CHEMISTRY OR ALCHEMY

"They asked the Master what was the difference between chemistry and alchemy in relationships and he answered these beautiful and wise words: - People who search for "Chemistry" are scientists of love, that is, they are used to action and reaction.

People who encounter "Alchemy" are artists of love, constantly creating new ways of loving.

Chemists love out of necessity. The Alchemists by choice.

Chemistry dies with time, Alchemy is born through time ...

Chemistry loves packaging. Alchemy enjoys content.

Chemistry happens. Alchemy is built.

Everyone seeks Chemistry, only some find Alchemy. Chemistry attracts and distracts ...

Alchemy integrates the masculine and feminine principle, that is why it becomes a relationship of free individuals with their own wings, and not an attraction that is subject to the whims of the ego.

In conclusion, the Master said looking at his students: Alchemy brings together what Chemistry separates. Alchemy is the real fusion, Chemistry the separation that we see every day in most couples.

"Let's start building conscious relationships, because chemistry will always make our bodies age, while alchemy will always deeply caress us from within."

Earth is crossing the threshold of 1.5°C of global warming, according to two major global studies which together suggest the planet's climate has likely entered a frightening new phase. Under the landmark 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change, humanity is seeking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and keep planetary heating to no more than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial average. In 2024, temperatures on Earth surpassed that limit. This was not enough to declare the Paris threshold had been crossed, because the temperature goals under the agreement are measured over several decades, rather than short excursions over the 1.5°C mark. But the two papers just released use a different measure. Both examined historical climate data to determine whether very hot years in the recent past were a sign that a future, long-term warming threshold would be breached.

This pattern suggests that, given Earth reached 1.5°C warming last year, we may have entered a 20-year warming period when average temperatures will also reach 1.5°C.

The Canadian paper involved month-to-month data. June last year was the 12th consecutive month of temperatures above the 1.5°C warming level. The researcher found 12 consecutive months above a climate threshold indicates the threshold will be reached over the long term.

A fully-realized, morally mature person would not be a billionaire anymore. They would not be able to stand it.
