These bureaucracies the people in charge that take no responsibility for their actions, or devoid thereof) clearly have a lack of foresight for the future when it comes to the food sovereignty of our nationthe country that once fed the world. In the years ahead, if the obvious trends acting against american agriculture are not reversed, and I mean soon, I am forced to question if we will even have the ability to feed our own population? Personally I belive our days are numberedalthough someone else’s millage may vary, especially in the states with large populations who are not blessed to have the ag resources like we do in Montana. What a great learning opportunity?? Are you aware of two of the most important issues that young people have today? Gun violence and climate change. Did you discuss those two issues? What, exactly, would a carpetbagger born and raised in California, know about Montana agriculture? www.thedailybeast.com/fox-news-host-harris-faulkner-caught-telling-whopper-about-1918-pandemic 7 counts for Trump. Not many years needed for that to be a life sentence. At least they have Ketchup in prison. East coast friends! The fires in Canada: have nothing to do with forest management. That is a lame excuse!! And it is a big timber lie!!! Reality? If Fox was a real news channel they would tell the truth about global warming. If Republicans were not Odalisques for big timber: they would tell you the truth! Let’s review. 1. Canada’s boreal forest is part of the world’s largest forest ecosystem. 2. Fire is a natural tool in drier forests to burn underbrush and make soul! 3. Of all forest biomes, boreal forests are experiencing the most significant warming. Drought caused by warming has a dramatic impact on species in boreal forests!!! 4 This is not a normal cycle. Humans pump 25 BILLION TONS of CO2 into the air yearly. Volcanoes? 300 million tons! 5. Boreal forests need cold winters to kill beetles. The winters are warming. 6. Drought, Stressed trees are ravaged by beetles. Then: burn! Bark beetles are native denizens of the boreal forest and are always present in low numbers. Successful outbreaks are fueled by a ready supply of host trees and a consecutive series of warm summers, warm temperatures allowing the beetles to complete their life cycle in one year rather than two. THIS IS NOT an issue of forest management. Clearcutting trees and planting tree farms makes fires WORSE! 7. After a clearcut, planting trees of the same age and species results in a forest that burns hotter and faster than the diverse forests they replace. Timber companies and lobbyists will sometimes claim that clearcutting land reduces fuel for wildfires – but it’s not true. Wake up: we are trashing our children’s future!!! Say’s the Senator who doesn’t know the front of a plow from the end. He knows how to assign blame, to accuse, and to dodge issues.
