conclusion.

A conclusion which in most cases the people who have been playing with the ball all along knew what was all about since the very beginning: That this new product was a fucking poison. As simple as that.

The long expected word may be pronounced. Cornered governments might give an order which goes through a series of orders until finally everybody agrees that the product should be withdrawn from the store shelves or prohibit its use at home but may give permission to the big companies to produce it locally but ship it away to poor nations.

But so it happens that if big businesses get to much red tape with the product at home, they simply pick up the tent, leave their own country and set up their factories in the “developing” nations where government officials can be easily bought and there are poor and maleable or no laws to protect the environment or the public.

Here the product will usually get a new patent to produce and sell it under a different fancy name.

And back at the beginning but this time with a different beginning which has neither beginning nor end in the beginning of the beginning without end in the ends with no beginnings of any company that has many back doors to run away whenever it needs to get a new beginning when the owners of the company need a new beginning.

The damn money machine keeps rolling.

The next step comes when the rich nations import foods contaminated with the “new” chemical. And back to zero again.

Laboratory tests, more animal holocausts, more regulations and deregulations, more paper shuffling, bribing, dinners at expensive restaurants, bedding downs, bickering and a whole slew of crap will follow, from one end to the other in the bureaucratic world.

Eventually, with the recommendations of scientists who are paid to work to dissipate any public doubts which means more animal experimentation and holocausts, government officials tired of reading, if any, or fed up with the fucking hot cake on their lap, declare, that food fumigated with the new chemical is “safe” to eat as long as consumers do not exceed certain “limits” set by them.

“Limits” which often kill half or all of the rats in a laboratory test. Or if the chemical does not kill the rats right away, it screws them up with tumours, kidney or liver problems,  DNA damage and so forth.

Anyway, people will usually go on with their fucking lives unaware of such technicalities. 

Most people could care less, they do not give a fuck in most cases, unless of course their ass falls off to the ground. In which case, most folks cannot tell their asshole from a hole in the ground anyway.

It seems that unless consumers get sick and are able to relate their health problem to a specific product, they will never move their asses to fight the system. 

In an Age of Terror, almost everyone is shitting on his pants quietly (Video 1).

                                Video 1. Reporter shits on her pants.

People who are lucky to lead a life of abundance usually become weak, dumb, too lazy, confortable, oversexed, besides being blindfolded and brainwashed, to do a damn thing, anyway.

As a result, everybody in the world will be dancing to a well orchestrated tune of a fucking macabre song, eating crap and passing their chemical load to the next generation.

Thus, humans are walking straight to becoming aliens due to eating and showering in their own crap of their own invention in their own backyard in the future, if  they have any.

In a nutshell, man´s mania for novelty has brought him where he is: unsatisfied, fat, swollen with boredom, sex crazy, pedophilic, fearful, depressed, terrorised, full of debts, going back and forth like a maniac, eating his own shit filled with nasty man-made chemicals and going absolutely wacko.

And of course, man is on his way of becoming a fucking alien (Fig. 8).

Or if not turning into a lousy alien, he will become a dusty fossil.

Can you think of any case that falls in the above category of the many cases found in man´s world full of fucking inventions?

We bet you can!

There are many cases that fall within. There are also quite a few that do not. Some of the ones that do not may give us life. Those that do give us death. Slow or fast but nevertheless death.

The ones that do are indeed the ones that have turned Earth into a toxic hell (Fig. 9).

A toxic hell is man´s gift to the future generations of earthlings (Video 2).

We did not hear you well! Speak loud!... Are you telling us man is Homo sapiens? 

Fuck!

Toxic hell: We  are next, my dear Watson!

We already live in a toxic world of our own construction. We humans are so sapiens that we are already sapiently eating our own shit.

Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were already back from their unexpected trip. They had had quite a busy day.

Now, what the fuck did Sherlock Holmes find out?

Here is his conclusion:

• This is a clear case of inventing to get fucked up, Mr. Watson, Sherlock Holmes said.

With an aweful surprise look on his face Watson said nothing but wondered:

• What in the name of the world has happened to Holmes when he never uses such foul language!

A housefly that had been sipping green nectar from a horse shit pile (Fig. 10) which lying on the street in front of the private eye´s flat flew in through the open window. It was a hot summer day.

The insect gave a few rounds in the air. Nobody noticed its presence. Watson was already concentrated reading the daily news and Holmes was deeply absorbed in thoughts of his last trip to Italy.

On the last round, the housefly dropped dead near the fireplace.

It was a clear case of having had too much “new” pesticide through a long chain of links linking to the arthropod through the horse shit. The horse was being fed sophisticated crap sprayed with the new crap.

• We will be next, my dear Watson. Unless we wake up from our nightmare of digging into the genie´s box of forbidden chemicals, Sherlock Holmes remarked.
• I agree with you, Holmes, Dr. Watson replied, despite of still having a few knots left to tie on the recent case.

After a couple of days, the unnoticed miniature fly´s dead body already dried up was still on the floor next to a chair by the fireplace.

It was a plain reminder of our own predicament nowadays.

Will we listen to listen to Mr. Sherlock Holmes?

Will we pay one day the required and needed attention to the flies, honey bees and other animals that are already dropping dead or going extinct around us?

To see or not see what we must see and to do or not to do what we know must do is one of our biggest challenges.

Nowhere to go, man must learn as quickly as possible to go along Mother Nature´s grain and not work against.

He must go beyond his latest fucking invention called “sustainablility”, a farce, a clever disguise for his same old business: Tearing up and fucking up his own nest.  Squandering the juice of his own Mother.

Take for example, wind turbines for wind farms (Fig. 11) which are sprouting like mushrooms all over the world.

Everybody talks about how fucking “green” this energy is but few people talk about the huge amounts of materials used to build these fucking monsters (Fig. 12) that would scare the shit out of Don Quixote de la Mancha.

Figure 12. Giant wind turbine. Source: treehugger.com.

Almost nobody talks about the rare earth elements (REEs, e.g., dysprosium, neodymium, etc.) needed for the wind turbine magnets (Video 3), or the huge amounts of money that are thrown in into these onshore and offshore projects, usually done by the same companies or branches of them that have a terrible record of fucking up Nature at home or abroad.

                  Video 3. Environmentalists dirty secrets: Rare earth elements.

Right now China has the monopoly of REEs. No wonder other global powers are on a rush to find new sites containing these strategic elements for their own high tech stuff.

China produces approximately 95-97% of the world´s REEs needed not only for green technology but also for high tech gadgets (smart phones, computers, cameras, X-ray machines, lasers, electric car batteries, nuclear batteries, colour TV sets, etc.), weaponry (precision-guided missiles, aircraft, smart bombs, etc.) and radar systems, amongst other things (Video 4).

                               Video 4. china´s rare earth monopoly.            

And China is widely known for not giving too much of a damn about the environment. As long as it grows economically, it is OK to fuck up Mother Nature.

Striving hard on her race to topple the USA, China has even pledged her own ass. Her debt as of now is about 15-25 trillion USD, borrowed from Western banks!

This means that many generations of Chinese will have to work their asses off to pay this humongous debt, if ever they are able to.

Which in turn also means the environment will give way to maintain such a huge population of hominid ecovampires or chupopteran earthlings (Sp. chupar, to suck up) in a future “developed” Chinese economy.

Add to this, the rest of chupopterans worldwide vampirising to no end Mother Earth, and you will end up with a terrible fucking mess.

Rare earth mining is horrible to the environment and its inhabitants.

This human activity leaves the mining site fucked up: Radioactive, full of toxic compounds and contaminated underground aquifers, highly toxic for plants, animals including humans.

Moreover, this wind business is basically what some experts call “green washing”. 

We can go even further and call it a real bedding down of business with mafia and viceversa happy together in order to do some heavy green washing, for there are some "green" industries that based their profits on a long chain of phantom firms which eventually dig their fucking feet into the mud pit of money laundering.

After all, without money laundering there would be no more high tech civilisation. At least this is what some experts say.

What a fucking predicament!

Fuck! So much for “green” technology!

We will get back to this so-called “green” technology on another occasion.

Anyway, the watch is ticking. The game is on. The bids are high: Our own fucking necks.

Will man wake up on time before the bell of extinction tolls for him?

We doubt it.
