 How a US-Based PR Firm Is Profiling Activists, Scientists Opposing Pesticides and GMO
Sarasvati Thuppadolla, Margot Gibbs and Elena DeBre  https://thewire.in/agriculture/how-a-us-based-pr-firm-is-profiling-activists-scientists-opposing-pesticides-and-gmo The firm spearheading this work is Missouri-based v-Fluence Interactive, founded and run by a former Monsanto executive, Jay Byrne, who previously worked as a communications executive at the US Agency for International Development (USAID). Since its creation in 2001, v-Fluence has provided a range of services including “in depth research, ongoing intelligence gathering, proprietary data-mining and analytics” to the global agrochemical and biotechnology industry.

v-Fluence also has links to corporate pesticide giants such as Syngenta which is currently facing a lawsuit in the US, with Byrne and v-Fluence as co-defendants. The lawsuit was filed by farmers with Parkinson’s disease who have alleged that their illness was caused by the company’s paraquat herbicide. They accuse Syngenta and v-Fluence of suppressing negative information on the dangers of paraquat, working to “neutralise” those who criticise it, and investigating the social media pages of people who reported injuries to Syngenta’s crisis hotline. 

 This Impending Disaster Can KILL 35 Lakh People | Mullaperiyar Dam Danger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQHPPdp0Cjg 
Gaurav Thakur   Sep 5, 2024 A major disaster could hit India, but we can prevent it. The 123-year-old Mullaperiyar Dam, located between Tamil Nadu and Kerala, is at risk of collapsing. If it bursts, it could flood five districts, affecting 3.5 million people. The dam, built in 1895, has shown cracks and leaks for decades, and experts, including the UN, IIT Roorkee, and Kerala's disaster management, recommend replacing it. If the dam fails, it could trigger a domino effect, breaking three nearby dams, including Asia's largest, Idukki Dam. But, despite the danger, Kerala and Tamil Nadu government are doing Blame Game Politics.

How Money Works Feb 17, 2023  From Description to YT: 

Hindenburg research is an investment research firm which specialises in short selling using a very simple four step process. 

Step 1, find a company with something going wrong that isn’t yet public knowledge, like a serious fault in their growth model, a significant market threat, or just plain old systemic fraud, as is the case with this Adani situation. 

 Step 2, short the companies stock. 

Step 3, make a public announcement in the firm of a research paper accompanied by a big marketing campaign to expose the problems with the company so that other investors also short sell the business which will push the price down.

Step 4, exit the short positions at the new low price with a healthy profit.
