Top UN official blames global warming for massacresDidn't you know? It's all YOUR
fault.
I'm not even sure where to put this one, politics or
environmentalism.
THE slaughter in Darfur was triggered by global climate change and that more such conflicts may be on the horizo, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon says in an article published today. "The Darfur conflict began as an ecological crisis, arising at least in part from climate change,'' Mr Ban said in a Washington Post opinion column. UN statistics showed that rainfall declined some 40 per cent over the past two decades, he said, as a rise in Indian Ocean temperatures disrupted monsoons. "This suggests that the drying of sub-Saharan Africa derives, to some degree, from man-made global warming,'' the South Korean diplomat wrote. "It is no accident that the violence in Darfur erupted during the drought,'' Mr Ban said in the Washington daily. How irresponsible can you get? Not one word about other factors. Not one word about PAST droughts and their effects. No, it is all because of carbon dioxide. Not one word about puppet movements meant to destabilize governments. Not one word about the Arab supremacy movement. Pah. The United Nations proves it's worth again. Posted: Sun - June 17, 2007 at 01:16 PM
