Anyone who thinks they have an accurate prediction of world wide weather patterns for the next 100+ years is delusional. We use supercomputers to guess weather patterns for next year and still miss the mark as often as we get it right. The local meteorologist has problems figuring out if it"s going to rain tomorrow and makes forecasts based on percentages of accuracy.

I do think both sides have a point. Earth has gone through long term patterns of heating and cooling that have so far been completely out of human control. Whether the next change is in the offing is a fairly safe prediction because those of us that heard it won"t be around long enough to confirm its accuracy.

The flip side is we have about 6.7 billion people putting a lot of junk in the air, ground and water. We have to live with what we dump in our back yard and what our neighbor dumps in his. The Chinese are burning coal as fast as they can pull it out of the ground. The air quality in their cities is getting so bad they took steps to minimize pollution prior to the Olympic games to avoid embarrassment. By the way, global weather patterns bring what the Chinese pump into the air our direction.

If we want to continue to use heavy metals, pesticides, burn coal and drive our cars, we ought to at least do what we can to minimize the negative impact - regardless of whether we actually have the ability to change long term weather patterns.

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th ... [Read Article]
