The Climate Change Hoax – The world is going on a massive diet – like it or not
BY SIMONE J. SMITH
Once again, I am here to report on some news that I really do not want to, but it is our duty to let our community know exactly what is going on around the world, and how it is going to drastically affect us.
It’s becoming increasingly clear that severe food shortages are coming and appear to be inevitable, more or less worldwide, all due to the most recent Climate Change propaganda that is being pushed by governments across the globe. That’s why now is a crucial time to learn new methods of self-sufficiency and resiliency, and I will go over a few methods at the end of the article. I also encourage those who are proficient at growing food, and storing food to send in suggestions to us at info@carib101.com, or directly to me at simone@carib101.com. When you complete this article, you will see why doing so is of extreme importance.
I am going to present information that is coming out from parts of the world that may not necessarily make it to us through mainstream media. There is a lot to take in here, so I am going to do my best not to overwhelm, but I will say this, the world is going on a massive diet, whether we like it or not!
Our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is seeking a 30% reduction in nitrogen pollution by 2030. He says that he is not mandating fertilizer use reductions, only pollution reductions, and his experts agree that such a radical pollution decline in such a short period will only be possible through reducing fertilizer use, and thus food production.
What will this mean? The cost to farmers would be between $10 billion and $48 billion.
Where the proposed Dutch restrictions are driven by land and air pollution concerns, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s restrictions are driven by the desire for strong action on climate change.
“If you push farmers against the wall with no wiggle room, I don’t know where this will end up. Just look at what’s happening in Europe, in the Netherlands. They’ve had enough of it.” Gunter Jochum (President of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers Association)
Most recently, two fertilizer producers in Europe have shut down and this is due to record prices for natural gas.
“Although there are no problems with the availability of gas, the current situation on the gas market, which determines the profitability of production activity, is exceptional and completely beyond the company’s control.” Grupa Azoty, the European Union’s second-largest fertilizer producer
Fertilizer is the main raw material for Grupa Azoty SA’s production. The company decided on August 22nd, 2022, to temporarily shut down its nitrogen fertilizer, caprolactam, and polyamide 6 production plants from August 23rd, 2022. This shutdown will limit the amount of fertilizer available for the next sowing season. Coupled with drought conditions afflicting the current harvest system, this is really bad news for the global food supply.
Grupa Azoty says it will continue to monitor the price level of all raw materials and goods needed to make fertilizer production profitable once again before deciding to reopen the plant. Reports have come in that the company did not, however, give any indication as to when it expects to resume operations.
Another Polish fertilizer producer, ANWIL, announced on the same day that it, too, would no longer be producing fertilizer due to skyrocketing energy costs.
“Due to an unprecedented and record-breaking increase in natural gas prices in Europe, ANWIL has decided to temporarily suspend the production of nitrogenous fertilizers. The company is constantly monitoring the situation on the commodity market. As soon as macroeconomic conditions on the gas market stabilize, production will resume,” ANWIL announced on its website on August 23rd.
Why are they doing this? Well, the government wants to force agriculture to halve its nitrogen emissions by 2030. Farmers in the Netherlands had tried to work with the government by reducing nitrogen pollution by nearly 70% through a voluntary system, but the government said that was not enough. The government continues to claim that nature would improve immediately if some critical value is not exceeded.
There has been pushbacks against this, and for good reason. “There is no scientific evidence for that,” emphasized Agraction leader Bart Kemp in the studio of broadcaster Ongehoord Nederland.
The efforts by the government have sparked a fierce backlash among Dutch farmers, who argue that the government seems more interested in reducing animal agriculture than in finding solutions that protect the food supply and their livelihoods.
“Why would you buy out farmers or reduce livestock when you have the possibility to invest in innovation? That’s what I think is so crazy. We can produce food in a much more efficient and cleaner way if we do that. And it’s much cheaper also then by buying out farmers.” Caroline van der Plas (The Founder and Sole Member of Parliament for the Farmer-Citizen Movement party)
The question here is, how does this affect us here in the western world? The Netherlands is the largest exporter of meat in Europe and the second largest exporter of food overall by economic value in the world, after the United States. This is a remarkable feat for a nation half the size of Indiana. Farm exports have been reported to generate nearly $100 billion a year in revenue. Experts attribute the nation’s success to its farmers’ embrace of technological innovation.
A country that has disappeared from the headlines of world politics is Sri Lanka, and there is a good reason for that. Until recently, reports of civil war-like unrest and an energy emergency have been circulating, and gasoline and electricity were being rationed.
In July, after months of unrest, Sri Lanka’s President Gotabaya Rajapaksa left the country, abandoning his country to an economic crisis and food shortages. In 2019, he had been going around and praising his government for fighting artificial fertilizer. Sri Lanka wanted to convert its agriculture completely to organic farming and for this reason had banned the import of conventional fertilizer and fuel.
The fatal result: in just one year, Sri Lanka went from being a rice exporter to an importer. This government organized organic experiment plunged half a million people into poverty and sent prices skyrocketing by well over 50%.
On the topic of importing and exporting, delivery delays are becoming a financial burden to many shippers. Time is money, and a vessel or container at rest takes both out of the supply chain. Global shippers are now preparing for volatility in the coming quarters. A new report shows that with disruptions and uncertainty sweeping across every facet of the worldwide supply chain, the vast majority of companies are in panic mode, and executives expect current conditions to continue or even worsen by the end of the year.
A recent study by QIMA, a global quality control, and compliance service provider, uncovered that U.S. companies are experiencing a broad array of issues, and of course, these problems are not only causing shortages, but are raising the price of food. Food inflation is set to hit between 15 and 20% this year. When supply chains get choked up like that and farmers can’t make ends meet, food becomes expensive, fast. An example is this summer, Kraft Heinz announced plans to hike prices by as much as 30%, and other companies are expected to follow the same move while U.S.
Community, I am sharing this information with you so that you are not shocked by the coming wave of price increases. The current outlook is extremely gloomy, and industry giants are telling us to brace for some serious shockwaves as peak-shipping season begins for volatile supply chains. Global systems of food and energy production are being increasingly targeted and dismantled. There are theorists out there who claim that this is all part of The Great Reset, a decades-old plan from the World Economic Forum (WEF) to seize control of wealth and resources.
So what can we do? START TO GROW YOUR OWN FOOD!
This is something we encourage virtually everyone to take part in. Even if you have limited space, it’s possible to grow quite a bit of food to feed yourself and your family. I recently read about one food that requires very minimal space, yet packs a powerful nutritional punch. I am talking about sprouts.
Sprouts and microgreens offer unique benefits due to the fact that they’re in their initial and early phase of growth. During this time, the plants contain more concentrated amounts of nutrients, making them nutrient-dense than their full-grown vegetable counterparts, providing higher amounts of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and health-promoting phytochemicals.
This means that you need to eat far less, in terms of amount, compared to a mature plant. Another benefit is that sprouts can also contain up to 100 times more enzymes than their full-grown counterparts, which allows your body to extract higher levels of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients from other foods, and help protect against chemical carcinogens.
If grown correctly, in about a week, you can have fresh, nutritious food. During times of food crisis, this makes sprouts an ideal food source. Their short growth cycle allows them to be harvested daily as needed.
We also suggest visiting your local food bank and stocking up on canned foods and dried goods. Canned foods and dry staples such as rice and beans can also stay viable long past their expiration date under the right conditions. Other good options include: canned salmon, canned cod livers, sardines in water (avoid ones preserved in vegetable oil), nuts, powdered milk and whey and other nutritional powders you can mix with water.
Do not ignore this warning; it is time that we do something, and we are going to have to work together to do it.

Have you ever forgotten someone’s name, or where you left your phone and thought, “Why can’t I remember anything?” Forgetting might feel frustrating, but it turns out that forgetting things can actually be good for you. Experts believe forgetting might be an important part of human survival and could even have benefits.
You probably think that remembering everything would be better, right? If you remembered every tiny detail, like what you had for breakfast three weeks ago, or the colour of every car you saw today, you would be overwhelmed. Our brains are constantly receiving information, and if we didn’t forget some of it, we wouldn’t be able to focus on what really matters at that time.
Forgetting helps you clear out information you don’t need, and it helps your brain remember the most useful memories. Think about how hard it would be to focus on important things if your mind was filled with random thoughts. Forgetting helps you stay focused and keeps your mind from getting lost.
So, why would evolution make us forget things? Early humans had to deal with dangerous environments that changed quickly. They needed to remember things that helped them survive, like where to find food, or how to avoid predators. They didn’t need to remember every small detail, like what happened last week. Forgetting information, they didn’t need allowed them to make quick decisions based on what was most important at that moment in time.
For example, if you remember a recent storm, you might make sure to stay inside or find shelter. If you remembered every storm you’d ever seen, it would be harder to make decisions about the present. Forgetting irrelevant details helps you stay on your feet and helps you react faster to new situations. This ability to forget likely helped early humans survive and make better decisions in their everyday lives.
Next time you forget something, don’t be too hard on yourself! Forgetting is a natural part of how our brains work and can actually help you stay focused on the important things. It might seem annoying at times, but it’s helping you make better decisions. Forgetting isn’t just something to be annoyed about, it’s a smart way to survive in a world that’s always changing!

Blink equity dives deep into the gap between people of colour and decision-making roles in Canadian law firms
BY ADRIAN REECE
Representation in the workforce has been a topic of conversation for years, particularly in positions of influence, where people can shift laws and create fair policies for all races. Representation in the legal system is an even more talked about subject, with many Black men being subjected to racism in courts and not being given fair sentencing by judges.
The fear of Black men entering the system is something that plagues mothers and fathers as they watch their children grow up.
Blink Equity, a company led by Pako Tshiamala, has created an audit called the Blink Score. This audit targets law firms and seeks to identify specific practices reflecting racial diversity among them in Toronto. A score is given based on a few key performance indicators. These KPIs include hiring practices, retention of diverse talent, and racial representation at every level.
The Blink Score project aims to analyze law firms in Ontario with more than 50 lawyers. The Blink Score is a measurement tool that holds law firms accountable for their representation. Firms will be ranked, and the information will be made public for anyone to access.
This process is ambitious and seeks to give Canadian citizens a glimpse into how many people are represented across the legal field. While more and more people have access to higher education, there is still a gap between obtaining that higher education and working in a setting where change can be made. The corporate world, at its highest points, is almost always one race across the board, and very rarely do people of colour get into their ranks. They are made out to be an example of how anyone from a particular race can achieve success. However, this is the exception, not the rule. Nepotism plays a role in societal success; connections are a factor, and loyalty to race, even if people are acquainted.
People of colour comprise 16% of the total lawyers across the province. Positions at all levels range from 6% to 27%. These numbers display the racial disparity among law practitioners in positions of influence. Becoming a lawyer is undoubtedly a huge accomplishment. Still, when entering the workforce with other seasoned professionals, your academic accolades become second to your professional achievements and your position in the company.
What do these rankings ultimately mean? A potential for DEI-inclusive practices, perhaps? That isn’t something that someone would want in this kind of profession. This kind of audit also opens law firms up to intense criticism from people who put merit above all other aspects of professional advancement. On the other hand, there is a potential for firms to receive clientele based on their blink score, with higher ones having the chance to bring in more race-based clients who can help that law firm grow.
It is only the beginning, and changes will undoubtedly be made in the legal field as Blink Equity continues to dive deep into the gap between people of colour and decision-making roles in these law firms. This audit has the power to shift the power scale, and place people of colour in higher positions. There are hierarchies in any profession, and while every Lawyer is qualified to do what they are trained to do, it is no shock that some are considerably better than others at their jobs. The ones who know how to use this audit to their advantage will rise above the others and create a representative image for themselves among their population.

We are living in a world where promises of health and safety came packaged in a tiny vial, one injection was promoted by powerful governments, supported by respected institutions, and championed by legacy media worldwide. Sadly, beneath the surface, a darker truth emerged.
Reports from around the globe began to tell a different story—one that was not covered in the news cycles or press conferences. Families torn apart by unexpected losses, communities impacted in ways that few could have foreseen, and millions questioning what they had been told to believe.
Those who dared to question were silenced or dismissed (the Toronto Caribbean Newspaper being one of those sources). “Trust the science,” we were told. “It’s for the greater good.” As time went on, the truth became impossible to ignore.
Now, I bring more news to light—information that demands your attention and scrutiny. The time to passively listen has passed; this is the moment to understand what’s really at stake.
I reviewed an interview with Naomi Wolf, journalist and CEO of Daily Clout, which detailed the serious vaccine-related injuries that Pfizer and the FDA knew of by early 2021, but tried to hide from the public. I was introduced to “The Pfizer Papers: Pfizer’s Crimes Against Humanity.” What I learned is that Pfizer knew about the inadequacies of its COVID-19 vaccine trials and the vaccine’s many serious adverse effects, and so did the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA promoted the vaccines anyway — and later tried to hide the data from the public.
To produce “The Pfizer Papers,” Naomi, and Daily Clout Chief Operations Officer Amy Kelly convened thousands of volunteer scientists and doctors to analyze Pfizer data and supplementary data from other public reporting systems to capture the full scope of the vaccines’ effects. They obtained the data from the Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency, a group of more than 30 medical professionals and scientists who sued the FDA in 2021 and forced the agency to release the data, after the FDA refused to comply with a Freedom of Information Act request.
It was then that the federal court ordered the agency to release 450,000 internal documents pertaining to the licensing of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. The data release was significantly and the documents so highly technical and scientific that according to Naomi, “No journalist could have the bandwidth to go through them all.”
The “Pfizer Papers” analysts found over 42,000 case reports detailing 158,893 adverse events reported to Pfizer in the first three months The centerpiece of “The Pfizer Papers” is the effect that the vaccine had on human reproduction. The papers reveal that Pfizer knew early on that the shots were causing menstrual issues. The company reported to the FDA that 72% of the recorded adverse events were in women. Of those, about 16% involved reproductive disorders and functions. In the clinical trials, thousands of women experienced: daily bleeding, hemorrhaging, and passing of tissue, and many other women reported that their menstrual cycle stopped completely.
Pfizer was aware that lipid nanoparticles from the shots accumulated in the ovaries and crossed the placental barrier, compromising the placenta and keeping nutrients from the baby in utero. According to the data, babies had to be delivered early, and women were hemorrhaging in childbirth.
Let us take us to another part of the world, where research has been done on other pharmaceutical companies. A group of Argentine scientists identified 55 chemical elements — not listed on package inserts — in the: Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca, CanSino, Sinopharm and Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccines (according to a study published last week in the International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research).
The samples also contained 11 of the 15 rare earth elements (they are heavier, silvery metals often used in manufacturing). These chemical elements, which include lanthanum, cerium and gadolinium, are lesser known to the general public than heavy metals, but have been shown to be highly toxic. By the end of 2023, global researchers had identified 24 undeclared chemical elements in the COVID-19 vaccine formulas.
Vaccines often include excipients — additives used as preservatives, adjuvants, stabilizers, or for other purposes. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), substances used in the manufacture of a vaccine, but not listed in the contents of the final product should be listed somewhere in the package insert. Why is this important? Well, researchers argue it is because excipients can include allergens and other “hidden dangers” for vaccine recipients.
In one lot of the AstraZeneca vaccine, researchers identified 15 chemical elements, of which 14 were undeclared. In the other lot, they detected 21 elements of which 20 were undeclared. In the CanSino vial, they identified 22 elements, of which 20 were undeclared.
The three Pfizer vials contained 19, 16 and 21-23 undeclared elements respectively. The Moderna vials contained 21 and between 16-29 undeclared elements. The Sinopharm vials contained between 17-23 undeclared elements and the Sputnik V contained between 19-25 undetected elements.
“All of the heavy metals detected are linked to toxic effects on human health,” the researchers wrote. Although the metals occurred in different frequencies, many were present across multiple samples.
I am not going to go any further with this; I think you get the picture. We have been sold wolf cookies, very dangerous ones. These pharmaceutical companies must be held accountable. I am proud of anyone who has gone after them for retribution, and have received it. Regardless, in many ways, there is no repayment for a healthy life.
