This is an good read ----Take the time to read it ....TO THE END !
Something to consider…
On the 10th of February in China,
108 persons succumbed to the Coronavirus
BUT, on the same day, world wide:
26283 people died of cancer
24641 people died of heart disease
4300 people died of diabetes
and, on that day, suicide, unfortunately, took more
lives than did the virus by 28 times
Moreover, on a daily average, mosquitoes kill 2740 people
and, people kill 1,300 of their fellow humans
And snakes knock off 137 people per day as well…
So…take a deep breath, turn off NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN,
MSNBC, CNBC, PBS & NPR... and wash your hands
You need to know this as well..
The Arctic Ocean is warming , icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water
too hot according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from US Consulate at Bergen, Norway.
Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and
hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic ocean.
Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes.
Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.
Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many
points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.
Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts
which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.
Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coast cities
uninhabitable.
