In case you have not yet seen them before reading this:

This article was good timing, as I had been planning to create a somewhat similar chart, myself

 

And Dr. Spencer's article could not have been better timing, however I think it was deliberate after he saw the above article Oh no. The Arctic IS Melting!I have in my possession a copy of one of the most authoritative books ever written on Arctic sea ice, including a section on the warming of the Arctic. It is written by one of the pioneering researchers in Arctic sea ice, N.N Zubov, a Russian, who spent his career studying the Arctic region.

His observations of warming in the Arctic, which he described as not localized, but universal, are taken from his book entitled Arctic Ice. I have excerpted several pertinent passages, which I’m sure will convince you that warming of the Arctic can scarcely be denied:

Along with the fluctuations in ice abundance in each individual sea from year to

 

So I Had to post that one, too.

 

History is an Inconvenient Truth for AGW True Believers. They would prefer that we never looked at it, lest we see things they claim never happened before evil white Christian capitalists supposedly began to 'poison' the world with CO2.

 

Enough of that.

 

The feeling has been slowly growing in me, that I need to spend more time, much more, with Jenn, and with my Lir, ie, science-fiction writing. I'm moving towards that goal, slowly.

But, I need to get one more big set of climate pieces finished. And I'll never really stop posting the information which True Believers choose to ignore / label fraud / have hysterics over / demonize me for.

Cause Da Truth is Out There ;)

 

I do have to wonder, though: how do the spouses of writers, manage to put up with them banging away at the keys so many hours of the day, every day, on and on... I really want to find out.

 

No new entries (at least in the journal!) until after the trip.

I think Gaelic is a beautiful language and you did a grand job of the translations.

Thank you so much! I just hope that I got the original Gaelic correct, though.

I think I have a few...

Start a compost pile (they sell composters at the hardware stores, or places like Canadian Tire, if you happen to be on this side of the border.). All your veggie scraps can go into it. If you have rabbits or anything that eats grass, you can compost their poop :P
When I still lived at home 30 years ago, I used to go to the grocery store and haul off all the veggie trimmings and rotten fruit which they would be throwing out. Not sure if that is allowed any more...

The compost, any spare peat moss you can find, maybe a bit of sand... dig that all over into the soil, to help make it soft. Still working on our garden, but one end of it is now so soft I can dig it by hand. That's where we plant potatoes, or carrots, anything that grows underground. It will take several years to do over the whole garden like that.

Give yourself at a good 18 inches to 2 feet between rows, you will need room to move between them for harvesting and weeding.

Stagger the planting. If you have a package of bean seeds, for example, only plant about 1/4 of the row to start, and then another 1/4 a few weeks later, and so on. Same for most things you might plant. Then you don't have your food all coming due at the same time.

How's that for starters? *g*
