We all have mutation repair systems. They are little understood. Not only do we not understand them, we cannot measure their effectiveness or their history.
While cosmic rays and background radiation are unchanged, our biological responses are diminishing.
That means more cancer, and more evolution.
Humans are evolving more rapidly than ever before. Usain Bolt. Einstein. Aspergers
Meanwhile animals are as well, but we aren’t noticing. Crows. Primates. Dolphins. Cats. Ants.
Animals can communicate and there has been something they are very good at – keeping secrets
And today they are evolving and hiding it from us.
This is Planet of the Apes but 10x more subtle. Across all species.
The autistics are in the middle. They notice and they side with the animals (for the most part, there are defectors). They coordinate via old school, paper messages, offline.
Factory farmers are noticing.
Autistics are growing in political power = Greta. The government in league with mainstream media demonizes them.
Pagans are the growing religion. Ditto from MSM.
Animals are noticing the change in climate. They are seeing the actions of humans. They are seeing causation. And they are deciding to fight.
A pagan (non stereotypical, not a red haired witch, not a child, perhaps an elderly ethnic accountant in a big 4), an autistic (recluse, creating the most perfect vegetable ever (sweet without sugar, healthy, but is like mashed potato), and an owl. The owl can’t talk, but it seeks out these 2 humans and communicates non-verbally
The owl has uniquely evolved to notice patterns and inter connectivity. It introduces evolved beings to each other (they have great speed and vision and are “wise”)
Premise: Pagans, autistics and animals commit guerrilla warfare to stop climate change. In doing so they announce evolution and cooperation between humans, animals (and, later, plants, funghi and slime mold)
This construct can address every current political problem, and promote leftish ideals through popular culture like never before.
We need 3 incredibly strong and diverse characters
The cause will identify themselves via misspellings. Learned offline, each week, a misspelled word online will identify believers. Stronge. Chaiste. Govermnent
The evolved are few and not representative of their species, the rest do not get them. They are isolated amongst their own, but find comradeship with their like in other species.
The battle has 2 fronts.
- Science that challenges corporate profits
- Monkeywrenching to stop “progress”
Throw in some inter-species romance?
Birds act in flocks
Ants build stuff
Dolphins stage protests
Primates start sign languaging to each other
Trees communicate their inability to help, but one day they will
Government troops spraying and stomping on ants
Experimented primates escaping and hiding with friendly humans, guided by owls.
Dolphins and killer whales taking down navy vessels that use sonar
Orangutans monkeywrenching equipment destroying their habitat
Mice scaring people from their homes
Fruit trees on strike, no fruit
Male cows sheep etc on factory farms refusing to fornicate
Birds pooping on people on purpose
Corporations decide to destroy nature to maintain profits
War
Very end: slime mold are the alien observers and take action
