Twitter and the New York Times are running this story about fires in the Pantanal Wetlands in Brazil, saying they are “worsened by climate change.”
Here is the same story from 1996. The fires are set intentionally to renew the shrivelled grass.
“the rain sometimes vanishes for four months at a time, it is a different world, parched and dusty and thick with smoke from fires set in an effort to renew the shriveled grass.”
Three days ago, Time Magazine published this article saying that the Swedish COVID response is a disaster, and that they have failed to reduce their coronavirus mortality rates.
Why the Swedish Model for Fighting COVID-19 Is a Disaster | Time
Sweden currently has one of the lowest mortality rates in the world and it is going down, even as it rises in the rest of Europe.

Total deaths per million in Sweden is less than many places which did hard lockdowns.
And deaths were much lower than forecast.
On October 5, I posted an article titled “Tokyo Island Of Hachijojima Has Seen No Warming Trend For September Since 1915!“, using data from the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), and I told you the island is almost rural.
Now I will show the mean annual temperatures in the island using the data on NASA website.
If you look at the chart below dating back to 1907 in the GHCN V3 Unadjusted data, you won’t find any significant change in the temperature trend.
In fact, according to GHCN V3 Unadjusted, the island has seen no warming trend since 1927.
But then NASA changed the unadjusted data in the GHCN V4 dataset to make a warming trend.
Even Unadjusted data, there is gap between V3 and V4.
The GHCN V4 adj – homogenized data show a spectacular warming trend.
This sort of thing is well-known among the climate realists.

“Why The WHO Faked A Pandemic The agency needed to bounce back after the avian flu embarrassment.”
“The mildest pandemics of the 20th century killed at least a million people.”

COVID-19 just reached mild epidemic level.
This is deceptive however. The average age of death from COVID-19 is about the same as the average age of death from all other causes, and the vast majority of deaths had multiple comorbidities. So many of the COVID-19 deaths were people who would have died even without COVID-19.
