Praying for climate peace in the midst of chaos is not helping Thailand, which is currently drowning in unseasonably backlogged rains. Due to chaotic climate change -- exacerbated by the US and China, solar irregularities, and the general warming of the solar system (according to some) -- there is too much rain in some places and too little in others. Parts of Africa have drought -- so we attack them. We use drones, and it does not appear in the news often enough to notice.

Climatological changes spur social changes since the "Arab Spring," "American Fall," and growing occupation movements around the world have food insecurity as their primary cause. That insecurity is not due to low yields yet. That will come. Now it is all about rampant speculation, commodities trading, driving up prices to cash out. The bankers and war profiteers actually affect the planet down to the soil. Rain, human tragedy, drought followed by flooding, it is almost as if a butterfly at Monsanto, Inc. test farm caused a monsoon/cyclone over Bangkok. We really are more connected than we (as non-mystics) ever realize.

Los Angeles Times
Bangkok residents are facing the worst monsoon flooding in decades could hit Thailand's capital. Authorities have been warning for days that water overflow from the north could combine with more rain and high tides to inundate the low-lying metropolis, which is home to 9 million people.
More than 280 people have been killed since a series of tropical storms began hitting the country in late July. “Bangkok may face some problems in areas that are on the outer sides of the irrigation dikes… but inner Bangkok has extremely high defenses,” she told reporters, according to Reuters. More
