I wonder how Stalin's apologist for the NYT back in the 1930s would report this story?

His analysis was quite simple: “MOVE TO WHERE THE FOOD IS!!!”
When In doubt, blame climate change/global warming.
Can someone then tell me why there was famine in Ethiopia during 1984-85 drought, but not Sudan? Here were Bob Geldof and other wealthy celebrities telling us to give money to help the poor people in that country (Ethiopia) but did not bother telling us that during that same time, it’s government spent millions on celebrating communism and let boatloads of grain that was meant for it’s starving citizens to rot away before it was distributed.

The data set they never mine is that tribalist animism and mohamadism vs Christianity and it’s affects on wealth, pestulance and weather patterns.
Under that pie chart display is the very disturbing data set that there is a God, and He is very much alive.
Too bad three guys sitting around a campfire drinking massa in Africa don’t come up with it. Though with the solar panel water pipes I suspect a water pipe had a bit to do with the daydream.
Another NYT editorial punishing our intelligence.
“EARTH EXPLODES: WOMEN AND MINORITIES HURT MOST!”
Always start with a big lie, and that is the lie. That region dried out about 8000 years ago. Rainfall in that region is solar-driven in cycles lasting 1000's of years.
More “global warming” mythology.
Back in the 1960’s the University of Arizona opened a research center called “Office of Arid Lands Studies.” One of the topics researched was “desertification” of areas in northern Africa such as southern Sudan. One of the findings was that this was being caused by an increasing population who with their goats and sheep were overgrazing the land so that native grasses were consumed. This led to exposure of the desert sand which blew causing expansion of the desert. Obviously it was helped by cyclical periods of drought, but it was the native population which caused most of their own problems, not man-caused global warming.
The same thing happened in the US in the late 1800’s when cattle grazing caused removal of grasses and when summer downpours hit the denuded land, it caused extensive erosion causing many of the deep arroyos now present in the Southwest. It repeated itself in the 1930’s when dryland farming removed native grassland and the soil was picked up and blown with the high springtime winds, resulting in the “dust bowl” of Oklahoma and surrounding areas.
So this is not new and in the US cattle grazing is restricted to what the land can support, and irrigation and contour farming has helped agriculture return in Oklahoma.
I don’t know about the 2/3 right but cold will really be something to worry about.
They picked the wrong one - somehow I think they will smoothly change horses with no hint of shame or embarrassment.
I think the over population has caused a run on any available vegetation and they then wonder why the ground won't hold water..
I'm sorry to say that the forces of nature will correct things...
Hotter, colder, wetter, dryer, windier, less windy, cloudier, less cloudy, it doesn’t matter. Whenever bad weather occurs anywhere in the world it is because of Global Warming.
It’s Trump’s fault. Womyn and minorities hardest hit.
” Though with the solar panel water pipes I suspect a water pipe had a bit to do with the daydream.”
Even new technology in that arena.
Drill water wells, or channel water
where it’s needed. Desert areas of
the southwest are able to flourish
using such methods. Where I live,
we’re lucky to get 18” of
precipitation a year.
Climate change is a perpetual and ever ongoing fact. The Sahara desert was a tropical rain forest only 6000 years ago, and I’m fairly sure they were not all driving SUVs during that time period. Only fools think that man can have that much of an effect on the climate.
Kenya, the home of Kitum Cave from which AIDS, Marburg virus, Ebola and Bleeding Eye disease came (and probably a few others that we haven’t heard of).
This is what a sh!thole country is.
Yes and lip-disks are actually 30 giga-byte disk drives.
Many thousands of years ago the Sahara region was well watered with areas of forest and savannah. It is now a desert. Many thousands if years ago there was up to a mile of ice over a third of the North American continent. The ice is mostly gone. All of this happened with no appreciable human input. If it is indeed warming we have little or nothing to do with it. We couldn’t affect it more than a pinprick no matter how hard we tried.
