Well-Engineered Ecosystems Bounce Back
by Brian Thomas, M.S.*
How fast can a disaster zone bounce back? Apparently, faster than previously thought. Yale University ecologists conducted a meta-analysis of 240 studies of devastated ecosystems. They found that ecosystems damaged by pollution can be restored in as few as 10 years. Why then was it believed they would take so much longer to recover?...

All the enviro-whackos need to spend billions of taxpayer dollars to give them legitimacy.

The part of Mt. St. Helen I saw was still pretty devestated. I wish I had my pictures in this computer to share. It was really eerie.

Yup, they do fine if we just let nature do its thing, rather than meddling in a process that knows more about what it’s doing than we do.
Take “global warming” for instance. Despite all the hysteria over “excessive CO2”, the Earth is dealing with it nicely: being PLANT FOOD, that uptick in CO2 is being countered by MORE TREES (a _lot_ more) growing, reproducing, and sucking that CO2 out of the atmosphere.

Thanks for the daily laugh! It’s rare to see such a leap to unwarranted conclusions.
