Mongolia in the grip of one of its most extreme winters on record
Watchers News ^ | 01/22/2021 | Julie Celestial

Mongolia is in the grip of one of its most extreme winters on record, according to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), with temperatures forecast to plunge to -50 °C (-58 °F). The severe cold has killed more than 500 camels in the central region, threatening livestock and leaving many herder families vulnerable.

The extreme weather, called dzud, threatens the livelihoods and health of thousands of Mongolian herders residing in the country's remote provinces.

As a pre-emptive action, the Mongolian Red Cross Society (MRCS) has sent financial assistance and livestock nutrition kits in target areas to help them in meeting their needs, as well as to save their livestock-- the main source of livelihoods for Mongolians.

On January 12, 2021, local media reported that the frigid temperatures killed more than 500 Bactrian camels in the central province of Uvurkhangai.

Just wait until Bill Gates has sprinkled his sunlight-blocking "fairy dust" in the upper Stratosphere! Then it's going to get really cold!

It’s “climate change “.
The left learned that lesson, it covers any abnormal weather event .
And you comrade American ,are responsible for it by driving your SUV.

You don’t care about these poor people do you?
That’s why we need to enact “climate justice” programs.

I knew this would happen when we advanced from CO2 being at the very safe 0.0400% to our current dangerous 0.0417%

I think the “news” was that animals were dying, and that they blamed this severe cold on global warming.
