Our urban yard is a mixture of flowers, fruit trees, vegetables and shade trees. I couldn't survive long on what we produce but it's means more to me than a manicured landscape would.

Hello Jeffrey V.

I find that some of the issues and articles that you cover are part of the globalist New World Order agenda! You know the ones who always create the problems then ask for more power to fix them.

The reason for the post is to counter all the lies from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. I don't want to give the private banks and corporations who are investing in this malthusian fictitious international carbon market any more of my money based on lies!!!...do you?

"climate chaos???"

Our earths climate is relatively calm. You must go back before us to see "climate chaos."

Just curious have you looked into any systems of control or manipulation in regards to climate?

Hyperdimensional climate change?

PEACE

I've about given up on the idea of spurring a good conversation or any kind of action out of this group. I'll keep visiting and posting ideas and comments from time to time, but my energy is going more and more into local projects and other conversations. Depressing, because this seems like such a good forum for that kind of exploration.

Hey Jeffery V,

Hope you don't mind that I snipe at you posts from time to time. I'm a bit of a contrarian. Love that you keep putting interesting things up there. Bothered that you get so few comments. Seems a bit facebooky to me.

EEW. Wanna hear something gross? Scientists from the University of Minnesota have successfully created a beating heart in a lab. They used a process called "decellularization" in which the hearts were taken from newborn rats and stripped of their cells. The resulting non-living mass, called an extracellular matrix or ECM, contains no cells and therefore will not be rejected by its new owners. New muscle and endothelial cells are then injected into the ECM and stimulated electrically.

When will they realize we're supposed to Die?
