University of Manchester Scientists Suggest that Cancer is a Modern, Man-Made Disease edit

A study review by University of Manchester scientists has strongly suggested that cancern is a modern, man-made disease. The scientists researched into the remains and literature from ancient Egypt and Greece and earlier periods. They found only one case of the disease in the investigation of hundreds of Egyptian mummies. They also found a few references to cancer in the literary evidence, proving that cancer was extremely rare in ancient civilizations. It has been noted that the disease rate has risen massively since the Industrial Revolution, in particular childhood cancer, which proves that the increase is not simply due to modern people's extended longevity.1

Stella Constance edit

Stella Constance's work focuses on community / human resources development, combining ideas of social innovation to multimedia writing and production. Constance’s research is focused on creating healthier, sustainable living within workplaces and communities. Her charitable works include assisting Jabes Community School 1,2 in Nairobi, Kenya, by creating a successful agricultural program, with some additional community support for Jabes Community School and nearby affiliated communities.

Focusing upon ethics and values that help strengthen individuals, families, and communities, Constance's writings include a family screenplay on the importance of civic involvement for community safety in her short film, “City Boys Backcountry Adventures”3. A review of the film was published in The Salt Lake Tribune, located in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, titled, "An Experience Worth Bringing Back in Higher Volume: FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT,"4 it further outlines the value of positive family entertainment at home and its influence on the community.

Constance has written articles for Opal Publishing’s Point of View Magazine (E-Magazine), based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, exploring ways to strengthen the human condition. Her published writings delve into the mysteries of the human mind and its perceived social constructions.5

Additionally, she wrote a romantic jazz song, “Another Lazy Summer”, which has aired on many large music internet distribution sites. The content of the song extends to a personal level for the audience, sharing ideas of what helps create long-term, healthier relationships.6 Her continued health research conveyed through her multimedia projects are reaching out to many people around the world ranging from the Internet, community engagements, and by word of mouth.

Constance shared some of the latest findings on violence research, through her “Fractals of Violence, An Overview: Its Origins and Prevention” presentation7 at the 2020 Vision for Humanity Symposium: Human Security Worldwide 2017, co-chaired by Dr. Arthur Clark8 and Mr. Cesar Jaramillo9 of Project Ploughshares.10,11,12

She continues to work to advise and help implement ways of running sustainable community-based projects with the locals in the area. One of her longer term projects has been assisting the urban poor of the Jabes Community and surrounding areas of Nairobi, Kenya, Africa. There, she has initiated poultry and green house urban farming projects to create more fiscal independence and to assist with the welfare of the children and surrounding communities of the Jabes Community Orphanage School. She has also acted as a resource person for community members, ranging from supplementing the teaching of school subjects, to advising and assisting on several community health and safety matters.1,2

Constance hopes that with more people globally providing prosocial platforms and media to assist in constructing more positive societal interactions, it is anticipated that there would be more healthier social and personal outcomes for individuals, and the creation of a more stable and functional global society.

Pollinators Face Global Extinction edit

Bees, butterflies, beetles, and other pollinators face extinction from climate change, pesticide use, habitat loss, diseases (parasites and pathogens), and modern farming techniques.

Serious Worldwide Protein Shortage Anticipated Ahead edit

With the sea animals1, continental animals2,3, and pollinators4 anticipated to become extinct in a few decades, due to high rates of pollution, habitat loss and overharvesting, with a human population expected to explode from the current 7 billion to about 9.6 billion by 20505, there is anticipation of serious global protein shortages. Humans can only live for a short time without access to any protein sources6,7: animal or plant.

A Twenty Year Window Exists Now to Stop Mass Extinctions edit

Studies are indicating that current human activities are threatening to wipe out animal life in many global regions in the next few decades1. However, there is a movement and hope, encouraging people to rethink their activities towards sustainability that can change this outcome.
