I spent a Christmas in Australia.


There was a Cyclone

It was the first time I had to drive in Cairns, because everyone else was still drunk and I had to take scenic routes to go around and through flood waters

If he had a different colour one he could say whatever he likes

Doesn't stop it being true, what you said

[Kiwi Pete]

f**k me

everyone’s a bit touchy tonight . . .

What did I miss?
Should I venture into "ignored content" or is it really not worth the hassle

Or was it something I said?

 

[Farmer Roy]

@holwellcourtfarm ,@Kiwi Pete ,@Farmer Roy ,@hendrebc ,@onesiedale ,@Agrispeed .

Which is the best video out there to explain the fact that managed grazed livestock sequester more carbon than trees?

Also is there a video explaining how trees take in and store less carbon as they get older?

The guy I cycle with is in some of the policy making loop advising organisations and government on the environment.
He was surprised when I educated him in the fact that trees are really not that great at locking up carbon.

I just want some videos to forward to him to explain the points.

Spoilt for choice, however most of them are "foreign" and that can often be a problem in terms of your mate actually seeing past "what they're doing" to "why they're doing that for"

In short, most of us from GB or of British descent aren't actually really achieving very much "good" other than having the place looking tidy and scraping by
Every bale we cut could have been 6 bales if we left it growing instead of taking it away and sitting it on some concrete somewhere, it takes a big leap to realise this sort of simple farmer behaviour often puts us well into carbon deficit as an operation - but if you mention "change" then it scares the crap out of folk

Anything by Greg Judy or Allen Williams is usually acceptable because their grass is green not brown, brown grass tends to scare and turn off farmers but your mate might be OK

 

[Kiwi Pete]

nah, it was me

Excellent news; I dread clicking "show ignored content" sometimes, so I won't bother seeing what that pedant twit is bleating on about just yet -otherwise you'll catch me on the depression thread after

Pete , it was the residents of her Majesty's not so great Britain having a meltdown over the "b" word.... I think being an even bigger political laughing stock than what we were is getting to them

I'm sure we can vie for the wooden spoon, ya know?

Woeful, woeful state of affairs, roll on poll day and we will still have fu/ck all to vote for as far as a leader goes

If equestrian gets in for a second term, I'm actually considering emigration to Brazil
