Popular Post snoop1130 Posted May 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 26, 2020 Several countries seek ban on wildlife markets By The Nation Several countries have pointed out that wildlife wet markets are the cause of the Covid-19 outbreak, especially pointing the finger at one in the Chinese city of Wuhan which sold dogs, foxes, rats, squirrels, wolf cubs and salamanders among other animals. The Australian government on its part has urged G20 member countries to take action against these markets, calling them a biosecurity and human health risk. Meanwhile, the World Economic Forum is seeking international measures to control wildlife trading as it says the Covid-19 pandemic would cause damages worth US$1 trillion (Bt31.92 trillion) to the global economy, with vulnerable communities being hit the hardest.

from the home of CC Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 and China will listen lol.. Who will enforce it PETA? And countries will start a trade war in the middle of a depression? I agree this practice should end but China has to come to that conclusion themselves otherwise folks will be pi**** in the wind. BTW, these markets exist in many countries.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark131v Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 It has cost China a lot of money and face that alone might convince the CCP to do something about it I reckon they will do it quietly in their own time, they have shown many times that they can be absolutely ruthless when they need to be so public opinion of the serfs doesn't really matter. Well here's hoping.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post fruitman Posted May 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 26, 2020 The chinese also eat living mouse or other animals...the vietnamese like to eat snakes while still moving or drink their blood....and so on....it's time the asians stop these filthy habets. And the Thai should organise any market better, it's always a filthy mess all over thailand....dogs/cats <deleted>ting everywhere, blood dripping of tables and splashing around...far too busy, electric cables laying in puddles.... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well here's hoping.... One thing true is The CCP pulled 800 million people out of poverty. There wet markets WILL be bulldozed and the will have to buy Chicken, Pork and Fish from plastic packs from air conditioned markets like any other country, in there own time and not like it is enforced by foreigners. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently AU pushed for enquiry into origins of covid. Within new days huge tarrif was placed on Au barley exports along with ban on beef due to labeling issue. All rubbish. Watch this crazy bully going forward. Hoping world can give them wake up call. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blumpie Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 It's not just Asian countries that do it. People eat bats for dinner because they have nothing else all over the world. And not just bats, whatever they can get their hands on. At least we're going in the right direction. It's moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is not much meat on a bat and they are expensive to source. If they are to consume meat better it is from agriculture and factory farms like any other country. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However they get to eat whatever they are eating, the result is the same. Buy it, hunt it? Why do I care? And let me completely assure you this happens in the middle east, other parts of Asia, Central Asia. I've seen it with my own two eyes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took my Thai partner to a park and when a pidgin landed she tried to grab it for a snack. You kidding. Wuhan has population 10mill+. Which other city that size can buy a live monkey or whatever. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holy cow cm Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 How about we ban all of these level 4 warfare labs.. Make only virus protection a thing of all the countries combined at designated labs with all countries involved. Not each individual country under disguise. China needs to be taught a huge lesson and fall to the sewer. I hate China! period! It ain't the wet markets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nobodysfriend Posted May 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) This Corona Virus originated from Nature , not a lab . ( There is sufficient prove for this , just google ...) I see it as a warning from a living planet to it's dominant but destructive species . If this warning will be ignored , ( of course it will ...) , there will be other more dangerous viruses to emerge and do their job .... Their job is to eliminate the threat to a ( former ) balanced biosphere , that mankind represents . To avoid this , we , ( as a species ) , have to stop polluting the air , the water , the earth , NOW . Will mankind be able and willing to do this ? The answer is : NO . So , we will have to live with the consequences ... People will go back to work , so will the Virus . Who will win in the end ? I mean if the dominant species fights and destroys it's own planet's ecosystems , there will be no winners at all . But with a lot of time , the planet will re-balance itself , while mankind just disappears ... Everything is connected , every action provokes a reaction . Still a chance left to act and change now , if we go on like this , it will be too late for us , we will follow the path of the dinosaurs . The Virus showed to us very clearly how to reduce pollution and how fast the air quality becomes better . If plastic production is reduced and no more toxic pesticides used in the food chain , if the rivers are not polluted anymore , if nature and it's ecosystems are treated with respect , there is still a chance for a future worth living it . So , after all , the virus may be a good thing ? A lot will die , but if the survivors may be able to make it better in the future ...? Time will tell ...

garzhe Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Its been known for years the health risks from these live animal markets which are all over Asia mainly supplying China. Thailand closed the live animal market in Chatuchuk Bangkok some weeks ago after an under cover report by 60 minutes Australia. No doubt its moved somewhere else by now. WHO has done nothing to shut these markets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to tv about a week ago, 350,000,000 have lost their jobs due to this Chinese virus - that means an opportunity for a new 350 million Chinese exports worth of jobs ! A small hit to their economy now, will be replaced by a bigger boom later - assuming the world does not wake up and make stuff in their own country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China needs to be taught a huge lesson and fall to the sewer. I hate China! period! It ain't the wet markets. In principle banning such labs is a great idea. The problem would be secret labs. Now that China was given the lab technology by the US (!), it can reverse engineer and evade any prohibition. We really need internationally-staffed sentinel outposts all over China and the Third World, not just the West, so that we can detect outbreaks early and evade the Chinese Communist propaganda dept in particular.
