The Big Oil Industrial Complex: How Oil is Damaging us As Plastic?
Big Oil Industrial Complex | Rise.TV
Big Oil Industrial Complex is the collective list of six or seven largest publicly listed and investor-owned oil and gas firms in the world. In the United States, they are often referred to by this name because of their political and economic clout. There is some disagreement on which firms now make up Big Oil Complex, however, Total Energies, ExxonMobil, BP, Chevron Shell, and Eni are all named regularly super majors in The Big Oil Industrial Complex. 
But are you familiar with the marketing conspiracy behind the Big Oil Industrial Complex? Did you know it is vaster than your imagination? Here in this blog, we will guide you thoroughly about how the Big Oil Industrial Complex is using oil to make plastic, which is one of the biggest enemies of human health on the planet right now.
Did you know oil has been used to make plastic? 
Many scenarios utilize the oil industry's own records to support their assertions that the company hides the rising danger posed by its own products.
Below are some surprising facts about the oil industry:
Plastic is made from 8 to 10 percent of the world's oil supply.
It is estimated that annually 12 million barrels of oil are needed to produce plastic bags in the United States. 
Each week, the typical American trashes around 10 bags without recycling them. That means they use 520 bags per year, which is equivalent to fuel for 60 miles of driving.
Why was plastic really pushed on the public?
A worldwide energy revolution is now underway. Oil companies are concerned because more affordable renewable energy and electric vehicles lead to a cleaner and safer system. That’s why, The Big Oil Industrial Complex is looking forward to Petrochemicals, and plastics in particular, as the next big thing for growing their business.
According to the International Energy Agency, by mid-century, plastics generated from fossil fuels would account for more than half of the increase in oil demand worldwide. The United States is a significant provider of plastic polymers and competes with oil-rich Middle Eastern nations like Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Qatar.
Through 2050, the demand for petrochemicals, which are used to make plastic, is anticipated to rise by almost 10 million metric tonnes every year.

How are we choking on plastic?
Despite the convenience of plastic, our reliance on plastic goods has had detrimental repercussions on our environment, society, and health.
Below are the detrimental facts about plastic that will make you shocked:
The amount of plastic production globally has doubled during the past 50 years
Edible things like chewing gum contain plastic
The global use of plastic bags is staggering, at 2 million each minute
The recycling rate for overall produced plastics is only 9%
Every single minute, a truckload of plastic is poured into the ocean
By 2050, 99% of seabirds and animals will be relying on plastic
Approximately one million plastic bottles are purchased every minute
95% of plastic pollution in the oceans is carried by 10 rivers of the World
Plastic contributes to 73% of beach garbage worldwide
An average human eats 70,000 microplastics each year
By 2050, the ocean may contain more plastic than fish
Fortunately, we can solve the plastic problem in the simplest way, by reducing its use. Reducing plastic consumption, especially single-use plastic, is an important step in improving our treatment of the environment. In order to create healthy surroundings for everyone, it is necessary to recycle plastic and minimize its usage.
You might be thinking, why is plastic being pushed as the best way to prevent climate change, when plastic is actually a huge contributor to the environmental problem? And why celebrities refuge to eat out of plastic containers?
To get answers of all your queries, watch our complete video series “The Big Oil Industrial Complex” on the platform of  Edge of Wonder at Rise TV.

I laughed so hard when it was revealed that Gorthalax was in the trip as well. Not only is Sandra Lynn there with her ex-husband, her ex-husband's new wife, and her current partner, but her ex-fling is there as well

It just occurred to me that Maglor watched two different people jump with a Silmaril with the intent of taking it with them to their death- one to the earth, and one to the sea.
One became an emblem of hope. The other was lost to despair.

#I didn’t end up going to the rave just stayed in with my buddies and had KFC (( Korean fried chicken )) and laughed til we cried so#it was still a wonderful start to the new year 💞🥰💞#but the fwb wanted pics of my potential rave look so I figured eh I brought the stuff anyways#and now I’m imagining locking eyes with a stranger on the warm and writhing dance floor#the beat thumps and shakes and rattles the air in our breath as the spotlights dance in the reflections of our held gaze#he pushes his way through the crowd with a singular stare and a wicked smile on his face#I smile and turn my back on him arching myself so he knows I am giving what he’s looking for#I take careful steps through the revelry toward the edge where the crowd thins out#I prop myself up on an available stool in a lonely corner of the club as he closes the distance between us#“now I wonder why you dragged me all the way here” he utters in a playful growl “trying to get far away from the crowd?”#I smile and I nod. “obviously. can’t really do what I want with you out there”#his eyes perk up and his smile gives away the desire building inside him. “yeah? why don’t you show me then.”#“I thought you’d never ask” I smirk. I reach down into my pants and pull out my phone#“so this one is blue. he’s the oldest but he’s sooooo sweet. and that’s Eva. my only girl she’s sassy but she loves swea-” he leaves#whaddahell I say demurely whimpering even… whaddahell…#gpoy

The Committee of 300: How They Organize Global Control
The Committee of 300 is a secret agenda that has been under debate for decades. Although its true history and origins are hidden from the world, numerous people have opinions that it has a significant impact on the global economy and political landscape. In 1909, the former minister of Germany, Walther Rathenau, first exposed the darkest propaganda of this group in his newspaper article. According to him, the European economic system was governed by 300 people, who sought power and control over the whole society.
After deep historical research from various whistleblowers and intelligence insiders, Edge of Wonder has uncovered the ultimate goal of this global cabal. This group uses eugenics to carry out its dark plans of controlling everyone on the planet.  
Why do all politicians discuss The New World Order with courtesy? Who is involved in Deep State’s mysterious pyramid? To get answers, keep reading this blog.
Tumblr media
The Origins of the Committee of 300 
In the 18th century, the Committee of 300 was taken into place by a group of the world's most powerful men and women. Their subsequent aim was to preserve their dominion and power over the entire humanity. Their group originally consisted of 300 members, which accounts for its name. But now the group size has been extended, and these members are selected from the 
top echelons of society, including politicians, bankers, business owners, and other pertinent personalities of society. 
According to predictions, during 2020 the Committee had been involved in the emergence of Nazi Germany and the consequent events of the Second World War to consolidate its influence and power. They arrange clandestine meetings to discuss their plans and strategies for shaping the future of the world.
Deep State Pyramid Structure: The Control & Resources Behind It
As per our deep research, the power connections such as governments, companies, banks, energy sectors, think tanks, media, and secret societies are ruling behind the Deep State. 
Human Resource / Labor Unit Control
The following governs the Deep state’s pyramid structure:
Government - Certain government institutions and officials act in ways that go against their established norms, potentially prioritizing their own interests over public service. This behavior goes against the principles of good governance and democracy.
News Media -  The news media plays a highly contested and controversial role under the Deep State. With the support of the deep state, certain individuals or organizations manipulate narratives and control the information being presented to the public for their own sake. This would be antithetical to the principles of independent and free media. In 1983, 50 media organizations were working under the deep state, but in 2022 the number was reduced to 5 because this cabal forced them out of their agenda.
Research Institutes - Research institutes work on the concepts of scientific integrity and academic freedom without any political interference. However, sometimes, political pressure impact the research of institutes, particularly on sensitive topics such as public health, environmental concern, and national security. This may compromise the impartiality of research, which is crucial for the effectiveness and credibility of scientific findings.
Legal Enterprises - The Deep State exerts pressure over legal enterprises and maneuvers principles of equality, justice, and impartiality for their own sake. They control the legislative process and use law enforcement agencies to target their opponents or protect their own members. Such practices erode the liability of the legal system and threaten the stability of society.
World Financial & Natural Resources Control
Big Oil - The oil industry comprises several companies that operate in a competitive environment under the propaganda of the Deep State. They are using Petrochemicals, and plastics in particular, as the next big thing for growing their business. 
Pharmaceutical Companies - This tyrannical agenda is stopping you from becoming healthy. For example, in Covid, everything was closed except Mcdonalds, so you may eat cheap food and then buy their expensive drugs and medications. 
Global Think Tank
NGOs - Under the deep state, some NGOs are influenced by political agendas and corporate interests. These NGOs engage in covert activities, promote biased narratives, and spread false information to achieve their dark goals. So it is necessary to ensure accountability, transparency, and independence of NGOs to prevent their manipulation by secret power structures.
World Health Organization - The World Health Organization (WHO) is a global organization that aims to advance public health. It provides coordination and addresses global health issues, promotes research in health, and establishes standards and guidelines. It is accountable to its member states, who work together to shape the priorities and policies of the organization.
Rich and Powerful Sub-Family Elite
The people and power govern the German Thule Society, Club of Rome, Bilderberg Group, Freemasonry, and Tavistock institute to come up with their dark plans for welfare, schools, government, and public policies. These groups work under the Deep State to accomplish its secret narratives.
The Committee of 300
Who is really part of the Committee of 300? Through redacted CIA documents and information from intelligence insiders, we found that the Committee of 300 includes the members such as:
Royalty Leaders
Heads of Government Organizations
Former Presidents
Politicians and Billionaires
Crown Council of 13
There are 13 hidden powerful families, occasionally known as the Illuminati, controlling the entire world affairs. These include Rockefellers, Kennedys, Budys, Rothschilds, etc. The illuminati control various aspects of society such as politics, law, natural resources, education foreign policies, media, food, media, food, and even economies. These families are using various scientific engineering techniques to control the global population. These include vaccines, viruses, and genetically modified food.
What’s the Actual Goal of this Globalist Agenda? 
The goals and operations of the Committee of 300 remain shrouded in secrecy. However, the group has a "dark goal" or agenda that involves exerting control over the world's economic and political systems for its own benefit. They aim to manipulate global events and sustain conflicts to maintain their power and influence. 
According to many insiders their ultimate plan involves:
To create a one-world government
Dispose of any religion
The Potential Impact of the Committee of 300
There is no concrete evidence present to support the existence of the Committee of 300. It is a secretive agenda composed of people from various fields, such as politics, banking, royalty, and media. 
If this agenda holds substantial power and control, it can influence global events and shape them in various ways. 
They can manipulate the entire global economy to benefit their own interests.
They can potentially dictate international organizations and governments, with a profound impact on World policies.
Wondering what’s the ultimate goal of the Deep State? How do these secret societies employ eugenics to meet their objectives? Watch the new episode of the Edge of Wonder series “Deep State” to uncover the bone-bending facts.

I love how Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse said “Anyone can be Spider-Man”. I love how it inspired everyone to imagine their own Spider-People, saving the day in their own universes, with all kinds of cool, interesting personalities and aesthetics and mutations and life stories and relationships. We all put pieces of our soul into these homemade heroes. We had fun. We found community. And then Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse said, “Wow, great job! You’ve really taken our message to heart. Well, get ready for even more of everything you liked from the first movie and a new message to complement the first. Anyone can be Spider-Man… and anyone can be pulled into a cult.”
So now we all have to contemplate whether our lovingly crafted heroes would ever be on Team Mandatory Trauma Because Martyr Complex or not and why.

" "there's these caves all over studded with rocks. they'd glow cuz of the magic they'd absorbed, a kinda natural phenomena from being in close quarters with monsters. we got used to wishing on them like how monsters used to wish on stars, we even made constellations like how humans made them. they're real pretty."
The way he speaks is soothing but clipped, like a teacher to a student. But then it edges into something else, more natural. More him.
"nothin' really prepared me for the real thing though. nothin'." " [TSOT Chapter 3]

I love that Viggo is also so animated with his hands. If he and Hiccup would have a normal conversation about things, they would both just sit there, hands waving, pointing.

sometimes i want to reach through the screen and shake sabo by the shoulders because. god. there's just so much going on with him.
he's first introduced through the veil of luffy's memories- here he's just another feral jungle kid, sticking it out with ace and luffy, the 'nicer' brother in young luffy's eyes. and then boom. you find out he's a runaway noble trying to escape his abusive, neglectful family- and this changes nothing, they still get to become sworn brothers, but just as quickly as this is resolved, his asshole of a dad takes the three of them hostage. and what does sabo do? he gives up the little sliver of freedom he'd fought for, is willing to become miserable and lonely again if it means ace and luffy are spared. and then he comes home to find that in his absence, his parents have already found a replacement! great!
and he doesn't even get to address how fucked up that is, because stelly runs his mouth and now sabo's too busy trying to figure out how to stop his brothers and their home from getting burnt to the ground. he never gets to give them a proper goodbye- he exhausts himself trying to reach them, but he can't because. you know. he's ten. so where does this leave sabo? ten years old, with nowhere to go- he sets out to sea to try and start over, and for the crime of wanting to escape a terrible life, he's punished with an explosion to the face. he loses his memories, his brothers lose him- and so the cycle continues.
then the army saves him, takes him in; he's essentially a child soldier, with how prodigious of a fighter he is from the get-go. but hey, he thinks he's finally found his footing, even if his past's a blur to him- then it all comes flooding back. in the worst way possible. he sees his brother's corpse and he remembers, but it doesn't matter, does it? he's too late, ace is gone, and sabo's lost ten years of a life he could have shared with his brothers. we don't even know how (if, even) he recovers from this- except for a single passing statement from koala, asking him if he's 'had that dream again' because he'd been crying in his sleep. this is never brought up or addressed again. great!plus, we never do find out if getting blown up at the ripe old age of ten could have left any lasting fire-related trauma; and if it does, what does that mean for sabo, who's pretty much made of it, now?
both of these questions are answered at once- sabo treats the fire as if it's ace. it's ace's legacy he's carrying on, and it's ace he seeks freedom for. he copes by making sure ace lives on in his flames, and how can he ever hate the fire living in him if that fire is all he has left of the brother he never got to see again?
i just have to wonder about him, because he's got so many Issues that just. don't ever get addressed? every time we see him deal with his grief (episode of sabo, his own retelling of events in dressrosa) we never really discover anything about him. i wonder how it felt to finally remember the childhood that eluded him, just to find out he was an unwanted, replacable child. how he feels, living with the knowledge that he could have done something to save ace, that he'd failed to remember the two people he loved the most? i wonder just how terribly that guilt must weigh down on him- because where luffy's already begun to heal, sabo still sees ace in everything he does. his title of flame emperor is a direct callback to ace's final attack in his fight against blackbeard. he talks to his goddamn fire like his brother is still in front of him, which is sweet and heartbreaking and, considering his backlog of unaddressed trauma... incredibly unhealthy. i know these will probably be left unresolved for the sake of moving the story forward- but god, sabo, are you okay?
