«Breaking News» Al Gore sees national emergency in climate change-related drought causing Central American refugees

Former Vice President Al Gore issued a chilling warning after connecting the dots between droughts related to climate change in Central America and migrant caravans bound for America.


'If you want a definitive ranking of the most serious emergencies we're facing, there's no doubt in my mind that the climate crisis is number one on the list,' Gore told host Mark McKinnon on the most recent episode of the Showtime docu-series The Circus.


Calling President Trump's border wall national emergency a 'political stunt,' Gore launches into evidence that migrant caravans heading to the U.S. are climate related. 


He pointed to a region of Central America known as 'The Dry Corridor' spanning an area that covers parts of Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua as an origin point for the migration crisis.

The Dry Corridor nations are the origin point for many of the migrants that have formed caravans in their journey north to the U.S. border. This caravan was seen on November 8, 2018, traveling through Mexico City

In before-and-after photos of Jiquilisco, El Salvador, between June and August of 2018, he shows a region of rivers run completely dry, claiming there has not been a harvest in the area for a full year.


'The drought becomes unbearable, so they pick up stakes and they say, "We can't live here,"' Gore said to McKinnon.

'First of all, they leave their farms and go to these cities, and they run into these criminal gangs, and they say, 'We can't handle this,'' he continues. 'And they head on north.'


While pushback on the science of climate change has mainly come from Trump and the Republican party, according to Yahoo News, Gore also says there are those in the GOP who would publicly agree were it not for the political price they might pay.

'There are a lot of Republicans who I know who understand the climate crisis,' Gore explains. 'But if they say they’re on my side of this, then they get a primary opponent, and so they keep quiet about it.'


Meanwhile, Trump went back to calling Central American migrants attempting to cross into the U.S. illegally 'rough hombres' on Monday morning speaking to a bipartisan group of state governors. 


Trump singled out three of The Dry Corridor nations, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, for 'not sending us their finest' and encouraging 'rough hombres' to join caravans north.


As extreme weather conditions brought on by climate change intensifies, Gore makes the case that the migration of human beings will be  a global catastrophe.

'The estimates are that in this century there could be as many as one billion climate refugees migrating across borders to other countries,' said Gore. 'That's a threat to political stability and peace.' 


'How urgent is this?' McKinnon quietly asked the former vice president.


'There's nothing more urgent,' Gore replies. 'With the sole exception of the risk of an all out nuclear war, the climate crisis is the only one that can literally destroy human civilization.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
