White Paper, March 3, 2022: The Four Horsemen of Apocalypse Are on the Way - ‘Hunger‘ & ‘Pestilence‘ & ‘War‘ & ‘Death‘ published by ISPSW, Berlin, Issue No. 902, Feb. 2023.
The Four Horsemen of Apocalypse hunger (1.1 billion people), pestilence (Corona virus), war (Putin’s war), and unnatural death are on the way across the globe, and unfortunately at the same time.
It has been thought, above all in western countries, that these Four Horsemen would never appear again, neither now nor in the future. Nevertheless, they are bringing destruction, heartache, disease, suffering, and death to many millions of people.
While this critical synopsis outlines the omission, deception, self-deception, weakness, and unpreparedness among western societies, it also draws attention to a range of measures that aim to successfully counteract and eliminate the Four Horsemen.

Key note lecture: 2022/23: Global Trends to Improve Food and Human Health (2025/2052) - Dual Use of Food: Medicine or Weapon? – Life or Death? - - Fossil Fuel Free Food Feed Farming Future (paper in prep.), 12th IFSDAA International Conference on: Resource Management for Food, Agriculture, Environment and Health Sustainability, Mahatma Gandhi-Haus, Göttingen, Germany, September 14-16, 2022.
Since February 24, 2022 global food security is under heavy fire and everyone is challenged to safeguard food security in order to avoid hunger and death.
Improving crops and crop production are key challenges today and in future to safeguard healthy life of all people living on earth.
Science, agriculture, food production/manufacturing and health care must go hand in hand in a synergistic way. Crossbreds from these essential sectors using cutting-edge genome editing technologies will enable to address successfully the following individual and global all over all targets by 2052:
  • elimination of hunger and malnutrition
  • avoidance of social unrests, conflicts, migration, and war
  • improvement of health and life
  • protection of the environment
  • implementation of Fossil-Fuel Free Farming (Fn)

Beginning of 2022, worldwide there are 298,915,721 confirmed cases of COVID19 and 5,469,303 deaths so far from the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak since January 2020. Up to now, globally a total of 9,126,987,353 vaccine doses have been administered (WHO, 1/2022). A virus named COVID-19 has brought and continue to bring the world on its knees. The immune system of millions of people was/is not strong enough to tackle this virus. National restrictions, lockdowns and safety instructions were implemented in order to slow mote the pandemic. Functioning and registered pharmaceuticals or vaccines to tackle the problem were not on the market beginning 2021. But then, BioNTech & Pfizer have brought an Anti-COVID-19 vaccine to the market within 11 months only! The world is forced to foster solutions to overcome the actual pandemic and to be better prepared for coming ones.
