Aussie moonbat: global “warming” curbs circumcisions

Whenever I ask if there’s anything global “warming” can’t be linked to, it’s generally rhetorical.  Well, enter Australian genocidal environut Tim Flannery (from Moonbattery):

Is there no end to the baleful consequences of the imaginary climate change crisis? It even prevents young Africans from getting circumcised, according to mammologist, paleontologist, and Kool-Aid–guzzling global warming hysteric Tim Flannery, who rants in his new book An Explorer’s Notebook:

The Samburu circumcise their youths in grand ceremonies, which are held every seven years or so, when enough cattle and other foods have accumulated to support such celebrations. Circumcision represents a transition to manhood, and until a youth has passed it he can’t marry. But it’s been 14 years since a circumcision ceremony has been held here. There are now 40,000 uncircumcised young men, some in their late 20s, waiting their turn. All of the eligible young women, tired of waiting, have married older men (multiple wives are allowed), so there are no wives for the new initiates.

I could never have imagined that climate change would have such an effect on an entire society.

We have to take Flannery’s word for it that the absence of rain in the African desert is due to nature having recently noticed all the carbon we’ve been emitting. 

This is the same dude who thinks that Mother Gaia would be well served if 1/3 of humanity were exterminated.  Oddly enough, he doesn’t exactly practice what he preaches by starting with himself.  Go figure.
