The woman who was arrested and to whom your guest was referring is Meng Wanzhou, the board deputy chairperson and daughter of the founder of the Chinese multinational technology corporation Huawei. She was arrested in 2018 by Canadian police per request of the US Government. This then led to the arrest/detention of two Canadians who were doing business in China.

Couple of thoughts I had listening to this podcast:

- maybe humans should stop screwing around with stuff about which we have very little knowledge, like weather and in general how this world works because no matter how “intelligent” we are or aspire to be, that in no way is equivalent to wisdom, which is critically missing.

- interesting what she thinks about what viruses are. Not sure if you know Zach Bush, but he has a radically different understanding/theory about the importance and value of viruses as being the communication wing of the biome whose function is to create as much diversity into play once toxic levels in the environment (e.g. as CO2 levels rise in the autumn months as trees go dormant and stop collecting this from the environment).

- from a spiritual perspective and my meagre understanding of such things, not only do we individually create our reality, we collectively create our physical world - including our weather. And these realities are created from beliefs which hold much more power than the puny human actions imo. Just thought I’d throw that in, apropos of nothing.
