It’s time for regenerative farming at scale. It can be done and IT IS being done by plenty of great farmers, using animals and plants together. Rotational grazing, rotational crop farming, composting, etc. It heals the soil, improves the output, controls pests, reduces need for chemical medication in animals and chemicals on crops. For those who say it can’t be done at scale, ask the farmers doing it now. They know how!
It's the depopulation agenda in full swing. The vaccine poison is still working its way through the system but needs a bit of help with wars and famine. We have to stick to the script.
The Iran war is the only thing holding back rapid data center expansion. It’s buying time for legislators & the public to find some kind of balance.
The reality is we do have too many stupid people who don’t even take care of themselves. So when people become smarter & make some effort to improve, they’ll stop trying to kill us.
Agreed. I live in what is largely a retirement community and I’m astounded at how much money and water (and probably fertilizer) is being spent on nice looking lawns — but very few people have kitchen gardens! I bet next year will be a different situation!
“Corn to ethanol” nonsense needs to end right now. That’ll give us some breathing room. Beyond that, ditto everything Linda said. Livestock on pasture is the way, not livestock crammed into CAFOs fed GMO corn and soy that was grown with mined or synthetic fertilizer and copious quantities of poisons. The farmers who listened to Joel Salatin are about to do very, very well.
Big meat producing animals like cows love clover, which is a legume which nitrogenates the soil. The cows don’t kill it either when they eat it, it will grow back quick. The flowers support pollinators of all kinds, which farmers also need badly. There are so many ways, but it will take time to restore a lot of the already ruined soil from heavy fertilizing. I have been planting clover in my yard each year to slowly eliminate the grass, along with wild flowers. But I hate manicurered lawns.
There are SO MANY things that can make ethanol, a lot of them not edible by humans. Just because whiskey makers use corn, ethanol could be made from left over restaurant food from fast food dumpsters. Scraps from food manufacturers, sawgrass, and on and on, anything with starch or sugar. Why do they insist on using corn only to make it?
Sad, especially for poorer folks in terms of access to nutrition, but for everyone from the farmer to the banker who must refuse to make the next seasonal loan and too often has to foreclose on their customer. Regenerative farmering is the better course, for sure. Let’s hope this stimulates the transition. Meanwhile, enjoy Italy and family travels, while keeping the focus in your posts on what’s happening and the ramifications.
Now add the weather… May 24th and it’s still rainy and 50 degrees. There is no sun. There is no heat. It’s gearing up to be the shortest growing season on record for Ontario, Canada. And if this continues into June, I will be convinced it’s weather modification by design . Just another vector to make sure we starve.
I’m sorry. I’m planning on planting a second crop of pinto and kidney beans in late June/early July after I harvest the crop I planted March 30. They will be ready for harvest around late June. I will have growing temps well into October, no frost until Nov. I’m in N. E. Texas, zone 8b. And they are all organic.
I think it all is in Texas now. But we always had long growing seasons, but last winter we were in the 80s a good part of Feb. Then had a couple of freezes in mid March. No there s no global warming anymore than there has been since the earth got an atmosphere. The climate is always changing, it’s a natural thing, and if somehow man IS responsible for it, well man is a natural inhabitant of this planet, so if something man does causes the climate to change, it is still natural. But I think we place too much importance on mans actions affecting the climate out of vanity more than anything else, and as a means to exert more control over populations.
I don't know if all this talk about El Niño this year is just hype or not—but if it is, it only makes things worse. The droughts that are now being predicted don't make the overall situation any better.
And then there are the reports about Lake Mead... It's a disastrous combination.
Personally, being a prepper, I got enough food stashed away for me and my dog for a couple of years, as long as I can get clean enough water to run through my RO filter and boil, and still have electricity for the filter machine. But freeze dried stuff with little meat in it gets old and the canned meat runs out. But even now I can’t, or won’t, afford hamburger meat anymore at $8 a pound. With no rent or mortgage, no car payments and no debt living on SSID and disabled, my main expense is food. I don’t work or drive much so gas prices don’t hurt me directly, but its going to hurt us all soon. As long as I don’t have to dip into savings to eat. I don’t want to have to sell any metal to buy food. I am an organic gardener, and grow all kinds of fruits and vegetables without using any fertilizers, except grass clippings, leaves, any type of dead vegetation, kitchen scraps go into my garden beds. I buy live earthworms to live in my gardens, I grow legume cover crops in the fall and winter until it freezes(December here), and then they become compost and get more garden soil on them for the spring crop. Cow manure, any grass eating animal manure, sawdust, cardboard, plain paper not heavily inked, can all be used to decompose and feed the soil. Legume off season crops add nitrogen to the soil. I always grow beans in my garden the first season I use it to nitrogenate the soil for the next seasons crop. I don’t grow anywhere near the amount farmers grow, not even enough to completely feed myself, more like a treat for me to eat fresh home grown crops at harvest time. But there are ways to grow food without using huge amounts of chemical fertilizers. The reason they need all that fertilizer is because they have ruined the soil already with fertilizers, do not put organic content back into the soil, and grow the same thing all the time, and just keep on dumping more and more chemicals in the soil, making the stuff they grow have less and less nutrition than it did even 50 years ago. If the USA would stop shipping food out of the country, there will be plenty enough for Americans to eat, my primary concern. We need to stop worrying about feeding other countries. Learn how to grow responsibly and in harmony with the soil, and we will have plenty to eat even with higher fuel prices.
Thank you, Lau. The coming climate crisis is a force multiplier…
“El Niño is developing at a quicker pace than initially anticipated in the Pacific Ocean, with increasing probabilities that it could evolve into an exceptionally powerful event — a rare ‘Super’ El Niño — by fall or winter.” —CNN
Summarizing expert warnings, Futura notes ECMWF’s May update now sees a 100% probability of a super El Niño forming by November, with central Pacific temperatures projected to exceed 3°C above average, “a level of oceanic heat not seen since the historic 1877 event.” Huffington Post UK
“Researchers are worried about the implications this could have on worldwide weather systems, particularly the possibility that 2027 might emerge as the hottest year on record.” —BBC
What makes you think that there is a climate crisis? The IPCC, which is prominent in the climate change discussion, doesn’t say that, and in fact the worst case scenario RCP8.5 is now considered implausible
Yes, I foresee problems. Most anyone with their eyes wide open sees the same future for food that I do.Those who are missing it are confused. Or leading with their elbows.

Sadly many of the farms do not have cattle or hogs anymore due to the extra work they involve. No animals equals very little manure.
Food prices won't be affected until the fall due to fertilizer shortage.
Something more nefarious and widespread is at play.

That’s exactly what they’re starting to do. They’re shifting to manure & local biological materials. It’s not all doom & gloom.

Like in most cases, its probably just the lowest hanging fruit (excuse the pun)

What happened to global warming?

Controlled global demolition of the population.
Yes, it's not looking good. 500M's the target apparently.
People adapt.
The ones who survive, yes.
I’m referring to the farmers. They’re switching to biological sources & local supplies. It’s going to kick off regenerative ag
Corn is poison GMO
That’s why it’s good to use it for ethanol, since I would rather not eat it.
Thank you, Lau. The coming climate crisis is a force multiplier…
