" Climate change is affecting the reindeer population on Russia's border with Norway."
Must be read :
" Climate change is affecting the reindeer population on Norway's border with Russia " as the article points , what a miracle , Norway and not Russia as the " bad guy" !
Paul Goble is silent !...
The fact is that Sami's were treated as nigg[censored]or yi[censored ] by the " native Norwegians " and their graves unearthed for " scientifical studies " .
The article of course speaks of global warming but it should had speak also of the effect of NATO drills in the region .
