Obama and friends are going to bring famine and blame it on global warming.
Follow the money trail.
I think the ruling elite already knew that the Sun was too quiet and that a cooling trend (along with loss of growing season and crops) was coming.
That is why they had the cap and trade to begin with. To take the money away from the peons who won’t survive anyway and give it to the ruling elite so they can better prepare and survive the panic that will hit the public when they find out .
Got carrots, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, lettuce, spinach, onions and shallots going in my greenhouse now. More lettuce, spinach and broccoli coming in than I know what to do with....country boy can survive......
I'm starting up a popsicle farm.
1. Global Warming is Bunk, Total Scam
2. There is an effect on weather patterns (certainly variability) during sunspot minimums and maximums.
3. The UN is ALWAYS wrong about everything. They pretend to understand things to grab power and money. Total Frauds.
4. For 200 years there has been evidence of crop yields (wheat) are tied to sunspot activity.
5. We are just beginning to come out of the longest sunspot minumum in my lifetime.
6. Reduced crop yields and cold weather could affect world grain/food prices. Spot varibilities are going to happen, they always have.
7. Right now, the global Ag companies are taking full advantage of the situation. And with the adoption of PVPA they are contributing to the effect.
8. The Senate passed S.510 FDA Food Safety (Takeover) Bill during the Lame Duck Session. It was passed by the Senate because someone convinced them that Al-Quida intends to poison our food supply. They probably do plan that, but the dummies in DC have devised a solution that will in my opinion add 25-50 percent to the cost of food in the U.S. More paperwork, more reporting, more government control. What they need to encourage is local production. We are exposed to such attacks by produce we must import from the tropical climates and cannot be produced in the U.S.

But as they say:
“Chicken Little the Sky is not really Falling.”
Oh, and I need some popsicle sticks for seed stock.
Anyone save their popsicle sticks?
Parsnips in the garden will be fine when the ground thaws in the spring.
You underestimate the power of Chicken Little to turn some reduced crop yield into a world-wide disaster, for personal benefit.
(and Merry Christmas to you!)
On to practical things. Here is a good link to bookmark, and refer to at intervals, of the prices of common commodities, like wheat, corn, sugar, coffee, and cocoa. The little variable graph at the top is great, because you can see how the prices of these things have individually tracked over the course of the last month or last year.

Since the prices are all going up, it shows that inflation is on the way, especially for weather dependent things like food crops. Eventually these price increases will have to show up in the grocery stores.
And if you see them coming, you can buy ahead.
Importantly, what they can’t show you are shortages. If these happen naturally, they will be factored in.
But if they happen because of speculation, there will be little warning. That is, suddenly prices will double or triple, at the same time there are overnight shortages in the stores.
This is the difference between inflation and hyperinflation.
Inconceivable!
LOL
typically in central Indiana we get snow but then a meltoff and it cycles thru the winter.
this year on Dec 1 it went cold and nothing’s melted
the snow is piled up like it does in N. Michigan
I wondering if the Obama’s are pondering this fate while eating kobe beef today?
I doubt it.
He was absent from school the day they discussed how a blast furnace works and skipped Physics altogether.
We are going about this all wrong.
I propose the Free Republic anti-pollution council. Our mission is to reduce pollution on the planet by 1) going after the biggest polluters on the planet and 2) bringing cleaner energy to the planet.
This will be done by fining the biggest polluters on the planet by imposing a 1000% tax on all imports by nations deemed to be the top polluters.
This means the Saudis, Venezuela, China, India, Russia, Mexico, and other countries that throw the most pollution into the environment.
There will be no credits and only countries that convert to clean energy within five years, regardless of type are exempt.
Now, let’s get those clean coal, oil and gas extraction companies going, open up our land to drilling, defund the EPA and sue every environmental group that tries to stop us.
And another benefit will be with some of the profits, desalinization plants will be built in Africa with infrastructure so that crops can be grown and people could drink clean water. That would open up new economies and people will arise from poverty without the US handing money to the UN to pay off dictators.
With crops being grown throughout Africa, Carbon Dioxide can be converted to Oxygen by plant life which according to the left will fix global warming.
Win win and paid for by China. Now that’s poetic justice.
Can I move by you?
My friend of years has been going to his family wheat farm in Canada for forty years and said he has never seen the weather like it has been getting in the last three years. Cold and wet. The farmers are geowing what they can and are barely getting a harvest in. My friend has always said we had better hope we are having global warming and not cooling because crops don’t grow when it is too cold...especially wheat.
