  • Peter Selg El Misterio De La Tierra
    Peter Selg El Misterio de la Tierra https://dasgoetheanum.com/schwerpunkte/2020/3/27/das-mysterium-der-erde La pandemia del Coronavirus no surge de la nada. Una manera de interpretarla es ver en ella la respuesta de la Naturaleza a la falta de conciencia ecológica en la sociedad moderna. Es una llamada de la Tierra pidiendo un cambio. Hay científicos con sentido de responsabilidad que reconocen que esto es así, al igual que se puede comprobar mediante las indicaciones dadas por Rudolf Steiner. ________________________________________ En la edición de marzo de la revista ‹Monde diplomatique›, la periodista científica estadounidense Sonia Shah, autora del libro "Pandemic: Tracking Contagions, from Cholera to Ebola and Beyond" (Pandemia: Rastreando los contagios, desde el cólera hasta el Ébola y más allá , Nueva York 2015(1)), escribió un notable artículo titulado "¿De dónde viene el coronavirus? Se trata, dice la autora, de "reconocer que nuestra creciente vulnerabilidad frente a las pandemias tiene una causa más profunda: la destrucción cada vez más rápida de los hábitats". En su contribución, Shah informa sobre los patógenos de los siglos XX y XXI que han surgido en gran número, desde el VIH y el Ébola hasta los coronavirus, y describe las circunstancias de estos acontecimientos. Describe cómo muchas especies abandonan sus hábitats destruidos y se acercan a los asentamientos humanos, transmitiendo los patógenos ("El Ébola es un buen ejemplo. Se han identificado varias especies de murciélagos como transmisores del virus. Un estudio realizado en 2017 mostró que los brotes del virus eran más frecuentes en las zonas de África central y occidental donde recientemente se habían talado bosques en gran escala.
