Testing of the Maia Hypothesis

Testing of the Maia Hypothesis
Testing will be done in steps to verify by links to scientific research and accepted by the modern scientific community.
1. Statement of hypothesis: GCR (Galactic Cosmic Rays) are the prime agent of Climate Change and Evolution of species on Earth.
2. Above statement will now be examined by following steps of Logic and Reason.
3. Basis of Life on Earth: The utilization of Solar Energy by biological organisms to produce complex carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins: to use the Solar Energy by means of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to produce sugars as a means of cellular respiration.
4. Mammals such as Humans are dependent on autotrophs (plants and phytoplankton) to produce Oxygen to breathe, food to eat and a myriad of other essential products. Humans cannot live on Earth without a healthy ecosystem with autotrophs at the base of the ecosystem.
5. Photosynthesis by autotrophs produces sugars and Oxygen as well as other products from Carbon dioxide and Water vapor in the atmosphere, water or aqueous medium in the soil.
6. Heterotrophs such as bacteria use a Carbon source such as long chain Carbon in organic matter (humus, dead plant and animals) and Oxygen or a metal to produce Carbon dioxide and water.
7. The Sun is the prime source of Energy for planet Earth and the intensity of this energy is somewhat constant. The variation in the solar flux has not been demonstrated to account for direct changes in the climate of the Earth.
8. The Sun varies in the production of Sunspots through cycles. The Solar wind is far greater at periods of high Sunspot numbers.
9. During periods of low Sunspot number, the solar wind is minimal allowing GCR to penetrate and maximize its flux upon planet Earth.
10. GCR has profound effect upon living organisms. GCR at high levels cause mutations and death in organisms. Organisms such as marine bacteria and zooplankton adjust to high levels of GCR by migrating deeper into the Ocean away from the surface.
11. Phytoplankton that are protected by a calcium or silicon shell are protected from the damaging effects of GCR. Thus diatoms and coccolithophores can stay near the surface and gather solar energy for maximum reproduction potential (Blooms).
12. Phytoplankton have been shown to produce DMS at high levels during these blooms of reproduction. DMS is a prime agent in the production of aerosols for cloud formation over the Ocean.
13. Clouds composed mostly of water vapor from aerosol nuclei are the most important cooling factors in the climate system. Trees also produce aerosols for cloud nuclei. So clouds are formed above forests as well as alga blooms.
14. A disruption of this ecological process will result in climate change and warming as the clouds will disappear.
15. Removal of forests will result in oxidation of carbon in the soil, leaching of soil organic matter into the Ocean, heating up of planet surface, disappearance of clouds over land, wholesale destruction of ecosystem as the base is removed.
16. Leaching of Carbon in the form of organic matter into the Ocean will cause an imbalance in the ecosystem favoring the marine bacteria. The chemistry of the Ocean will change as it does in the rivers as the BOD (biological oxygen demand) will increase as Oxygen is depleted by organic matter added and bacteria thrive in the mutated environment.
17. Pollutants such as nitrogenous and phosphoric wastes, heavy metals, trash, oil spills, pesticides, industrial chemicals and nuclear radiation impede the growth of phytoplankton in the Ocean.
18. Mankind cannot alter the Sunspot cycle but Mankind can restore the Forests and maintain the Ocean waters pristine for the plankton.
19. The problems of Climate Change lie not in the excess Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere but the Loss of Carbon in the form of Organic matter from the soil and the vegetation upon the surface of the Earth.
20. The problems of Pollution lie not in the excess Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere but in the discharges of toxins into the environment. Power plants: aerosols, soot, ash, heavy metals; Industrial plants: heavy metals, various chemicals, sewage; Residential: sewage, pesticides; Factory farms: pesticides, leaching of soil; Nuclear plants: radiation leaks, heated water; these are but a few of the problems civilization faces everyday.
21. This imbalance of Carbon from the soil into the water will cause the heterotrophic bacteria to be established as the base of the ecosystem and replacing the autotrophs. As the decomposers take over the planet the Earth will no longer support Mammalian life forms such as humans.
22. The impetus for Life on planet Earth arises from outside the Solar system in distant galaxies. GCR come from regions light years away from Earth. GCR have by far more intense and greater amount of flux of cosmic rays than our nearby star, the Sun. This radiation has been proven to cause life changing mutations in the genetic code of living organisms. These mutations and organisms adapting to GCR flux is the mechanism by which life forms adapt to changes in the environment.
23. Mankind cannot alter the GCR flux to planet Earth. Mankind can allow the plants and phytoplankton to thrive by restoring the environment.
