El Niño is not a recent development,
at least in Latin America ,New research posits an ancient desert wall in
northern Peru was built to protect precious farmlands and canals from the
ravages of El nino floods,
“These phases are now known as El
Niño — Spanish for "The Boy," a reference to the child Jesus —
because they bring heavy rain to the region around Christmastime every
few years. “
Earth Day is a misnomer.
It
used to be known as Earth Day. The United Nations has gone a step further and
re-named it The International Mother Earth Day.
The green ideology behind this move could hardly have been more
obvious.
Some would even say that the mushroom is our brother.
Some others want to give apes and rivers the same rights we have.
The post-Christian world wants its share of holy
days, such as Darwin Day and Earth Day.
