Brazil's Attorney General Urges Investigation of Environmental Progress Founder Michael @shellenberger STATEMENT BY @shellenberger environmentalprogress.org/big-news/2024/…

For decades, advocates of gender-affirming care said it was based on science. It wasn't. And now we have the newly leaked internal files of the main transgender medicine to prove it. Excellent @RichMcHugh @NewsNation

🚨🚨 The WPATH Files have just been released. 🚨🚨 "The WPATH Files prove that gender medicine is comprised of unregulated and pseudoscientific experiments on children, adolescents, and vulnerable adults. It will go down as one of the worst medical scandals in history."

⚧️The WPATH Files⚧️ A damning new report from Environmental Progress, based on leaked internal documents from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, asserts: WPATH is “neither scientific nor advocating for ethical medical care.” For the details see the 🧵⬇️

This is huge. The WPATH files prove what we already know: the practice of transgender medicine is neither scientific nor medical. "Gender affirming care" will be seen as one of the most profitable yet destructive social experiments in history. Excellent work @shellenberger

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Leaked files from @WPATH reveal widespread medical malpractice on children and vulnerable adults at global transgender healthcare authority. @shellenberger @envprogress @_CryMiaRiver @FAIRinMedicine @genspect @stellaomalley3 #WPATHfiles environmentalprogress.org/big-news/wpath…

'Despite decades of surgeries and drugs, there is nothing scientific at all about so-called gender medicine.' @shellenberger on the newly released WPATH files 👇 unherd.com/newsroom/leake…

BREAKING My latest OpEd just went live in @nypost. It is about explosive leaked files from inside @wpath, the organization whose guidelines are the defacto standard of care for transgender healthcare. The jaw-dropping files “reveal it is pushing hormonal and surgical transitions for minors, including stomach-wrenching experimental procedures designed to create sexless bodies that resemble department-store mannequins.” Many thanks to @shellenberger, to whom these documents were leaked last year. He was generous enough to share them with me under the condition I not write about them until tonight. All the leaked files, and a remarkable summary report written by @_CryMiaRiver, are available at environmentalprogress.org From my NY Post piece: “The World Professional Association for Transgender Health documents demonstrate it’s controlled by gender ideologues who push aside concerns about whether children and adolescents can consent to medical treatments that WPATH members privately acknowledge often have devasting and permanent side effects.” Be forewarned, this story is graphic and at times very disturbing. As I write in the Post, these disclosures “might even prompt investigations into how those with distorted personal agendas seized control of the organization at the expense of science and patients.” It is about time. Read the full OpEd here: nypost.com/2024/03/04/opi…

Michael Shellenberger has broken many stories, including the Twitter Files. Today he's breaking the WPATH Files. What you need to know: WPATH = World Professional Association for Transgender Health It's an interdisciplinary medical association devoted to transgender health and gender medicine, which major American / British professional medical associations and hospital networks consider the AUTHORITATIVE BODY on the standards for the provision of gender-affirming health care. In these leaked files, WPATH's gender activists are seen pushing hormonal and surgical transitions for children (pre-pubescent), including stomach-wrenching experimental procedures designed to create sexless bodies that resemble department-store mannequins. They do this with the imprimatur of trusted professionalism and epistemic authority. These are the people providing guidelines for MEDICAL advice on treating children and youth. People need to be out on the streets protesting. Will @CNN or the @nytimes or @BBCNews cover this? I won't hold my breath.

THE WPATH FILES Advocates of gender-affirming care say it’s evidence-based. But now, newly released internal files from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) prove that the practice of transgender medicine is neither scientific nor medical. American Medical Association, The Endocrine Society, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and thousands of doctors worldwide rely on WPATH. It is considered the leading global authority on gender medicine. And yet WPATH’s internal files, which include written discussions and a video, reveal that its members know they are creating victims and not getting “informed consent.” Victims include a 10-year-old girl, a 13-year-old developmentally delayed adolescent, and individuals suffering from schizophrenia and other serious mental illnesses. The injuries described in the WPATH Files include sterilization, loss of sexual function, liver tumors, and death. WPATH members indicate repeatedly that they know that many children and their parents don’t understand the effects that puberty blockers, hormones, and surgeries will have on their bodies. And yet, they continue to perform and advocate for gender medicine. The WPATH Files prove that gender medicine is comprised of unregulated and pseudoscientific experiments on children, adolescents, and vulnerable adults. It will go down as one of the worst medical scandals in history. environmentalprogress.org/big-news/wpath…

People say that wind energy is good for the environment, but a new study finds that East Coast offshore wind industry activity since 2015 strongly correlates with whale deaths. Wind Industry Activity Strongly Correlated With Whale Deaths, New Study Finds “An Investigation of Large Whale Mortality and Offshore Wind Development Activity in the U.S. Since 2015.” by Lisa Linowes @LinowesLisa and Eric Turner Since 2016, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has declared three Unusual Mortality Events (UME) involving large whale species in the Atlantic Ocean. These are specifically the Atlantic humpback whale UME in 2017, the North Atlantic right whale (NARW) UME in 2017, and the Atlantic minke whale UME in 2018. The UMEs for the humpback and minke whales include deaths in 2016 and 2017, respectively. The beginning of these declarations coincides with increased offshore wind (OSW) vessel activity in waters where whale deaths were observed. Prior to the closing months of 2015, no notable OSW survey, construction, or maintenance vessel traffic existed in the Atlantic Ocean.1 Commencing with the preparation and construction of five wind turbines off the southeast coast of Block Island, significant and frequently intense OSW vessel traffic has been observed. This report documents geographic and volume-based evidence of marine mammal deaths that correlate directly to OSW vessel activity from 2016 forward. Using maps of whale deaths and OSW vessel tracks, the authors endeavor to graphically display an increase in mortality against OSW vessel activity. FINDINGS This study identified a direct correlation between increased OSW vessel activity and whale mortality. Key findings of the study include: a) A connection between OSW vessel activity within ocean areas and whale deaths has been an ongoing concern in the United States since the 5-turbine Block Island wind facility was under construction in 2016. OSW developers employ high-resolution geophysical (HRG) equipment that uses sonar to map the seabed in the lease areas. Sound from sonar surveys and wind turbine pile driving is recognized as harmful to marine mammals. b) Research and press accounts from the United Kingdom and Europe dating back more than a decade suggest whales and other marine mammals experienced displacement and mortality events in the North Sea related to offshore wind development. Scientific evidence detailing the impacts of OSW on marine life continues to be limited. Where studies have been performed, it is not clear the outcomes can be applied to environmental conditions of the coasts of the United States. Testimonies from the United Kingdom show that resolving the climate crisis has been the priority for the government over concerns related to wildlife and environmental impacts. c) Ocean vessel tracks in the Atlantic prior to 2016 show that very little marine traffic beyond fishing and pleasure boats occurred within the wind lease areas. Annual aggregate vessel tracks within established shipping lanes and in areas close to shore appear relatively constant over the period from 2015 to 2023 with nominal changes year-over-year. The change in vessel activity after 2015 coincided with the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) finalizing lease agreements with OSW developers. Traffic within the lease areas materially increased. d) In the period from 2007 to 2023, 60% of total whale mortality along the east coast from Maine to North Carolina occurred after 2015 (n=470 of 788 whales). This represents a 48% increase in whale deaths overall. In several states where OSW activity was significant, the percent increase in mortality was well over 60% (Tables 2 and 3). The increase in whale deaths and NOAA’s declarations of unusual mortality events correlate directly with the increase in OSW activities within federally leased areas. e) Vessel track data show whale deaths occurring within the same timeframe as the OSW sonar surveys and in proximity to the sonar activity. As the amount of OSW activity increased within an area, so did whale deaths. Shortly after pile driving to install wind turbines was initiated in late spring 2023 for the Vineyard Wind 1 and South Fork Wind facilities, additional whale deaths were observed in southern New England. f) Using commercially and publicly available tools and data, this investigation found a positive relationship between OSW vessel activity and whale mortality. Additional in-depth investigations are necessary to determine if there is a causal connection between OSW activity and the increase in whale mortality. saverightwhales.org/media/wind-ind…

The United Nations Development Program @UNDP sounds like it would be pro-human development, but it’s not. It opposes modern energy and farming by poor nations. It is run by Malthusian ideologues and @wef puppets. After I exposed them, they blocked me.
