Harm reduction sounds like someone is trying to help someone or remove a problem. It is not that but a way to characterize aiding drug addicts in receiving clean needles. It has also, blossomed into giving free spaces to shoot up and even in some cities give out free drugs. I became aware of the practice when I was a board member of our local Health Right. This organization offered free health care to those without insurance and were at or near the poverty level. Some of our clients were addicts and homeless but most were people working at fast food shops and the like making minimum wage and could not afford health insurance. Obama care made many of them eligible for Medicaid and removed them from our rolls. As our homeless population grew so did the number of addicts and alcoholics. Many of the addicts did not seek care or want to be noticed so we had very little contact with them unless they became very sick.
I have written a few times on the climate change and global warming issue with a negative approach because I do not believe that mankind has the power to change the earth's weather. I am not very popular with many of those that have made climate change their religion and will not discuss any of the scientific principles involved including thermodynamics and the capturing of the temperature of the earth. A few years ago I reported that NOAA had extrapolated the sea buoy temperature reading up about 1.5 degrees C because they believed that the evaporation of sea water was cooling the testing equipment. The average earth temperature climbed 1.5 degrees that year. To measure the change in temperature they did not have to change the readings but just look at the delta or change in the reported temperatures. Any change would have been logged as the temperatures increasing or decreasing. This change in the way the readings were interpreted happened after fifteen years with no significant change in the earth's average temperature. As a result we have been constantoy told that the earth is warming and that will cause terrible damage to our environment. The old "global warming" was changed to "climate change" because there was no global warming until the change in the sea buoy readings.
