Powers of Mother Earth - The Facts
The Wrath of Gaia features a complex mixture of related Earth sciences, which combine with ferocious intensity to provoke the end of the world as we know it. Although bordering on the edges of scientific understanding, all
hypothesis surrounding the destruction of life on this Earth are based in solid scientific fact. The main points with references, are outlined below.
- The Bushehr nuclear weapons and storage facility is fiction.
- The sheering of continental plate boundaries is extremely rare, but not unprecedented.
- One premise the author uses, is that carboniferous deposits laid down during the Carboniferous Age, are not all neatly pooled together into what we know of as oil and gas field. The tenet is used that underground corridors of
deposits link the main sites together, allowing for the ingress of magma into the bottom of oil and gas fields.
What we learn near the end of Book Three, is that the Great Ogre and his clones of the Last, were responsible for the initial cyber attack on the plant, and no doubt the timing was deliberate. The Iranian response was also
heightened by the presence of clones. These factors exacerbated an already critical situation, but one that has already occurred in real life.
The author wishes to make plain, he has no axe to grind regarding either Israel or Iran, and is not interested in their religious beliefs; he used the geographical location simply because these countries suited the plot of
this Part of Book Three, and the overall message of the trilogy as a whole.

Climate Changes over history
Background information:
“About 55,000 years ago, the weather began to fluctuate wildly from extreme cold conditions to mild cold and back in a matter of a few decades. Neanderthal bodies were well suited for survival in a cold climate—their barrel chests
and stocky limbs stored body heat better than the Cro-Magnons.
However, the rapid fluctuations of weather caused ecological changes to which the Neanderthals could not adapt. The weather changes were so rapid that within a lifetime, plants and animals someone grew up with would be replaced
by completely different plants and animals. Neanderthal's ambush techniques would have failed as grasslands replaced trees. A large number of Neanderthals would have died during these fluctuations, which peaked about 30,000 years
ago.
‘Note: That this date correlates with the arrival of Aborigines in Australia, and presumably Maoris in New Zealand. The DG Islanders also left about the same time, and are distant cousins of these people.’
Studies on Neanderthal body structures have shown that they needed more energy to survive than any other species. Their energy needs were up to 100-350 calories more per day comparing to projected anatomically modern human males
weighing 68.5 kg and females 59.2 kg. When food became scarce, this difference may have played a major role in the Neanderthals' extinction.”

Crude Oil
Crude oil begins to burn naturally around 230°C depending on composition (135° Celsius to 275° Celsius). It can of course burn far hotter and above 1,600 Celsius.

Nuclear Science
"The Natanz Nuclear Facility, located some 30 km NNW from the town (33°43′N 51°43′E) near a major highway, is generally recognized as Iran's central facility for enrichment with over 19,000 centrifuges currently operational
and nearly half of them being fed with uranium hexafluoride."

2.25.2 Nuclear Warhead Yield – from Wikipedia. 1 gigaton = 1, 000, million kilos of TNT (trinitrotoluene). The world’s largest known atomic multi-facet
bomb, is the Russian Antanov AN 225 at a whopping 1.3 gigatons, although it could never be delivered as such. However, as in the text above, something like a nuclear explosion could ignite it.
Today, most nuclear warheads would normally be measured in Integers and fractions of Megatons. This strike was extremely excessive. The results: Damning.

Further Reading
The science was originally revealed in Book Three, a relatively long and technical presentation by the Mexicans and Ali. This was abridged for the printed and eBooks, but is still available for those who wish to know more
about what actually occurred.
