What do you know about the flooding in central Europe? [1]

While most people in the U.S are focused on childless cat ladies and immigrants eating cats there is a lot of real stuff happening in the world. Check out the flooding in central Europe. What about the fires in Peru.

Newsweek magazine thinks that reported fires in Rostov Oblast is something serious to report on. They said “media outlets” reported 50 fires breaking out on Sunday. I wonder what media outlets they are reporting from. I’m thinking fake Russian propaganda outlets. The FIRMS image below does not show many hot spots in the Rostov Oblast of Russia. Kind of difficult to fact check this but FIRMS says a lot. But look at Eastern Ukraine and the Kursk and Bryansk Oblast border regions of Russia.

Anyway, my points are that it is difficult to trust news sources anymore and what the world should be focused on is climate change, not fascists spewing hate and making war. Yeah, Putin and Trump need to be taken care of but we need to be looking at the bigger picture at the same time.

Edit: forgot to include Newsweek link
