Sorry CNN, Regardless of Human Activity, Coastlines Grow and Retreat
CNN published a story about beachfront homes in North Carolina succumbing to coastal erosion. CNN blamed ‘climate change,’ causing rising seas, for North Carolina’s coastal erosion. This blame is misplaced. Coastal erosion and changing sea levels will inevitably occur—sometimes even to extreme degrees—regardless of human carbon dioxide emissions. Coastlines change as part of natural and […] The post Sorry CNN, Regardless of Human Activity, Coastlines Grow and Retreat appeared first on ClimateRealism. read more

History of Congo: Forbidden to be Independent
By Eduardo Galeano (Mirrors: Stories of Almost Everyone) In the middle of 1960, the Congo, until then a Belgian colony, celebrated its independence. Speech followed speech, and the audience was melting from heat and boredom. Belgium, a strict teacher, warned of the dangers of freedom. The Congo, grateful pupil, promised to behave. Then Patrice Lumumba's speech exploded and ruined the party. He spoke out against the "empire of silence," and through him the silenced found a voice.
