About a week ago, the UN Human Rights Czar in Geneva issued a stern warning āĀ āUp to 80 million people will be plunged into hunger if climate targets are not metā.
These are the words ofĀ Volker Turk, the head of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, Switzerland. He spoke at a Human Rights event, and highlighted as principal cause for this coming calamity ā what else ā āclimate changeā. He said,
āextreme weather events were having a significant negative impact on crops, herds and ecosystems, prompting further concerns about global food availability.ā
This is immediately proven by never-before-in-history extreme floods in Vermont, USA, by extreme droughts in Europe and Central ā Western USA and by enormous, never-before experienced ā forest fires in Canada. More is already announced ā extreme Monsoon rains in India, and possibly Bangladesh. What a coincidence. Except, there are no coincidences. Droughts and gigantic flashfloods, in calculated interchange. No coincidences.
