Crops don’t grow without warmth and sunlight. Global warming is not the threat to food production that global cooling would be. Naturally, the feckless “experts,” who live off grants from even more feckless governments around the globe, will be the last to figure it out.

Actually that's only partially true. European famines were primarily the result of trying to grow grains in an uncooperative climate. By the end of the little ice age they had finally moved away from crops that just didn't work to crops that did well in cool wet summers. Today we have the advantage of far more tolerant strains of corn and wheat etc. We also have the advantage of their mistakes.

As far as my gardening goes, I've gone back to the things I learned from my great grandmother. I'm planting a garden full of fast producers that produce more than one crop per summer. Durable producers that can overwinter in the ground and greens that are tolerant of cool wet summers.

The last couple of years have been disasterous for growing tomatoes in Michigan. I'm still growing them but they're going in pots so they can come inside if need be.

The feckless “experts” will still blame it on AGW, or Man-Made Climate Change, or Humanity Is a Virus Infecting the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia, or capitalism, or George W. Bush.
