Global Warming Will Increase U.S. Crop Yields, New Study
Contrary to previous analyses, new research published by Michigan State University shows that projected changes in temperature and humidity will not lead to greater water use in corn. This means that while changes in temperatures and humidity trend as they have in the past 50 years, crop yields can not only survive – but thrive. —Michigan State University, 16 May 2018
Developing Nations Can’t Afford To Go Cold Turkey On #Coal
This pressure on developing nations to deploy renewable energy solutions they cannot afford is both political and financial. The UK and international organizations such as the European Investment Bank and the World Bank stopped funding coal plants in developing countries. The consequences of this overly restrictive policy? Developing countries remain in the dark, increasingly frustrated by what India’s chief economic adviser termed the West’s “carbon imperialism”. Investment in coal-powered plants in African countries could mean the difference for millions of people between being able to turn on the lights at night or living in darkness. — Colin Stevens, EU Reporter, 25 May 2018
New Study: Urbanization Bias Makes China’s Early Warm Period Colder And Recent Warm Period Warmer
A study of the effects of urbanization bias on Chinese temperature trends was carried out using the new updated version of the Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN) – version 4 (currently in beta production). It is shown that there are relatively few rural stations with long records, but urbanization bias artificially makes the early warm period seem colder and the recent warm period seem warmer.
British Energy Firms On The Brink Of Collapse, Reveals Report
Half of Britain’s energy suppliers face an existential risk after the “Beast from the East” tore through the balance sheets of the industry’s small players. Thousands of energy customers could be left in limbo due to a high risk that around 10 of the most fragile suppliers are on the brink of going under. —The Sunday Telegraph, 27 May 2018
Another Renewables Plan That’s Gone Up In Smoke
In his Clean Air Strategy, launched last week, the environment secretary indicated that various types of stoves would have to be taken off the market because the amount of soot they produce sends too many of us choking into an unnecessarily early grave. It’s all very confusing. For years we have been actively encouraged by the government to switch our domestic fuel supply to wood, on the grounds that it is much less damaging “to the planet” than burning fossil fuels. —The Sunday Times, 27 May 2018
But the hardcore Greens want to bring end to agriculture in America some people are dumb enough to beleive that Animal Agriculture is wreckig the enviroment never mind the fact that livestock have been on earth for eons according to the vegan idiots cows are worst then a Forest(Wild)Fire

Too bad it’s cooling.
And in California they cut off water to the farmers over some worthless 3 inch fish(Delta Smelt) just like the Tennesee Valley Authority over the stupid Snail Darter these Eco-Nazis/Watermelons want America to look like third world nation just like most all Liberals/Communists want to do
