The One Hundred and Thirty Eight Million -- A Cold Fusion Holocaust
The suppression of cold fusion and other exotic energy
technologies has killed millions of men, women, and children across the
globe. Every day, tens of thousands of deaths occur that are directly
related to high energy costs. When will the killing spree end?
For you who might gripe that the planet is already
overpopulated, keep this in mind: statistically, a people who
are well-fed and well-educated are far more responsible in
family planning. |

Earth is not a pleasant home for around a billion or more of its
inhabitants. For many humans, it can be difficult or impossible to
obtain the necessities of life -- food, clean water, healthcare, and
shelter. This challenge is made far worse by high energy prices that
boost the price of all these commodities. As a result, millions of
individuals die agonizing deaths from starvation, hunger, disease, and
exposure to the elements. If
exotic energy technologies such as
cold fusion
had not been suppressed for the past twenty years, many of these human
lives could have been saved.
When many financially stable individuals think about death, they imagine
living into old age and peacefully slipping away to eternity in their
sleep. At worst, they may imagine being surrounded by their family
members in a hospital, after an age related disease has overwhelmed
them. Unfortunately, the majority of deaths in the world do not happen
in such a way. Most of our fellow sentient beings on this planet die
from the agonizing processes of starvation, thirst, disease, or exposure
to the elements. Often, they endure a combination of these processes,
while watching loved ones suffer the same fate.
By doing just a little research on the internet I found some staggering
numbers. Approximately 15 million children die of hunger related deaths
each year. In fact, there are more childhood deaths from hunger than
adult deaths. Also, approximately 1.7 million individuals of all ages
die each year from a lack of clean water, or proper sanitation. If these
numbers are not enough to startle you, here are some more. In 2002
alone, over a million children under the age of five died of diseases
that could have been prevented by simple inoculations. Finally, consider
that in England alone, a study determined 2,700 (two thousand seven
hundred) individuals died due to the inability to afford the high price
of energy to keep their homes warm.
In addition to all the above deaths, many others suffer pain and agony
without actually dying. These individuals endure day after day of
poverty, just barely surviving. They may obtain enough food to survive,
but may suffer malnutrition. Although they may obtain enough water to
avoid death, the contaminants in the water may infect them with
parasites. Even if they do not freeze to death in winter (or bake to
death in the summer due to a lack of air conditioning), they are
continually uncomfortable and prone to illness.
Many of these deaths could have been prevented, if cold fusion and/or
other exotic free energy technologies had been allowed to proliferate in
the past. Instead, technologies like cold fusion were
suppressed
for many reasons including the protection of careers, defense of the
status quo, the continuation of dogmatic beliefs, and simple greed.
Cheap, clean, and plentiful source of energy could have prevented these
deaths and so much suffering via many different ways.
Access to Food
Currently, food production, processing, and transport on this planet
requires large amounts of oil and fossil fuels. In every step of
production, energy is used to produce the food that we consume, and most
of that energy comes from fossil fuels. Without these fossil fuels --
unless a world wide agricultural revolution took place -- food
production would come to a near total halt.
One example of how food production requires large amounts of fossil
fuels is the usage of fertilizer. Modern agriculture requires massive
quantities of fertilizer to increase crop yields. Most of this
fertilizer is synthesized using fossil fuels. One study indicated that
40% of the energy used by the food system goes into producing fertilizer
and pesticides. So when the price of fossil fuels goes up, so does the
price of fertilizer. This makes the farmer pay more to grow his crop. If
he cannot afford the fertilizer, his crop yield will be much less. Due
to the increase in energy costs, the consumer pays more.
Of course the farmer also uses fossil fuels to power the equipment he
uses. The planting machines, tractors, and harvesters all consume fuel.
Even the power consumed by the irrigation system has a price. When the
price of oil goes up, the farmer pays more, and it is passed along to
the consumer.
Transportation and processing are two factors in the cost equation also
that must be considered. After the food is harvested, it must be
transported to a processing plant. The trucks or trains that do the
transporting consume fuel. Also, the processing plant then consumes
energy, which also has a cost. Once the food is processed, it is loaded
onto additional trucks to be sent to warehouses, and then to grocery
stores or restaurants. This adds more cost to the final product.
If cold fusion had been allowed to proliferate twenty years ago, the
price of oil could be a tiny fraction of what it is today. It's possible
it could be as low as twenty dollars or less. Instead of being concerned
about energy costs, farmers could just focus on growing as much food as
possible. Instead of being expensive, the fertilizer could be much
cheaper, to the point of almost being a non-issue. The transport of the
food (perhaps by cold fusion powered vehicles) would also be much
cheaper. When the food reached the processing plant, powered with cheap
electricity generated by cold fusion, the energy cost involved would be
tremendously reduced.
In a world with cold fusion technology widely proliferated, the cost of
food would be dramatically less. This is because the energy used at each
stage of production, processing, and transport would be dramatically
less. However, due to the suppression of cold fusion and other exotic
energy technologies, the price of food has continually increased. This
has resulted in massive human suffering and death.
Access to Water
Fresh water is critical to human survival. A human can live for weeks
without food (or longer), but will die in a matter of days without
water. Right now, hundreds of millions of people do not have proper
access to fresh, clean water. A cheap, clean, and abundant source of
energy -- like cold fusion -- could make access to fresh water much
easier.
A cheap source of energy could provide the power for pumps that draw
water out of wells. This is one method of obtaining access to water, but
there are other methods too. With a technology like cold fusion, water
desalinization could become very affordable. Any nation with access to
any body of water -- even salt water -- could purify it for human use.
The reason why water desalinization is not more widely used today is
that it requires a large amount of energy, making the water produced
very expensive. It would be cheap with exotic energy technologies.
Another source of water is humidity from the atmosphere. There are
machines that can extract water from the atmosphere. This water can then
be used for human consumption. Once again, the biggest issue here is
energy cost. These machines consume a large amount of energy, which is
expensive. However, if cold fusion had proliferated far and wide, land
locked nations could have built devices to extract water from the
atmosphere.
In some poor regions of the world there is water available, but it needs
to be boiled to kill pathogens. Sadly, this often does not take place,
because of reasons as simple as a shortage of firewood. The result is
that people get sick or die from germs and parasites in the water. If
cheap cold fusion generators had been widely proliferated over the past
twenty years, people in these areas could have had a cost effective
solution to treat their water supply.
By preventing a solution to the water crisis from proliferating, those
who have suppressed cold fusion and other exotic technologies are guilty
of harming, or even killing, human beings.
Access to Healthcare
In a world with reduced energy costs, it would be far simpler and
cheaper to provide basic health care to the poor. First of all, the
price of manufacturing medicines and vaccines would be reduced, due to
the lower price of energy. Secondly, transporting these supplies to
different areas of the world would be cheaper. Basically, every dollar
spent by charitable organizations would have gone much further. If a
million dollars in charitable donations could save a thousand lives in a
world without cheap energy, it could probably save double that many
lives with cheap energy.
Sometimes the issue is not getting medicine to sick people, but getting
very ill individuals to medical professionals. Currently, there are
people dying in remote regions that could be saved by a simple trip to a
health clinic, dozens or hundreds of miles away. But these poor
individuals cannot afford transportation, and are too sick to walk. In a
world with cheap energy, a bus or airline ticket could be a tiny
fraction of what it is today, and these lives could be saved.
Yet another issue is that in regions with a prosperous economy (due to
low cost energy) there would probably be more medical services and
doctors available. With jobs available, individuals would be able to
afford these medical services. If they were one of the few without an
income, their friends and neighbors (with incomes) would be more able to
help contribute towards their medical care. When a whole region is poor
due to high energy costs and an awful economy, everyone suffers.
Although I am not a fan of socialized medicine, I must mention that
nations with a more robust economy could afford to provide better free
healthcare services to their citizens. If the proliferation of exotic
energy technologies leads to the development of other breakthroughs --
such as gravity control or reactionless thrust -- civilization may
change in very radical ways. Perhaps we will even develop a post
scarcity society in which the cost of production is so low, everyone's
basic needs could be provided for with pocket change.
Such a fantastic future world will not come to pass without exotic
energy technologies. The suppression of cold fusion and other
technologies has prevented such a society from developing.
Access to Shelter
Many people in this world don't have proper shelter from the elements.
Perhaps a billion people live in homes that don't have heating or
cooling, don't have running water, and don't have proper sanitary
measures. These individuals get wet when it rains, freeze in winter, and
bake in the summer. Also, exposed to high winds or an earthquake, many
of these homes collapse, potentially killing those inside.
With exotic energy technologies, the price of production of materials
would drop. A home could be constructed at a lower cost. Also, it would
be cheaper to heat and cool homes. Since the powers that be have
suppressed exotic energy technologies, the price of materials remains
high. A decent quality home is just too expensive for many people on
this planet.
Tens of thousands of people die each year from a lack of a safe and well
designed home. Many of these deaths could have been avoided if cold
fusion technology had not been suppressed.
Other Sources of Death
There are many other ways in which people have died due to a lack of
clean and cheap energy. A few I can think of are exposure to pollution,
deaths due to extreme weather from climate change, and the hundreds of
thousands of deaths from wars related to energy issues.
The Deaths Add Up
When you add together all the deaths that have occurred in the past
several years due to a lack of food, water, shelter, and medicine, the
number is very high. Let's try to do a little math, and determine just
how many human beings have died to the suppression of exotic
technologies.
Assumption #1 Cold fusion emerged on the scene in 1989, and was
immediately suppressed. If it had not been suppressed, it could have
developed rapidly. Let's assume that if it had not been suppressed, that
cold fusion devices would have been broadly proliferated by the year
2000.
Assumption #2 Let's assume that all lives after the wide proliferation
of cold fusion were saved, and that no lives were saved before. [Of
course in reality the implementation would be more incremental.] This is
the year 2012, so a total of 12 years has passed since the year 2000.
Assumption #3 Let's add together *some* of the deaths that take place
each year due to a lack of cheap energy. Let's use the rough figures of
20 million deaths a year from hunger, 2 million deaths a year from
thirst, and a million deaths from other causes. This adds up to 23
million deaths a year. The true total is probably much higher. Multiply
23 million by 12. This equals 276 million deaths over the last 12 years.
Assumption #4 Realize that even with cold fusion technology not all
deaths from hunger, thirst, disease, and other causes would have been
prevented. Let's say that 50% of these deaths would have been prevented.
The resulting number is 138 million deaths.
138 MILLION DEATHS DUE TO COLD FUSION
SUPPRESSION
That's right; a rough estimate of the death toll from the suppression of
cold fusion could be 138 million human beings killed. If you consider
other exotic energy technologies that have been suppressed since the
time of Tesla, this number could go into the billions.
When I say the powers that be including MIT, NASA, the DOE, and other
organizations have blood on their hands, I am serious. Those that have
ignored cold fusion, mocked those who researched cold fusion, and
suppressed cold fusion are responsible for millions of deaths.
Just imagine that if cold fusion had not been suppressed, there could be
138 million individuals alive today. What if....
-- One of these individuals would have been the next Tesla?
-- One of these individuals had made a breakthrough that could allow for
control of gravity?
-- One of these individuals had found a cure for the aging process?
Of course every life is important. Even those who are not geniuses are
unique individuals that deserve a chance at life. None of the 138
million killed deserved to die.
As cold fusion emerges into the market place, let's hold those that
suppressed cold fusion accountable for their actions. We cannot let the
world forget that 138 million deaths did not have to happen.
