I did read it. But the bottom line is there are more trees on earth now than there were 35 years ago.

Yes, I understand it’s not old growth forest and I too agree that protecting natural forests like the Amazon, Congo, Pacific NW, etc is paramount to ensuring the planet is healthy. I’m a huge proponent of incentivizing integrated and regenerative farms vs mono crop industrialized farms.

I’m also not ideologically handcuffed to not be able to see that there is more plant biomass on the earth today than there was 35 years ago. That’s a good thing.

Humans were better versed in more disciplines back in history than we are today, but we are better in our specialities, on the hole, than the ancients were.

the article literally is telling you that the greening being done is not as able to “provide ecological services” as is the forest canopy being destroyed. How is that a good thing?

I don’t believe you read the article. Sorry

Peace out. I’m not doing Winter this year. Every year it gets worse and worse. I remember back 20 years ago the wood in my wood rack lasted all year and the fire was merely a decoration on the weekend. That power failures, generator maintenance and owning candles and alternate heat sources have become a thing now with its own storage area in my shop. That most people now not only have a generator and a backup (or whole home generac) but they have backup internet and most of their vehicles are 4wd. Most of us have invested in multiple chainsaws and added grapples to our tractors to clear the shear volume of trees and debris each year. And that’s just for the 3-4 days out of 4-5 years we have ice storms. But in the olden days decades ago we rarely had ice storms and multiple days of freezing temps.

It wouldn’t be so bad if we knew what specific week the Winter storm would be, but having to be ready from Christmas to Mardi Gras is unsettling. Let’s just pick a random day in late January or a February and agree on it. That way we can all get prepared for those few days of frigid like normal people and just fly to the Caribbean? It’s cheaper than all the winterizing / bullshite we have to do.

Last year we went through all that ice storm and it happened exactly 1 week before our trip to Cancun. The week we were down there, it was 80 degrees and sunny all week in Louisiana. That was inconsiderate as hell of El Niño or whoever, and I’m not dealing with him this year. I’m done.

It’s been pretty disappointing here in Houston. I was expecting way more rain.

This Super El Niño was a dud

Certainly. Slowly over long periods of time sans a significant even like volcano or astroid...or burning shitloads of stored carbon for the last 100 years.
