Around half of fertile women in the Arctic Island were fitted with IUDs or given hormone birth control shots. From the 1960’s and into the early 1990’s, Denmark imposed an inhuman sterilization program on Greenlandic Inuit women, with the purpose of limiting population growth in the self-governing territory. Now, against the background of Donald J. Trump’s decision to control the island, the Danish are under fire for their mistreatment of the indigenous populations. Two separate reports investigating the forcible contraception of thousands of Indigenous women and girls are divided over a core question: does it constitute genocide? “The Inuit victims, many of them teenagers at the time, said they were either fitted with intrauterine contraceptive devices, known as IUDs or coils, or given a hormonal birth control injection. They were not told details about the procedure, or did not give their consent.” Recently, a man who goes by the name “The Honest Broker” created a US Extreme Weather and Climate Change Dashboard that “follows the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) framework for detecting a change in climate in the context of internal variability. This dashboard tracks 38 variables associated with 8 types of extremes: heat waves, cold extremes, tornadoes, flooding, drought, winter storms, wildfire, and hurricanes.” And what was the result? In terms of long-term change, there was no detected change in five of the eight categories. Of the remaining three categories, one (cold extremes) is decreasing, and only two are currently increasing (heat waves and wildfires). That’s a very different story than you will hear from the mainstream media! Anytime there’s a weather event—a hurricane, tornado, flood, heat wave, etc.—it’s always blamed on man-made climate change. But the data doesn’t support that hype! Yes, the climate is changing. It’s changed in the past, and it will continue to change in the future. There’s been climate change ever since Noah’s Flood. But the idea that it’s man-made and catastrophic, leading to an apocalyptic scenario in just a few years if we don’t do something dramatic, isn’t supported by the data. We believe that God created the climate. He made it intelligently and designed it for life to flourish. Yes, it varies over time (the global Flood of Noah’s day was the most dramatic climate change of all time, resulting in the Ice Age), but it’s relatively stable and self-correcting. And that’s what we actually observe! In Britain, 35-year-old Simeon Chandra put a simple message on the sides of his car using temporary tape. The message read: “Jesus loves you.” When his insurance company found out, they demanded that he remove it. They also required a dated photograph proving it was gone if he wanted his insurance coverage to continue. Chandra pointed out that all kinds of messages, flags and slogans are displayed on vehicles. “But when a Christian puts a peaceful message on his own car, suddenly it appears to become a problem.” He is now receiving help from the Christian Legal Centre. ... this is where religious freedom can begin to erode—when ordinary Christians are pressured to keep their faith out of public view. Christians should pay attention when simply identifying with Christ begins to carry a penalty. In other parts of the world, that penalty is already much higher. The Chinese Communist Party confirmed on Monday that it had subjected ten people to “administration penalties” over the past week for allegedly spreading “online rumors” and “misinformation” about the ongoing mudslide and flooding disaster in Tibet. This revelation followed widespread reports that the Chinese government had censored some of the most horrifying videos of mudslides destroying entire communities, roads, bridges, and other critical infrastructure in Nepal and Tibet, leading critics to accuse Beijing of trying to hide the scale of the devastation in occupied Tibet. China, meanwhile, has confirmed 546 missing people as of Sunday and, shockingly, only 16 confirmed deaths. Only Chinese state propaganda videos, which mostly feature communist rescue workers appearing to engage in emergency work, are reportedly accessible within China. More storms and flooding are possible at the Grand Canyon following a major flash flood that has left one person dead and about 15 others missing or unaccounted for. The flooding Saturday in Bright Angel Creek, which flows into the river, led to more than 60 people being airlifted from the depths of the canyon. Parth Desai was hiking through a narrow passage in Bright Angel Canyon with fellow physicians and a park ranger when heavy rain started falling Saturday. “We saw the creek flood, waterfalls coming up out of nowhere, boulders, mud, landslides happening everywhere,” he said. Later, as they made their way toward Phantom Ranch, a colleague shouted “Up, Up, Up, Up!” as a 4-foot (1-meter) debris wall headed toward them and they ran up into a patch of cacti, he said. They were rescued by helicopter late Saturday after making it to the Phantom Ranch area, he said.
