Climate deniers!!!!
You can’t see the Cities for the Trees
On my tiny 5 acres it’s a battle every summer to keep the trees cut back.
More “climate change” bullshit. Setting us up for more carbon dioxide song, and dance routine. I saw it in the headline, but read the article anyway until it got to “Global Warming”, and I stopped to make this note.
Mechanized agriculture should be thanked for the reforestation of southern Pennsylvania and northern Maryland.
I’ve see many pictures from the 1890’s-1920’s showing nearly treeless landscapes in areas which now are covered with thick woodlands.
Mule teams could plow, plant, and harvest on slopes too steep for Johnny Poppers.
Earth first!
Log the other planets later.
So many trees.
So little time.
Kind of like spending several hundred million dollars of taxpayer money to launch a satelite to detect greenhouse gas emissions to confirm Man made global warming, only to find out the the by far largest producer of greenhouse gasses is ROTTING VEGITATION from the rain forests...
Trump’s fault...
Could it possibly be that CO2 is not a pollutant?
Next I suppose you’re gonna tell me those trees are absorbing g CO2...
Maybe the higher levels of CO2 had something to do with it?
The one fly in the ointment here may be that forest losses are greatest in tropical rainforest areas, while gains are in more temperate areas. Tropical areas would tend to crank out more oxygen, I would think?
Paging Al Bortion...
Quotation: “With over 240 million planted trees, Israel is one of only two countries that entered the 21st century with a net gain in the number of trees.”
Just curious: what is the other country.? Thanks in-advance
there may be new growrh but the fires burned homes, critters and people. get your priorities straight.
All that new carbon dioxide has to go somewhere. As carbon dioxide levels rise, vegetation growth accelerates. It is not rocket science.
Bur you are right, the Sierra Club won’t be advertising this fact anytime soon.
The greatest deforestation in history occurred in North America. Pre Colombian North America was 100% forested from the great plains eastward ti the Atlantic. Now this huge land area is barely 50% forested, if that.
I remember about 25 years ago when my wife asked if she could donate to a "save the rain forests" deal...I told her that as soon as she allowed them to dictate what we did with our own yard and landscaping, she could donate all she wanted. She has since bolstered her Conservative credentials by becoming a lot more aware of how the Left works.....and she is right more often than I am...(I had to say that so she doesn't shoot me....)....
