Mag6240 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) We have planted thousands of trees over the years. We used to put 4-500 pine trees a year in at our family’s 80 acres many years ago. They are about ready for harvest… LOL Edited July 19, 2023 by Mag6240 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a lot of questions here republicans... a LOT!!!! I've heard it all now. Let's not plant tree's because they might start on fire. And more trees could even increase the risk of wildfires by serving as fuel in a warming world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mag6240 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 What this warming planet needs is a good sized volcanic eruption or three... Spew a few thousand what ever terms they want to use to measure the ash going into the sky to block some percentage of the sun for a few dozen years... Problem solved! If this planet is warming like they claim it is, I have no doubt this will naturally occur.... weird huh?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can send you a five gallon bucket of these. solar panels? in the neighborhood I grew up in there were about 40 homes surrounded by farmland and woods. early 2000's a couple developers bought up every available parcel and built 400+ homes... destroying my childhood stomping grounds. I'm sad everytime I go through there. a trend we've been seeing is when ma and pa pass away, kids don't want to run a farm and a year or two later... subdivision. green space is good space.
