More than a hundred dolphins have been found dead in the Brazilian Amazon amid an historic drought and record-high water temperatures that in places have exceeded 102 degrees Fahrenheit [38.8 °C].
The dead dolphins were all found in Lake Tefé over the past seven days, according to the Mamirauá Institute, a research facility funded by the Brazilian Ministry of Science.
The institute said such a high number of deaths was unusual and suggested record-high lake temperatures and an historic drought in the Amazon may have been the cause.
The news is likely to add to the concerns of climate scientists over the effects human activity and extreme droughts are having on the region.
My theory is that the corporate oligarchy want climate change to cull billions from the human population, right at the time when hundreds of millions of jobs are being eliminated through robotics and AI.
There aren’t enough resources to support the current developed world population of < billion, so another several billion people at that level of consumption is literally impossible. Demand will dramatically exceed supply this century.
There will be global resource shortages and massive inflation either way, but in a 2-4c world they can “let” billions die without firing a shot. They have their prepper bunkers stocked and ready to roll for when shit hits the fan, so they assume their wealth will ensure they prevail regardless of how bad things get. It doesn’t matter that no-one can escape ecological collapse. All that matters is that they believe they can.
Why are they always bitching about “low birthrate”? Seems contradicting.
You need the workers procreating, otherwise who will serve as the army, farmers and slaves?
They still need to maintain concern for short-term profits, and having less workers and consumers doesn’t help.
